Heya guys! This is a quick video on a simple ILS landing with an Autopilot flight. This video is only to show how the autopilot works, not showing you every stage such as flaps ect. It was made at a request of someone i play with and although i messed up in a few places but oh well. If you have any questions make sure you leave it in the comments!

Sloppy taxiing on the right side of the yellow line. Bad habit because your main gear may leave the tarmac in tight turns and sink in the mud.

Wow, this was really, really good. I play a lot of FSX on the Vatsim network but I don't use ILS and simply just use ATC. So I was telling myself I should learn how to use the ILS, and I watched over 5 videos, and none of them were that good tutorials, this one was a really, precise tutorial really explaining what each system does. Thanks!

I've seen quite a few text and videos on ILS landing, but none of them were even close to this one. Yours is clear' detailed and accurate. Especially the point were you tell us to activate the APP button, when the pink diamond is aligned with the altitude center line. Thank you very much, sure I'll subscribe. Yigal

You know you don't have to keep the NAV1 speaker on. All the button does is turn the speaker on and off - it does not activate the signal. Provided you are moving towards the NAVAID, you only need to hear the Morse code once or twice to insure 1) you are at a point where the signal can be received from the desired station, 2) the station is the one you want. You can then press the button again to turn off the speaker. Thanks for the video, it helped familiarize me with the autopilot on this airplane.

@craigp2008a 8 жыл бұрын

I always set up the course, ils frequency and com before I take off. Also I'm not sure what the advantage is to waiting to engage the gps in the autopilot until you manually steer it toward your gps heading. I've never had a problem engaging the gps as soon as I take off, but I guess it's just personal preference for that.

When I tried it my vertical dimond was on the bottom before I switched to approach. Am I to high?

@maxjohn6012 8 жыл бұрын

Yes. The glide slope comes up at an angle from the ground. You need to fly level such that you intercept the glide slope. As you approach it, the glide slope is actually above you, but because you're approaching the runway, as you approach, the distance that the glide slope is above you decreases until you intercept it, at which point (by definition) you are at the same altitiude. That's when you switch to approach hold, which should start you descending on the glide slope. If you don't switch on the approach hold you'll see the diamond go down below your altitude.

@MichaelClark-uw7ex 5 жыл бұрын

Yes the approach hold only works if you intercept the glide slope from below.

@MichaelClark-uw7ex 5 жыл бұрын

The biggest complaint I've heard about ILS approaches in FSX is that the plane sometimes starts "hunting"-swinging wildly left and right if you are not centered on the runway during the approach.
