Sept. 8, 2010 - Brandon Municipal Airport Instrument Landing System

Brandon, MB – The General Manager of Operational Services for the City of Brandon is pleased to announce the Instrument Landing System (ILS) for the Brandon Municipal Airport is now installed, pending Nav Canada approval and publication in early 2011.

The Brandon Municipal Airport would like to thank Approach Navigation Systems Inc. for completing this project in a timely, professional manner. “Without all their assistance in completing this project including preliminary plans, this ILS project would not have been possible” said Mr. Sage. Approach Navigation Systems Inc. has a wealth of knowledge in this area of the aviation industry and the Brandon Municipal Airport is very fortunate to have this resource.

The Federal, Provincial and Municipal Governments contribution in the investment of an ILS at The Brandon Municipal Airport will allow the City of Brandon and Southwestern Manitoba the opportunity to improve the long-term economics of this region by diversifying the local economy, providing alternatives to economic barriers for airport development, increased safety for life flights, and enhancing the overall quality of life for residents in the South Western Manitoba Community.
