AIRMEN CONQUER FOG

AT LAST

Wireless Engineer's Achievement

(Special Air Mall Service)

London, Feb. 9.

It has been revealed that the Germans have perfected a method by which air liners can be led into their terminal aerodrome in the worst conditions" of fog, without any risk of disaster.

It is impossible to exaggerate the importance of this invention. Ever since the inception of flying aviators have had to acknowledge. defeat in the face of fog.

When he is in this beam he hears a continuous note in his earphones. When he is to the right he hears a series of dots," and when to the left a series of dashes,

Beams At Angles. Pleaced roughly in the middle of the aerodrome, and flush with the ground, is another transmitter: This projects a series of beams ulong, the same direction as the horizontal one, but at angles from the ground equal to the different gliding angles of various types of aircraft. The pilot flying along the directional beam knows when he hits these others by means of an aural signal and a neon light.

He chooses the beam most suit-

In the last few years blind-ying instruments and wireless have en- abled pilots to take-off and fly in fog, but must of the gain of this achievement has been lost owing to the necessity for the terminal aerodrome at the journey's end having clear visibility, to enable the pilot to see when landing.

Now this cramping.compulsion is dead. Thanks to the brilliance of German wireless engineers, flying is ed to the glide of his aircraft and the only means of travel that isles down it by keeping another scornfully oblivious of the restric tion placed on all other methods of travel by fog,
