Hello,A true newbie pilot question!!!!! I can fly almost all of my a/c OK. Now it's time to learn a lot about planning!. There appear to be a number of airport runways that show up on my FSNAV map as having ILS. When I get there, I find that there is an ILS signal but NO GS signal. Is this correct or am I missing something. I have planned a number of training flights into airports (say KSEA->KSFO) and tried to guess ahead (training only) at a runway. I choose 10L and when I get there I find an ILS freq that has no apparent GS. My autoland on the 737NG (PMDG) does not acquire and I have to abort the landing. I tried the same landing with a default A/C and when I switched on the APPR (on my GOFLIFGT AP) the plan did a 180 up the ILS course. It turned away from the runway.Thanks in advance,Ron [email protected] near KCHS

I have found that M$ doesn't like to tell you weather or not an ILS is really just a localizer at and airport. In FS if you go to map view and click on an airport it will only say ILS, so you're planning on that. This has been the case for all the flightsim versions. As for your autoland, do you have the inbound course dialed into the HSI.
