What Does OM Stand For?
OM stands for Outer Marker ILS
OM, or Outer Marker ILS, refers to a specific component of the Instrument Landing System used in aviation. It is a radio beacon located along the approach path to an airport, providing pilots with critical locational information. The Outer Marker serves as an indicator of the aircraft's position relative to the final approach fix, alerting pilots to their proximity to the runway and facilitating a safe and precise landing sequence.
