Forward: Upon arrival in the China-Burma-India Theater of Operations, personnel will be aware that flying safety regulations and procedures within the interior, are comparable to those in effect within the United States. Extensive non-operational flights in this theater are going on twenty-four hours per day. For this reason, flying control is essential. It is administered by the Air Transport Command Operations using Army Airways Communication System facilities. British and American briefing materials: radio aids, maps, communication procedures, restrictions, regulations, cross-country facilities, accommodations, etc., are available within the theater. This information is supplied by briefing officers prior to departure of any flight in the form of cross-country hand books for pilots, navigators and radio operators. These books are constantly being revised and kept up to date. Material is prepared simply and understandably. Recently, combined operations of allied forces have been established under SEAC (South East Asia Command). Under this command all British and American procedures are being combined into a standardized system which will simplify methods of operations, control and communications against our mutual enemy. This theater is in an expanding stage of development and within a short time installations of now equipment and procedures will be completed. Section I: pilots, navigators and glider pilots. Section II: communications, radio operators.
