In the January 1966 edition of this Journal Captain Wylie has given a lucid summary of the factors involved in the presentation on radar displays of true and relative motion. He also stated a conclusion on the combinations of display and ancillary equipment which he considers best satisfy the requirements for use when plotting to avoid collision at sea. Whilst acknowledging with respect all the work he has done to clarify the issues raised on this important but contentious subject over a number of years, a number of us has found it impossible to agree with his latest findings. As these may influence opinion in the shipping industry, the Board of Trade, the Courts of Law and the radar manufacturing industry, both at official and unofficial levels, they should not go unchallenged. Our disagreement concerns the priorities defined for display equipment and the method to be used for plotting. There can be no disagreement on academic principles.
