John Kenehan's list indicates that Jack Golz(?) was checked out May 1946. (NOTE: The "g" and the "f" are right next to each other on the keyboard. The name is "Folz". (Just not a pilot) Lots of confusion for me as I also have had a Jack Folty listed, per Oliver Glenn, as a "darned good, mechanic. In all lists of CNAC employees I only find; Jack Folz.

Oliver Glenn said this about his friend, Jack Folty: May 19, 2001 From Oliver Glenn "Jack Folty (aka "Folz") became a very good friend of mine when his wife, my wife and another pilot's wife came out to Shanghai together on the delivery flight of one of our six DC-4's. Since our wives became friends, Jack and I saw each other frequently. Several years later when we ran into each other in Los Angeles, we re-established our friendships. Jack was a Douglas Technical Representative on the A-20 bombers in the 7th Air Force in New Guinea. Besides being an excellent hammer and wrench mechanic, he was a good supervisor and got along wonderfully with our Chinese mechanics. All the work on our planes was done by the Chinese mechanics (and it was darned good), but the top supervision was done by about a dozen top grade extremely experienced American mechanics. In Los Angeles, in the 70's, 80's and 90's Jack and I got together over a Scotch on the rocks occasionally. He passed away in 1999 at about 86 or 87."
