[Antennas] Studies of propagation and signal strength of aviation antennas

[Henry Mei'l's]

Rule of thumb says the higher the better - so I'd like to see HF radio communication studies/statistics for airborne-to-ground.
Also, were trailed wire antennas (much) better tha fuelsage mounted ones?

No doubt the military and commercial airlines did this kind of study back when HF was common in aircraft communications.

I've worked very few airborne stations, and didn't listen very often to aviation HF channels, so I can't judge.
