I've received word from an old United pilot that they used to fly the
Metropolitans into Iowa City until 1959 or so. Anyone here ever flown
one?

Can anyone comment on how much runway this plane would have needed?

Also, anyone here ever fly for Ozark? They took over service into IOW
from United in '59, and flew into Iowa City until '72. I'm wondering what
kind of planes they flew into smaller airports like ours?

Thanks in advance!
