- Definição2
- A radio aid to navigation intended to facilitate aircraft in landing. It provides lateral and vertical guidance to the optimum point of landing. The various components of an instrument landing system are the localizer, which guides the aircraft to the centerline of the runway; a glide-slope transmitter, which guides the aircraft along the required guide path; outer and inner markers, which indicate to the aircraft that it is passing overhead them; and the airport lighting system.

Category III: a.IIIA.-An ILS approach procedure which provides for approach without a decision height minimum and with runway visual range of not less than 700 feet. b.IIIB.-An ILS approach procedure which provides for approach without a decision height minimum and with runway visual range of not less than 150 feet. c.IIIC.-An ILS approach procedure which provides for approach without a decision height minimum and without runway visual range minimum.
- Nota adicional3
- ILS (instrument landing systems) are categorized according to their capability to provide for approach to a height above touchdown (HAT)/decision height (DH) and RVR (runway visual range).
- Nota adicional4
- Information regarding this term is a result of researches developed by DECEA in cooperation with ANAC.
- Contexto
- The National Transportation Safety Board determined that the probable cause of this incident was the unavailability to the flightcrew of timely information concerning a rapidly changing weather environment along the instrument landing system final approach course.
