Jet Hydraulic Improvements Bring Fewer Difficulties
Washington -IUPU- The Fed
ral Aviation Agency has re
ported a 50 per cent reduction
in hydraulic difficulties en
countered by jet airliners
since last summer.
The improvement resulted
from a massive FFA-industry
drive to cure numerous mal
functions that were causing
frequent precautionary and
emergency landings.
One such malfunction led to
a fatal accident involving a
United Air Lines DC8 at
Denver last July 11, killing 17
passengers. The Jet was mak
ing an unscheduled landing
after losing its hydraulic fluid
supply when it swerved off
the runway into narked
truck.
This was the only accident
resulting from hydraulic
troubles. But a rash of report
ed malfunctions, both minor
and major, prompted the joint
FAA-industry corrective pro
gram. That program, dubbed

Project 61" by the FA A,
called for:
-Nine modifications to the
DC8 hydraulic system, includ
ing a lock-out device to pre
vent engines from going into
uneven reverse thrust. This
was the cause of the fatal
swerve at Denver, occuring
when the pilot - lacking brak
ing power - attempted to
slow down the jet by revers
ing his engines.
-Stricter inspection and
maintenance procedures on
the hydraulic systems of all
jets.
-A special check on all
flight crews to make sure they
are following prescribed pro
cedures for dealing with hy
draulic emergencies.
-Faster, more frequent and
detailed reports by all airlines
on every conceivable type of
hydraulic malfunction, no
matter how minor. This en
abled the FAA and carriers to

"The rate of malfunctions
now is down to about the
level of piston engine air

said. "Considering the far

achievement."
He emphasized that the in

Atmospheric Test
Preparations Ready

said today preparations for
U.S. nuclear tests in the at

pleted and the first blast
might be set off about April
25.
The original target date
was May 1. But officials said

the tests might as well go
