Got the sim last night. Installed OK. Flight to LHR for A/L. All OK but when A/L button pressed it didn't engage. This is the same as the original on Steam! Is the A/L supposed to work, if not why write it up in the manual >:(

It works for me.

Both NAV's set to the ILS frequency
The heading for both NAV courses is set to the ILS heading
Press the A/L button on the Autopilot
Make sure both Autopilot switches are set to CMD
Lower the flaps to 33^o or 42^o

Did all that many times on real tristar. Still no A/L light or annunciator. Any ideas or should I bug report it?

Got it to work. Not the way we did it on the real aircraft though. APR mode used until GS then press A/L . The sim should swap APR mode to A/L. At least I know it works and very well. PFM as we used to say ;)

Please download and install this hotfix 1002 and let us know if A/L works as it should.

That fixes it. With 100m vis selected just like the real thing. PFM! Thanks
