Abstract
It is shown that, when the scaling in hadron interactions is valid at energies of about 2*1012 eV for x=0.1-1.0 accurate within 10%, the extrapolation of the 'scaling model' to the super-high-energy range 1015-1017 eV contradicts the experimental data on extensive air showers (EAS).Keywords
