First OfficerWhile I’d consider it “cheating”, using the APP mode to auto-“crash” is very simple.
About 15nm out, tune NAV1 to the ILS freq, center yourself on the localizer and glide slope, engage the auto-pilot and hit the "APP" button there on. It should fly the approach for you and smack you down on or near the threshold with a bone jarring 700fpm rate of decent.
Chief Captainthx kurt i guess it is simple

Its not cheating. It is how it is done in the real world. All except the auto crash part. Many airlines have the aircraft auto coupled during an ILS approach and only disengage the autopilot for a manual landing once at minimums for the approach. Some aircraft even have an autoland feature.
