Intercepting GS from above.
Hi all. Please bare with my questions please, as I am not sure behing this concept.
I understand that if you were above your platform altitude to intercept the GS, but were away from the runway, youre aircraft will catch the signal and you will descend with the glide, is this true?
However if youre close to the runway, and ATC has not descended you to the altitude you should start descending with your glide (FAF) , but cleared your for thr approach, all you do is select VS of 1500, on the alt selector select an altitude above (Missed approach altitude) and wait till the GS signal is caugh and you start descending normally with the glide?
Thanks in advance!
