Abstract
This study investigates the impact of atmospheric events and meteorological parameters on aviation activities, accidents, delays, and cancellations, with a specific focus on low visibility during takeoff and landing. The research, conducted at three airports in distinct geographical regions, employs statistical analyses considering various atmospheric events and meteorological conditions. The study evaluates five different instrument landing system (ILS) categories to determine the necessity and type of ILS system required based on point-specific climatic conditions. The study showed that patchy fog and mist reduce visibility below 2,000 metres at airports, while heavy rain and mist affect visibility below 10,000 metres.
