Viet plane losses drop dramatically under bombing curb
U S aircraft losses over North Vietnam fell sharply after President Johnson limited raids to the southern Panhandle. Since March 31, 30 U S planes were listed as shot down, versus 133 in the same period last year. Missions rose to about 130 daily, while costs and fighter production were reduced. Pentagon officials say the tighter area delivers greater dividends as enemy infiltration shifts southward.
