New Air Safety Rules Implemented Today
The Civil Aeronautics Board enforces new air safety regulations requiring all civil and military test flights to occur over open waters or sparsely populated areas designated by the Civil Aeronautics Administration. The rules follow the Jan crash near Pacoima California that killed eight people and spur from House Commerce Committee investigations. The Budget Bureau recommended adapting the Defense Department’s SAGE radar to also traffic control civil aviation. Congress funded a five year modernization plan, including 69 long range radar sites, short range airport surveillance at 44 airports, airport surface detection at 20 locations, and radar beacons at 134 locations between 1956 and 1961.
