Readers' SBIA Queries

Kop khun krap, Pas.
Merci beaucoup for the info.
I can see that radio and cell phone transmission can use a high point because of other building screening. Radar too. But during bad weather the top of these high buildings are obscured by cloud, so more of a risk IMHO.
There is safety from the EMP, microwaves, on the ground adjacent to a tall transmission point I did read when researching EMP problems with cell phone transmitters, as the waves are almost horizontal.
The higher they go, the more they sway in wind, so could this not produce positioning errors amplified over distance as in Boyle's law. ?
The answers may lie on a specialist aviation list. Maybe on yahoogroups.com.

I think a tall control tower do have the advantages as airport land is getting larger and larger nowadays but tallest in the world no... except for it's name... if it's so important a crazy bump would add another 2 meters atop the KLIA's control tower just after NBIA's launching
