Thursday, June 7, 1962 Sec. 1 1 - 6 Pages Navy Jets to Fly Low-Level Route Rear Admiral William A. Stuart, USN, Commander Fleet Air, Whidbey Island, Wn has announced that beginning the latter part of June or July, U. S. Navy A3D twin-jet bombers from NAS Whidbey Island, Washing ton, will begin their newly as signed low-level flying route dubbed "Tail Hook," over mid Oregon. Plans for this operation began in December, 1961, and has recently received approval of the Federal Aviation Agency Western Region in Los Angeles, Calif., and the Federal Aviation Agency in Washington, D. C. The low-level navi g a t i o n fliehls to be flown over this route are essential requirements in the combat training ot U. b. Navy A3D "Skywarrior" jet bomber crews. The A3D's will take off from Naval Air Station, Whidbey Island, and cross John Day, at 23,000 feet. About 20 miles south from John Day, the A3D's will descend and enter the "Tail Hook" route about 12 miles west of Riley, Oregon. The new route will carry the A3D's over Summer Lake and Fort Rock, then north erly to terminate at Boardman. The aircraft will fly between 500 and 1,000 feet above the terrain at airspeeds of approximately 320 miles per hour. This particular route was ap proved over others proposed be cause it provided the best train ing areas for all-weather, low level, day and night flight train ing missions. The A3D "Skywarriors" are used by all heavy attack squad rons based at NAS Whidbey Is- land. It is an all-weather and high altitude twin-jet bomber capable of delivering a variety of weapons in the aerial arsenal to any enemy military target on the globe. The A3D can operate from land bases or the flight "-"yT '' ""T1"""" WASHINGTON " I 1 . k'fN0 J "CONDON hm ' . J i '' l JOHN MY f " - V - .imm .. ''. ... . ..

Before the pilots and crew members of A3D's are qualified to deploy aboard the aircraft carriers, they receive day and night heavy attack training such as radar bombing, navi gation and carrier landing prac tice at NAS Whidbey. The forty ton "Skywarrior" is the largest naval jet aircraft ever to operate at sea and the "Sunday Punch" of task force operations. Thus the excellent training that can be given in the North west guarantees the Sunday Punch. lone Eastern Star1 To Install June 12 IONE Public Installation for the Locust Chapter of Eastern Star, lone, will be held on June a lor the following officers re cently placed into office.
