glideslope indicators on jets etc?

Where is the glideslop indicator located in the panel on jet aircraft? The VASI doesn't work too well in fog.

thx

Normally it should pop up on the right of the EADI/PFD

Wait, you mean they tell you the glide slope in a aircraft? ??? I didn't know that, maybe thats why the lights are always red for me ;D

White over white you'll be out of sight
White over red you'll be ok
Red over red you'll soon bang your head..

Once you set an ILS landing freq the VOR1 (usually on GA) or a display I forgot its name, gives you the glideslope...

How and when you should descend.

You must also make sure that the radio section in a planes aircraft cfg file is correct, so that nav1 has the glide slope 8)
