When approaching runway on ILS approach once the aircraft gets below 5000 feet it dives for the ground.  There is no way to stop this decent.

Right-clicking the HDG handle will set and hold the current heading.
The middle mouse button will activate the selected mode and the autopilot will follow the selected HDG.
The NAV button activates the FMS lateral control.

Disable auto-throttle. Don't use AUTOLAND (Approach button). Do not use spoilers to slow down, use throttle and ROC to hold descent. When runway is in sight hand-fly.

I got this from multiple videos.  worked for me.

OK....the autopilot seems to be working properly now. Still need to test a little more, but it looks good. I don't understand why the plane completely ran out before...
