Marshall: zzC?3%3 JUL 2 8 1966 CAI-10 Administrator McKee has- asked me to reply to your letter of July 20, 1966,1 concerning the 500 mile limitation on nonstop air carrier flights at Washington National Airport and also the enclosed copy of the Resolution by the Council of the City of Saint Paul urging that this limitation be rescinded. In response to the protest which we have received from many Members of Congress and the public,. the Agency has thoroughly reviewed the - situation and we believe we have found an acceptable alternative . solution which will satisfactorily relieve the congestion problem. This solution restricts air carrier operations to forty - flights per hour. For your information, I am enclosing a copy of our press release describing this in detail.,.' Thank you for taking the time to write us regarding this matter. Sincerely yours, I L l Arven H. Saunders, Director Bureau of National Capital Airports Enclosure OFFICE OF INFORMATION SERVICES • FEDERAL AVIATION AGENCY • WASHINGTON, D. C. 20553 66 -74 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Area Code 202 962 -6460 or 962 -5563 July 27, 1966 RULE PROPOSED TO LIMIT NUMBER OF HOURLY FLIGHTS AT WASHINGTON NATIONAL AIRPORT The Bureau of National Capital Airports announced today a proposed regulation that would limit scheduled airline operations to a maximum of 40 an hour at Washington National Airport. The limitation was issued in the form of a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking which directs the 13 airlines serving Washington National to cancel or move to another airport those operations in excess of 40 an hour. Airlines will be given their choice of scheduling operations within the 40 per hour limit by cooperative action or being assigned individual quotas by the Bureau of National Capital Airports. September 1 is the effective date of the limitation. The limitation replaces a previously- adopted operating policy for the airport which restricted Washington National to a non -stop service perimeter of 500 miles. Ten of the 13 airlines serving the airport had proposed this'• perimeter as an effective method of reducing the congestion problem. Its acceptance resulted in a storm of protest from a large number of travelers who frequently are required to fly to points beyond the perimeter. ' Under the proposed rule, the airlines may continue to serve a radius of 650 miles. In addition, the airlines will be allowed to continue to provide service which was available in 1965 to a few points as far away as 1,000 miles. Cities included in these categories are Memphis; St. Louis, Tampa, Miami, Minneapolis -St. Paul, Orlando, Fla., Milwaukee, West Palm Beach, Fla. (over) v 1� Al 2 Nashville, Chicago, Atlanta, Jacksonville, Fla., and Huntsville, Ala. Prior to the aviation mechanics' strike, the airlines were exceeding 40 operations an hour at Washington National nine hours each day. These periods came in the hours of 9 a.m., 11 a.m., 1 p.m., 4 p.m., 5 p.m., 6 p.m., 7 p.m., 8 p.m., 9 p.m. This volume of operation was far in excess of the capacity of the airport's parking lots, terminal building and aircraft ground facilities. The new hourly limitation will restrict total daily operations at the airport to a more manageable level. It also will halt the rise of operations at the airport. With no limitations, daily operations at the airport would have risen to approximately 760 by this fall. In announcing the new limitation; the Bureau rejected a new proposal from the Air Transport Association to cancel the 500 -mile perimeter and place a limitation of 44 operations an hour on the airlines. "A limit of 44 operations an hour would not relieve the ground congestion problem at Washington National when the passenger carrying capacity of aircraft presently using the airport is taken into consideration," Arven Saunders, Director of the Bureau of National Capital Airports said. "In our judgment, a reasonable use of Washington National will be achieved with 40 scheduled air carrier operations per hour with allowances made for extra sections. Congestion must be relieved at the airport but 44 operations an hour will not do it. The Air Transport Association's proposal would permit total operations to exceed the airport's capacity." The Bureau carefully studied another proposal to roll back the schedules to a pattern existing at an earlier date but found that this proposal failed also to take into account,the larger passenger capacity of the jet, Mr. Saunders explained. Airport operations on the proposed basis will also require limitations by other users both private and corporate to keep all operations within a total of 60 an hour when instrument flight conditions prevail. The proposed rule will further require the airlines to obtain written permission from the Bureau before changing type and model of aircraft flying in and out of Washington National Airport. The limitations provided by the proposed rule will be reviewed every 60 days by the Bureau to make certain that they provide sensible utilization of the airport.
