  • thx

  • please, how do i get my plane's nose to stop pitching up when i put it on a/p?

  • wtf i do everything you say but my plane wont do anything? Isnt this an auto-thing? What am i doing wrong??

    

  • what about if the airport dosent has an ILS?

  • @george131407 Then you land visiually.

  • I've followed your every direction, but my plane still won't land! I navigate using the GSP without a problem, but when I set everything up for approach hold my plane just won't do anything at all. I've double checked my frequencies - I hear the morse code! Two diamonds appear on the virtual horizon and everything. I have the switch set to NAV and everything. It just won't do anything at all! I turned off the altitude hold, just to see if anything happened. Nothing... Please halp? =)

  • soo... when I turn on the approach button, I could just turn of the heading?

  • @TheExcalibur356 when the glide slope indicator comes on turn on the app button

  • What's frustrating is that I can get the localizer, and then the G/S becomes active. however, once it goes below level flight, altitude doesn't disengage. Could accidentally activating APR hold before being on G/S affect this and cause altitude to not disengage?

  • dude your a big freeegin help. Thank you I landed a B737-800 for the first time.

  • I love the tutorial but I have a couple of questions. I viewed both 1 and 2 and with a little practice, it will come into play. First, how do I get the indicators that are next to the altimator on your video. It's where you were able to click on to get radio frequencies. and second, can i program the auto pilot at preflight, ie: speed, direction and altimator?

    You make your tutorials very easy to understand and I look forward to viewing more, you are the best.

  • @22Jeffreyb To answer your first question, there is a line of buttons consisting of toggling the GPS and the ACT window as you can see at 3:22. Watch where he clicks. It is the second button from the left. It looks kind of like an "A" with lines coming from the top. That's where you click for the radio stack. Second question, I'm certain you can set cruise altitude, but other than that I believe it is cockpit exclusive. I apologize if you wanted to hear this from DN (uploader) or if I am wrong.

  • Thankyou so much! Wow, you made it so clear for me. I understand it now.

  • I swear, out of everyone on youtube you were the most helpful and to the point on this topic. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!

  • my autopilot isn t working

  • Thank you very much for your help.I appreciate the facts,you've helped me a lot with this.Just in one day i was able to learn to land successfully.

  • I have been flying since long, but never understood ILS in detail. Thanks for your titorial. I am going to watch more on your FSX titorials. KS.

  • I see your flaps were still all the way up...so when do you start putting your flaps down???

  • very good. thank you so much. I can now land. a good tutorial. Well done.

  • This is the only tutorial that works! Ty man!!!!

    Very easy to understand

  • When should you turn on ILS to land? because i dont know wether im too erly or late?

  • Thanks! It finally works!! :D

  • now why does my glide slope diamond just keeps on going down and then I'm above gs. wtf?? idk why, my altitude hold is off, it turns it off automatically, am i going to slow or what? If i go to fast I'm screwed, if i go to slow I'm screwed, what speed should I do when far from runway and close up?????

  • this shitt is complicate d im quiting to be a pilot

  • i have an idea if u dont get it. try opening your flight sim and setting up the samescenario now go to his ils land tut. and start playing it then open your flight sim window and do the same thing then pause. watch. copy and repeat until u complete it

  • Could you please send me a detailed tutorial step by step in a .docx document for Word? If you agree, contact me.

  • @Fallschirmjaeger963 .i am glad that you are able to fly fsx comfortably.i humbly and kindly request the same as this is an opportunity not to be missed.lets respectively share the forum .thanks in advance

  • Thank you Very much! very well explained....sounds like some real instructor ****

  • Thank you very much... This works pretty much the same is FS2004, right?

  • Thanks DN -- great video understood both Part 1 and 2......

  • question...when you are alined at the runway...is it okay to turn off the morse code thing?...it's kinda annoying hehehe...

  • @ShadowJedZ press Q ...it will mute your soundz

  • Hello!, when i set altitude and vert speed on, the plane is decending very much. Please help i really want help! :)

  • Informative. Thanks.

