Associated Press RACINE, Wis. A squadron flew the missing-man formation at the Racine Airshow on Sunday in tribute to an Indiana stunt pilot killed while performing a comedy routine. The six planes flew over Batten Airport and one broke off in memory of Peggy Hovious, 29, of Morgan County, who had been living recently in Urbana, Ill.
Hovious crashed her yellow single-engine Piper about 600 feet from spectators Saturday. It wasn't known why the plane banked to its left and went into a steep dive. Air show organizers held a memorial service to mourn Hovious' tragic death during the first day of the weekend show. "We sorely miss a fine performer and an exceptional pilot," air show coordinator Mike Walton said. Hovious' act involved flying the craft as though she didn't know how.
In another segment, her partner, Steve Alcorn, landed the Piper on a moving car Hovious drove. She was an experienced pilot who had performed at air shows tribute flier air show for about five years, officials said. She died of injuries soon after Alcorn ran to the wreckage. Hovious and Alcorn shared an address in Urbana. Gene Martin, a member of the Lima Lima Flight Team, a sixplane precision aerobatic group, described Hovious as "very professional.
A very likable person." "She was using good equipment. It was a freak accident," Martin said. The crash delayed the air show for about three hours and the crowd shrank from thousands to about 400. Spectators offered various explanations for Hovious losing control. "It appeared the plane stalled, just fell out of the sky," said Dave Mills of Waukesha.
"There was a thud, a cloud of dust." "She was about 100 feet off the ground when she turned, headed down, and I noticed her angle had increased," said Hugh Bruno, who was standing in the first row of spectators. "At the last second it seemed that her left wing dropped. She just crumpled the left wing." The plane spun into the runway, sliding several feet and crashing near a grassy area where 16 sticks of dynamite and containers of gasoline had been set for explosions. They did not ignite. The Federal Aviation Administration and National Transportation Safety Board are investigating the accident.
Charles Taylor, 101, was aviation pioneer Engineer helped design the engine for Charles Lindbergh's trans-Atlantic aircraft. Charles Fayette Taylor, an engineer who helped to design the engine for the plane that carried Charles A. Lindbergh across the Atlantic, died June 22 at his home in Weston, Mass. He was 101. Taylor was on the faculty at Massachusetts Institute of Technology from 1926 until his retirement in 1960.
His two-volume text, The Internal Combustion Engine in Theory and Practice, written several decades ago, remains a primary reference for automotive engineers, MIT said in announcing his death. In the early 1920s, just after graduating from Yale University with a degree in mechanical engineering and while in charge of the Army's Air Service Laboratory in Dayton, Ohio, Taylor was introduced to Orville Wright. Soon he was working for Wright Aeronautical where he was in charge of airplane-engine design and development from 1923 to 1926. He was on the team that designed the aircooled Whirlwind engine for The Spirit of St. Louis, the craft built by Ryan Aircraft of San Diego for Lindbergh's New-York-to-Paris flight in 1927.
Knowing full well that his life depended on the engine (and his ability to stay awake for the 33 hours of the flight), Lindbergh fussed over its assembly. According to one account, a mechanic accidentally cracked a cooling fin. Not content to have the single fin replaced, Lindbergh wanted a whole new section of engine. "Why?" the mechanic asked. "Because I don't swim so well," Lindbergh replied.
On the trip east before the transAtlantic flight, the engine coughed a bit over the Rocky Mountains, More ominously, it was running 1.5 percent below full power on the wet, chilly morning of May 20, 1927, as Lindbergh revved it on a Long Island airfield, mulling whether to take off for Paris. One last check showed everything. in order. Mechanics figured the engine was being momentarily slowed by the elements. The plane took off and the engine worked just fine, even through 1,000 miles of snow and sleet over the ocean.
As a boy in New York City and in Montclair, N.J., where his family moved when he was 11, Charles Taylor was fascinated by airplanes. His drawings were like blueprints, his mother recalled years later. In 1912, he entered Yale, receiving a bachelor's degree in philosophy in 1915. In World War he was an inspector of aircraft material for the Signal Corps for three months before being put in charge of the Navy's Aeronautical Engine Laboratory in Washington. He returned to Yale after the war and received an engineering degree in 1920.
Taylor joined MIT as an associate professor of aeronautical engineering in 1926. Three years later, he was a full professor and head of aeronautical engineering. In 1933, he was named professor of mechanical engineering and director of the new Sloan Laboratory for Aircraft and Automotive Engines, a post he held until his retirement in 1960. In 1988, Taylor and his wife, Alice, were honored for creating the Educational Counseling Committee of Boston in the late 1940s and helping more than 2,000 black children attend college. Just before his 100th birthday, on Sept.
24, 1994, he was asked what it meant to live a century, "I saw Halley's Comet twice," he replied. Surviving are his wife, who is 98; a son, Philip; seven grandchildren, and 11 great Army delays chemical destruction ASSOCIATED PRESS Regulators in Utah have given OK to incinerate One of the other sites is New- will wait until after hearing. the Tooele Chemical Agent Disposal Facility. The state certified that an emergency response system was in place, analyzed the health risks and reviewed the incinerator. "Burning the weapons in a well-designed incinerator is far safer than storing deteriorating weapons," said Downs, director of the department's solid and hazardous waste division.
The incinerator, 50 miles southwest of Salt Lake City, was built near the site where the Army stores 13,616 tons of nerve and blister agents in rockets, mines, bombs and artillery shells. That amounts to 44 percent of the nation's stockpile. Tooele's is the largest of eight such storage sites throughout the country and the first built to destroy the arms stockpiled since the beginning of the Cold War. port, Ind. TOOELE, Utah State regulators have given the nod for the Army to begin incinerating chemical weapons here, but the Army said it will hold off until after a federal court hearing.
Opponents of the $650 million incinerator filed suit this spring in U.S. District Court at Salt Lake City, claiming it is unsafe. A hearing on their request for a preliminary injunction to prevent weapons burning is scheduled for July 22. Marilyn Tischbin, a spokeswoman for the Army's chemical demilitarization project, said the Army volunteered to wait until a judge has had the chance to hear the injunction request. Dennis Downs of the Utah Department of Environmental Quality said Wednesday that the Army has met all conditions required by its permit to burn nerve agent at Associated Press At Newport Chemical Activity, the Army stores about 1,269 tons of deadly VX nerve agent.
Tischbin said workers at Tooele will continue to train for firing up the incinerator. After the initial trial burn, the plant will be able to operate at 50 percent of the capacity allowed by the permit, Downs said. The state will set final operating conditions after trial burn data are reviewed. Craig Williams, spokesman for. the Chemical Weapons Working Group, which brought the action to prevent the incineration, said attorneys are reviewing the state's permitting process to determine whether it was handled properly.
The group contends there are alternative ways of destroying the weapons that should be investigated. Several independent scientific groups have concluded those, alternative technologies are years away and incineration is safe..
