ILS approaches after SU15??

Featured Replies

I've tried to fly 3 different GA aircraft into 2  airports that took ILS approaches before SU15, & non of the flights resulted in an ILS landing. 

Followed standard ILS procedures that used to work.

Anyone else having ILS issues?

Not here... I've done a couple of ILS approaches in the Duke since SU15 without any issues.

To clarify further:

  • What exactly isn't working the way you expect it to?
  • Are you hand-flying the ILS or do you have the autopilot engaged?
  • Can you share some screenshots of what's going wrong?
  • Just to make sure: When you say "none of the flights resulted in an ILS landing" -- you aren't letting the autopilot fly the ILS all the way to touch down? (There aren't really any GA aircraft that can do an autoland, unless you count owner-operated high-end business jets as GA.)

Just tried the turbine Duke into my standard Autopilot  ILS test approach: KBOS Rwy 33L, 110.70, 300 degrees - coming in to the LittleNavMap green feathers at 1,800', didn't pick up the Glideslope when I hit APPR & VLOC. 

Not attempting autoland, just conventional ILS, capture glide slope & follow it down, then take AP off & hand fly the landing.

I'll have a break for today & try again tomorrow.

Since SU15 have done about a dozen ILS approaches at different airports, no problems at all.

Inbound course for the ILS 33L should be 330, not 300. Maybe just a typo?

If it didn't follow the glideslope down, was it tracking the localizer and holding altitude, or did it also not pick up the localizer?

Was the glideslope being indicated correctly on the left HSI?

Now that you mention the autopilot didn't track the glideslope, I did have an issue on a recent flight with the (piston) Duke where I couldn't get the autopilot to follow the glideslope and ended up flying the approach in ATT mode, adjusting vertical speed. You do what you gotta do. I wasn't sure at the time if this was pilot error though. On the next flight in the Duke, the autopilot flew the approach without any issues. I'll report back if the issue reoccurs.

Just tried AP & ILS into KHVN using the Textron Bonanza G36 & it picked up the glideslope & came down smoothly & transitioned into  an AP off, hand landing, so probably just one of those days.
