Today the term whiteout is [also] often used to describe a blizzard or snowsquall when blowing snow has reduced visibility to a few metres. But this is not a true whiteout. True whiteouts occur mostly in the Arctic and the Antarctic when unbroken snow cover and a uniformly overcast sky combine to produce a solid white glow.

Le second type [de voile blanc], connu sous l'expression temps laiteux, est beaucoup plus insidieux que le premier parce qu'il peut se produire dans des conditions météorologiques de vol à vue sans être accompagné de poudrerie. Le temps laiteux se produit au-dessous d’un ciel dont la couverture nuageuse va de faible à moyenne dans des régions recouvertes de neige et sans traits caractéristiques marqués. Lorsque le soleil se trouve dans une certaine position, ses rayons sont réfléchis dans un mouvement de va-et-vient entre la surface et la couverture nuageuse, et font que tous les contrastes au sol disparaissent sans qu'il n’ y ait de distinction évidente entre le sol et les nuages 5, record 17, French, - voile%20blanc

GEE used a series of transmitters sending out precisely timed signals, and the aircraft using GEE ... examined the time of arrival on an oscilloscope at the navigator's station. If the signal from two stations arrived at the same time, the aircraft must be an equal distance from both transmitters, allowing the navigator to determine a line of position on his chart of all the positions at that distance from both stations. By making similar measurements with other stations, additional lines of position can be produced, leading to a fix. 9, record 19, English, - GEE

Gyroscopic precession. The reaction of a gyro when a force is applied to the spinning wheel. When force is applied to a gyro, the device reacts as if the force had been applied at a point 90 degrees from the point of actual application, in the direction of rotation. Precession affects propellers, which act like gyros, and gyro instruments. Its principle effect is on the heading indicator, which tends to drift over time. 4, record 29, English, - precess
