Abstract:

This report describes test procedures and results of series of tests designed to identify microwave landing system (MLS) heliport flight inspection procedures. The tests, conducted in November 1985, demonstrated the feasibility of using helicopter to perform some portion of the flight inspection of the MLS at heliports. Significant findings included the fact that radio theodolite techniques could be used for tracking a helicopter not equipped with stability augmentation equipment. Constituent parts of portable flight inspection package were also identified and tested.
