A blizzard in early 1947 kept some rural Brodhead residents snowbound for several days and unable to travel. Dr. Steussy of Brodhead hired Bill Earleywine of Bill's Air Park to fly him to area farms in his ski-equipped Taylorcraft to see his patients. They are pictured here before take-off from Brodhead Airport.
