Jeremy,

I know this probably sounds like a "flip" answer....... but head to the Learning Center in fs2004.  These kind of basic flying issues are reasonably well covered.

It helps if you start with simple planes and navigation issues and work your way up.

There are some good ILS tutorials.... check the "tutorials" section here.... and if you can't find something suitable there..... do a Google.

best,

.....................john

Well, in reply to the previous posts,

What are you flying?

Where are you going?

Does your aircraft have nav instruments?

an intelligent answer beyond what the previous posters have rightfully pointed out depends on your answers to these questions.

Hi
Before your flight  make sure you are on IFR to your destination airport and  ATC Will take you to the the threshold .
