    --> Yak-List message posted by: "Ernie" <ernest.martinez@oracle.com> I would check out edmond scientific for Fresnel Lenses (not sure if I spelled it right). They have all sorts of optics stuff that might help.

Well, if one is going to depend on it and one does not want to be sued by some jerk who can't fly a straight line to the runway so he claims it is the fault of your VASI, I would get a commercial unit and install it properly. That way you can claim in the courtroom you performed due diligence.

    Subject: VASI
    --> Yak-List message posted by: "Doug Sapp" <rvfltd@televar.com> Jay, Some years ago I bought a portable VASI system that was used by the Navy, it is very small and was low cost as I recall. It's buried in my "stuff" somewhere in one of my hangers so I cannot get you the info off the boxes, but it might pay you to check out the larger surplus dealers.
