Both NAV radios must be tuned to the same ILS freq. Then, both AP's (CMD-A and CMD-:( will engage.

Hi,regarding FMC...it depends on your flight plan...but let assume you've done all the flight planning and you're cleared for your descent into your destination airport.From the DEP/ARR page, select ARR then select the appropriate STAR/Transition (if available) and the appropriate Rwy with ILS, execute then go to LEGs page and clear any discontinuity.Goto INIT REF page, you should see the rwy selected /leght/app crs/ILS frequency. Select your landing flap (normally for autoland is 40), do not touch the wind correction (+5 is always used in autoland procedures 'cause the system will correct for any wind shift: note that you've limits for wind conditions in autoland !), remember that your Vref (to be put in the MCP window on finals) will be the V flaps (30 or 40) + 5 kts.And for the FMC part you're done !For the procedural part: assume you're nicely vectored on a suitable intercept heading to the rwy (no more than 45
