Extract

Until the past few years inertia navigation has been a little known subject due to a cloak of security; but recently a number of informative reports and articles have been published, notably those by Adams, Schnerb, and Klass, all published during 1956. Moreover, many of the components of inertial systems have emerged from the early development stage, during which they were largely monitored by military agencies, and may now be purchased with a guaranteed performance specification.

*

A paper originally given in Paris in May 1957 at the Aeronautical Congress organised by O.N.E.R.A. Although this paper has been published by O.N.E.R.A. in the Proceedings of the Conference it is understood to have had a limited circulation only and is reprinted in the Journal as it is one of the comparatively few British papers available on this subject.
