As the hitherto anonymous reviser who prepared the current G.H.A. edition of Martelli's Tables, was interested, instructed and surprised by Captain Cotter's article in the Forum on this subject. I was surprised that he should write of them as if they were things of the past. In fact they are available off the shelf at my local chart agents, and no doubt elsewhere, so a demand presumably exists today, and they are in current use. From some of the comments which he makes, and the extract from Table 5 which he reproduces, it appears that he has not seen the current edition.
