Radiolocation stretches out far beyond Britains shores to send back warnings of
Radiolocation stretches out far beyond Britains shores to send back warnings of the approach of enemy aircraft. A headquarters, the radiolocators messages, and those of the Royal Observer Corps, are communicated instantly to RAF Operations Rooms where they are plotted on large table maps. The Radio Locators are maintained by highly skilled radio mechanics and manned by RAF and WaF Radio operators. Large numbers of these personnel are required by the RAF. Part of the intricate system which comprises each of these nerve centres of Britains air defence is illustrated in this series of photographs. But for the look of concentration on the faces of these girl plotters are the watching officers in the gallery, one would think that they were playing some ingenious game. A scene in an RAF Operations Room at Headquarters Fighter Command, Bentley Priory, Middlesex.
