What Does GRTLS Stand For?
GRTLS stands for Glide Return To Landing Site
GRTLS, or Glide Return To Landing Site, is an aviation procedure designed to enhance safety and efficiency during an aircraft's descent and landing phase. This method allows for a controlled glide approach that enables pilots to return to the original takeoff location in the event of an emergency. By optimizing glide paths and utilizing aerodynamic principles, GRTLS aims to minimize risks associated with unexpected in-flight incidents, ensuring a safe landing under challenging circumstances.
