 The ILS GS and the PAPI glidepath are not the same thing. PAPI's are also designed with an eye to wheel height for a particular aircraft that doesn't fit those with a much higher or lower eye to wheel height (such as the 747 that you are flying in the screens).  Try the same approach in a C172 or B737/A320 and see what it looks like in comparison.

Thank you for your reply. I posted because other airport's PAPIs are almost 2red2white when I on GS. But I'll try the check with Snall aircraft.
