Here the GCA operator sits in semi-darkness providing the thin life-line that will bring the unseen aircraft through the murky skies safely to the ground.

As the aircraft approaches tho field the pilot will request GCA old. He is given a course to fly over the field and as he comes in range of tho GCA unit he will appear as a moving bright spot on one of the radar ' " ' ..

GCA. with its long record of wartime successes was assured a future in peacetime flying. Im- proved models came into use and were made available for both military and civilian airports. As the models improved. so the equip- ment bec more complex. of- fering new challenges to the tech- nicians responsible for mainten- ance.

The power required to operate one of these units would be suf- ficicnt to opsrate a small factor . The power output is measured In thousands of watts. The electrical

circuits are some of the most

The combination of interesting work plus the requirement of new information and knowledge make the life of s Royal Canadian Air Force technician interesting and satisfying. The ground controlled approach system is a good ex- ample of current electronic on- gineering and points the way to unlimited possibilities.

Makes Annual Inspection Of Local Apiary

Dr. C. A. Jaiiiicson. Ottawa. left for Monclon over tho week- end after spending three days at the local Experimental Station re- viewing the various projects un- der study with the.suporlntendsnt and apiarist.

The project concerns the man- agement of package bees. Prac- tically sll bees in P. 13. Island are imported each year from Florida in two pound packages. These have been found to be more productlva than ths over- wintered colonies.

M n n y beekeepcrs experience losses of queens in their package colonies. Some of this at least is duo in Noscma disease. The con- trol of this dlsanu is being in- Vestlsated by the use of tho and- blotlc fumagililn. Results to date have been most promising. y Another important project being investigated is the value of honey bees In the pollination and pro. ductlon of cucumbers. Upwsrds of 500 acres of cucumbers are growen in P.E.I. annually and anything that can be done to in- crease the yield per acre is of
