Due to both system tolerances and differences in eye-to-wheel height of various types of A/C, deviations from the ideal glide path may occur close to the ground.

When an ILS glide path is available, VASIS/PAPI should be disregarded, since both paths may not be compatible.

Don't use them below 200 ft.
