8 FLIGHT 18 JUNE 1954 all weather is Javelin weather Mo. 3 ofa Series Weather map symbol for Cirrus CIRRUS. Although they do not themselves interfere with flying, since no turbulence or icing is experienced, these wisps of cirrus frequently indicate approaching bad weather. Within 300 miles cirrus may change to cirrostratus, through altostratus, to the dangerous nimbostratus. Even so, such weather will not deter the Gloster Javelin which is able to fly and fight at over 50,000 ft. at speeds of between 600-700 m.p.h. The Under-Secretary of State for Air has said " It would be difficult to exaggerate the importance of the all-weather Javelin." GLOSTER AIRCRAFT CO.
