Max was behind the publicity stunt that became the first flight of commercial freight. For $5,000, he hired novice aviator, Phil O. Parmelee to fly 200 pounds of silk (also reported as a single roll/boltof silk ribbon or 10 bolts of silk) from Dayton to Columbus. Parmelee landed the cargo at Driving Park.
Morehouse sold squares of the silk on postcards and made ties and women's something out of the silk. Reportedly nedding over $6,000, more than recouping his investment in the flight.
The Wright Company transported the first known commercial air cargo on November 7, 1910 by flying two bolts of dress silk 65 miles (105 km) from Dayton to Columbus, Ohio for the Morehouse-Marten Department Store, which paid a $5,000 fee. Company pilot Phil Parmelee made the flight—which was more an exercise in advertising than a simple delivery—in an hour and six minutes with the cargo strapped in the passenger's seat. The silk was cut into small pieces and sold as souvenirs.
