Glideslope Pointer and Scale
Pointer represents glideslope
beam and moves up or down
the glideslope deviation scale
to indicate vertical displacement

will rise vertically to indicate radio altitude from 200 feet to touchdown,
each mark on the rising runway represents 100 feet.
Command Bars
The vertical bar indicates the roll correction which the aircraft must
make to maintain a selected heading or course, and the horizontal
bar indicates the pitch correction the aircraft must make to maintain
