• 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.
