VFR LIGHTED FLYWAYS IN THE TCA ENVIRONMENT
The general objectives of this study were to develop, fabricate, and evaluate a marker system which would function successfully for a visual flight rule (VFR) flyway. The specific study objectives include the following: 1. Evaluate the marker and light systems presently available which could function successfully for a VFR flyway. 2. Develop and fabricate a prototype flyway marker which will function in the field environment. 3. Conduct primary field evaluations of the flyway marker. 4. Prepare a final report for the study.
