|
|
Hi there!!!! i'm having trouble maintaining the correct glide slope angle on final while flying an ILS approach. what is the correct angle? on my approach plates it only shows the altitudes and distances between each intersection but not the angle. Can get some help? Also, what's the approach button for? How to use it? I usually fly in 737-800. Here's a link of one of my approach plates:
