Title: Re: VNAV not putting me on ILS intercept
Post by Markoz on Jul 27th, 2013 at 4:36am
If I have a situation like that in a STAR/Approach, I use Heading Select and fly at around 180 degrees to the ILS runway heading, then when the Glide Slope rises above the 757, I fly for about 60-90 seconds, before turning back to a 45 degree intercept of the ILS runway heading. There are other things that need to be considered when doing this (like hills/mountains), otherwise I would crash, so I would change it a bit to take them into account.

Can you follow what I mean? If not, give me the details of the Route, STAR, Approach and Runway, and I'll look into what I would do to avoid this from happening.

I would love to hear how Lou deals with these situations, because he knows exactly how it is/was done in real life. ;D
