AMC AWO.A.ALS.101(a) Applicability and terminology

ED Decision 2022/007/R

MLS and GLS are assumed to have operational characteristics equivalent to those of a conventional ILS. The terms ' localiser ' and ' glide path ' have been retained for use with ILS, MLS or GLS, and are intended to indicate where lateral and vertical deviation is provided to the aircraft navigation systems.

The term 'automatic landing system' (ALS) refers to the airborne equipment, which provides automatic control of the aeroplane during the approach and landing. It includes all the sensors, computers, actuators and power supplies necessary to control the aeroplane to touchdown. It also includes the means to control the aeroplane along the runway during the landing roll-out. In addition, it includes the indications and control necessary for its management and supervision by the pilot.
