April 23, 201412 yr Hi all, When I approach for landing today, a warning of "Guide Slope! Guide Slope!" was keep coming out. Can anyone tell me what's that mean please? Thanks x 10000 OHK142
April 23, 201412 yr It means you're below the glide slope to the point the GPWS is warning you. I'm sure others can go more in depth. -Raven HarrisIntel i7 980X @ 4.43GHz | ASUS Rampage III | Corsair 6GB DDR3 2000MHz | 3 EVGA GTX280 | Corsair 1200 Watt | Intel 510 SSD (RAID 0)PMDG - 747-400/8iF | MD11/F | BAe J41 | 737NG 6/7/8/9 Hope ER/BBJ|777LR/FFlight1- Cessna Mustang
April 23, 201412 yr I guess you need to start from the basics first...if you are moving ahead into jets... btw the answer to your question is: You are either above or below the gliding path towards the runway..you need to maintain the glide path with the correct vertical speed.. B)
April 23, 201412 yr Commercial Member You only hear the warning if you are one dot or more 'below' the glide slope. @OHK, keep the magenta diamond centered. Rob Prest

April 24, 201412 yr Author Thanks a lot for your information.. I will try again tonight. Have a good fly!

Yep you can disable the warning, and once the warning is disabled, the next sign of trouble will be when you crash short of the runway..

May 4, 201412 yr Just try to imagine that glideslope is a slide directing you to the runway, if you are not "seating" on the slide, like being below the slide, the glideslope warning will come to exsistance, what you should do is to raise the nose, reduce the rate of descent to follow the glideslope which you can see in PFD Intel Core i7-6700K @4.6GHz // ASUS ROG Maximus VIII HERO // G.SKILL Ripjaws V 3000MHz CL15 8GB // INNO3D iCHILL GTX770 4GB OC // Corsair h110iGT
