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 Angry

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 33o or 42o

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 Wink

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