Magnificent Experience. Two negative issues.

I have to say that this 777 is a work of art. She handles beautifully. After reading a great deal for two days, I was able to get her lit up and up for a couple of circuits around FACT. Two things were observed during my first couple of tries landing on runway 18. One, when disconnecting the A/P, the darn warning does not shut up. It does not matter how many times I press the A/P button. The only way to get it to shut up is by turning the A/P back on. Second issue - after capturing the ILS for runway 18, the aircraft followed the glideslope well but for some reason it tracked left of the runway rather than centered. I will continue testing at other airports and runways to determine if this is due to a bad afcad or if its related to the aircraft itself.

Use the soft disconnect for the AP located on the yoke press it once to disconnect wait for a second and press it again to silence it.As for the other problem you have I would try it at another airport before I call it a problem.

 

Best of luck.

The AP warning issue may be due to the way you disconnected the AP.  It should be using the AP disconnect button, not the AP select button.  It's not clear from your post which you were using.  However there is also an aircraft option which prevents the warning being cancelled in this way, maybe you have that selected?

 

As for the ILS tracking to one side, this can be caused by a mismatch between the AIRAC ILS course and FSX ILS course.  Increasingly common as FSX radio aids are long out of date compared to reality. You need to ensure the ILS course matches the inbound course shown on the FSX map (or whatever is in the AFCAD for the area).
