Some lessons and observations experienced during a series of radar simulator courses in the period of one year are listed below:
1. The practice of plotting is generally favoured by the students and they learn quickly how to determine which targets are of concern and should be plotted and which targets may be rejected. It has to be pointed out fairly often that recordings should be taken down in an orderly manner and that—besides the time, bearing and range of a target—the heading and speed (or log reading) of the observing vessel should be written down with each set of observations.

The Maritime Safety Committee of the Inter-Governmental Maritime Consultative Organization considered the Report of the Dover Strait Working Group set up by the British, French and German Institutes of Navigation, at its session which ended on 25 January. Members of the Safety Committee were, in general, in agreement with the recommendations of the Group that a system of routing should be established and that the navigational marks and other aids in the Strait should be improved. The Committee considered, however, that the report required further study by governments before definite views could be formed; account would also have to be taken of the result of the enquiry now being addressed to masters of ships by the International Chamber of Shipping through its members.
