CLARIFICATION
CAMPUS
An article in Thursday's University Daily Kansan needs clarification. The article "Schools propose more fees" should have stated that funds in the engineering school go to the Engineering Student Council.
Japanese architect to speak about eco-friendly designs
Internationally-known architect Shigeru Ban is scheduled to give a lecture at 11 a.m. today at Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union.
Ban, known for his environmentally friendly architecture, has practiced primarily in Japan, where lightweight construction is embraced as part of traditional Japanese architecture. Ban is known for turning paper tubes into items ranging from furniture to housing.
His work has also included temporary shelters for refugees of the 1994 Rwandan crisis and victims of the Kobe earthquake as well as exhibition pavilions and chapels.
Ban studied at the Southern California Institute of Architecture and New York's Cooper Union School of Architecture.
The lecture series is supported by the Schools of Architecture and Urban Design and Student Senate and is open to the public.

STATE
Pilot error found responsible for fatal test aircraft crash
WICHITA - Pilot error and inadequate preflight briefings contributed to the fatal crash of a test aircraft in October 2000, according to a recently released National Transportation Safety Board report.
Pilot Bryan Irelan, co-pilot Eric Fiore
and flight-test engineer David Riggs were testing the Bombardier Challenger 604 jet when it crashed after taking off from Wichita Mid-Continent Airport.
It was in the air for 10 seconds before it crashed into a field, skidded on a runway and burst into flames. All three crew members died.
The NTSB report released April 14 states that the pilot had handled the plane too aggressively, given the way it
was configured. The plane had been loaded with water ballast and other weights to put its center of gravity near the recommended limit for the back of the plane.
The flight was designed to test a modified flight control system, known as a pressure-feel simulator.
Bombardier Aerospace was collecting data from the flight for certification by the British Civil Aviation Authority. In order for the plane to be certified, it
had to demonstrate the pressure-feel simulator's performance with the plane's center of gravity shifted to the rear.
As the plane accelerated for takeoff that day, its fuel shifted toward the rear of the plane. That quickly put the aircraft off balance and caused its engines to stall twice, sending it crashing back to earth.
