Aging Plane Overweight in Colorado Crash Linked to Wichita State Trip
The FAA says an aging Martin 404 airliner may have been about 4,000 pounds overweight on its first post-mothball flight, contributing to a crash in the Rockies that killed 30. The same carrier’s other plane faced 16 maintenance defects and an emergency grounding. The incident followed a prior near-miss in Oklahoma City and points to regulatory gaps for universitychartered flights. Authorities note possible wrongdoing and call for safety checks across colleges.

Deadline Passes No Word From Canadian Kidnapers
In Montreal the deadline set by FLQ kidnappers for the ransom of James R. Cross passed with no contact from the group. Officials noted no new communications and the governments stated they are prepared to explore practical avenues out of the impasse. Cross, 49, Britain’s senior trade commissioner in Canada, was abducted Monday by FLQ members demanding 21 prisoners released and $500,000, with threats to execute Cross if demands are not met. The British and Canadian governments rejected the ransom demands and urged negotiation rather than capitulation.
