The authors of this report profess a firm belief that a fleet of Naval aircraft on a mission can and should be commanded by well informed officers located aboard a plane or planes engaged in the assigned mission. This report intends to show that future air warfare will necessitate the airborne command system operating independently of surface administration. It advocates the assignment of an airplane to each fleet of aircraft for the sole purpose of accommodating the officers issuing the necessary commands.
