Each ILS has its own frequency (i.e. 110.10). I pilot dials this frequency in either the NAV1 or NAV 2 part of his radio. Once the plane reads the signals, he will engage the LOC (Localizer) and G/S (glide slope) autopilots, which will guide him to the runway.

Note: Sometimes the Glide Slope autopilot will read APP instead of G/S.

How do pilots use ILS for landing and aircraft?

Pilots use the Instrument Landing System (ILS) to assist in landing aircraft, particularly in low visibility conditions. ILS provides precise lateral (localizer) and vertical (glideslope) guidance, allowing pilots to align the aircraft with the runway and maintain the correct descent angle. During the approach, the aircraft’s instruments display signals from ground-based ILS equipment, enabling pilots to make necessary adjustments to ensure a safe landing. This system enhances accuracy and safety during the critical landing phase.

What is Category 1 Instrument Landing System?

Category 1 Instrument Landing System (ILS) is a precision approach system used for landing aircraft in reduced visibility conditions. It provides both horizontal and vertical guidance to help pilots align the aircraft with the runway for landing. Category 1 ILS allows for a decision height of 200 feet and a minimum visibility of 1,800 feet for most commercial aircraft.

What airfield markings designates the boundary of the iLs navigation?

The boundary of the Instrument Landing System (ILS) navigation is designated by the ILS critical area markings. These are typically depicted as two solid yellow lines with a dashed yellow line between them, forming a box around the ILS localizer antenna. The markings indicate the area that must remain clear during approaches to ensure the integrity of the ILS signal. Additionally, when the ILS is in use, aircraft are required to avoid taxiing into this area to prevent signal interference.

What is an ILS approach?

The Instrument Landing System (ILS) is a ground-based instrument approach system that provides precision guidance to an aircraft approaching a runway, using a combination of radio signals and, in many cases, high-intensity lighting arrays to enable a safe landing during instrument meteorologic condition (IMC) such as low ceilings or reduced visibility due to fog, rain, or blowing snow Instrument Approach Procedure charts (or "approach plates") are published for each ILS approach, providing pilots with the needed information to fly an ILS approach during instrument flight rules (IFR) operations, including the radio frequencies used by the ILS components or navaids and the minimum visibility requirements prescribed for the specific approach.
