Eaaaee———————————————————— NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 1926. CONNECTICUT BARS FAULTY AIRPLANES Nine Condemned, Eight Pilots Disciplined, in Two Years Nine afrplanes have been con- demned, eight pilots disciplined and one aviation field disapproved by the aviation division of the state motor ‘vehicle department in the past two years. In the year 1925 34 planes were registered and 38 pilots licensed in Connecticut. All of these planes were inspected at least four times during the year and those in frequent use were inspected oftener. At the same time, inspections of equipment, ficlds and pilots were made throughout the state in tF state's work of trying to safeguard aviation, as required by statute, In the current year, there have been 11 airplane accidents reported in Connecticut, according to the records of the motor vehicle depart- ment. Rigid requirements for the opera- tion of aircraft in this state are he- | ing enforced by fhe state aviation division. Of the planes condemned, one was due to neglect causing parts to rot, three to other forms of natur- al deterioration, and others to fm- pairment of strength by accidents and otherwise. During the last vear 150 inspections of planes were made and inspectors were detailed to patrol over areas where large crowds congregated, such as at the football games in the Yale Bowl and the Yale-Harvard boat races on the Thames river. These patrols were maintained chiefly to prevent low flying and stunt flying over the crowds. The practice of motion pic- | ture companies and news photo- graphers hiring planes to fly at Jow Ititudes to facilitate picture taking has been forbidden. Distribution of circulars by alr has also been pro- hibited, was arrested for violatioh of that law.
