"ILS RWY 19 – provides a Precision Approach to Runway 19 to a decision height of 500 ft ASL (200 ft AGL) to a minimum visibility of 3/4 of a mile, utilizing the IGK localizer and associated glidepath as well as the ART VORTAC and YGK NDB for
intermediate and final approach fixes respectively." (visit link)

"The Instrument Landing System (ILS) is owned by the City of Kingston; however, it is
operated and maintained by Nav Canada.
The ILS has been described as nearing the end of its useful life and it is becoming more
challenging to find replacement parts. In correspondence received from Nav Canada, a
positive business case does not exist for the replacement of the current ILS at their cost.
It is their expectation, given the forecast availability of Wide Area Augmentation System
(WAAS), that this facility will be replaced with precision approach procedures compatible
with this technology in the future." (visit link)
