ILS critical area when the tower is closed?
Bob Gardner wrote: Isn't the localizer antenna down at the other end of the runway? If a pilot is departing from the end, the localizer signal should be 700 feet wide at that point. I've had discussions with the FAA's flight check pilots as they are out flying approaches checking our navaids. The critical area can be for both the GS and Loc. Their equipment is so good in the flight check aircraft they can tell if a person walks across the middle of the runway from a 10 mile final.
