The DC-8- , loaded with Christmas mail and cargo, had apparently missed its initial approach to the airport and the crew asked for and was given permission to go into a holding pattern at 6,000 feet THE PLANE, however, was to have been m an oval pat- tern north and west of the airport as crewmen attempted to fix a landing gear malfunction. The crew had reported that the indicator light showing the landing gear was down and locked into position did not come on For the next few minutes, the flight crew apparently had a mixup of flight direction as it was later found that the flight officers flight director had a correct reading The new stake Relief Society president is Mrs Susan Martin, Mrs Cleone "Cook, educational counselor and Mrs Adora Dahl is homemaking counselor, Tiffam Virginia Jones celebrated her third birthday on July 24 She is the daughter of Michael and Shamra Jones Camping at Tony's Grove with her grand parents Mr and Mrs Zenas W.

However, according to the NTSB report, the pilot did not inform the control center in Salt Lake that the plane was without its No. 1 generator and therefore had no other radio receiver in operation. AFTER approaching Salt Lake again and turning into atits holding pattern-st- ill tempting to fix theDC--landing 8 then gear problem-t- he went into a holding pattern which took it too close to the mountains on the east, the report indicated. At this time, control center had attempted to contact the pilot but was unable to do so because the crew was on another channel talking to repairmen in San Francisco e DURING THIS time, the report noted, the plane had made a right hand turn (back south) but apparently air controllers thought the craft was still northbound Realizing that the plane was dangerously close to the mountains the controllers radioed the crew to "turn left, make a left turn back to the VOR (holding pattern) AS IT turned out, the n The report further stated that either because his radar indicator was not clear enough to show precisely where the DC-- 8 was or because he (controller) believed the plane was still northbound, the instructions to make a left turn were fatally wrong SAFETY BOARD investigations also showed that had the plane, Flight 2860, continued his right turn to the radial of the VOR, the apparent intended flight path, the aircraft would have cleared the mountains NTSB officials, meanwhile, blamed the crew for failing to report its lack of a second radio receiver and for flying too fast while in a holding pattern The report indicated that the planes speed was 240 knots, about 40 knots above the normal pattern speed e AS A result of the confusion, three crewmen-ptlo- t, first officer and flight Distriu to cover mn if bakers, b" kt and mdus tr.it arts class supp! cs "It SihiKii is found that (he fe were illej al If a student cin bring a towel from home he shouldo l tw charged for one at S hool," she said. w lifritiraw.tn win Newman and Mrs Ralph their family of three children returned home from a two week trip to the northwest They enjoyed fishing and (mating Mr, and Mrs C Russell Hansen and their daughter Shelly and their oldest son, Mr and Mrs Scott Hansen and their son Matthew, age 4, spent the July 2 Uh weekend vacationing at Yellowstone Park Fres and Mrs C Russel!
