Thales win Liverpool Airport contract
22.08.08
Thales UK has announced the signing of a contract to supply and install a Cat III 420 Instrument Landing System (ILS) and 415 Distance Measuring Equipment (DME) to Liverpool Airport. The order means that the company now has sold more than 25 Thales 420 ILS systems to the Ministry of Defence and Regional Airports in the UK.
Liverpool Airport is replacing its existing ILS/DME installation and chose Thales latest generation equipment, enabling them to provide a CATIII landing capability. Chris Kelly, Head of Air Traffic Services for the Peel Airports Group said: 'Liverpool John Lennon Airport is pleased to have selected Thales UK to supply and install a new CATIII ILS/DME system that will replace the current CATII ILS for runway 27. This upgrade continues our investment in improvements in the airport's airfield infrastructure and is a part of a programme of work to offer ILS CATIII landing operations at Liverpool Airport.'
