 these dangers follow very definite tracks which makes it possible to chart dangerous areas, if such charts were available it would be poor airmanship for any captain to allow thunderstorms to overtake his ship with instruments for de- lection of the direction of these disturbances and would be of great value, as for a long time to come pilots will of necessity be compell- ed to fly over uncharted areas as only partly charted regions are now available" ------
