Air Force flying team charts tour
for South American flood will ’ display
By MICHAEL GETLER
<C) 1!>73, Washington Post
WASHINGTON — Air Force
officials said last week that a
month-long “good will” tour by
the Thunderbirds precision flying
team through Latin and South
America will cost about $700,000.
Aside from the four F-4
Phantom fighter-bombers that
the Thunderbird team uses to put
on its display of high-speed
precision flying, four other F-4s,
five four-engine KC-135 jet
refueling tankers and two four
engine C-130 transport planes are
accompanying the 81-man
operation.
The aerial acrobats were
scheduled to pul on air shows in
eleven countries. But Pentagon
officials said they have put a
“hold” on a show scheduled for
Sept. 25 in Santiago, Chile,
because of the overthrow of the
government there. Air Force
officials said they “seriously
doubt” that the Santiago show
would be held
Chile and Brazil are the two
largest countries on the tour and
both are prospective buyers for
new American military hard
ware, including the smaller and
less expensive F-5E fighter
F,arlier this year, the Nixon
administration lifted a previous
embargo on sales of the F-5E to
five Latin countries including
Chile and Brazil.
Officially, the Thunderbird’s
trip is not to sell hardware but to
promote good will in the area and
to demonstrate U.S. technical
know-how. But the main purpose
and justification for the Thun
derbirds as well as the Navy’s
Blue Angels Flight team — is to
attract recruits in this country to
a career in the military.
Because of the high costs of the
Latin trip (each F-4 also burns
approximately .2,000 gallons of jet
fuel per hour) and the recent
cancellation of the Blue Angel’s
performances for the rest of this
year due to several accidents,
there was considerable
“discussion” in the Pentagon
about the wisdom of sending the
Thunderbirds on the Latin tour.
There was also some feeling
that the Thunderbirds should
have taken over some of the Blue
Angels’ performances in this
country, and also some concern
• hat the trip abroad would be

French and Pacific nuclear tests;
maritime danger zone relaxed
AGENCE FRANCE-PRESSE
PARIS - The French Government today announced the end of
French nuclear tests in the Pacific.
The announcement that this year’s series of nuclear tests in the
Mururoa A'oil area, which started last July, had come to an end was
published in this morning’s issue of the Journal Officiel.
The announcement did not mention the tests specifically. It
merely said: “The suspension of maritime navigation in the French
Polynesia security zone will cease to have effect as from September 15
000 (CQ) hour Universal Time (midnight GMT Friday).”
The 1973 series of tests began on July 21. The five tests in the series
were of low yield and took place on July 21 and 28 and August 19, 25 and
28.
France has held a total of 52 tests since the first, which took place
in t he Sahara on Feb. 13, 1960. Of the 52, 17 were held in the Sahara and
the last 35 in the Polynesian area.
A decree signed by President Georges Pompidou in the July 8
Journal Officiel set up a 60-nautical-mile “safety zone” around
Mururoa Atoll. This was the first time since testing began in the
Pacific that such a decree was published. The French Government
claimed the decree made official their right to stop air and sea traffic
in an area outside a country’s territorial waters. During earlier test
series, the government simply notified seamen and pilots of a
“danger zone” to be avoided
This year’s tests were of a mini-bomb—probably the triggering
device for France’s themonyclear bomb which is to be operational by
1976.
Army Forces Minister Robert Galley gave no information on the
'ests, however. All news of the blasts and their approximate yield
came from the Australian and New Zealand Governments.
On the diplomatic level, the 1973 test series was the most con
troversial yet in the Pacific. There was considerable adverse reaction
of both domestic and world opinion.
The French government issued a “white paper” on June 28 to
argue for “the perfecting of a nuclear weapon necessary to its security
and independence through a very limited number of nuclear tests at
its Pacific test center.” The paper contained many technical,
scientific and legal addenda, which emphasized particularly the
minimized risk of atomic fallout due to the use of carrier-balloons in
the tests.
Several protest boats sailed in the test zone during the summer,
and some—The Greenpeace, for example—were boarded or taken in
low by the French Navy.
There was no information as to whether future blasts in the
Pacific would be triggered in underground sites.
