• Abstract:
  The overall goal of this project is to determine the suitability of Loran-e for airborne navigation using new technology receivers. It is the intent of this project to investigate new areas such as enroute operation in the Mid-West continental U.S. coverage gap, and non-precision approaches in mountainous areas thereby expanding the use of Loran-C. Operational performance of at least four types of production airborne Loran-C receivers will be evaluated. Flight data will be recorded onboard fixed wing aircraft flying enroute, within terminal areas and during non-precision approaches to several airports located throughout the U.S.
