When a pilot travels by airplane from his aerodrome to a point beyond the horizon, he has need of navigation by means of map and compass. The problem of passing from one point to another is evidently one of distance and direction. In both respects the pilot is liable to go wrong. Without proper care he may go many miles out of the way either by going too far or by taking the wrong course. He may even land within the German lines; he may mistake a German aerodrome for his own; he may land at his own aerodrome and think that he is lost. At any rate, without proper care he is apt not to accomplish his mission.
