Glide Slope Interception from Above

Pilots will learn how to manage descent rates, speed, and aircraft configuration to regain a stable approach path after being positioned above the glide slope. The course emphasizes the importance of precise vertical navigation, understanding instrument indications, and effective use of automation or manual control to recover the correct glide path. Ideal for pilots seeking to improve their skills in handling non-ideal approach situations and ensuring a smooth and safe landing.
