Do228 ILS Landing

[rowcoach 4]

Good morning.

 

Quick question. I tried an ILS approach yesterday. Had no problem capturing the localizer, but couldn't tell where I was on the glide slope. Is there anything on the Do228 that shows if you are above or below the GS? I had to wait until I got out from the clouds before I could use the papi lights.

 

Thanks,

The GS indicator should show on the HSI when it comes alive, normally a yellow bar or marker, above the line means you are to low ( ie you will not make the runway)and below the line means you are to high.(ie you will over shoot)

when not in range it shows as GS off.
