A reliability of 94.18 per cent. is now being maintained by the air.
B.B.C. Wireless Symphony, craft of Imperial Airways in their Orchestra (9692). Sights between London and the continent, and Britain and India. Skilled pilotage, together with the standardisation of a fleet of multi- engined aircraft, and the existence of a ground organisation which is the fruit of years of operating ex- perience, all play their part in securing such a dependability as this; while another aid which is vital is represented by wireless telegraphy and telephony, as they are now utilised systematically, in the everyday operation of a modern airway.

The airway traffic Controller, in his office in the tower at the London air-station, has a big map before him which he is studying constantly.
