Extract

The Ministry of Transport and Civil Aviation makes extensive use of radar for the protection of aircraft en route and also in helping to bring them in on approach for a final visual landing. Since we really became interested in radar we have trained 470 PPI directors and 150 precision controllers; the latter use special equipment and cathode-ray tubes which accurately show the glidepath being followed.
