Two pilots
grounded
in landing
accident
Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The Federal
Aviation Adminstration on Thurs
day grounded two American Air
lines pilots and a flight engineer in
volved in an incident in which a
jetliner hit two sets of runway land
ing lights during an approach at
Harlingen, and then made three
more nights before the resulting
damage was discovered.
The FAA said the operating cer
tificates of the two pilots, including
the captain, who was a 20-year vet
eran at American, were revoked im
mediately.
The agency said the pilots operat
ing the Boeing 727 with 132 people,
including the seven crew members
on board, acted “in a careless man
ner” and failed to officially report
the accident.
The three employees were identi
fied as Capt. John Dowds; First Offi
cer Stephen Gall, the co-pilot who
has worked at American since 1979;
and John Bonewitz, the flight engi
neer who was hired last October.
No one was injured in the inci
dent, although officials said the im
pact with the break-away airport
lights was severe enough to cause the
oxygen masks in the cabin to dis
lodge and several ceiling tiles to
break away.
American Airlines spokesman
John Hotard said the airline would
have no comment pending the com
pletion of its investigation except to
confirm the FAA’s action.
According to officials, the acci
dent involved American Flight 844,
which was trying to make a landing
at Harlingen during poor weather
late Friday night. After two unsuc
cessful landing attempts, the pilot
tried a third approach and struck a
support beam of approach lights
about 450 feet from the beginning
of the runway and another set of
lights about 200 feet closer to the
runway.
The airplane was flown to San
Antonio where it landed without in
cident and the passengers were put
on buses. The plane was flown with
out passengers to Dallas-Fort Worth.
The aircraft resumed its normal
flights Saturday, carrying passen
gers from Dallas to San Antonio,
back to Dallas and on to Denver
where the cockpit crew noticed mi
nor damages to the outside skin of
the aircraft.