  • does course # have to do anything with ILS ?

  • @TheIceBuck3t Thanks i know that mission is not but when i did it normally without the mission aswell the ils works but the plane chases the localiser and lands right of the runway which is the grass on a diagonal approch also meaning i go off to the right into the sea!

  • the altitude switch doesnt go off when i try this... what do u guys think that i might be doing wrong?

  • dude thanks i finally understood it! :P

    i flew from KPAE to KSEA and made a successful ILS land.. then i wanted to make the flight back from KSEA to KPAE.. when i started to approach KPAE i changed from GPS to NAV the plane turned back to KSEA! O.O what happened?

  • Great tutorial, very clear, thanks. Only thing I'm still strugling with is to convert the picture to a less sofistiaced plane like the FSX native moony bravo, for instance, I cant find what to look for instead of the diamond shown on the screen in this video, or where to look for the GS indicator. Can anyone help me out?

  • I can never seem to line up with the proper runway heading unless i use gps first to line me up. Afterwards,I then use the nav/loc approach to land. Is this correct to do?

  • Hey i have the demo and have ordered the full gold edition game of FSX

    Currently in the demo i have tried this in Princess Juliana TNCM ILS 113.00

    But when i try this and your other video my plane never flies itself and i always have to correct approaches and stuff always goes wrong but for somereason i dont think the NAV or the Ap are connecting together

    Can you give me any help on this?

    If you have time

    Thanks man!

  • after watching this 7-8 times and searching it on google, i can finally say, I UNDERSTAND IT!!!!!

  • tnx

    

  • Ohhhh I get it!!! I totally forgot 2 turn on nav1 lol ty man

  • I receive the morse code from 80 miles away. However I do not get the diamond and I do not appear in the glide scope. I fly from Amsterdam (EHAM) to Brussel (EBBR). I set the direction to Brussel with my GPS and I set the auto-pilot. With the map I receive the VOR frequency and I put it on NAV when I'm around 25 miles out. The tower does not search radio contact with me and I don't get both diamonds. Annoys the hell out of me.

  • @bionominaal U get the diamond when u are 200ft above land ... and inside airport airspace !

  • @bionominaal make sure your flight director is on..

  • @bionominaal Fly at 2500 feet to intercept the glideslope at about 20 miles from airport.

  • Are you a real Pilot?

  • @alkhars11 At 7:38 onwards he tells you he is not. :) But im sure if he went for lessons he would be fine.

  • I'm still confused, can anyone help me understand?

  • im never seeing those diamonds :S

  • how the fark am i spose to remember all of this

  • thnx man i really understood it :) you really helped me

  • It is not working fo me i inter septed the locolelizer and i put nav hold on then when i intersepted the glideslope i ternd on approch hold and nothing happens and i go strate over the airport what am i doing rong??? :(

  • if you fly IFR will atc give you the frequency automatically?

  • When finding the ILS landing frequency from the GPS, is it the same frequency as the VOR station in the first video? Thanks, great videos. :)

  • do you have a video of altitude holder autopilot from an a321

  • Ok i See The Runway The Red Light Come Below Glidescope As Im Coming I Turn On APP And Then My Aircraft Just Descends So Fast And It Crashes Pllzz Help

  • @fsxgamer1 happen to me too :(

  • @GHOXTZX Heyy Man Thanxx For The Reply But I Found Out How Desend To 1,000 Than Go To Your GPS (Shift+3) Or Find It By Views On The Menu On The Top When You Reach The Green Line Than Press APP. :)

  • 1 thing that i dont get it ... i set all the stuff correct in nav 1 but when i turn on nav it will not go to the right direction .. any 1 can help?

  • hello mate, what do i need to do to swtch on the (Bellow g/s) ? thanks

  • your tutorials helped me heaps, thanks. one question though. does the glide slope direct you straight on to the runway to land or do you have to do a turn to land?

  • hey brother i cant land using your method please guide me. I am using A380 in FSX. I want to land on dubai airport using runway 30R. ican hear the morse code but still the plane doesnt land automatically. Plus the altitude indicator doesnt go off automatically. PLease guide me on this

    Thanks

  • Does the course needle effect ILS at all?

