An introduction to how the Instrument Landing System (ILS) works. When visibility is too poor to allow for a visual approach to a runway, aircraft use instruments to detect radio signals aligning them with the centerline and proper approach path.

The oldest and still most precise form of instrument approach is the ILS. It involves a glideslope antenna, transmitting a signal giving the aircraft vertical guidance, and a localizer, giving lateral guidance. It can also provide distance information using marker beacons. By following these signals, aircraft can descend to almost the runway threshold before gaining visual sight of the field for landing.
Here's a basic explanation of the Instrument Landing System, using an example approach at Sioux Falls, IA.

Dude - I have watched hundreds of flight instruction videos. I have never seen a more clear flight instruction video with graphics to illustrate everything that needs to be known in a given lessons. There’s always something missing, there’s always some ambiguous speech, there is always some mispronunciation or unclear pronunciation. You are hands-down the best instructor with graphics that I’ve ever experienced. Thank you very much!

@peer_64 8 месяцев назад

You're absolutely right. Even I as not being a pilot of profession could clearly follow this explanation. (almost thinking: I can do that, I could land that plain without eye contact at the runway) 😎👊

after seeing hundreds of instructional videos, this has to rate amongst the top 1%... I am a 2,000 hour gold seal CFI, MEI and CFII out of ISP. will have my students watch everything you have produced. Superb job mate. love the fact that you speak clearly, and have no stupid annoying musak running in the background.

Developed T1 diabetes as a teen. Killed my lifelong dream of being a pilot. Dad was 22-years USAF, so I grew up on flightlines. Trying like hell to figure out MSFS 2020, and videos like this are helping a lot. I'm no idiot - I have a degree in electrical engineering, but there is a lot of terminology and acronyms in the airline industry to learn. No use paying for flight school when it is a dream that simply will never happen. Thank you!

@emiliojrtandoc7877 Год назад

Instruments landing system enables the pilot of an aircraft to make a safe approach to, and landing on a rwy even under adverse conditions of wx and visibility. This function is accomplished by the provision of azimuth and elevation guidance and distance info from the landing threshold sirs ok, thk you so much sirs ok

@timmellin2815 9 месяцев назад

I remember flying for the first time in 1962 on a 707. The seat flight magazine had an explanation about how planes land. I remember the words "lights beckoning in towards the runway." My sister married an amateur pilot. He built his own plane from a kit, and they flew everywhere in their "mosquito" and he also did formation flying. When he died, it must have been hard to sell their little plane. It' would have been nice for him to see your fine diagrams and videos here.

@DerickMasai 2 года назад

My goodness, I am an aspiring pilot and this is the greatest video I have ever seen on the topic. I'm yet to start training but, predictably, I watch a lot of content on aviation and hear the terms like Localizer frequently. To not only teach everything regarding ILS (I only roughly understood glideslope based on the way it sounds) but introduce each aspect incrementally from the lights to the glideslope to the localizer slowly and in search a concise manner is a testament to the skill you have as an educator. Amazing lesson. 10/10. Liked, subscribed, shared. 👏👏👏

I was looking out the window above the wing and I saw the ground 4 seconds before we touched down. It was very scary. That was a 100% ILS landing! Amazing technology
