Glide slope guage not working

Featured Replies

Anyone flying the TU-144? My glide slope indicator on the pilot's panel doesn't work even though I have the Nav 1 radio set to the ILS frq. and the switch set to Nav and the AP will track it, but the glide slope indicators are 'frozen' and don't move even when I'm off line or doing a manual approach.Any ideas?Thanks

I'll have a quick flight and get back to you.

OK, the only settings I can think of that would prevent the ILS indicators from activating are the two small switches on the ILS frequency indicator on the bottom right of the main panel.These two switches are marked ILS and BKN and need to be in the UP position for the ILS needles to work.Let me know if this solves your problem.Cheers,

John
