Advanced Planetary Approach Suite: Difference between revisions

As with its predecessor, the functions of the Advanced Planetary Approach Suite are fully automatic. All that a pilot has to do in order to use it is to ensure it is installed on their ship. Upon approaching a planetary body and entering [[Orbital Cruise]], the Advanced Planetary Approach Suite will activate additional [[HUD]] elements to help orient the pilot. If the pilot attempts to [[Planetary Landings|land]] on a suitable body, the module also activate and maintain [[Glide]] mode once the ship descends to an altitude of 25 kilometers.

The key benefit of the Advanced Planetary Approach Suite is that in addition to permitting landing on planets without atmospheres, it also permits [[Atmospheric Landing|landing on planets with tenuous atmospheres]] up to a limit of 0.1 atm.