  • Is VOR LOC the same as the NAV button in FS2004?

  • Ok now I get it thnks

  • ok so now... i intercepted my horizontal... i hit nav hold and my plane just turned around going away from the airport. then i lost the ILS frequency and auto pilot disabled the nav hold. wut the hell is going on... why cant i get this right? im following every thing you do... exactly everything u do.

  • ok... i intercepted the horizontal and then the vertical... i hit approach hold and bad shit started happening... my diamonds were in the right spots and stuff but my plane just nosed up and started climbing... wtf? i followed this tutorial to a T.

  • A lot to remember, but great tutorial!

  • m8 what recorder you use for this tutorial?

    i also suscribe and like video thanks

  • do you move the course if you do where do you get the course hedding from

  • ok so the diamond fell below the center but the altitude hold did not turn off, my plane did not decend. when i turned it off my self plane just pulled up until i turned the altitude hold on again. please help

  • I have problems getting below the glide slope please help

  • isnt the ils tutorial way easier

  • Nice and easy to understand Tutorial, Well Done!!! :)

  • thanks man i finally understand and now knows hot to make a perfect landing but i would like to know how to do it completely manually...like in case of emergency...

    but thanks your tutorial is great....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Hi DN,

    Do you possibly remember what the weather theme was? It looks very nice, and I love flying through clouds.

  • when the nav1 button at the bottom of the radio stack is lit up, does it mean that morse code is going to work, or is it going to be muted?

  • How am I suppose to make the autopilot fly the plane to a specific runway of my choice only using the map. (Please respond. Would help A LOT.)

  • What is the purpose of nav hold?

  • does this work for fs2002?

  • @kilman33 it does for fs2004

  • hey DNthenumber10 good job, this is a perfect tutorial

  • Very good video man, thanks for making such a complicated task so simple,

    Thank you

  • wait i have a question how do you get the course number e.c.t. 180

  • THANKSSS!!!!! Finally i understood it lol! GREAT tutorial!!! only one question: the morse code keeps beeping. is it possible to turn it off? :P

  • @theFSXsimmer Click on the NAV1 (or NAV2) button at the bottom of radio stack.

  • @DNthenumber10 wont this disable the approach hold?

  • this is the hardest and longest autopilot function.

  • ok so i got my plane to line up but it started to touch down way to early i was still on the grass when i touched down how do i fix this

  • im doing like you said but im sure im just missing something or forgetting to switch something on or off at the right time i get all the ils frequencies and get to the airport but usually the plane doesnt land on the runway but lands in the bush

    could you msg me a step by step what you do from takeoff and at what time during the flight you perform what function and when im wanting to land at what time i disengage what if you have time id appreciate it thanks

  • i think you explain this really well but i dont know why im not landing the plane on the run way im doing everything like you said but my plane lands after the runway usually in the mountainsheheheh maybe im doing something wrong with the heading before i leave i get the ils frequency put it in the nav1 and switch it in i take of set height and speed put autopilot on i do pick up the morse code near destinatio and when i see the second pink diamond switch on approach hold but doesnt work

  • when i have the first diamond the other one for the glide slope isnt showing up

  • awsome video bro. i've been trying to land my 737-800 to any destination i go under ILS approach, but i have no success. hahaha. i seem to fly just fine to the Airport, but always fail to land it. hahah. i hope i can land this shit now. thanks man. good stuff. the lessons in the FSX are kind of retarted, a bit counfusive and well, they dont really specify the actual techniques on how to do it. keep up the good work man, you'll one day become a pilot.

  • thanks alot man this plus the other video helped me alot

  • Dnthenumber 10 please help I have done everything you have done , putted in the freqency for the landing and the headingnumber, putted the gps to nav and approshhold switch.

    But the plane is going to another direction away from the airport!!

    Why? Please help!

  • These were too fantastic tutorials. Thank you!

