Officials rebuild planes to investigate crash - SALT LAKE CITY (AP) Federal investigators have begun piecing together twisted wreckage to help them understand what happened when two planes collided over suburban Kearns, killing 10 people. The National Transportation Safety Board probe into the collision between a SkyWest Western Express commuter airplane and a private single-engin- e plane continues today, although some investigators have completed their work in Salt Lake City and returned to Washington, D.C. On Sunday, investigators examined debris from the two planes which fell on the residential neighborhood when they collided Thursday afternoon. John Lauber, the NTSB member who headed the probe, also said investigators retraced the routes of the two planes in comparable aircraft and monitored how they showed up on Salt Lake City International Airport's radar system. The paths were based on radar data obtained from the air traffic died at the time of impact," said Dr. E.S. Sweeney. "In the case of others, I can't be certain whether they died upon impact (in the sky) or when they hit the ground." The NTSB structures team planned to partially reconstruct the Fairchild Metroliner oper ated by SkyWest and the Mooney using more than 100 small pieces of wreckage and 20 larger sections recovered by the Salt Lake County Sheriff's Office.

The new system, which would go into effect in May if adopted next month by the Federal Aviation Administration, "legally allows aircraft to come closer together in an attempt to make the skies safer," said Dennis Wollen, a Boise pilot and general manager of the Ponderosa Aero Club.

"It turned out he wanted what we just couldn't give him," Lt. Richard Sweeney said Sunday. "He wanted us to do away with the charges pending against him in Colorado. He wanted us to just let him walk away." West Valley Police Chief David SALT LAKE CITY (AP) Gov. Norm Bangerter has told bank- ruptcy for five insolvent Utah thrifts for reorganization and protection against depositors' lawsuits. Elaine Weis, state financial institutions commissioner, was given the authority late Friday to proceed with filing for federal Chapter 11 jurisdiction as a recourse for settling the thrifts' i, predicament, said Francine the governor's press secreGi-an- tary. Service Area for Boise, or ARSA, would expand the space in which pilots must contact air traffic controllers. Controllers would monitor up to planes in a wider area 4,000 feet above ground and 10 miles away, compared to the present 3,000 feet and 5 miles. ARSA is part of an attempt to standardize air traffic control U.S. around the country. Sixty-fiv- e airports, including Salt Lake City, are covered by ARSAs. Though Salt Lake uses ARSA, one plane in Thursday's crash, which took off from an uncon trolled suburban airport, failed to radio the control tower, an air traffic manager at Salt Lake City International Airport said Friday. The Salt Lake air traffic controller noticed an unidentified plane in the area of the SkyWest airliner on its final approach Thursday, but did not warn the airliner before the crash. Pilots using the Boise airport already comply with the proposed rules almost all the time, and are likely to see little change, said Don Caruthers, plans and procedures Campbell said Steven Scott Bock, 25, held officers at bay nearly 19 hours after police attempted to serve him with a warrant for possession of stolen property around 6 p.m. Saturday. "Our officers went down to serve the warrant. He grabbed the girl and screamed that he was going to kill her and himself if they didn't get out of there," Campbell said. "He just said he didn't want to go back to jail and wasn't going to be taken alive." The woman, identified as Ann Volker, 18, of Colorado Springs. Colo., told police earlier she was wife. Bock's common-la- Sweeney, called to duty as he was about to celebrate his daughter's third birthday, tried to talk Bock into surrendering for most of the night and early morning, but talks began to break down Sunday morning. "We told him we'd help him fight extradition, as is his right," Sweeney said. "We told him we'd get him an attorney. We told him we'd help get him into an alcohol detoxication program.

But Wollen and other local pilots object to the proposed rules on several grounds: Every plane must be equipped with a two-waradio, ranging from $600 to $4,000. Some planes do not have radios. The present, voluntary system works well, Wollen said. Above all, the ARSA would reduce the required separation between aircraft flying under Visual Flight Rule generally, smaller planes. y Hostage standoff ends in apparent Bankruptcy thrift option -- state officials to pursue control center at the airport and the 299th Radar Range Squadron at Hill Air Force Base.

"Some of the victims clearly He also said the left side of the Mooney 's single engine was hadly damaged and relatively little damage occurred on the right side, consistent with eyewitness reports that the small plane's left wing struck just under the right wing of the Metroliner. Earlier, investigators reviewed radar records and interviewed air traffic control officials at the main Salt Lake airport, including the controller tracking the SkyWest plane's approach for landing. They also interviewed personnel at Salt Lake Airport No. 2. where the single-engin- e Mooney was conducting takeoff and landing exercises, and three dozen eyewitnesses to the collision or its aftermath. The controller at the international airport told investigators he did not recall seeing a radar image of small plane within the outer boundaries of a restricted airspace area north of Airport No. 2, but earlier he had seen the image of a plane about 3 to 4 miles south of the airport. murder-suicid- e violent crime and mental problems in Utah. He said negotiations continued until about noon, "then things just kind of deteriorated and he said to the negotiators OK we've had it, we're checking out now.'" A police emergency response team then stormed the house firing tear gas and found Bock and Volker dead in a four-focrawl space underneath the home. Campbell said Volker had been shot in the head with a .357 magnum, while Bock apparently died wound to the of a four-memb- ot head. The bodies were taken to the state medical examiner's office for autopsies today. Police initially thought Volker was being held against her will until she told negotiators she was staying with Bock of her own volition and would not leave the home. The home where the shootings occurred belonged to friends of the victims who were not there when police arrived to serve the warrant. Campbell said. Authorities earlier had cordoned area in the mostly a residential neighborhood and evacuated homes in the immediate area of the home. five-bloc- k The latest in news from across the United States provided by Associated Press. ask death penalty wants won't hijack suspect, - WASHINGTON (AP) The Justice Department plans this week to formally ask West Germany to turn over a man charged in the 1985 hijacking of a TWA jetliner, even though the suspect won't be sentenced to death if convicted. The department announced Sunday it wouldn't seek the death penalty against Mohammad Ali a decision which clears the Ha-ma- way for Hamadi to be sent to the United States. West Germany has no death penalty and its laws bar extradition of people to countries which have capital punishment. Justice Department spokesman Patrick Korten said, "We have concluded that the only way we can get him back is through the use of the formal extradition process and that extradition process requires that we agree not to impose the death penalty if the suspect is convicted of capital crimes here in the U.S." Hamadi is charged with air piracy, which carries the death penalty, and murder The department said Sunday it was preparing a formal extradition request to be presented to the West German government within the week. In Bonn. Juergen Schmid, a spokesman for the West German Justice Department, indicated that Hamadi could be extradited to the United States "relatively soon" now that U.S. officials have pledged not to seek the death penalty. The "absence of the pledge has been the main obstacle." Schmid said. "If this main obstacle is removed, the process could theoretically go fairly quickly. ... In theory at least, he could be extradited relatively soon." Hamadi, 22, was arrested last Tuesday at the Frankfurt airport after he arrived from Beirut. West German officials said customs agents searching Hamadi's luggage found three wine bottles full of methyl nitrate, which can be used to make explosives. The officials said they thought he was planning a bomb attack, although they were unsure of his target. The Justice Department asked the West Germans for Hamadi. but said they German officials wouldn't turn him over if he could be sentenced to death alter a U.S. conviction.
