ILS Outer Marker |
Geography |
The marker is placed in recreatiegebied Spaarnwoude,
close to one of the club houses and parking lots of the Amsterdamse
Golfclub. You can access it directly by car via the Bauduinlaan. |
Procedures |
This beacon is used to mark a specific place on the ILS
approach to runway 18C, so that the pilot can cross-check the altitude
and can start a stop watch to time the distance to the decision point
for a missed approach. |
Remarks |
Per October 27, 2005, this outer marker has been decommissioned.
Amsterdam Schiphol now does not have marker beacons any more, it's all
ILS/DME. |
