Blame Told In Airliner Jet Collision
Washington investigators blamed lack of coordination between military and civilian flight controls for the Las Vegas area crash that killed 49 people. The House Appropriations Committee urged new procedures within 60 days to prevent military civilian airspace conflicts and suggested eventually a single civilian agency regulate airspace. The panel found no fault in navigational or traffic-control equipment, attributing the disaster to separate and unrelated control systems at Civil Aeronautics Administration and Nellis Air Force Base.
