5500,000 Radar Trainer Ready Here

A new type t ra iner designed to teach pilots and controlers the technique of fighting blind will be ready for uae the first of next week. The only one of its type iu the Navy.- the new "Operational Tra iner ," as it is called, cost 5u0,000 iollars.

I t is undergoing Its final prep under the experienced eyes of Mr. O. M Green, Field Engineer , of the Western Elec t r ic Co., and Mr. G. L. Wickiand, Technician, of Stavid Engineering Corp., both represen-tatives of the Office of Naval Re--earch. Special Devices Center.

The cockpit of the t ra iner is an exact dupl ica te of the F6F "Hell-'•-at." The st ick and rudder pres-sures a re the same as the F6F and ~ince the sensa t ions the pilot gets while flying on ins t ruments a re usually limited t o ' rough air. the •.rainer has been constructed on a fixed baae

I t gives the feeling of flying in smooth a i r , but i ts desingners have «one a - s t e p f a r t h e r in trying to s imilate ac tua l condit ions by hav-ing the fo rces on the controls in-crease with speed, a charac ter -istic absent f rom it predecessors. No lag in control movements, re-duces the tendancy to fight the machine.
