An autopsy disclosed that Mrs. Fine, who had been scheduled to undergo operations for jye cataract next week, died of 'asphyxiation by ligature with two silk stockings around her neck." Medical examiner Joseph A. King said that he could not de- ermine how the stockings were placed around her neck.

"The only basically new design challenge unique to the variable-sweep concept is that on the variable-sweep arrow wing has proved that aerodynamic compromise in the design of supersonic airplanes is no longer necessary," Pennell said.

"This supersonic transport program is a natural extension of Boeing's present leadership in commercial jet aviation," Maynard L. Pennell, supersonic transport program director, said. "This airplane will handling characteristics have and will maintain attitudes during the SST will have a non-stop! range of 4,030 miles (6448 km).) The Boeing SST will be able to take off and land in less distance than the company's largest subsonic jetliner, the 707-320 Intercontinental. Handling performance will be superior to current jets, officials said.

The 20-degree wing- sweep position will permit lower landing speeds, shallower approach attitudes, shorter field length, and less community noise than existing commercial jets. These inherent advantages, available only with a variable- sweep design, were pointed out to those at the briefing as they sat in the full-scale Boeing SST cockpit mockup. On a typical transatlantic flight the Model 733 will climb to 20,000 feet (12.096 m) in five minutes, will be traveling 800 miles an hour (1287 when it reaches 45,000 feet (13.716 m), landing and takeoff very simf increase speed to 1450 miles an lar to the airplane present-day hour (2333 at 50,000 feet pilots are now flying." i (15.240 m), then reach cruising 1BOO Miles an Hour speed of 1800 miles an hour for fun in the Sun Just Wear a Smile and a JANTZEN Surf and Sand Fashions NORTHERN i COMMERCIAL Jantsen Sportswear Stvimsuits JUaln Floor a.
