FY 1970 FINANCIAL PROGRAM ISSUE NO. 2
A-12 AIRCRAFT IN STORAGE
1. It is recognized that SCOPE COTTON decision number 21
(27 January 1969) assigned A-12 aircraft storage responsibilities
to Director, Program D, and that these aircraft and related
assets were thereafter to be considered the property of the NRP.
2. However, we strongly support the D/NRO proposal for
conduct of one A-12 aircraft flight test during FY 1970. It
is further considered appropriate.that the entire storage
concept be reassessed during this same Fiscal Year. Expensive
equipment, systems and hardware are being maintained in storage
that could conceivably be used elsewhere.
?3. As a point of significance pertaining to the possible
deterioration of equipment over an extended storage period,
approximately one year after storage a complete operational check
was performed by Lockheed covering flight controls, gear operation,
etc. through use of the primary aircraft systems. The results
of this exercise was gratifying and would tend to indicate that
the possible life expectancy vs rate of deterioration in a
storage configuration would warrant further evaluation. The
applicable systems operated perfectly with no leakage or
evidence of deterioration of the hydraulic systems being operated.
