The former barometric altimeter gave the height above sea -level only. A pilot who drifted off his course to poor visibility had no means of estimating his clearance, and was likely to run his plane into a 'mountain side, The new indicator operates by "bouncing" a radio gave from the plane to the grou..d and back, and measuring the transit time. The interval is too short to meas- ure directly, so the frequency of the transmitter is changed con- tinuously. The difference between incoming and outgoing frequen- cies gives the number of waves sent out in the interval The greater the . number, . the longer the transmit time, and the greater MAKING FLYING SAFER the clearance, The meter is cali- brated from 20 to 5,000 feet, so that the pilot can tell at a glance how high he is. Perfected by Russell C. New- house of Bell Telephone Labora- tories, the indicator exemplifies the many valuable by-products of telephone research. Other avia- tion devices have been developed by the telephone laboratories during the past few years. The first of these was a two- way communication system, whereby a pilot in flight can keep in constant touch with the airport. A few years ago, when this system was being tested, a newspaper reporter climbed aboard the Bell Telephone Labora- tories test plane. When it was in flight, he called up his editor and said, "Hello, chief! I'm about 1,600 feet up in the air and talk- ing to you by telephone!" Great rNo.'5 of a series prepared by H, G. Owen, Bell Telephone Company of Candor, was his chagrin when he heard the editor shout across the office, "Jones is drunk again!" As a result of these experi- ments, the pilot can keep continu- ously posted on the weather, land- ing conditions and so forth. At the larger airports, where many machines may be landing at one time, this communication system is used to "stack" planes at dif- ferent levels, so that they cart be brought in one by one. Another interesting device helps guide aircraft down when rain or fog makes safe landing difficult,. Intricate equipment translates sound signals into light signals at the administration building of the airport. A tiny speck of green light moving across a screen of frosted glass gives the exact position of the plane: Air- port. officials can note any errors the pilot makes in bringing his machine down through the fog,
