Abstract :
The American public is rapidly becoming air-minded, and the result is that aviation is advancing faster than any previous method of transportation. Like all other modes of travel, if aviation is to succeed commercially, operations must extend into the night. Night flying necessitates lighted airways and lighted airports. Great progress is being made along those lines. Guided by Government practise, the art of lighting is becoming standardized very rapidly.
