ILS Procedures
4.
Transmits on odd tenths from 108.1 MHz through
111.9 MHz - Aural Morse code identifier will include
the letter " I " preceding the normal 3 letter identifier
NOTE: The localizer sensing equipment displays aboard
the aircraft is four times as sensitive as TACAN and VOR
displays.

GLIDESLOPE SIGNAL
B.
Glideslope transmitter
1.
Produces a navigational signal which provides
vertical guidance for the pilot (glidepath) along the
localizer approach course
NOTE: The ILS beam gradient (glideslope) is
normally set for a 3 degree glidepath. However, the
angle may be set to other gradients due to terrain or
obstacle clearance and/or reception requirements.
NOTE: "Glideslope" is defined as the descent angle
assigned to an approach for a given runway for the
reasons stated above. Normally the term is
associated with the final descent angle of an ILS or
PAR approach. "Glidepath" is defined as that
portion of a precision approach where the glideslope
intersects the localizer beacon of an ILS or FAC of a
PAR.