  • Hey thnx for the video. But if i want to go to a other city how do i do that? I can't enter the name of the city in the gps, i mean i can but if i want to go to Amterdam for exmaple, what must I type? You typed ''KSEA'' for your city, how did you know you had to type KSEA ?

  • I did do exactly like you but why are the aircraft not following the line in the GPS!?

    Does it matter if I have the demo version ?

  • @SWE370 Try to switch to GP and then activate nav hold

  • I'm completely lost.

    I wish there was a decent tutorial to explain the basics of ILS.

  • @CosmicDebris77 I am sorry you are having trouble with the ILS. Where are you getting lost?

  • @CosmicDebris77 there are easier ways to do these things than what is shown here, like getting all of the frequencies from the map in Flight-Planner, the virtual cockpit mode, or by pressing 'Esc' and hitting 'flight analysis'. Hover the mouse over points of interest to get the frequencies, etc. Although it's good to learn all the different ways of doing things, it's best to start with the easiest approach first.

  • Here I had a probelm 2 flights In a row (the first with an Airbus A321 and the 2nd with a 737-800) the plane randomly turns while in autopilot. What can I do to fix that?

  • After turning on NAV hold on GPS mode or APP hold on NAV mode the plane usually banks right for a bit but after awhile it will align. To work-around this do your operations farther away :).

  • @Acecombatzer0 It's not random. There's a reason for it. Was it set to GPS, Nav, what? You need to explain what your autopilot settings are before anyone can figure out what's wrong.

  • @Dirtfire na i fixed it but thanks for offering

  • 250kts on approach and final? :P

  • thank you so much :D these two videos made life sooooooooo much easier landing wise!!!

  • Could you please upload a visual approach and landing tutorial video. Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeee

  • Hey, there is no way to make the airplane pitch up a few seconds before the touch down with the autopilot ON??

  • ILS landnig will do that

  • @SP33D3Rz yes you can....

    before you touch the ground press Z and that will shut down your Autopilot en the pitch up the nose..

  • @SP33D3Rz in real life there is but not in all the fsx aircrafts.

  • what if the airport doesnt have the ils frequency for the runway?

  • then you do a visual aproach and landing

  • 737? no problem if you use something like "Multi Crew Experience"

    Google it up!

    There is a demo you can try for free :-))

  • thank you for the info! your tutorials are making my gameplay experience a lot more fun!

  • you have joystick for this game

  • Video is awesome.....but all the time i was keeping an eye on heading selector.....every time when appears its another heading......what about that.....i succeded ils just for KSEA rnwy 16L but i cant do ils for other airports....did you used heading selector....??.

  • Hey there babac95, the heading selector should not affect the ILS in any way unless the Heading Hold is activated.

  • Hi, gr8 informative vids, but cud u giv me sum idea how to autoland using an AIRBUS, i jus cant seem to figure it out.. Many thanx..

  • great vid dude that helped me a lot!

  • Awesome video, now I think I understand.

    I have one question though.

    When I use GPS to fly to my destination, the approach hold does not seem to work if my plane is on the opposite side of the runway compared to specific heading specified by the map (map shows ils freq, and heading).

    Thanks~

  • best ILS tutorial on Youtube!!

  • you are good

    thanks for the vid

  • AWESOME:) !!!!!!!!

  • help the two dimonds dont move and are stuk in the middle and when i turn the approch on it drives me into the ground

  • tanks soo much this helped me ALLOT!!

  • What kinda joystick do you use?

     I'm planning on getting one soon

  • I use the Logitech Extreme 3D Pro.

  • me2

  • what plane is this?

  • This is the default Boeing 737.

  • thanx so much, these 2 tutorial of u'rs on how to make an ils landing r the best ive seen (and ive seen alot.) u'rs aculay helped

  • cool thanks

    very good

  • THANX! MAN

  • thanx a very good explaination of the nav hold and approach hold. it was unclear before and the appearance of diamonds on the flight display was brought to notice. good work DN keep it up

  • Just a quick question, I've managed to follow your tutorial until the moment where you intercept the ILS frequency and you get the responding morse-code. However when I turn on nav-hold to intercept the vertical slope the plane just banks to the right and start going round and round. I think I've followed your steps correctly. I turned the switch from GPS to NAV and turned off Nav-hold until the morse-code is sounding but then when I turn on nav-hold again. It seems like the plane gets confused.

