Senators Study USAF Training
A Senate subcommittee reported it has been examining Air Force technician training methods and costs for months. The Air Force says under 10 percent of B29 accidents stem from maintenance errors, with eight B29 crashes at Randolph AFB since August 1950 after the crew training program began. The panel, led by Sen. Lyndon B. Johnson, is also reviewing training at Keesler, Sheppard, and Scott AFBs and a Stanford study on civilian training versus military schools. It notes recent base investments reduced the potential gains from civilian-contract training and cites two major investigations on air strength procurement and overseas base construction waste.
