Unmonitored, as used in this order, means that the personnel responsible for monitoring the facility have lost aural and visual monitoring capabilities and cannot observe the status of the facility. It does not refer to the automatic monitoring feature.
What is GP on an ILS?
GP is glide path. The KSBM ILS RWY 21 is unavailable, you’ll have to get by with the LOC/DME RWY 21.
What do you need for an ILS approach?
To fly an ILS, you first align your aircraft with the runway, using the localizer as guidance. This is typically done by radar vectors from ATC, or with a procedure turn. You then fly toward the runway and intercept the glideslope from underneath, so you don’t intercept a false glideslope.
Can you use an unmonitored NAVAID?
When issuing a NOTAM describing a facility as unmonitored, do not use the category of monitor, only the phrase “NOT MNT.” Do not issue a NOTAM for a standalone DME that is not monitored. If the NAVAID is reported as being unserviceable, the unmonitored NOTAM must be canceled.

What is the typical power radiated by an ILS localizer?
The transmitters have a power of less than 25 watts, a range of at least 15 miles, and operate between 190 and 535 kHz. At some locations, higher-powered radio beacons, up to 400 watts, are used as OM compass locators. OM: First 2 letters of loc id group.
What does ILS stand for in aviation?
An instrument landing system (ILS) is a ground-based instrument approach system that provides precision guidance to an aircraft approaching and landing on a runway. Learn more… If cleared for an ILS approach at the Initial Approach Fix, where should I intercept the glideslope?
What does the ICAO term “out of service” mean?
The term OUT OF SERVICE is replaced with the ICAO contraction U/S, meaning unserviceable.
What is the difference between ILS and ILS with an Om?
ILS systems may have an associated OM. A Middle Marker (MM) is no longer required. Locations with a Category II ILS also have an Inner Marker (IM) An OM or suitable substitute identifies the FAF for non-precision approach (NPA) operations (for example, localizer only); and
Distinguish components of an ILS from nonprecision approach NAVAIDs by preceding the component with the runway number followed by “ILS” (including single ILS airports). EXAMPLES-
