Landing Procedures
Familiarization
The following list presents various glideslope/AOA indications you can expect to see and the associated
corrections required to adjust back to the on-speed and centered ball approach. Remember, the glides-
lope is wedge shaped and progressively narrows as you get closer to the runway, so you must decrease
the magnitude of a correction for an equivalent amount of ball movement as you approach touchdown.
Figure 23 graphically depicts the glideslope corrections required during various situations.
