No Appropriation For Giant Plane
Washington AP The SST program head says the project remains in good shape after the House did not appropriate funds for the coming year. Maxwell director of the SST for the FAA says the decision was voluntary and that $186 million previously allocated but unused will keep the program going as Boeing revises designs. Airlines with down payments on 122 SSTs will meet Boeing officials next Tuesday to review the situation. He rejects foreign reports that undermine U S leadership and says some Congress members doubt the Concorde is real.
