No . 8, 507 yards, par 4 : A blind landing area off the tee will challenge players to keep their tee shots left to avoid a severe drop into dunes, bunkers and Lake Michigan.

The only other systems still in use are aviation aids, which are also being turned off for long-range navigation while new differential GPS systems are being deployed to provide the local accuracy needed for blind landings.

After the war the airfield was used for some experimental work by the RAF with Avro Lancasters being based there, dropping Grand Slam bombs on Orford Ness, and the Blind Landing Experiment Unit was located there.

*1934 Fank Akers made a hooded landing in an OJ-2 at College Park, Maryland, in the first demonstration of the blind landing system intended for carrier use and under development by the Washington Institute of Technology.

Conway also wrote " Blind Landings " ( 2007 ) and he is a co-author of a secondary-level education text entitled " Science and Exploration " ( 2007 ) . " Atmospheric Science at NASA " was published in 2008.

Research during the first few years at BLEU led to the conclusion that a promising approach to blind landing would be a fully automatic system, and to the definition of the requirements for such a system, later designated " Autoland ".

The Ta 152 also featured the FuG 16ZY and FuG 25a radio equipment ( some aircraft were issued with FuG 125 Hermine D / F for navigation and blind landing, LGW-Siemens K 23 autopilot, and a heated armorglass windscreen for bad-weather operations ).

This was not a problem for blind landing, where the distance covered by the fan-shaped beams decreased as the aircraft approached the transmitters, but for use in the bombing role this would be reversed, and the system would have maximum inaccuracy over the target.

*1958 A USAF Douglas RB-66B-DL Destroyer, 54-422, c / n 44722, of the 10th Tactical Reconnaissance Wing, crashes in an open field four miles ( 6 km ) from RAF Sculthorpe, UK, while making a blind landing as part of a routine training flight.

The most outstanding of these achievements was the invention of an electronic aid to navigation and blind landings, considered so vital to the Third Reich that upon being patented was declared a military secret, which Landsberg was determined to destroy as a Nazi weapon ( he was successful ).
