INSTRUMENT APPROACH PROCEDURES PROFILE VIEW
PROFILE VIEW
Two different methods are used for vert ical guidance:
a. “GS” indicates an electronic glide slope or barometric vert ical guidance is present. In the case of an Instrument Landing System (ILS) and Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) LPV approach procedures, an electronic signal provides vert ical guidance. Barometric vert ical guidance is provided for RNP and LNAV/VNAV instrument approach procedures. All ILS, LPV RNP, and LNAV/VNAV will be in this format located in the lower left or right corner.
b. Other charts without electronic or barometric vert ical guidance will be in this format , indicating a non-precision vert ical descent angle to asist in preventing controlled flight into terrain. On Civil (FAA) procedures, this information is placed above or below the procedure track following the fix it is based on.
