.75nm

PALS referred to as --- , provides both automatic and manual control of aircraft

Easy rider

The ICLS referred to as the --- is an ILS type system using independent landing monitor (ILM) and TACAN/DME

Bullseye

The first use of the ICLS is made possible because of the greater range at which error signals can be received in excess of --- nm compared to approximately --- for PALS

20nm/10nm

When the ICLS is used as an independent monitor during PALS mode one approaches the ICLS and PALS displays of error signals shall agree to within --- percent of full scale deflection --- to --- needle widths, until reaching mode I approach weather minimums

10%/2-3 needle widths

If the displays exceed ---- % the mode I approach shall be downgraded to a mode II approach
