In this thesis, we examine the possibility of implementing an instrument approach procedure at an uncontrolled airport. Our focus is on airports with non-instrument runways, primarily used by general aviation aircraft. A significant emphasis is placed on the presence or absence of air traffic services in the airspaces where these airports are typically located. In the first part of the thesis, we analyze the risks associated with the introduction of such a procedure and present mitigation measures to ensure an adequate level of safety for its implementation.
In the second part of the thesis, we concentrate on the practical application of the examined theory. The aim is to propose a draft instrument approach procedure for Lesce Airport. To achieve this, we first study a foreign case that is comparable to our airport in terms of location and operational characteristics. Our findings indicate that the implementation of an instrument approach procedure is feasible with appropriate safety measures and is commonly practiced abroad. However, while the introduction of such a procedure at Lesce Airport is technically possible, it presents challenges due to the proximity of mountainous terrain and potential conflicts with the nearby controlled airspace of Jože Pučnik Airport.
