Future of Airlines Is Unlimited
Postwar use of military aviation radio and electronics, including automatic pilots and altitude indicators, is seen by Col. Edgar S. Gorrell as enabling revolutionary civil air transport, with uniform federal regulation to replace state controls. He notes the shift from battlefield routing to ground-controlled air logistics and predicts regional dispatchers guiding cross-country flight as part of a world-spanning cargo system. The Lea Bailey bill seeks federal oversight to harness these advances and align laws with wartime tech.
