Flag Officer Submarines minuted that the proposal to arm the Mark VIII with the WE. 177A warhead would, despite the torpedo's performance shortcomings, be " much superior to any present British submarine weapon ..."

However, even without the order of the captain, any member of crew or passenger, can take reasonable measures, when he or she has reasonable grounds to believe that such action is necessary to protect the safety of the aircraft, or of people or property therein.

However, the Luftwaffe also provided volunteers to Spain to test both tactics and aircraft in combat, including the first combat use of the Stuka.

However, the Western Allies ' air-to-ground aircraft were so greatly feared out of proportion to their actual tactical success, that following the lead up to Operation Overlord German vehicle crews showed reluctance to move en masse during daylight.

However, since piston-engined aircraft rely upon magnetos to provide spark to their cylinders rather than a battery powered ignition coil system, this theory is not strongly convincing.

However, carriers have been called upon to be first responders even when conventional land based aircraft were employed.

However, World War II delayed car production with efforts shifted to the construction of vehicle bodies, field guns, aircraft and engines.

However, any aircraft operating under VFR must have the required equipment on board, as described in FAR Part 91. 205 ( which includes instruments necessary for IFR flight ); but the view outside of the aircraft is the primary source for keeping the aircraft straight and level ( orientation ), flying where you intended to fly ( navigation ), and for not hitting anything ( separation ).

However, there are still minimum weather conditions that must be present in order for the aircraft to take off and land ; these will vary according to the kind of operation, the type of navigation aids available, the location and height of terrain and obstructions in the vicinity of the airport, equipment on the aircraft, and the qualifications of the crew.

However, they explained at a meeting of the Reich Industrial Council on 18 September 1941 that the new next generation aircraft had failed to materialise, and obsolescent types had to be continued to keep up with the growing need for replacements.

However, pilots and aircraft do not need to be IFR rated to fly in CVFR areas, which is highly advantageous.

However, the real challenge in aviation is producing FAA-certified alternatives to the standard reciprocating engines that power most small general aviation aircraft.

However, apart from sea transport, mosquitoes have been effectively carried by personal vehicles, delivery trucks, trains and aircraft.

However, instead of comparing engine performance, the gross aircraft performance as complete systems can be compared using first principle definitions of power, force and work with the requisite considerations of constantly changing effects like drag and the mass ( of the fuel ) in both systems.

However, he is best remembered for his work on a series of racing aircraft, which culminated in the Supermarine S. 6B, and the famous Supermarine Spitfire fighter.
