Flyers Say lightning
Ranks Only Fourth
lin Storm Hazards
By John A. Giles

Turbulence, rather than lightning,
presents the greatest hazard to air
craft in thunderstorm.
That is the conclusion of pilots of
the Air Force and the National Ad-
visory Council on Aeronautics, who
flew 1900 flights into storms over
Florida and Ohio under Project
Thunderstorm" details of which
were disclosed today.
After turbulence, the report listed
hail and icing of the craft as being
more dangerous than lightning.
Though lightning ranks fourth
in thunderstorm flying obstacles"
the report stated, "it is perhaps the
greatest psychological hazard to
pilots. Pilots reported that the
brilliant flash, the pungent smell of
the ozone, and the accompanying
thunder is considerably magnified
in the immediate vicinity. Light
ming. particularly at night, may
blind a pilot temporarily"
Series of Solid JoIts.
However, because of its effect on
the aircraft and the pilot turbu-
lence was generally accepted as the
thunderstorm's greatest hazard. A
series of solid jolts-"the work of
sharp-edged gusts with steep gradi-
ents'-will shake an airplane like
an automobile riding over railroad
ties, the pilots found.
One pilot report that one jolt
to his plane was so severe that
I thought I had collided with an
other plane, and I was unable to
keep my hands on the controls,
they banged around so much"
The project also reported on
drafts-the huge columns Of rapidly
rising or descending air which are
an integral part of Thunderstorm
structure-and concluded that, while
the effects were spectacular from a
pilots viewpoint, they were not too
important in relation to the strain
on the plane itself.
There has been much talk about
the possibility of downdraft fore
ing an airplane either into the
ground or dangerously close to it,"
the report said. Data obtained
during the project discounts this
possibility, since aircraft at the low
est attitudes used during the work
5000 feet-experienced no greater
loss in altitude than 1000 feet.
Downdrafts subsidized when the air.
craft broke clear of the clouds I'M
derfeath the storm"
Pilots who fly into storms were
advised to allow their craft to ride"
the storm, taking corrective action
only in cases when major or dan
gerous displacements of the aircraft
seemed to be occurring" Pilots who
attempted to maintain constant
headings or attitudes by use of con-
trolls during passage through turbu-
lence were found to impose as

much as 20 per cent greater strain

Warned on Static Sound.
Pilots were warned that, when St.
Elmo's fire and precipitation static
sounds build up rapidly in intensity,
a lightning discharge is imminent.
They advised that the most danger
Gus lightning conditions existed in
an area of severe static or st. Elmo's
fire.
One pilot reported radio static
built up in intensity until he could
not keep his earphones close to his
ears. Then he heard what sounded
like the sharp burst of q. German
88-mm. gun and sheet of fame
enveloped his cockpit,

MY airspeed indicator jumped
from 100 to 500 piles per hour and
stayed there" he said. Everything
looked a bit fuzzy. I just let the
airplane buck through. After what
seemed hours, the, airspeed came
back to normal"
Actually film records showed the
indicator maintained an erroneous
500 miles per hour reading for ap-
proximately 80 seconds.
The flights indicated that there
was little likelihood of direct light
ming strikes injuring the occupants
Of metal aircraft, unless there was a
deficient bonding of thhe metallic
parts. During the project 20 light
ming strikes were recorded with no

SUN VALLEY, Idaho, May 29.-
A few days rest are on the schedule
for Secretary of State Marshall but
right now he's busy organizing a
softball team.
The wartime Chief Of Staff, Mrs.
Marshall and his aide, Brig. Gen.
Marshall Carter, arrived this after
noon from Portland in an Army
C-47.
Softball was entered on the gen.
erals schedule after he heard
about a resort team known as the
"Sizzlers." The "Sizzlers" are the
pride of w. P. Rogers, manager of
the Sun Valley resort, and he loudly
praised their diamond talents to
Gen. Marshall.
Gen. Marshall carefully sized up
the situation like any old cam
paigner and then issued a challenge.
He is selecting a team to meet
the "Sizzlers" tomorrow afternoon.
