poses of airplane radio the coil aerials
are in the form of wires wound on the
wings and struts OF the plane. They
vary from two feet square to between
ten and fifteen feet square. and are
used chiefly for receiving messages.
The coils are turned edge on toward
the transmitting station in order to
pick up the loudest signal. The re-
suit has been tantamount almost to q
revolution in the development of radio
signaling. Even the much -vaunted
underground wires have failed to
demonstrate any marked advantage

leading to the development Of a device
which will enable the pilot to locate
the exact landing spot by localized
signals after his direction finder has
brought him to the general vicinity.
To date the landing signal device has
been exploited so that 1t can send out
its signal to a distance Of about 5000

II there is any one discovery that
has tended to eliminate risk in the
landing of airplanes. it is the direc-
ton finder. AS Pilot Harold Black
landed on the western front. so the
landing of countless pilots since has
been made safe by circling around the
aerodrome in response to the observa-
tions made using this instrument.
The direction finder is the result Of
an amplification Of research work

coil aerials. The Investigations were

had turned "Methody" preacher and
