@ Fatal Flying Accidents
Blamed on CareIessness

Flagrant disregard Of common
sense flying rules was the major
cause of 10 fatal accidents analyzed
In the reports transmitted by the
Air Safety Board in June, the Civil
Aeronautics Board announced yes
terday. On June 80 the functions of
the Air Safety Board were trans
ferred to the Safety Bureau of the
new Civil Aeronautics Board. All
but few of the accidents for which
reports were made in June occurred
within the last few months of 1899,
or the first six months of 1910.
Here are a few examples of the
reckless disregard of flying rules
cited by the Board: Two fatal acci-
,, dents occurred when pilots flew their
planes into hillsides during aerial
coyote hunts. Fourteen fatal
crashes were the result of reckless
stunt flying, for the most part by
inexperienced pilots, at attitudes far
below the 1.500 feet minimum fixed
by the regulations. A student~was
killed while distributing circulars
over a city from height of less
than $50 feet above the house tops.
Three flights ended in fatalities
when pilots insisted on pushing
through adverse weather conditions
without proper training, or equip
ment. ....
The domestic airlines operating in
interstate commerce continued to
maintain a fine record, the board
pointed out, having flown for the
18th consecutive month without a
fatality to passengers or crew.
Evening star., 1940-07-21

stable and in summer still other
strings of saddle horses are brought
into the Rangeley area.
What applies to Portland, as a
riding center, is more or less true
of the Lewiston-Aub area; also
OF Augusta. There are three per-
manent saddle stables in lewiston
Auburn and in Farmingdale (be-
tween Augusta and Gardiner) the
Kennebec Valley Riding Club keeps
the horses most active. At VIM
throp in Maranacook Lake, at Bel
grade Lakes and at Lakewood sad
die horses are handy.
Developed Famous Trail.
In Bangor is the home of the
Bangor Boot and Saddle Club, a
group of enthusiasts that developed
and opened to public use the now
famous horseback trail from Bangor
to Chesunceok Village. The club
also maintains a branch stable at
Lucerne-in-Maine each summer.
In Aroostook County. at Caribou
and Presque Isle, are groups who
revel in carefree cowboying about a
great open country. AS those in
Bangor venture to Katahdin to the
northwest their equestrian fellows to
the north blaze their trails to the
same wilderness region to the south
west.
