  • It isn't safe to land by sight.

  • So they engage autopilot to guide them in instrument landing system, or I.

  • L s uses ground based radio beacons to guide the plane to the runway.

  • Both the captain and his copilot have no reason to worry.

  • They have used the I'll s landing system many times in the past.

  • Gear down, You're down.

  • It was the first officer who began to recognize by looking at all the other data through the instruments that something was wrong.

  • Therefore, deflection It's captured 10 3 is the localizer.

  • GPS is off the right way.

  • Done something wrong.

  • Hair fears the autopilot hasn't locked onto the eyeless standard procedure would be okay.

  • Get the airplane up above the ground and figure out where why things were wrong.

  • We'll continue the approach.

  • Captain Releford puts his faith in the auto pilot and initiates the landing procedure, ignoring further warnings from his copilot.

  • We have full deflection on GPS.

  • We should go left.

  • No, aren't too far to the right.

  • Has objections continue to fall on deaf ears.

  • Just put your head down and continue to do something like that.

  • Odds are you're gonna end up with a catastrophic ending.

  • Just that was a short line With the craft sinking lower hair gets increasingly anxious.

  • Alarm means you don't see the runway.

  • You must immediately initiate a go round around.
