Part 135 CAT III HUD OPS approved
Interlaken Capital Aviation Services in White Plains, N.Y., recently became the first HUD-equipped Part 135 operator to receive Category III qualification

Interlaken Capital Aviation Services in White Plains, N.Y., recently became the first HUD-equipped Part 135 operator to receive Category III qualification (50-ft DH and 700-ft RVR). The approval, obtained in the company’s Falcon 900EX equipped with a Collins Flight Dynamics head-up guidance system, also opens the door for Interlaken to pursue Cat II qualification for Type I airports. The HGS “will enable us to operate safely and without delays in weather that would normally back up area airports for hours,” said Interlaken’s director of flight operations, Ed Goodwin.
