Extract

The Royal Air Force has no operational aircraft fitted with Omega but the author was closely associated with two assessments of the system planned and flown by R.A.F. navigators. Both series of flights used the Marconi Elliott AD 1800 equipment. The first flights were from Boscombe Down in mid-1973; the second series, arranged by the Department of Air Warfare at the R.A.F. College, Cranwell consisted of two flights over the North Pole in September 1976.
