Le V.A.S.I.S. à 3 BARRES comporte une barre aval constituée par 2 paires de 2 groupes d'appareils (...) Selon la position qu'il occupe par rapport à la trajectoire idéale de descente, le pilote voit tous les feux rouges (trop bas) ou blancs (trop haut) ou la barre aval rouge et les deux autres barres blanches (correct). (...) L'intérêt de ce système est de permettre le guidage aussi bien des avions de tourisme que des plus gros porteurs. On a constaté en effet, que les pilotes de Boeing 747, en raison de la distance séparant leur siège du plan défini par le train d'atterrissage, risquaient de se poser "court" avec le VASIS normal. 2, record 1, French, - VASIS%20%C3%A0%203%20BARRES
