Quick Takes

Porter

As part of the launch of its new Toronto City Airport-Montreal service, Porter installed an additional Instrument Landing System (ILS) at Toronto City Center Airport to ensure schedule reliability in lower visibility conditions. It will also further limit noise exposure around the airport. Porter paid $1.85 million to install the ILS, which allows aircraft to fly a "straight in" approach path over the water. NavCanada installed the new approach which was then approved for use by Transport Canada in time for Porter's October 23 first flight.
