Description

The company was founded in 1991 to benefit general aviation and expand overall airspace capacity by providing all-weather approach and landing capabilities to regional and municipal airports surrounded by rugged terrain or obstacles, beneath or adjacent to a runway’s final approach path. The Instrument Landing System has provided this capability to larger commercial airports for over forty years, but cannot provide sufficient guidance accuracy where reflections from obstacles interfere with its radio transmissions.

ANPC is a leading provider of all-weather precision approach landing aids, surveillance products and air traffic management solutions for the general, commercial and military aviation markets. Founded in the Northwest, the Company’s products provide airspace safety, efficiency and capacity in a complete ‘airport in a box’ solution.

At ANPC, we also view the integration of our products in our customers’ systems as critically as we regard the performance characteristics of the products themselves. To ensure our employees are up to these challenges we invest heavily in personnel training and development focused on continual individual and institutional learning. In addition, all efforts at ANPC are a result of a well-defined aim, goals, and related commitments, which “cascade” downward and drive all daily actions.
