ILS Problems

Are you using autopilot?
1) First problem could be that you are engaging the autopilot too early. Only engage the autopilot when you are roughly 10nm from the runway or have been cleared to land.

2) You could also be on the glideslope too fast. Make sure you are not faster than 190KIAS maximum.

3) Make sure you have the GPS/NAV switch on NAV.

Try those and let us know how you get on 😉

Yes everything is set correctly

Just not picking up the ILS at all.

NAv is on, Approach is enabled but still not putting me onto the glidescope seems to think the runway is shorter than it is.

Would reinstalling Fs2004 fix the problems? and would i loose any of my setting if i reinstalled.

I've never heard of complete ILS failure so I wouldn't know, I'd wait for someone else's opinion just in case 😉

let's see...i'll run through some problems that i've had

1. are you too close to pick up the ILS? You need to get under it, most aircraft can only intercept the ILS from below.

2. Sounds dumb, but are you on the wrong runway? Like if you have RWY 32 and 32R, but 32 dont have ils, are you on 32 instead?

3. Try different aircraft a few times.

if it is falling short, is it because the alitmeter is set to the wrong pressure setting?
