papi / apapi - huh????
Sorry - dumb question from early stage learner. I'm fortunate in that I'm learning at an incredibly quiet but large airport (Cork, Ireland) which has all the bells and whistles. Now, I was reading the current 'Todays Pilot' article about airport lighting which showed PAPI - which I'm familiar with. It also mentioned APAPI, stated that it uses two rather than four lights and is more common at smaller GA fields. Fair enough, but how does it differ from PAPI - is it no lights vis on final = too high; 1 = just right & 2 = too low, or am I totally off the mark. ...over to you guys!
