|CAA Rules Out
Use Of Airport
Here BY Jets
By CHARLES YARBROUGH

The Commerce Department to-
day said it has no plans to ex-
tend National airport's main
runawy to accommodate jet air.
liners.
In a press release issued short
ly before noon, Civil Aeronau-
tics Administrator Charles j.
Lowen, jr., declared mo such
plans are even under consider
alton by the CAA."
He said the CAA lis not pre-
pairing any request for funds in
the 1858 fiscal year budget for
lengthening runways at National
airport by filling in part of the
shallow waters Of the Potomac.
Proposal Often Made
Proposals Of a similar nature
have been made over a long pc
Rod of years, but the CAA has
discarded all Of them as being
non-feasible because of safety,
time. most and other factors"
Congress granted the CAA
some So million in last years
budget to improve fuel-handling
facilities, build high-speed turn
offs to help empty the runwayS
faster and to enlarge baggage
handling facilities. Some of that
work is under way now.
Another objection the CAA
had to the runway extension
proposal was that it would mix
jet aircraft with today's piston
engine planes. "And that" he
said, ''is something we do not
want to do unless we have to-at
National or at any other airport"
He said that "some day we
may have to receive jets at Ma
tional, but having them taking
off over Washington would be
lntolerable for the residents"
6,S55-FOOt Runway
Nationals main runway is
$685. feet long. The other two
are 5,210 and 1890 feet.
There is at least one Jet trans
port on the drawing board and
set for early 1859 delivery to
TWA Airlines, the Convair 808
that engineers say can use run
ways of 5000 feet.
The other two jet transports
on the horizon, the Boeing TOT
and the Douglas DC-8. could
operate their domestic versions
off some existing runways. The
intercontinental type jets, be-
cause of heavier fuel loads at
take-off, will require runwayS Of
10000 feet.
Problems Under Study
Meanwhile, Washington's air.
port problems were being con-
sidered on two fronts.
I /. The Civil Aeronautics Board
is considering Commerce Secre-
tary Weeks recommendation
that Baltimore's Friendship air.
port be considered to help re-
Ilieve the congestion at National.
He asked that it be named as an
alternate.
2. The Senate Appropriations
Committee momentarily is ex-
Ipected to hand down a decision
on President Eisenhower's re-
quest for $34.7 million for con-
struction of a second Washington
airport at Burke, in nearby Fair
fax County, Va.
