Hughes Airwest DC-9 vs. USMC F-4B

June 6th, 1971 McDonnell Douglas DC-9-31 USMC Douglas F-4B Phantom II 50 killed, 1 survivor Duarte, California

DC-9-31 Twin-engine, single-aisle jet airliner. Designed for frequent, short flights. -Artist impression of N9345

F-4B Phantom II -U.S. Marine Corps F-4B Phantom II similar to the one involved Two seat, twin-engine, all-weather, long-range supersonic jet interceptor fighter/ fighter-bomber Originally developed for U.S. Navy by McDonnell Aircraft, later adopted by the U.S.M.C and U.S.A.F.

DC-9 Flight 709 History Put into service in 1969 Scheduled route between L.A., CA and Seattle, WA. 5 stopovers 5,542 airframe hours Pilot: Cpt. Nicolay Co-Pilot: 1st Officer Bruner

F-4B ‘458’ Flight History Active since April 15, 1964 Consigned to the U.S. Marine Corps Two plane cross-country flight Pilot: Lt. Phillips RIO: Lt. Schiess

Issues with the 458 Inoperative radio Inoperative transponder Oxygen system leak Degraded radar system

What happened? Worsening weather conditions ‘458’ elevation: 1,000 ft.  15,500 ft. Aileron roll: 360° Radar failed 2 points of impact 10 Feet

Collision

-Crash site of Flight 706 in the San Gabriel Mountains

-Impact site of ‘458’ on Mount Bliss , approximately 1 mile from the airline wreckage

Survival Impossible for commercial passengers Collision Disintegration Crash Fire Both crewmembers of Phantom could have lived Design flaw in ejector seat

Failure to see each other High closure rate IFR/ VFR Failing equipment Probable Cause Failure to see each other High closure rate IFR/ VFR Failing equipment

Recommendations Video/audio surveillance in ATC facilities Air traffic controlled airspace for entire duration of all IFR air traffic Improved definitive procedures for spotting/tracking of code 7700 aircraft

Additional Recommendations FAA & DOD cooperate to develop program to mitigate collisions and near-misses between civilian and military aircraft DOD restrict high-speed, low-altitude aircraft operation in civilian air corridors, consider collision avoidance technologies on military aircraft, and make military pilots aware of FAA’s radar advisory service
