Private Use
Methods of traffic control for
private planes using the Klamath
Falls Municipal Airport after the
activation of the Air Force let
Interceptor base were discussed
Wednesday night at a meeting of
city officials, Air Force officials
and private pilots.
The meeting, held at the pilots'
louuee at the airport, was spon
sored by the Klamath Air Search
and Rescue Unit.
The main objection, made by
both private pilots and crop dust
ers, was against the requirement
that all planes using the airport
must be equipped with two-way
radio for contact with the control
tower. The objectors claimed that
other airports used as bass for
both private and military Jot air
crnit did not have such require
ments. .
EXAMPLES CITED
Examples cited were Boise. Port

Of KF Airport
Mayor Paul Landry stated that
the Air Force had demanded the
radio requirement be included In
the lease from the beginning, and
said that the reason advanced was
the safety problem of very high
speed J6ls and very low speed
private planes in the same air.
Lt. Col Robert Larson, Air Force
senior project officer at the base,
said he was unable to change the
requirement, but that if th'e pilots,
the city and local Air Force of
ficials, could agree on a recom
mended system, he would be glad
to submit lt to higher authorities.
Crop dusters indicated that they
could not equip their planes with
radios because oi the weight prob
lem and the corrosive nature of
the cnemicals they carried. How
ever, one duster pilot admitted
that dusters constituted a "special
case," and said that there were
not many duster planes which used
the field. ,
TOWER OPERATION
A Civil Aeronautics Administra
tion official present said that the
CAA, which -would operate the
i tower, would not deny a plane the
privilege of landing because of lack
of a radio "because you never
know what's going on In the plane"
and that the enforcement of radio
requirements would be up to the
city.
He said that equipment to trans-

Discussed
mlt light signals to non-radio
equipped aircraft would be In
stalled at the tower.
Mayor Landry said that the Air
Force's decision to lease a part
of the field had taken a "white
elephant" off the city's hands, and
that a profitable airport would en
able the city to provide better
service for all pilots private,
commercial and military using
the field. ,
He said 'that "we are genuinely
Interested in keeping all of you
operating here," and added, "I
hope we don't have to kill a few
people to find out what is good
for us."
ALSO DISCUSSED'
Also discussed at - the meeting
was a proposal for runway barriers
to be installed by the Air Force
on the long runway, which wili
be 10,000 feet when the present
extension program Is completed.
Private pilots expressed approval
of the device, which would provide
a means to keep Jet planes which
overshot the runway or had brake
trouble from going off the end of
the runway.
. Robert Moore, local station man
ager for West Coast Airlines, said
that the aircraft used by his com
pany probably -would "land long"
and not use the full length of the
runway. The barrier, he said,
would not interfere with this pro
cedure. Larson said that the device would
be located on the "over-run" at
the end of the runway, and that
that portion of the runway would
be marked to indicate the presence
of the device. He said there were
several types of barrier, and that
he did not know which type would
be installed here.
KASRU President Ed Scholer
named Dave Zumwalt as the chair
man of a three-man committee to
study problems of the relationship
of private fliers to the Air Force
and methods employed by other
airports to handle the problem.
Zumwalt is to report at the next
meeting of the organization.
