  1. Michael, yes I do. I think I am in a little over my head right now but I am certainly learning. Thanks!Bobby Green
  2. Thanks Michael, I am going to do some research on those programs. You guys have given me a lot to work with and I appreciate you!
  3. Thanks Scott,This is the first time I have used this or any forum , my name is Bobby F. Green. I just updated NavData this week. I will check to see if there is a mismatch between the Navigraph udates and FSX.
  4. Michal,Thanks, I obviously have a lot to learn about approach plates and vectoring. I really appreciate your time and your support.
  5. Hi Michael, Thanks for replying,For instance on a flight from Chicago (KORD) to Louisville (KSDF) I selected :SID ORDS runway 32LSTAR RDSTN2 runway 35RAt about 25 miles from the airport the localizer indicator appears so I press the LOC button.At bout 12 miles from the airport the glide slope indicator appears so I press the APP button. At this point I am about 2600 feet and 165 kts with flaps 20.THANKS!!
  6. Hi all,I am relatively new to ILS landing. I have spent a great deal of time on FSX and most of the prior versions, this is my passion. I have also spent a lot of time reading the threads in these forums and I have gained an enormous amount of knowledge from them and I appreciate you all sharing your knowledge and experiences. My Problem: Any airport that I fly to where the approach route is perfectly lined up with the runway I capture the localizer at about 15 miles out, 2600 feet and 165kts in the 747-400. I capture the glide slope at about 10 miles out and the ILS landing is perfect. However, if there is any angle at all in the approach route no matter how small neither the localizer or glide slope will be captured. The glide slope comes alive and just goes to the bottom of the display screen. The localizer indicator appears but does not become active until I am directly over the runway threshold (at an angle) so the approach is obviously missed.I have viewed the PMDG and several other tutorials on ILS landings on countless occasions and I believe I am doing everything that they instruct you to do and I get the same results until it comes to an approach with an angle. I would certainly appreciate any advice any one can provide. Thank you in advance!!
