Luftfartstilsynet (Norwegian Civil Aviation Authority) (2002-2006)

Member of an Integrity Panel studying a proposed Special Category I (SCAT1) aircraft instrument landing system. Special Category I (SCAT1) systems employ GPS for aircraft instrument approaches using the technique known as “local area augmentation”, with a reference station at the airport to enhance the system’s accuracy and integrity. They are of particular value at airfields where it is impossible to install a conventional instrument landing system (ILS) because the topography of the site is unsuitable. The members of this Integrity Panel were experts charged with examining in detail the design of ground and airborne equipment developed by certain manufacturers in order to certify the safety of the proposed system. This development culminated in late 2007 in the world’s first precision instrument approach to touchdown by a passenger-carrying aircraft using a global navigation satellite system (GNSS).
