Abstract

Aircraft such as the Comet normally fly above cloud formations, but their approach to the airport involves a long and more or less gradual descent which may take them through adverse weather conditions. Violent thunderstorms, for example, which are fairly common in some parts of the tropics, constitute an obvious danger, and the provision at airports of an effective system of cloud warning could provide an added measure of safety along air routes.
