About This Item
New York: Signet Books, 1963. This 4.25 x 7 softcover has 200 pages. From manned spaceflight and the malevolent regin of computer Hal in 2001, we turn back to Mark I, the entirely real and highly caprisious radar system that saved more than on flier's life.. Soft Cover. Very Good.
Synopsis
Glide Path is a novel by Arthur C. Clarke, published in 1963. Clarke's only non-science fiction novel, it is set during World War II, and tells a fictionalized version of the development of the radar-based ground-controlled approach (called "ground-controlled descent" in the novel) aircraft landing system. It is based on Clarke's own wartime service with the Royal Air Force, during which he worked on the GCA project.
