ANGRY POSTMAN AT TORONTO MEETING Maurice Farberman, one of the 454 postal workers at a Toronto meeting of the local Federated Associa- tion of Letter Carriers Fri- day, points an angry finger at union vice president Bob Cooper as members surge around the speaker's plat- form, Heated controversy centred around William Dawson, local president of the union, who, although not at the meeting, accepted a none-confidence vote urg- ing his resignation. Later Mr. Dawson said he would not resign until members voted in secret ballot. (CP Wirephoto)- Technical Fault Seen Cause Of Fatal Crash By BEN WARD OTTAWA (CP)--A DC-8F jet that crashed near Montreal 21 months ago, killing all 118 per- sons aboard, probably was) forced into an excessive dive because of a technical fault and hadn't enough height to re- cover. That was the essence of aj 9,500-word report issued Friday by a one-man federal inquiry that investigated the crash, Canada's worst air disaster. "It is concluded that the ac- tual cause of the accident can- not be determined with cer- tainty," Mr. Justice George Challies of the Quebec Superior} Court reported. But he added that "the most). probable cause" was a fault in the plane's automatic%fitch trim compensator that forced the nose up. The pilot's efforts to overcome this situation put the plane into a dive from which it was impossible to recover in time. The huge Trans-Canada Air Lines (now Air Canada) jet plunged straight into the ground from a height of between 5,000 and 7,000 feet and blew to bits in the early evening of Nov. 29, 1963, It-had seven crew mem bers and 111 passengers making a regular "businessmen's. spe- cial" flight to Toronto. IN FIVE MINUTES It crashed only five minutes after takeoff from Montreal In- ternational Airport The chain of technical events) which Mr.. Justice Challies de- scribed as the most probable cause of the tragedy is no argu bua od on DC-8 jets. In/September of 1964 the -Doiglas Aircraft Co., producer of the plane, made changes that} limit to one-half of one degree! the amount of nose-down trim a pilot can apply to the hori- zontal stabilizers. Formerly it was two degrees, or four times as much Similar alterations were made in the Boeing 707, the DC-8's chief rival in commer- cial aviation. Under the technical circum- stances that. the report ~de- scribed as the probable cause of the crash, the pilot, woudl be plunging ° earthward with his two main control devices com- batting each other. The ele- vators would be in an "up" po- sition and the stabilizers! "down," jammed there by the air pressure. His only remedy was to re- lease his pull on the control col-| umn, momentarily causing a steeper and faster dive but un- stalling the motor on the stabil- izers.

The Montreal jet was about 6,000 feet short of that requirement. | The circumstances of the {Montreal crash were identical with one three months later laa New Orleans and led to a {joint Canadian-American study. iit included flying tests with DC-8s. Mr. Justice Challies said the direct cause of the crash ap- parently was the action of the pilot in adjusting the horizontal stabilizers to put the jet's nose down. These motor-driven sta- bilizers are small "wings" that extend from either side of a plane's tail. "The aircraft then com- |menced a diving descent, build- ing up speed at such a rate that any attempted recovery was ineffective because the sta- bilizer hydraulic motor had stalfed, sible within the altitude avail- tion," he wrote. DISCUSSES CONDITIONS | His report, dismissing the theory of pilot error, then dis- cussed the conditions that might have caused the pilot to take this action. "| Most probable of these was By unprogrammed extension of the pitch trim compensator,' |known as PTC. PTC influences the elevators | that are located behind the sta- jbilizers and make a plane go! lup or down. It automatically adjusts them as increased speed shifts the centre of lift farther back on the main wings. | | As this centre changes, the plane has a tendency to nose down, The computerized PTC jdevice works to overcome this |by moving the elevators to a/ nose-up position.

"If this occurs, it usually is de- tected immediately by the rear- ward pressure on the (pilot's) control column and by the click- ing sound which accompanies the extension." If a pilot wasn't aware of the \fault he would tend to apply a nose-down trim to the stabiliz- ers to counteract the nose-up tendency. Should PTC then retract, the plane would pitch downward but the pilot would have no trouble! recovering. 4 WOULD.

(CP)-- A proposal by the Ontario gov- ernment that workers at a packing plarit' here return to work, while their dispute with the company is put to binding arbitration, has been called a 'tactic' by the ugfon. However, the executive of Local 459 of the United Pack- inghouse, Food and Allied Workers Union (CLC) said Fri- day it is considering the pro- posal by Labor Minister Leslie Rowntree in the union's dispute} with H.

The walkout began July 27, f In its statement Friday, the union's executive said the min- ister's proposal comes as no surprise. WHY NOT THERE? The union has asked that, if there were any mutual benefits to be gained by this type of arbitration, why were they not applied by the federal depart- ment of labor in the postal strike and the grain handlers' unemployment rate fell to an eight-year low of 4.5 per cent.
