Answer 9

Expect to find a PAPI glideslope indicator

Question 10

What type of visual glideslope indicator would you expect to see at a Navy base?

Answer 10

Fresnel Lens Optical Landing System (OLS). You are on glidepath when the ball is in the center between the green datum lights.

Question 11

What are the primary communication methods at an uncontrolled airfield?
