Among the matters discussed at the aviation meeting at Provo on September 15 were these, taken from the official minutes. I Harlan Bement, state aeronau-I aeronau-I tical director, discussed rules and regulations enforced by . other Repercussions .... According to Region 6 News for October 1, there was quite a squab ble at Bakersfield, Calif., over whom to plame for the fact that certain jigs and fixtures at the Lockheed plant there became jolted jolt-ed out of place, with the result that certain work had to be stopped stop-ped for a while. The main earthquake earth-quake happened just as the shifts were changing, so the day shift blamed it on the swing shift. The unoin, however, blamed poor man agement for leltting such a thing happen, and the management retorted re-torted that they thought the union as struck. The CAA disclaims all responsibility on the grounds that the non-scheduled jiggling was not retroactive. Nobody seems to have blamed the earthquake. i Region 6 News tells us that grad ing for a mountain top VOR instal lation at Bryce Canyon has been completed, and that it is hoped a 'flight check can be made and construction con-struction started by the end of states "gating landings and take ofis on other than designated ,aii-lields, ,aii-lields, and recommended that a' Utah law which prohibits such landmgs and take ou's be repealed except in its application to student stud-ent fliers.

At the afternoon session, Mr. Marshall Beeman, of the CAA, spoke on various problelms of the flight operators. He felt that commercial com-mercial operators shouldl lnot place too much emphasis on revenue rev-enue 'from flight training, but to look to other sources of revenue from use of the airplane.
