fgfsrc configuration and tried activating A/P both through the menu and with the LOC-APP A/P buttons on the dash. maybe a bit sluggish but roll rate is limited to 15 degrees and, from the amount of wing flex, it's heavy. I tried a few approaches to an ILS landing it seems OK. On the 787-8, no matter if I am lined up with runway or using NAV1 slave option, setting NAV1 CDI causes left and right oscillation. The NAV1 slave option should make the localizer follow route manager, right? It has done that on other planes (A320 Family, 777-200, CRJ-900). I am lined up in the blue pathway on the map and at correct altitude according to IAP charts. I'm not asking it to make large corrections. This is likely to destabilize them if used for large corrections.Īnd you always have the option of turning off the autopilot or flight director, and using the ILS to tell you where the runway is. For this purpose, ILS gains are generally twice VOR nav gains. All but Cat-III ILS has a minimum altitude for transition to visual flight, below which a go-around is mandatory if the runway is not in sight. It's for getting your butt through clouds, where you can't see the runway. People seem to think of ILS as an autoland. You should already be close to heading and altitude and nearly lined up when you turn it on. MAKG wrote in Sun 3:23 pm:It's an error to ask the ILS to make large corrections for you.
