Description
Summary:The perspective angle instrument used for determining the location of aircraft, its direction and speed, as well as the observed ice objects, their size, contours and concentration is described, pointing out the essential parts of the instrument and their operation. Further, the testing of the instrument and the observation data obtained with the aid of it are analysed so as to present an objective evaluation of the advantages, and also of limitations, in the use of the instrument, when carrying out aerial ice reconnaissance.
