Abstract:The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) entered into a Reimbursable Agreement with the New Hampshire Department of Transportation,
Division of Aeronautics to investigate the feasibility of establishing a full Instrument Landing System (ILS) on Runway 10 at the Mount Washington
Regional Airport in Whitefield, New Hampshire. The purpose of the study was to evaluate whether a full ILS system could be successfully sited at
the Airport given the terrain and airfield layout limitations, and to provide a cost estimate for the project.
The FAA determined that an End Fire Glide Slope (EFGS) can be properly sited and would provide the best results for a precision approach when
combined with new Localizer and DME antenna systems. The FAA recommends proceeding to field test and flight check the full EFGS antenna
system to verify the math modeling engineering analysis. Cost estimates are provided in section 9 of this report.
