  • Abstract
    A 1/30th scale model of the international standard instrument-landing-system glidepath is described. Interference effects on the linearity of the path in space are investigated, and a theoretical analysis is applied which confirms the integrity of the model operation. The effects due to aircraft taxying in typical airport regions have been measured using accurate scale models of common civil aircraft. Typical results are presented.
