IR SAFETY CODE - CHANGES ISSUED ;negulations Govern Qualifi- _ cations of Pilots and Speci- fy Flying Conditions. Regulations to guard the safety of fiyers as well - = persons and property underneath t®:.1 are embodied in new sections ¢ the American aero- nautical safety code. announced today by the Bureau of Standards of the Department of Commerce. The new sections of the code, which is being prepared under the auspices of the bureau and the Society of Automotive Engineers by experts representing all interests in aircraft development, deal with. trafiic and pilotage rules, quali- fications for airmen and parachutes. One of the regulations would forbid “trick” flying over crowds or thickly populated districts at any aititude unless authorized by written permit and under. proper safeguards -for spectators and property. To-insure a safe “coasting” radius for airmen in case of engine trouble, aircraft would not be permitted to descend to an altitude of less than 1.500 feet over cities 2 miles In width, while for cities 10 miles wide a minimum alti- tude of nearly a mile Is prescribed. Where rivers, canals, parkways or | other areas permitting a landing without damage to other persons or property are followed, lower altitudes of flight would be allowed. _One of the traffic provisions gives right of way to airsbips over airplanes, wNils both must give way té balloons. Passhus from behind should be to the right,, with passing by diving or ris- ing forbidden. “The code also prescribes rigorous tests for those seeking commercial periodical re-examinatio that the airmen have working knowledge of meteorology. Regular testing of parachutes on commercial aircraft is another provision of the new sections of the code which sup- plement those already issued, dealjng with airdromes and airways, ballobns and airships.

Mac- dy, “and the new rules do not indicate that he will be instituted for some time to come. There are not sufficient planes in the upper ‘air to make violations of aerial traffic rules a serfous matter as yet,” he asserted. Maj. C. R. Bell Transferred. Maj. Clarence R.
