Description:

As part of its Aging Aircraft Research Program the Federal Aviation Administration is establishing a passive system of measuring aircraft landing contact parameters at commercial airports. This research involves the broader application of recent US NAVY technology used to measure landing contact conditions of Navy carrier aircraft and develop/assess Navy landing loads design criteria. This technique is based on digitizing and analyzing high resolution video images recorded by cameras strategically stationed along the runway apron, , and it does not require the installation of any instrumentation on the aircraft or changes to normal aircraft operating procedures. This report describes the application of the Navy's latest procedures for precisely determining the kinematics of typical commercial aircraft landings and provides the results of a demonstration survey conducted at the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Technical Center in June 1992. In addition, the proposed runway camera configuration for a production landing survey at a high volume airport is presented.
