Strange autoland behaviour at LEPA

Featured Replies

On approach for RW 06L at LEPA, the NGX (configured for autoland with LAND 3 annunciation displayed) correctly tracking LOC + GS from 1700 ft down, suddenly at 300 ft stopped tracking the GS, stayed almost level with autothrotle increasing the power setting to remain in flight, and after crossing the RW threshold tried to land with a steep dive ending in disaster. I have retried the approach, same result. Don't have the problem with other autoland approaches like EHAM e.g. Anybody experienced something similar? NGX problem or LEPA scenery (Aerosoft Mallorca X) problem?

Most likely a scenery issue.
@Ryan I thought so too, so I have deinstalled Mallorca X completely and did the same approach with the default FSX LEPA scenery. Same issue still. I have no idea how to solve this issue, suggestions are welcome :)Have reinstalled Mallorca X and did the same approach again, but still the same issue. Have a FRAPS clip of the last part of the approach if you are interested (can't attach it, too big). At around 450 ft the problems start. First the speed starts to fluctuate, next the GS diamond suddenly drops sharply and the autoland falls apart.

Hello!This is a know issue at LEPA RWY06L/R. There is a very strong thermal. You can see it if you enable "thermal visualisation". Checking "Disable Turbulence and Thermal effects on aircraft" fixes it.RegardsStephan Balleis

hii dont have problems in LEPA X for your info
