Instrument approach and landing is conducted at low altitudes where fuel consumption for jet aircraft is high; missed low visibility instrument approach caused by any one of several factors, requires enormous fuel reserves for second approach, at expense of payload; microwave region (3000 to 10,000 Mc, or possibly 25,000 Mc) offers greatest hope for eventual solution of radio part of problem; visual aids; cockpit instrumentation; symbolic vs pictorial.
