Description:
Radio Mirror (later known as Radio and Television Mirror) was a fan magazine for radio listeners and later TV viewers that includes profiles of the stars, visits to radio and television studios, and program listings.

He switched on his equipment for a ground control approach and signalled the tower that he was coming in. The tower radioed the wind direction and Commander Godfrey swung the plane that way, cutting altitude in a slow glide. So far, he was literally on the beam and mentally, his. fingers were crossed. In a few moments the landing gear touched the ground and Godfrey promptly cut the power and slowly applied brake pressure which brought the plane to a halt. He had done it! Godfrey was promptly awarded the prized green card signifying that he was an all-weather fly boy.
