This report identifies ways in which the Microwave Landing System (MLS) can be utilized to aid helicopter operations. Consideration is given to the following study areas: helicopter instrument approach requirements by type of operation; helicopter instruments by operational area; types of potential approach procedures that could be used by helicopters; helicopter performance considerations during approach, landing and missed approach procedures; ground and airborne MLS equipment; benefits and costs associated with the use of MLS in helicopter operations.
