Glideslope

Recommended Posts

Suddenly having massive problem with aircraft (many) and airports (any) failing to find glidescope on ILS approach.

I have followed all the usual rules, interception from below, ils Appr on, confirmed nav on. The ILS picks up the center line approach

perfectly and completely ignores the glideslope diamond as it slides by. Have REX and just installed ORBX FT Global.

Any suggestions appreciated.

Did the Glideslope work OK before the latest install of ORBX FT Global?

This sounds like a strange one! Posting here so I can follow it.

Philabos there's a lot of helpful people here, post as much info as you can about the problem. I've got a feeling it's something minor you're overlooking. Like NAV/GPS mode or something?

 

Better still, the next time it happens take a screenshot of your instruments and post it here.

Hey Ebs,

 

I used to do the same thing, before I found the Follow This Topic Button located at the Top Right of the screen.

 

Just trying to be helpful.  All the best.

Well, busy firing up my paintnet for screens, unfortunately two perfect captures at EGKK and EGHI, the second of which failed multiple times earlier.

It is possible I did engage the app before getting the GS indicator. Did not know that would cause a failure to engage the glidescope while still apparently

capturing the ILS. I have put so much into and out of FSX on the same install forever, so may be time to buy the steam version and start with a clean plate.

 

Thanks everyone for your suggestions.

Cheers for that Dave, I never even noticed!  :wacko:

 

Philabos, sounds like it's sorted? I know certain planes don't let you intercept the GS until you've intercepted the Localizer. Sounds like that was the case?
