Back in the mid 30's the above twin engine plane once soared the skies of Calauag delivering payroll money for sawmill employees working for Don Tomas. Above picture on the right   is Arturo (Turing ) Morato' who piloted the said aircraft.
 
There used to be an improvised airstrip somewhere in the area of   barangay Pinagbayanan almost adjacent to where the sawmill and plywood plant  was located.  While it was the intention of Don Tomas to provide an airstrip for the safe and fast delivery of payroll money to his employees,  his  eldest son Arturo ( at that time was also pursuing his flying career ) asked his father to push through with this plan and that he would volunteer to transport the payroll money to Calauag by himself. However the idea of maintaining an airstrip didn't take long and for some reasons,  the project had been abandoned.
