All right, thanks everybody, today I've made my first autoland, without any crash, with my 767-300 !

Thanks a lot for your help, thanks to you the landing was wonderful !

I just noticed one problem : the touchdown was very violent, the plane doesn't seems to flare, all the gears touched the runway at the same time ! Think to the passengers ! Cheesy

So, what was wrong with the flare ?  Huh
Have I missed something ??

hi there! i have a problem, and I don´t know whats going on, I hope that someone can help me!

When I am already at the centerline, and with ILS frec. tuned, below glideslope, everything ok to start autoland!, I don´t see any change on the HSI of the glideslope, it does not tell me if i am too up, down, right, left, just like if the ils frec was not tuned.

need heeeelp!!!   Cry

A picture is worth a thousand words, so maybe you could post a screenshot?

You know you are below the glide slope somehow, right?  You should have the little arrow on the right at the top of the PFD.  If you keep going it doesn't eventually start to creep down?

Yep! I know that I am below the glideslope because of the chart, but let me take a picture. and i'll post it in 1 hr.

well i just made 2 flights,

Flight 1: MMAA-MMAA
from the same airport, SID then STAR, and the flight was pretty well with a flawless autoland!.

flight 2: MMMX-MMAA
the flight was pretty fine until STAR begun, the flight route ended, and just go crazy to any way!, and had  to do it manually, and just when I get to the centerline, the same way of flight 1, the ILS frec is not tuned even when i select it from the FMC, and i dont get any arrow, nor loc  or app function.  hope some one help me!

Is AUTOLAND/LAND working?

Hi,

I have a problem with autoland when I land with ILS catching the localizer and glide slope I see on different forum's that you can select the 3 CMJD button. However it is not working with my 767-300 or 767-200. Is there anything more I need to do to make Auotland/Land3 working?

You do not need to select the three CMD buttons. Only one needs to be ON. Once the ILS is captured and you are about 5 - 7 nm from the runway threshold, all three CMD buttons turn ON and the AUTOLAND 3 light comes on.

Put simply. One CMD button MUST be ON, the others come on AUTOMATICALLY. You don't need to do anything except press the LOC and APP buttons at the appropriate times to capture the ILS and G/S.

Hope this helps.

Mark thanks for your reply,

I thought this worked like this, however I was flying on KLAS & KLAX and on both approached the 3 cmd didn't start to burn. I already reinstalled the plain but still it is not working. Also setup my ILS frequency and runway heading. I normally use the first ILS do I maybe also set up the second ILS? Any suggestions for the solution or an airport where somebody is certain that the autpilot should work.
Please give me the airport and runway.

Thanks in advance.

I did a perfect ILS approach in the Fair Weather settinging in FSX and a perfect autoland Cool . I wanted to try it again, because it looked so great! Unfortunatly it did the rocking thing once I made the weather bad Sad . So I had to disengage the autopilot.

Probably not, but it's just my guess. You can though.

hi there! i was having a problem with ILS, that the plane wasn`t tuning ILS frec, so i checked and i notice that was because of AVIONICS was OFF, because of C&D setup, so try to assign a combination to turn on avionics and try again! hope that that works for you, now i can autoland everytime Tongue

Hi,

I finally autoland after loading the Boeing 767 cleared for take off (KSEA) file provided with the plain. So I did setup the FMC on the runaway of course not the best moment  Cheesy and fly to Vancouver and Guess what I landed with autoland 3.

So I have to learn how to start the 767 following the correct procedure and autoland should work. I had a lot of help from Paul Kawalec to find this out.

So I have to make the next step in simming by learning the proper startup procedures etc Wink. I'm working on a written howto, but maybe someone can point me at a good one already made.
I know that on youtube there are some wonderfull video's but a written procedure, with lots of screen shots  is easier to followto perform the startup procedure in FSX

The problem I have is the following, I'm not able to activate the middle CMD button only the left and right CMD button can be activated. So the problem lies somewhere here. Because when I load the predefined situation that the 737 is cleared on the runway, I'm able to select the middle CMD button and autoland works without any problem.
