A c1i9 air plane of the Hickam Landing device pact awarded Washington up the fed my aviation Agency put a it Mil lion Down payment on a major air safety device a completely Auto Matic All weather Landing system Tobe operating in the Early 1970 s. The Agency announced it has awarded a 1.08 million contract to the airborne instruments Labora tory of Deer Park ., to com plete development of the All elec a Only Blind Landing system. Tai device will enable planes to land in Lero Era visibility and cell ing conditions. Lack of All weather Landing capability costs the airlines an estimated to million a year i delays re outings and even Acci dents. The majority of crashes occur in the Landing and approach phases of flights and most of these involve bad weather operations. The Faa described the ail pro act a a second generation Blind Landing a item. It said a simpler first generation system will be available to the airlines by i960.

The Faa has spent More than92.5 million on All weather Landing research since 1959. Pilots have Long pleaded for such a device with one reservation they want a sys tem which allows a Pilot to take Over manually if the electronic Lack Box suddenly goes haywire.
