Which are you going to believe: -- the manual, or -- the trees coming through the windshield? The _center_ of the glideslope is only 3 degrees above horizontal (sometimes less) and there are trees and things that stick up above the horizontal plane. If each dot is 1.5 degrees, I'd hate to be two dots low on the approach. |
