Accurate ILS info ?

Featured Replies

Where do you get accurate ILS localiser information ? The only information I can find is on the local map and that is just the frequency paired to the rounded up/down runway heading. Is there somewhere to get the accurate in game, as opposed to real life, localiser heading to dial in ?

 

Thanks TIM

For most major US airports, Flightaware has approach charts. For any where else, I just google "[airport name] ILS frequencies"

Thanks for the info. The only problem I have is those are probably real life localiser headings not necessarily in game and given the real life headings change over time may not be the same. I am not so interested in real life accuracy as in game accuracy

But when you place your mouse over a LOC or GS you get all of the required info? Plus, if you then enter EDIT mode you'll be able to see "bias" values for a VOR, declination, etc...

Bingo.

Thanks Jcomm.

That's exactly what I was looking for. Typical x-plane ..the info is all there and more just not quite so non-engineer friendly as some other sims

To be honest I am not sure why I am being so fussy it's not as if my instrument ILS skills are so good that 2.4 degrees(210-207.6) is going to make a difference :lol:
