Polished Metal Frangible Glide Path Mast, Feature : Durable

GLIDE PATH MAST DESIGN CRITERIA
ERCON Glide Path Masts have been developed to comply with the ICAO annex 14 Volume-I, for safe and precise aircraft landing and the most recent Frangibility stipulations Detailed in ICAO Aerodrome Design Manual Part6.
All ERCON Glide Path Masts are manufactured from glass fiber & special Polymeric Resin, Coated with a UV resistance PU coat that can be colored to any aviation specification. Each pole has a unique Frangibility by design and material construction system incorporated within the main mast which will break under the impact of an aircraft.
