Flightdirector problem (Localizer tracking)

Featured Replies

Hello,I tried several approaches with PIC flying by hand, flightdirector set to APP mode (cross-needle display type). Glideslope tracking is o.k, but the vertical flightdirector needle doesn't seem to command the tracking of the localizer. It only seems to command for horizontal wing level. Without looking at heading and the position of the ILS needle display I don't hit the runway.Is that a PIC problem, or a problem of FS2002 at all ? Or is it my mistake ?Matthias Huck,Oelde, Germany

Hello,could it be that only I have this problem ? Yesterday i tried again, and had the same problem ... It is very obvious when flying an approach by hand.Matthias Huck

I think I found the solution to my problem. It was discussed 2 years ago. The FMC database does not have the same CRS-settings for ILS than the FS2002 database. So autotuning NAV1 on ILS gives a wrong CRS-value -> wrong needle indication.Matthias
