Explain why an aircraft can fly inbound on an outbound-numbered radial.
EASA 062 · ATPL(A) syllabus topicsOpen chapter063 lessons
HSI geometry and VOR interception
Build an intercept from position, required course and wind rather than chasing a needle.
EASA 062 · ATPL(A) syllabus topicsOpen chapter073 lessons
DME timing, slant range and derived speed
Explain why overhead DME does not read zero and why its speed can differ from groundspeed.
EASA 062 · ATPL(A) syllabus topicsOpen chapter083 lessons

ILS localizer and lateral sensitivity
Connect angular guidance to shrinking lateral tolerance on final approach.
EASA 062 · ATPL(A) syllabus topicsOpen chapter103 lessons
ILS glidepath, false lobes and signal protection
Relate vertical angle to height and recognise why geometry must agree with the procedure.
EASA 062 · ATPL(A) syllabus topicsOpen chapter113 lessons
MLS and time-referenced scanning
Understand how scanning-beam timing supplies angle and how MLS differs from ILS.

SSR, Mode S and ADS-B dependencies
Distinguish measured radar position, coded replies and broadcast position reports.
EASA 062 · ATPL(A) syllabus topicsOpen chapter143 lessons
