Pilot Error Causes Reds To Capture 4

Two American diplomats report a pilot error caused a light two engined plane with U S generals aboard to land in Soviet Armenia six days earlier. The four men are detained near the border in Leninakan amid comfortable conditions and light interrogation. The pilot said a freak gust drove the unarmed plane across the border and a mistaken landing occurred near Seninakan airport. The Soviet notes to the U S and Turkey protested the unlawful intrusion, calling it a direct result of U S military activity near the Soviet Union. The two generals are Maj Gen Edward C D Scherrer and Brig Gen Claude McQuarrie Jr. The pilot is Maj James P Russell.
