Australian Aviation brings word that the long awaited terminal area radar and instrument landing system has been turned on atop Mount Majura for Canberra Airport:
The new terminal area radar on Mount Majura was commissioned in May, and required a temporary radar to be erected at Sandra’s View to maintain aircraft safety while the new radar was constructed.
The radar replacement followed an upgrade by Airservices to the ILS at the airport, which now enables pilots to navigate to the runway during reduced visibility conditions
