According to the paperwork submitted for review and prior on file records for the Federal Aviation Administration Aeronautical Study No. 2009 -AEA- 3127 -OE for this site, the FAA determined that co- location on the existing tower would not exceed obstruction standards and would not be a hazard to air navigation providing conditions are met as outlined on page three of four for the referenced study. (See attached.) The FAA study for this site does not provide allowance to transmit on the frequencies of 978 MHz or 109D MHz until a formal frequency transmit license from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is obtained prior to on -air operations on those frequencies. Please forward a copy of the transmit license to this office for record prior to operation of these frequencies. Providing you meet the stated condition required by the FAA and all local, State and Federal regulations, the Winchester Regional Airport Authority concurs with the proposed site plan. Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to review these plans. Should you have questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. Sincerely, Serena R.

Based on this evaluation, marking and lighting are not necessary for aviation safety. However, if marking and/or lighting are accomplished on a voluntary basis, we recommend it be installed and maintained in accordance with FAA Advisory circular 70/7460 -1 K Change 2. This determination is based, in part, on the foregoing description which includes specific coordinates, heights, frequency(ies) and power. Any changes in coordinates , heights, and frequencies or use of greater power will void this determination. Any future construction or alteration, including increase to heights, power, or the addition of other transmitters, requires separate notice to the FAA. This determination does include temporary construction equipment such as cranes, derricks, etc., which may be used during actual construction of the structure. However, this equipment shall not exceed the overall heights as indicated above. Equipment which has a height greater than the studied structure requires separate notice to the FAA. This determination concerns the effect of this structure on the safe and efficient use of navigable airspace by aircraft and does not relieve the sponsor of compliance responsibilities relating to any law, ordinance, or regulation of any Federal, State, or local government body. A copy of this determination will be forwarded to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) because the structure is subject to their licensing authority.

ADS -B Programs ITT Corporation Defense Electronics & Services 12975 Worldgate Drive Herndon, VA 20170 -6003 i Re: Automatic Dependent Surveillance- Broadcast (ADS -B) Contract DTFAWA -07 -C -00067 Dear Mr. Hughes: This letter serves to emphasize to you and your potential partners the importance of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) ADS -B contract which was awarded to ITT Corporation on August 30, 2007. The FAA is undertaking a dramatic modernization of the National Airspace System under a program entitled Next Generation Air Traffic Management Systems (NextOcn). The ADS - B program is the cornerstone of the NextGen. ADS -B will provide technology that in the near term will enhance safety and in the longer term promise significant system capacity and efficiency benefits essential to meeting forecasted increases in air traffic demand. ADS -B is and will remain a high visibility program. Avionics manufacturers and aviation organizations /companies are relying on the FAA to meet the ADS -B implementation schedule. The FAA has begun full scale development of the ADS -B system Arith the award of the ITT contract and veil l begin nation wide deployment in the near term. Any support that can be.given to ITT in the development and fielding of ADS -B infrastructure is strongly encouraged. The FAA considers this program an opportunity to significantly benefit the nation's transportation infrastructure with new technology. It is believed that just as in the introduction of the internet, there will be many spin -off opportunities. 4in-1Day Vice President !
