The Instrument Landing System (ILS) is a precision approach and provides both lateral and vertical guidance to a runway. For most general aviation operations, it allows a pilot to descend to as low as 200′ AGL and assist a pilot in locating the runway in as low as 3/8 mile visibility.

When taxiing towards the starting point of a runway, you may see a red sign on the left with the letters ILS. There will also be a corresponding yellow marking on the taxiway, which looks like a ladder.
