DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT OF MONTREAL AND OTTAWA STOLPORTS

The Canadian Ministry of Transport embarked on a program to provide a downtown-to-downtown scheduled IRR STOL service between Montreal Quebec, and Ottawa, Ontario. As part of the total systems approach to the development of the service, two STOLports were designed and built. Preliminary standards and criteria were developed to enable the design to be carried out. New electronic approach aids and modified visual aids are incorporated into the system. There STOLports began operations in March, 1974.
