AVIATION SAFETY
DISCUSSIONS
By Don Gretxer
for
The Office of Aviation Safety
ROLL CALL . . .
I can not remember a year in
the history of Alaskan aviation
which has been so tragic in the
number of fatal accidents in
small airplanes as this past year.
There were 12 in-flight fatal
accidents which killed off 25
men, women, and children be
tween July 1, 1952, and June 30,
1953. There were eight more ac
cidents which caused serious in
jury to fifteen more of our citi
zens. Two other seriously in
jured persons were survivors of
accidents fatal to others.
This is a partial roll call of
pilots who believed that safety
rules are for the less skillful.
1. Hit a tree while “scouting
moose.”
2. Hit trees during a take-off
from a lake at night.
3. Hit trees during a take-off
from a frozen lake.
4. Flew into a fog, stalled out,
crashed in trees.
5. Flew into fog just after
take-off, spun in.
6. Flew through a small fog
bank, hit mountain on other
side.
7. Flew into clouds in dark
ness, lost control, spun in.
8. Flew into clouds in dark
