After the government took possession of the airport, Arnold moved to Groton, Massachusetts where he continued on as a civilian flight instructor for the U. S. Army Air Corp. It was during these years that he was approached by a young Alan Shepherd who asked if there was anything he could do for an airplane ride. After Arnold put the young Shepherd to work cleaning out an aircraft hanger, that he gave Alan Shepherd his first flying lesson. Years later, Arnold received a plaque from Astronaut Alan Shepherd commemorating his inspirational act. After the end of WWII, with the development of the Interstate Highway system, Arnold realized that it would not belong before the Daniel-Webster Airport would be forgotten in time. In 1945, he relocated his fleet of aircraft to Hollywood, Florida where he spent the remaining years of his career as the Industry leader and pioneer and innovator of banner towing under his business name Circle Aviation. After his retirement in 1970, he passed the business down to his son James Butler. Personal: Besides inspiring Astronaut Alan Shepherd and countless of military and civilian students he instructed, his interest in aviation has continued down through the generations influencing two of his siblings, Edmund Sidney Butler (d. 2012) an MIT graduate and retired Captain for Delta Airlines and Joanne Golding who as a private pilot managed the business offices of a flight school at Detroit City Airport. Additionally, Percy Lister (d. 2010) and Gaylord Golding (d.209) , his brother-in-laws, James Butler and James Butler Jr. His son and grandson, as well as Lynn (Golding) Seppi and Gary Golding, his niece and nephew, all owe their roots as pilots to Arnold Butler.
