For the past three r...onths, the percent of aircraft on hand which were
in cOIll.'D.ission da:"ly !".a.s shown 8. :.:;tenciy increase, the figures boitJg 47% for
.tarch, 52% I'm' hpril, am ~Z% for May. This increase should have per-
:uitted a higher pGrcent of aircraft on ham scheduleci for missions during
LiuY, altt.ough the p~rcent of scheduled &ctu.').lly cecreased from 24% of plane
days avaih.blc in April to n';t in May. These increases in the percent of
aircr~ft in canmis~ion furth£~ aggr~vate the 1011 ratio of crews to aircraft,
makir~ it increasingly difficult to cren all available planes.
