Davee Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 (edited) Hi Guys, Just a question if any of you can confirm the following: During an ILS approach, the small box that indicates if you are above or below the glide-slope or left or right of the glide-slope seems to have the horizontal arrows indicating the direction you need to steer - reversed. The vertical arrows point down if you are above the glide-slope indicating you need to descend - correct. But . . . . the horizontal indicators point in the opposite direction you need to go to. With the box on the left (you are on the right of the glide-slope) the arrow is pointing to the right - away from the direction you need to go. Thanks, Cats . . . Edited May 31, 2016 by Catseye

Davee Posted June 3, 2016 Author Posted June 3, 2016 I'll check. Hi Zeus, Any confirmation to my observation? I had another look today and I'm still convinced of the reversal. Thanks, Cats . . . .

Zeus67 Posted June 3, 2016 Posted June 3, 2016 I have not done any work on the ILS at this time. I will check on it next week. I am finishing with the PPA right now.
