DALLAS (AP) — A lawmaker and
some air safety groups say an in
crease in the number of near-misses
over Texas, as well as the rest of the
country, should be a cause of con
cern for airlines and passengers.
The Federal Aviation Administra
tion says 72 near-misses between air
craft were reported over Texas last
year, up from 67 in 1985. California
had 202 reported near-misses, while
Florida posted 79.
“These new figures alarm me,”
said U.S. Rep. Guy V. Molinari, R-
N.Y., a member of the House Public
Works and Transportation subcom
mittee on oversight and investiga
tions.
But FAA spokesman John Leyden
called the increase “misleading,” say
ing it represents more stringent re
porting requirements the agency
started in 1984.
Three collisions occurred in Jan
uary, including one between two Air
Force jets near Brownwood.
Molinari said, “You have to be an
idiot not to see that (the figures)
have some significance. It bothers
me that the FAA says they don’t
have any significance.”
Pilots, air safety experts and some
air traffic controllers say an over
worked and understaffed air control
system contributed to increases in
near-misses.
U.S. pilots in 1986 reported 828
near-collisions to the FAA, as com
pared to 758 in 1985. The agency
defines a near-collision as when air
craft come within 500 feet of each
other.

Houston, Atlanta continue
battle over convention site
HOUSTON (AP) — Mayor Kathy
Whitmire says she is concerned that
Atlanta may have inflated the value
of its bid to lure the 1988 Demo
cratic National Convention to
Georgia instead of Houston.
But she says she’ll keep details of
Houston’s offer a secret — a move
Atlanta officials say they’ll match.
“That’s exactly what I don’t want
— (Houston’s offer) lying down on
the sheet with Atlanta’s estimate, be
cause I think they may have inflated
theirs,” Whitmire said Wednesday.
“I don’t know whether Atlanta
would, or whether Kansas City
would, or just who would do that,
but it is a concern of mine,” Whit
mire added.
Houston and Atlanta are consid
ered the front-runners among six
cities vying for the convention, esti
mated to bring $67 million and pub
licity to the selected city. Kansas City
also is a contender.
Houston’s bid included $8 million
or more in public and private contri
butions, officials said.
The 56-member site selection
committee is expected to make its
decision on theluly 1988 convention
at a meeting Fuesday in Washing
ton.
