I dont autotune the frequencies.

On the DEP/ARR page, you have the option, which I highly suggest you use to install an approach. For example Flying to LAX from the east you would use CIVET5 (its now RIVVR1, but whatever), which will guide you from either TNP (Twenty Nine Palms) or HEC (Hector) to the vor CIVET. Normally the ATC will give you instructions like Descend and maintain 3000 until on glide slope expect vectors RWY25R. You will select ILS25R in the DEP/ARR page after being given these instructions. Close the route, basically if you see a line that says ROUTE DISCONTINUITY with a bunch of boxes, click on the LSK (line select key) for the vor below the discontinuity and click the LSK for the empty line. this will close the route. Check your APP REF page again. You can also get the ILS and HDG from the map in flight simulator, click on the airport you are arriving at and go from there, the only weakness is that they dont give GSIA (glide slope intercept Altitude).

I check flightaware.com and look a common routes between airports, and simroutes.com. I use Vroute and it will save a flight plan. I do not use FSX flight planner as I find it sub par. I do not use the ATC either. FS has a bad habit of being 5 minutes behind. It has caused some funky issues like a 747 trying to land on top of me! The CS 757 has a far better radar and TCAS than apparently the ATC does!

I belive that flight simulator is fairly accurate vs. the published FAA airport information regarding TDZE.

Hello.
i haved the same proplem when i did a flight to KAI TAK
not in the 757 in anthoer aircraft,
vhhx is not in data base because we all know that KAI TAK was closed on 1990 i think,its easy actually,dont put vhhx because it dosent exist
put vhhh and when you come near KAI TAK do a visual landing.
and yeah the landing and the weather in hong kong really it dont help KAI TAK at all

Dear Aussie,



Thanks mate, will give it a whirl!
