Wire communication aids to air transportation

Abstract

HISTORY of air transportation within the past few years indicates that continued growth may be expected, particularly as hazards to flying are mitigated and safety and dependability are recognized by the public. The government is continuing the extension of airways, weather reporting, and other services, and air transport companies are progressing in developing transport business. Fast and reliable communication service has proved the backbone of weather and position reporting, and has been a valuable aid in the handling of traffic.
