PERSONNEL STATEMENT
FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION
Anchorage Air Route Traffic Control Center
January 7, 1987
The following is a report concerning the incident involving aircraft JL 1628
north of Fairbanks on November 18, 1986 at 0218 UTC.
My name is Samuel J. Rich (SR). I am employed as an Air Traffic Control
Specialist by the Federal Aviation Administration at the Anchorage Air Route
Traffic Control Center, Anchorage, Alaska.
During the period of 0035 UTC, November 18, 1986, to 0835 UTC, November 18,
1986 , I was on duty in the Anchorage ARTCC. I was working the Dl5 position
from 0230 UTC, November 18, 1986, to 0530 UTC, November 18, 1986.
The pilot of JL 1628 reported that he had traffic at his altitude. He stated
it was a big plane with yellow and white lights. We advised him we had no
traffic in his position. We adjusted the radar PVD to approximately a 25 mile
scale and there was a radar return in the position the pilot had reported
traffic.
.I called ROCC to ask if they had any military traffic operating near JL 1628.
The ROCC said they had no military traffic in the area. I then asked them if
they could see any traffic near JL 1628. ROCC advised that they had traffic
near JL 1628 in the same position we did.
I asked ROCC if they had any aircraft to scramble on JL 1628, they said they
would call back. However, there was no further communication regarding the
request for a scramble.
