Turning night into day for the air mail pilot. These remarkable photographs show the operation of the lighting system at Fort Crook field The upper picture shows the huge searchlight which cuts into the blackness of
midnight and guides the flyer to the landing field. Some idea of the power of this searchlight is shown by the flash of the light on the small house at the extreme left of the photograph. This house is three-quarters
of a mHe from the searchlight. The small lights along the path of the searchlight are small boundary lights. The mail flyer manipulates his plane to touch ground in that part of the field between two rows of these
boundary lights. The lower picture shows the same scene with the field flood light coming on. As the pUot approaches the landing field this flood light is turned on and as t* blanket of light illuminates the field the big
searchlight is shut off. The searchlight is so powerful it would blind the pilot should he get directly in its path. Photos by Dewell.
