Navigation on some recent R.A.F. Flights in High Latitudes

It is now seven years since the first R.A.F. polar flight was carried out by Aries , a Lancastrian aircraft from the Empire Air Navigation School; during that period air operations in Arctic regions have become an every day occurrence. This paper describes a series of flights undertaken recently by...
