 The DNRO reviewed the situation surrounding the
accident which had been preceded by three successful
launches and reported that Kelly Johnson would need at
least another month to study the problem including the
..possible use of a rocket boosted TAGBOARD from a B-52
instead of the present Mach 3 launch aircraft. Dr. Flax
said he was looking at the total program in terms of
cost, recognizing that there was a need for at least two
more carrier aircraft if the TAGBOARD were to be used
operationally. He proposed, and the ExCom concurred,
that he report his findings to the ExCom as soon as that
is possible. In the light of this report, the ExCom will
examine the question of the future course of action on
this program.
