Ils approach

Recommended Posts

Having problens with ILS. Aircraft take off okay from my airfield (still needs a bit of fine tuning though), but landing is a no-go. AI/Autopilot make one pass over the runway in the right direction then appear to have problems lining up again.

I followed Marksman's instructions (As I understand them), but don't know what to adjust to sort this out. Has anyone had similar problems? If so, what was the solution?

Thanks in advanvce. smile_o.gif

Best solution is to have your runway going North to South or South to North.

East to West or West to East doesn't seem to work.

There are various angles in-between these that do work, but, I can't remember offhand what they are.

Thanks for the reply. Do you know where I could get that info from? turning the runway a full 90 degrees would involve totally re-making that part of the world.

Marksman replied in a thread over on OFPEC about this a number of weeks ago.

Unfortunately OFPEC is down at the moment.

Plank, now the forums at OFPEC are back up, I did a search for the thread you mentioned. after digesting all, It appears that height ASL is the key. Thanks for the tip smile_o.gif
