Crash Attributed to

Poor Judgment of Pilot
WASHINGTON, UP)—A naviga
tional error and “poor judgment
by the pilot” probably caused the
crash of an Alaska Airlines trans
port plane near Blyn, Wash., last
March 2 with the loss of five lives,
the CAB said Thursday.
The plane, a C-54B, was en
route to Seattle on a nonstop
flight from Fairbanks when it
crashed.
The CAB said the pilot used
poor judgment in entering an
overcast in a mountainous area at
a “dangerously low altitude.”
