Airport; Human Factors
Was conducting instrument training at ELP. We were cleared for GPS 26R approach. When approaching the runway I became confused due Runway 26R marked as a visual runway. There are no bars on the Runway for 26R and momentarily started to turn to Runway 26L. We were able to determine the right runway; however the runway should be marked properly to avoid confusion. The airport should mark Runway 26R with the proper runway markings.
C172 instructor pilot reports difficulty identifying Runway 26R at ELP during RNAV 26R approach. Runway markings are called into question.