  • I dont see the pink diamond on the airbus ... something im doing wrong? thx.

  • wow, finally a useful tutorial.. thanx man, that helped =)

  • thanks

  • dude thanks!

  • when i try to do this my autopilot takes me in too high over the runway and it isnt lined up and it is diagonal its a complete mess. can you help me?

  • dude i have same problem, but my 1 gets the hight rite, but it misses the runway by like 800~900 yards, can you help me?

  • i will get it someday. i;ve been trying to decipher this problem by taking the lessons provided by the game and youtube videos, but still this thing doesnt work. i will keep trying.any advice,,will be more than welcome.

  • this video gave me a gretarer understanding of the controls. but i still cant make the plane find or land the desired runway. the plane behave by just turning in circles and far away from the airport or just get centered with the horizintal localizer but in the opposite direction of the airport. must be a problem(beside myself) with the pre flight adjustments, because the atc tower never gave me the option of request landing.

  • awesome!!!!just what i needed. thanks dude

  • Great ,that's just the information i needed to perform an ILS landing, because my main problem was intercepting the glide slope..., i was getting lined up with the runway but i wasn't descending correctly. Once again thanks :) !!

  • Hi..

    Is this tutorial useful, to land with ILS, or do I have to follow and use your description in your ILS tutorial video too?

  • It's essentially the same thing as my ILS tutorial, just explained a little differently. The process is, for the most part, the same. In this video I just focus more on the autopilot functions needed for an ILS landing, while the ILS tutorial is more complete because it takes you down all the way to the landing.

  • Okay, i tried to make an ILS landing, but i failed when i was about 1000 feet in the air. I turned the speed down to 140 before I could even see the runway. But I know how to do everything right :)

    Thank you very much - because of the two videos that you have made, I can finally perfom an ILS landing. It could be nice, if you could do a more detailed tutorial. But again - great, great video - It helped so much!

  • Thanks for the comment! Glad I could help out :)

  • thanks much - this helps alot!!!!!

  • How do u turn on the that little panel to display the map? i dont have it :(

  • i have a question.

    How do you turn on glide slope so the morst code comes on? And how do you intercept the localizer? Thats it.

  • Hey cravefave, to turn on the Morse code simply press the button at the bottom of the radio stack that corresponds to the NAV radio that you entered the ILS frequency in. For example, if the ILS frequency is in the NAV1 slot, press the NAV1 button at the bottom of the radio stack.

    To intercept the localizer, you first need to be in it's range. You are in range if you can see the horizontal diamond on your Flight Director. Make sure you are facing the runway and hit the NAV Hold to intercept.

  • Pls make a new ILS tutorial

  • Thx man that was usefull xD

  • Great tutorials!! But i have a quick question. The flaps help the plane slowdown and pitch up correct? And the reverse thrust helps the plane slow down when it touches down right?

  • Thanks! Yes, the flaps create more drag which slows you down. They also create more lift, which prevents you from having to pitch up at slow speeds. And yes, the reverse thrust helps slow you down on the ground.

  • Tnx =D

  • the glideslope arrow does not fall. dont know why. am i dong something wrong

  • Hmmm. If it doesn't fall, then it probably means you are too low. What was your altitude when you tried this?

  • i mean what % do you set it to when landing

  • I think generally (I could be wrong) you should have full flaps by the time you land. I know that there are established flap settings based on the phase of the approach, but they are different for each aircraft and you would have to look them up. I just add them as needed and make sure I don't exceed flap speed limits. I usually add more flaps if I see that my aircraft is pitching up in order to maintain altitude during descent.

  • thx so much for the quick response. youve made fsx fun for me. what do you do with the flaps. could you explain pls. thanks. again thanks alot
