Flight 141 did take off, but because it took off too long, the plane hit a localizer building and plunged to the ocean.

The DME identity is 1, 350 Hz to differentiate itself from the 1, 020 Hz tone of the VOR or the ILS localizer.

A localizer ( like a glideslope ) works as a " cooperation " between the transmitting airport runway and the receiving cockpit instruments.

In some cases, a course projected by localizer is at an angle to the runway ( usually due to obstructions near the airport ).

In 1983 Alford was inducted into the National Inventors Hall of Fame for his invention of the Localizer Antenna System which guides aircraft during landings.

On the other hand, it was extremely disturbing that the deflection sensitivity of the localizer had been set more than 50 % too high.
48.
While the plane was tracking the localizer course to the runway, it descended prematurely and collided with a knoll, short of the runway.
49.
At 18 : 30 the flight was advised to turn left and join the localizer course at or above for a runway 5L ILS approach.
