Computation of Probability of Visual Detection in Air Interception

Abstract

This addendum is an extension of work previously presented and is to be used in conjunction with the theory contained therein. It presents a method and associated working graphs which enable one to calculate the probability of visual detection of a target aircraft by an airborne observer, under daylight conditions of illumination, for a wide range of the parameters involved.
