Tennant Creek PAPI Install

Project Overview

The Tennant Creek PAPI installation project objective was to design and construct airport infrastructure for new single-sided, double-ended Precision Approach Path Indicators (PAPI) for runway 07/25 at Tennant Creek Airport. This project was initiated due to outdated equipment concerns at Tennant Creek Airport and was granted funding for the replacement.

Our Advantage

The collaboration between Civiltech Solutions and Avionics played a crucial role in the successful design and construction of the Tennant Creek PAPI installation project. This collaboration allowed us to leverage our collective expertise and resources to develop a considered, cost-effective solution that met the specific needs of Tennant Creek Airport.

This collaboration exemplifies our commitment to providing reliable and innovative solutions to our clients, while also fostering partnerships with industry leaders to deliver exceptional results.

Project Challenge

Challenges arose when securing knowledge about the operation and parts of the old Airfield ground lighting, and Visual Approach Slope Indicator System (AT-VASIS) system. Additionally, it was necessary to have a detailed understanding of the legacy control circuits to ensure that both systems worked in accordance with MoS 139 requirements.

Our Solution

Thorough Understanding: Our team conducted thorough legacy system research, reviewed and analyzed data to design a new system, and ensured quality installation and commissioning of the new PAPI system in accordance with MoS 139.

Project Outcome

The project was completed within the set budget, timeline and met the requirements of MoS139 in maintaining reliability of the replaced system.
