just a quick question...how do I line them up properly in the AFCAD editor ? do I have to adjust the LOC or Glide Path or DME ? I've try moving the LOC and centered it with the runaway but still doesn't work (the aircraft land more to the right)..

I'm working on WMKK (Kuala Lumpur International Airport) AFCAD..

Thank you for any help :)

Try creating an ILS for a specific runway. That way it should be lined up properly.

The ILS transmitter is located at the opposite end of the runway from the approach.  The localizer signal is transmitted down the centerline of the entire runway and out to the approach end.  It provides the left/right deviation to the aircraft instruments.

The glideslope transmitter is located either left or right of the runway at the touchdown target location.  It provides the prefered slope to the aircraft (up/down from path).

Using AFCAD, I just looked at the default WMKK layout and the four ILS seem to be set up correctly for 14L/R and 32 L/R.  I don't know why your planes would be aimed to the right.
