HAZARDS OVERCOME
BLIND FLYING BY DAY OR NIGHT ACCORDING TO AMERICAN AUTHORITY. . ANOTHER GREAT INVENTION. (By Telegraph—Press Association —Copyright) (Received This Day, 11.0 a.m.) NEW YORK, April 1. “The hazards of ‘blind flying’ by day and night have been conquered,” declared Mr Ernest Breech, president of the Bendix Aviation Corporation. Mr Breech told the “New York Times”: “You may remember milling around in a fog, waiting your turn to come in on beams. It is an uncomfortable feeling. Some have said that when air lines can disregard weather and when pilots can see mountains through fog at night, flying will be safe. Well, I am happy to announce that through startling war developments these hazards have been conquered. It is no longer experimental. I give you a positive assurance that after the war blind flying in a fog will join the long list of weather hazards man has conquered. Man’s genius has added another great invention, assuring the pilot a ceiling and visibility unlimited, regardless of the actual weather.”
