Diving 707 Jet
Fined by F.A.A.
NEW YORK, W) — The pilot
>f the jet airplane that took a
10,000-foot dive toward the At
antic last Tebruary has been
fined $1,000 by the Federal Avi
ation Agency for being. out of
the cockpit at the time.
Pan American World Airways,
the owner of the plane, was also
Lined $1,000 for failing to keep a
flight-recording device in opera
tion on the new 707 Boeing Jet.
The copilot, who was at the
controls when the plane suddenly
dived from 35,000 feet, was noti
fied of the government’s plans to
suspend his captain’s rating for
six months. The reason for the
suspension apparently was his
failure to stop the dive imme
diately.
The jet, with 114 passengers,
was flying from London to Gan
der, Nfld., February 3, when it
suddenly nosed down. The pilot,
Capt. W. Waldo Lynch, was in
the passenger compartment.
He and the copilot, Capt. S. T.
Peters, leveled the plane with dif
ficulty a mile in distance but only
a few seconds in time from almost
certain death in the ocean.
Lynch, a Pan-Am vice president
for communications; and Peters,
chief pilot of the Pacific-Alaska
Division, were among supervisory
personnel flying jets during a jet
boycott by union pilots in a wage
dispute.
