For anyone else curious about what happened next, I made a youtube video and hopefully it will help others out in the future; certainly something you should check out.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t2gFt6WAXic

just had to interject a comment into this... When you say:"Rebuilding the config brings everything back to the default and that will normally fix the problem." Does that mean that we dont have to bring the sliders down after renaming the cfg file?

oh yeah well thats good especially considering that delhi has been upgrading its airport a lot! what type of airplane do you fly? And while we're on the subject, do you know if anyone is making a delhi airport add-on b/c of the new terminal and stuff? it would totally be worth it!thanks for your input,airindia16

So it isn't like cheating or the simpler way of performing an ILS approach? It's done like that in real life?

First off, I have to say thanks very much to everyone! And definately to mr. Duck (haha jk) because I just had my first successful ILS approach. I guess the basic thing is to know what you are doing becuase when I first posted this because of my flight to Boston I had no idea how to work ILS, but I just performed it using both GPS and Nav1 as you suggested.THIS THREAD IS SOLVED!and a sidenote; avsim is the best fsx forum I have ever encountered!Thanks more than anything again!airindia16

I'm flying this route right now using your directions and my only question is that its says:TransVectors (or)NewlySo which one am i supposed to choose?and I am supposed to load this right? or do I activate it?thanks

3 questions.1. Hate to be a pest but I think that the Garmin100 doesn't have a PROG button either... do you mean PROC, ie procedure to arrival? because I think that gives yoju the option to select your approach. If I'm missing PROG could you please give me a screenshot of it?2. Now for this, do I need to enter in the course, and Nav 1 stuff ( i doubt it but I thought I'd still check)3. And finally, can I simply enter this approach into the GPS at any time and toggle the cockpit to GPS and the airplane will fly right into the ILS path?!? Is that all that needs to be done?Thank you very much for your time! This is EXTREMLY helpful!! It actually answers the question I just asked :(, so I will definately try this and report the results!! my only q is when you say"hit VOR/LOC again." was I supposed to hit it previous to this occasion?Thanks more than infinately :)

Right, I know exactly what you are saying. I entered that into the Nav1 and then switched it to make it active... at first it seemed to appear on my PFD but then I do not know what happened.Thanks for replying. haha cool so how do I know when to turn left, say 2.5 miles north of the airport. Can I ask the airport like, "... is unfamiliar with the area... "

That's just what I did, I flew from KCLL to KIAH but I didnt know what to do once I reached the point where they tell you about the localizer. I had the correct Nav1 freqency and CRS heading for runway 26 right and I had the cockpit toggled to Nav and I clicked nav. I hate to be so ignorant but what am i missing?

so I just went to duluth and pulled the aircraft (using map) back to the ILS feather at the centerpoint where it says OM and was at 3200 feet, heading 271, with the ILS frequency set and everything. Then I turned on the autopilot and clicked APP with speed at 160 and full flaps and gear. The problem I encountered which has happened before is that my aircraft descends rapidly and then suddenly climbs and continues in this pattern for some strange reason... One I'm at the tip of the feather what exactly should I do?PS I have a picture of the cockpit at the feather in case that helps

what do you mean by "leave nav1 slaved to the gps" and you say to hit program on the GPS but there is not such button as program, what am i missing?thanks,airindia16

yeah i apologize i meant kiah, but i found out it is ils.BTW you have an astounding number of add-ons!! what would you do if you had to reinstall fsx?!?! and how much did it cost you?

I was just flying at KIAH runway 27 and followed your directions and everything made reasonable sense until you said:"6. At 23 miles DME, turn HDG to 290 and AT AS to 190. The LOC needle will stay active to about 25 Miles. When the DME reads about 20 miles the Glideslope (GS) needle will go active and peg to the top of the guage."when I turn to this heading, I'm so far away from the airport and heading even further! I can't pick up any glideslope because I'm not near the runway...After I took off, i turned to 170 and then once I was 23 miles away I turned again to 290, but I failed to understand what to do at this point; unless you were perhaps missing a step.I took a screenshot of my cockpit as i was at 290 heading in case that is of any help, with the Garmin open.Thanks,airindia16 okay I'll try that but shouldnt i turn to a downwind of 163?

okay i'm updating my drivers right now, and where is the fsx.cfg file?

Hi all,It appears that my problems with Flight Sim 10 are unending. My newest problem is that when flying, the computer randomly will switch to a blue screen with a long error message. After this, the computer will reboot very noisily (sounding like an aircraft taking off, no pun intended). Sometimes this occurs after the game finishes loading.I have heard that this may be due to something that has been added onto the computer, although I have nothing besides FsPassengers.My com,puter's specs are as follows:Operating System: Windows XP Professional (5.1, Build 2600) Service Pack 3 (2600.xpsp_sp3_gdr.100216-1514)Language: English (Regional Setting: English)System Manufacturer: IBMSystem Model: 6223ATUBIOS: PhoenixBIOS 4.0 Release 6.1.U Processor: Intel

Hey,hate to interupt but is there anyway to get this file from siamavsim anymore? It seems like other people have downloaded it in the past, so could someone send it to me?thanks!airindia16

wow! amazing! do you know if he'll be doing it as freeware? it looks like he's enjoying it so let's hope so... :)

Is this is one shown in the video below? thanks!airindia16

okay thank you!

I have seen numerous people say they got vtbs from siamavsim but I can not access that real site because it is supposedly gone. So where can the amazingly detailed freeware version of Suvarnabhumi Airport be downloaded from?It should be simple, but it is impossble to locate!please give me the link!Thank you infinately!airindia16

do you know if 9/27 runway at DFW is ILS?

haha love the humor! thanks a lot! I'll let you know how it goes! this is actually really helpful! :) can you tell me what airport has a runway 27 ILS? thanks! ?I let you know how it goes!

My specs are included in the attachment below which has all of the details given at time of purchaseIt's a picture because I wasnt able to attach a word document... :(

yes it's a fabulous software and basically you can control wether or not you want to use it, and not only does it do announcement like safety and after landing and airborne, but it keeps track of your flights!

I was flying from Newark Liberty International Airport to Boston Logan Airport and I was inbound on Runway 34 (I believe) approach. So I was coming from the south and because I flew with an IFR plan I got a long instruction from the tower about my approach(American TA356 you are 78 miles Southwest, turn left heading
