ILS Approach
Objective: Complete an ILS approach. Continuing the maneuver from the
preceding page, approach coupling (LOC in green) occurs and the glideslope
mode is annunciated as it is coupled (GS in green).
1. The autopilot is following the flight director commands which maintain
localizer centerline tracking. At the outer marker the glideslope pointers are
approximately at midpoint. At the glideslope capture point, glideslope auto-
matically transitions from arm (GS in white) to coupled (GS in green) and alti-
tude hold or other vertical mode is disengaged. The point of glideslope cap-
ture is based on the glideslope deviation and the rate of closure to the beam.
Both pitch and roll are commanded by the flight director to maintain glideslope
and localizer track. The airspeed must be controlled by the pilot via the collec-
tive.
