MSFS ILS Approach


Recommended Posts

when i tune in ILS frequency at large airports using a320 why does the glideslope ball not show up on some runways (but will show up on others) ?

 

thanks

Are you sure it's an ILS? There are many places that have localizer-only approaches, so As James said the what/where/freqs might help to answer this.

 

 

OK, yesterday i wanted to do ILS approaches at KTPA runway 1L/1R and tried 19L/19R, there was no glideslope. Went to CYYZ 06L and glideslope worked.

Tried both the default A320 and FlyByWire stable A320.

The ILS for 01L is 108.9, 19L is 110.3, 19R is 108.5, and 01R is 111.95 but 01R is a LOC, that is, localizer only approach. You might check what freq(s) you were using.

Ya when i check the frequency say KTPA 01L it appears on my PFD but only the localizer bubble is seen, no glideslope bubble

I am learning the A320 still, used to boeing but i assume i have everything clicked ?????

Nav button clicked ON, ILS clicked ON correct ILS frequency tuned in and set on left side of display

FD button ON and LS button ON,

anything i am missing ???

 

 

Thanks

I've found the ILS for KTPA to be screwy at times, I usually use 19R and some days it works, others it does not. I come in from Brooksville to KTPA. I know this is not much help.

 

I would try some other ones, Clearwater has worked for me in the past, Sarasota/Bradenton, and Orlando (KMCO)

 

ILS 8 in KJAX works most of the time as well
