The drive will extend over all of the Alaska mainland and Aleutian Chain, and will attempt to record every site. Quite often military and civilian ] alike report the sighting lof aircraft wreckage. Such reports Rip Smith, national opinion poll imust always be investigated, and more often than not, are found to munity that will serve as a barom- be aircraft wreckage which had keen previously investigated tut not charged as an “old crash.” Investi- gations of this type unnecessarily utilize both military and ecivilian aircraft, a result is untold time and ‘expense. Also, such inVestigation lnighm are *usually conducted at ;minimum airspeeds, thus placing \aircraft and, personnel in precarious flight positiohs. A study of existing military air- craft accident filessof the Alaskan {Air Command has been made, as well as queries of other military and civilian agencies in Alaska, pro- ducing a listing of all aircraft crashes and information pertinent ito each crash which is now avail- lable. This list, though recognized {by Hq. AAC as incomplete, due to ‘lack of information, is receiving wide military and civilian distribu- tion throughout Alaska and the Aleutian “Chain. The Alaskan Air Command will also greatly appreciate any available information of visa- ble aircraft wreckage to implement additions, Such informatign should be addressed to the Commanding General, Alaskan Air Command, At- \tenion: Deputy Chief of Statf, Op- erations, Fort Richardson, Alaska, fand should include, where possible, type aircraft, serial number, date of incident, Jocation (longitude and (latitude) and any other informa- tion that will pin point the loca- tion of the wreckage or further add to its description.
