Abstract
These methods were briefly described in the Journal (Vol. 13, No. 2). They were prefaced by some comments designed to draw a comparison between the air and sea problems and collision rates. Statistics are liable to be misleading if not perfectly understood and definitive, and marine collision statistics as much as any. It should be realized that Lloyd's List figures include almost every collision incident to ships of joo tons and over and that a comparable air figure would probably need to include damage to aircraft by aircraft on airfields and in hangars and whether under their own power or in tow.Keywords
