Abstract
The paper discusses the conditions peculiar to aircraft operation in respect of radio-telegraphy and radio-telephony. Particular stress is given to those conditions not usually met with in other applications of radio-communication and especially to the sources of interference to reception and of danger to the aircraft and its occupants. It concludes with a brief reference to a few special applications of radio in aviation, and while no attempt is made to describe the equipment itself the fundamental principles on which its construction is based are briefly given.
