  • Abstract
    THE ELECTRICAL system plays a very important part in present-day airplanes. In addition to lighting the plane and starting the engines, it is required to furnish power for radio, instruments, landing gear, flaps, and remote operations. The fact that electrical operation leads to more convenient and often lighter installations makes it desirable to use it whenever applicable.
