AO-0320 — Enhanced Arrival Procedures using Increased Glide Slope (IGS)

Enhanced arrival procedures using Increased Glide Slope (IGS) will allow inbound aircraft to reduce noise footprint (environmental benefit). IGS procedures are published approaches which feature a glide slope between the published one (commonly 3 degrees) and 4.49 degrees (limit above which steep approach concept applies), in order to provide a significant reduction in ground noise level (order of magnitude: -3 dBA in approach between 15 NM and 4 NM from runway threshold).

Rationale: While in today's environment most airports are providing ILS straight-in precision approaches at a standard glide slope of 3°, there is an operational need for reducing the noise below final approach (environmental benefit). This can be done by increasing the final glide slope (published as an alternate final procedure) which can be captured before FAP (at any time during approach phase).
