Abstract: | Instrument approach designs and flight-test results using the microwave landing system (MLS) are presented. A general-aviation aircraft was flown on linear computed centerline and curved approach paths with MLS guidance displayed on basic course-deviation indicator and horizontal situation indicator instruments. Approach performance was documented using a ground tracker system, recording three-dimensional position information. These tests demonstrated the flyability of such advanced paths with basic cockpit instrumentation |
