Question

The ILS comprises two main components. Which is the correct statement? While the glideslope has the dual capacity of presenting the pilot with an ideal descent angle and providing directional guidance aligned with the centerline of the runway, the localizer is only capable of presenting the pilot with an ideal descent angle. b. The localizer presents the pilot with an ideal descent angle. The glideslope provides directional guidance aligned with the centerline of the runway. c. While the localizer has the dual capacity of presenting the pilot with an ideal descent angle and providing directional guidance aligned with the centerline of the runway, the glideslope is only capable of presenting the pilot with an ideal descent angle. d. The localizer provides directional guidance aligned with the centerline of the runway. The glideslope presents the pilot with an ideal descent angle. Both the localizer and the glideslope have dual capabilities of presenting the pilot with an ideal descent angle and providing directional guidance aligned with the centerline of the runway.

Answer 1

Option d is the answer.ILS is nothing but Instrument Landing System.It is a standard precision landing aid of International Civil Aviation Organisation.It provides accurate azimuth and descent guiidance signals ,these in turn were very much important for an aircraft in its landing at normal or adverse weather conditions.It has two main components.

1.Localizer-it provides the lateral guidance or azimuth.it is alligned with centerline of the runway.

2.Glide path- it provides vertical guidance to the pilot during the approach.It gives the descent angle.
