Microwave Landing Systems for Heliport Operators, Owners, and Users.

Abstract

This document contains information on the utilization of the Microwave Landing System (MLS) at heliports and helipads. It was designed to familiarize operators and users with the features of the MLS and its capabilities in supporting heliport operations. For this reason the major sections of the document present information on MLS siting, operational characteristics, selecting and specifying an MLS system. In addition, other sections provide additional MLS information to familiarize pilots with MLS avionics, pilot training requirements and aircraft performance considerations. (Author)
