News: Bristol first airport to introduce GPS arrival routes

pocketgpsworld.com
New arrival routes for Bristol Airport will see it become the first major UK Airport using GPS technology.

The system uses the new Performance Based Navigation Standard Terminal Arrival Route (STAR) which replaces the reliance on traditional navigation beacons with satellite navigation technology which will allow for higher precision approaches.

Previously aircraft navigated between ground based beacons but the new GPS technology will allow for more reliable and predictable flight paths that allow for a reduction in emissions, an increase in efficiency and a reduction in noise to local communities.
