Abstract:

The overall goal of this project is to determine the suitability of long-range navigation (Loran)-C for airborne area navigation (RNAV) operations in mountainous areas. Operational performance of three types of production airborne Loran-C equipment will be evaluated. Approximately 120 flight data hours will be taken onboard fixed-wing aircraft flying en route within transition and terminal areas, and during non-precision approaches to several airports located in mountainous terrain.
