shb7 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 I've been trying to do a ils landing with the xcub for a while, but it hasn't been working. I haven't been getting the line on the display telling me which Side of the runway I'm on. I set the nav2 frequency to the ils frequency, turn nav2 on and set the gps/vor switch to vor. But then I noticed on the display,it was saying vor1. So I set the nav1 frequency to the ils frequency and selected nav1, and then i got the line, so the ils landing worked! But i thought planes always use nav2 for the ils frequency? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lnuss Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 In real life, if there's not a glide slope on both radios, it'll normally be the number one NAV that has the glide slope on it. Not many Cubs have that capability, though there are a few. Larry N. As Skylab would say: Remember: Aviation is NOT an exact Science! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shb7 Posted November 21, 2020 Author Share Posted November 21, 2020 Just did an ILS landing with the a320 neo. It also uses nav1 for the ILS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
