recent thread has me wondering:
what's the shortest runway you've encountered with an ILS? About the shortest I can think of offhand is the ILS 24 at RID (Richmond, Indiana), 5500 ft. We may have been somewhere w/ a shorter runway served by an ILS, but probably didn't fly an ILS and I don't remember Anyone else? Thanks, Sydney |

what's the shortest runway you've encountered with an ILS? About 600 feet -- CV 41 USS Midway. I would have said CVT 16 USS Lexington, but I can't ever remember the ILS working on Lex... |

Isn't there a minimum runway length to have an ILS, like 4000ft? There might be a minimum but it doesn't appear to be 4000 feet. VVS, 05, 3458, 100, ASPH-F HIE, 10, 3495, 75, ASPH-G PVC, 07, 3500, 100, ASPH-G FCM, 10R, 3909, 75, ASPH-G BTP, 08, 3998, 100, ASPH-F Pavement doesn't seem to be a requirement either.

I forgot to mention that I was looking at runways with full ILS or just localizers. The FAA groups everything under "ILS" http://aviationtoolbox.org/old/ATA-1...ats/Apt_rf.txt L AN 0010 00072 I22 INSTRUMENT LANDING SYSTEM (ILS) TYPE ILS - INSTRUMENT LANDING SYSTEM MLS - MICROWAVE LANDING SYSTEM SDF - SIMPLIFIED DIRECTIONAL FACILITY LOCALIZER - LOCALIZER LDA - LOCALIZER-TYPE DIRECTIONAL AID ISMLS - INTERIM STANDARD MICROWAVE LANDING SYSTEM ILS/DME - INSTRUMENT LANDING SYSTEM/ DISTANCE MEASURING EQUIPMENT SDF/DME - SIMPLIFIED DIRECTIONAL FACILITY DISTANCE MEASURING EQUIPMENT LOC/DME - LOCALIZER/ DISTANCE MEASURING EQUIPMENT LOC/GS - LOCALIZER/GLIDE SLOPE LDA/DME - LOCALIZER-TYPE DIRECTIONAL AID DISTANCE MEASURING EQUIPMENT and I was examining anything with "ILS" or "LOC" in the type. Here's a better list. SXL, 04, 3015, 50, ASPH-F, SDF VVS, 05, 3458, 100, ASPH-F, LOCALIZER HIE, 10, 3495, 75, ASPH-G, LOCALIZER PVC, 07, 3500, 100, ASPH-G, ILS/DME DUT, 12, 3900, 100, ASPH-G, MLS FCM, 10R, 3909, 75, ASPH-G, ILS BTP, 08, 3998, 100, ASPH-F, ILS Hmmm...looks like I should have just gone straight to the ILS file instead of looking at airport/runway info. http://aviationtoolbox.org/old/ATA-1...ats/Ils_rf.txt --kyler |

Hard to believe you can shoot an ILS to Gravel, of course each of those runways mentioned are in Alaska... -Nathan |
