Ok you set the ILS frequency in nav1, turn on autopilot, then check your gps for the green triangle thing and once the plane icon is in the triangle, you click the approach button and the plane should guide itself to the runway Wink
Please direct your complaints to the moon, they might care there.

Yeah what Cheeks forgot is the course has to punched in before u can hit the approach button.

U can find the ILS frequency and course in airport info when u double click on the airport on the map.

Make sure you are not above the altitude mentioned by ATC...also if ur flying a jet not more than 170 knots.

I suggest try this first in a lear or cessana.

Cheers

Yeah if you push NAV1/NAV2 switch at the bottom or top of the radio stack you'll hear the morse code coming from the ILS freq.

Then have the courtesy to wait until your time is worth those trying to help you out. When do you turn 17?

Morris, my good man. It's just that your spelling is atrocious, your grammar is hideous, and your punctuation is even worse! And you're from London! Good God, man! Wink I thought you drove a '91 Morris Minor.
