Show LIFETIMES Hill AFB workers were recognized in December for approved suggestions they made through the Air Force Suggestion Program. Two electronic engineers in the Aircraft Directorate David G. Chaston and David McNeill will share equally an award of $5,000 for their suggestion concerning the flare system. As a result of several incidents of inadvertent flare releases on the ground which resulted in personal injury and damage to Air Force property, Tactical Air Command directed that the aircraft be modified to make the chaff, flare system safe by conswitch. This renecting it to the quired the aircraft undergo a major wiring change that must be done at depot level. The suggesters beteved this change had the potential for causing further failure points, including those caused by adding an externally mounted relay. They proposed that the system be made by using another method. Their alternate method was approved and, as a result, an even greater safety feature has been implemented. John L. Vasquez and Scott F. Kendall, aircraft mechanics in LA, will share equally an award of $2,500. They noted that when the 6 aircraft were bead blasted, a significant amount of blast media got into the gun area due to numerous holes, cooling ports and doors.

Mr. Bartlett received an award of $1,021 for plug the holes and openings, it was impossible to his suggestion. Others who received awards were: complete this process and still have a clean gun.
