up roadblocks such as those
that prevented non-strikers

Bird Threat to Jets
Held No Problem Here
BY CHARLES YARBRoUGH
Star STAFF Writer

Birds offered possible Tuesdays crash Of
prophet airliner at Bosons Logan airport particular
problem here-except in the hangers.
Shortly after the Eastern Air Lines plunged mys-
terousy into Boston Harbor Federal Aviation Administrator
Quesada suggested that planes engine air intakes
Evening star., 1960-10-09

may have become clogged as 1t
took of through an immense
fight of starlings.
The engines have not yet been
recovered from the harbor.
No Incident Here
Ingestion of foreign objects
into aircraft engine intakes, a
problem more particular to
pure jets, has never forced an
emergency at National Airport
and no such incidents could he
recalled by personnel at any of
the military bases here.
Storms will drive migrations
of sea gulls to National on oc-
casions, but apparently never
in sufficient quantity to create
a problem. While downtown
Washington, as most any pedes-
trian and motorist will know,
has a real startling problem.
National is troubled only in the
hangers. Any number of star
ling-frightening devices have
been tried, but to little avail.
At Andrews Air Force Base,
foreign objects have forced re-
moval of two engines in the
last six months. but officials
consider this rate almost nor
NAL. The objects which dam
aged the powerplants were un-
known.
Flights Of sea gulls on the
field and runways have caused
closing of the runway then in
use at New York's Idlewild four
times in less than a month and
once at LaGuardia.
Hazard to Jets
Pure jets, with air pouring
into the intakes at terrific
speeds. are more susceptible
than propeller planes, even if
the propellers are driven by
jet engines. as in the case of
the Electra.
An air intake on the pure
jet Boeing TOT, for example,
is "a. inches in diameter. In
the Electra, the almost oval
shaped intake is "a inches long
and 10 inches wide.
Screens are out Of the queS-
ton for at least two reasons.
They are ideal places for ice to
form. particularly at high
speeds. They could also create
some reduction in power.
Mr.. Quesada didn't pull his
possible solution to the Boston
crash out Of a hat.
Notices have been posted at
Logan International advising
airlines that the airport has a
sea gull problem-a problem
bad enough to draw meetings
Of the airport management, the
FAA, pilot representatives,
Fish and Wildlife Service and
the Audubon Society.
But Mr.. Quesada said he was
teld that the presence of star
lings at Logan was unprece-
dented. A hundred or more
dead starlings were found on
the runway the Inflated Elec-
ira used to take OF.
Replies to Byrne
The FAA yesterday released
the text of a letter Mr.. QUE
sada wrote the Massachusetts,

In substance, Mr.. Byrne was
quoted as saying the airlines
