mga010 Posted July 30, 2017 Report Share Posted July 30, 2017 I have some questions. Hope you do not mind. (1) What is the preferred way to start descent before T/D (similar to managed descent in the Airbus, or DES NOW in the 800), following all altitude restrictions and economic descent? (2) Does the RTE DATA page (in LEGS) not work in this simulation? (3) I find that the FD on ILS approaches is more inaccurate than in other planes. it easily lets me deviate 1/2 a tick to the right or left of the localizer without asking for correction. Is that normal? Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Litjan Posted July 30, 2017 Report Share Posted July 30, 2017 Hi Paul, (1) fly with V/S set to -1000 until you intercept your desired flight path, then use FL CHG descent. You need to do the calculations to meet your restrictions yourself (until we fix VNAV patch computations), but the green arc will help you (it shows where you reach the dialed-in altitude given your current V/S and GS). (2) not yet (3) no - I find it working pretty smoothly, and when following it precisely I stay on LOC and GS very accurately. Not sure what is going on on your side, there.
