False glide slope capture occurs when an aircraft mistakenly follows a non-standard or incorrect glide slope, often due to interference or misleading signals from localizers or other navigational aids. This can lead to the aircraft descending at an incorrect angle, potentially resulting in a dangerous approach. Pilots are trained to recognize and respond to this situation to maintain safe flight operations. Regular checks and proper equipment maintenance help mitigate the risk of such occurrences.

What is 35 is to 1 glide slope?

That is a very small glide slope. The glide slope is the amount an aircraft (or bird or whatever) sinks as it glides parallel to the ground. 35:1 means it will glide 35 meters (measured along the ground) and descend 1 meter (vertically) in still air (no updraft).


What is the degree of glide slope for a helicopter?

The degree of glide slope for a helicopter typically ranges from 3 to 10 degrees, depending on various factors such as the helicopter's type, weight, and environmental conditions. A steeper glide slope may be used for landing in confined areas or during specific approaches, while a shallower slope is often preferred for more stable and controlled descents. Pilots adjust the glide slope based on operational needs and safety considerations.
