But a combination of airline reluctance to invest and the rise of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) resulted in its not being adopted in civil aviation. At the time ILS and MLS were the only standardized systems in Civil Aviation that meet requirements for Category III automated landings.[25] The first Category III MLS for civil aviation was commissioned at Heathrow airport in March 2009 and removed from service in 2017.[26] Transponder Landing System (TLS) can be used where a conventional ILS cannot work or is not cost-effective. Localizer Performance with Vertical guidance (LPV) is based on the Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS), LPV has similar minima to ILS for appropriately equipped aircraft.
