A film about means of attaining accuracy by dive bombers in the United States. Animation shows the trajectory path of a bomb after being released in mid air. The distance that a bomb would fall short of the target, if not compensated for, is called the "trail." A graph depicts the altitude of release of the bomb and the sight angle. Animation explains the concepts. A pilot sets a lead at a target. Animation depicts the importance of the lead at release altitude. Results are illustrated in animation. Consequences of taking a wrong flight path are explained. A graph depicts the means of computing the release altitude and the sight angle. The effect of wind on a diving aircraft as it affects the flight path.
A film about means of attaining accuracy by dive bombers in the United States. Animation depicts the importance of standard runs, at 50 and 70 degree dive angles, to improve the accuracy of bombing a target. A graph depicts the sight angle and release altitude. Wind correction tables. Animation depicts means of lead correction. A dive bomber aircraft in flight dives. A technician speaks over a wireless and looks at the aircraft in flight. Animation depicts the accuracy of half readings in bombing a target area. Smoke rises as a bomb impacts. A technician enters various details in a chart.
