This book was released on 1980 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents preliminary results of a flight test evaluation of a radar cursor technique to be used as an aid in acquiring and tracking the desired ground track during airborne radar approaches. The test was performed using a Sikorsky CH-53A helicopter on loan from NASA and based at NAFEC. The airborne radar system used was a BENDIX RDR-1400A modified to electronically produce a radar cursor display of course error. Airborne radar approaches were made to an offshore and an airport test environment located within a 60 nautical mile radius of NAFEC. Systems Control, Inc. (SCI), provided contractor services in the areas of test planning, data reduction, and final report preparation. The specific purpose of the test was to evaluate the practical utility of the radar cursor as an aid to performing airborne radar approaches. The preliminary conclusion of this test was that the use of the radar cursor improved course acquisition and ground tracking significantly with pilotage errors and total system cross-track errors reduced by one-half or better. The radar cursor technique showed potential in reducing airspace requirements for airborne radar approaches. SCI is presently completing data reduction and analysis and will publish a final report in the near future. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This bibliography has been assembled as an aid to those who are interested in research, engineering, and development pertaining to vertical flight aircraft (including helicopters, tiltrotor, and tiltwing vehicles) and their integration into the National Airspace System (NAS). The intended audience includes people within the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), in industry, and in state and local governments Reports in this bibliography are documents specifically related, in whole or in pan to vertical flight aircraft and the infrastructure that supports their operation in the National Airspace System (NAS). These documents have generally been sponsored or authored by the research, engineering, and development elements of the FAA. This is the eighth and probably the last version of this bibliography. It addresses approximately 440 reports published from 1962 to 2001.

This book was released on 1972 with total page 7 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the year three major objectives were accomplished: an evaluation of airborne radar systems for possible detection of birds aloft, an evaluation of the FAA airport surveillance radar (ASR-4) for monitoring bird movements in the vicinity of airports, and an evaluation of the precision approach radar (PAR) or ground control approach (GCA) radars for monitoring bird movements through airport landing corridors. The precision approach radar or ground control approach radar along with the airport surveillance radar were found to provide all the necessary data to avoid bird/aircrarft collisions. Furthermore, the flight controllers are in contact with the pilots and can warn them of dangerous concentrations of birds in their flight paths.
