Do pilots understand what the LSA is?
The LSA or Localiser Sensetive Area, Do you guys in the tube know what we mean when during foggy weather (ie wednesday) we say vacate right and taxi clear of the LSA. Some seemed to call just clear of the runway.
However the LSA will extend beyond the edges of the runway and the colour coded turn off lights only tell you when the nose is clear and not the economy section.
BTW the LSA at LHR extends 137m either side of the runway centreline, so you have to really be on the outer taxiway to be well clear. Does this info appear in any of your books?
Landing clearance ideally is given by 2dme in LVPs, but can be given by 1nm, if not the a/c is sent around. (Sorry to those who went around)
