A typical instrument landing system glide path angle is

  • A.10 degrees
  • B.3 degrees
  • C.5 degrees
  • D.1.5 degrees

Answer: B

Three degrees gives a descent rate that is comfortable at approach speeds and clears typical obstacles. Steeper angles are published at a few airports with terrain or noise constraints and require specific aircraft approval.
