What is the maximum coverage angle for the localizer within 0-10 nautical miles?

The maximum coverage angle for the localizer within 0-10 nautical miles is indeed 35 degrees. This value is critical for pilots to understand because it defines the lateral limits within which a localizer signal is effective. The localizer provides precise lateral guidance to the runway centerline during an instrument approach, and the 35-degree angle ensures that the aircraft can correctly align itself with the runway while receiving reliable directional information.

Understanding this coverage angle is essential for pilots during instrument training and practice, as it helps determine how far off the centerline they can be while still receiving valid signals from the localizer. This knowledge contributes to improving situational awareness and ensuring safer navigation during approaches.
