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.

Can airliner jet glide without fuel?

to a certain degree yes but it may probably go into stall. A glide is when an aircraft or object travels horizontally while dropping vertically. If it doesn't glide, then it drops vertically---i.e. a rock. If it can travel horizontally the same distance as the distance it falls, this is referred to as a 1:1 (one-to-one) glide slope. Many aircraft can not do this and will drop faster than they fly forward.
