folks-It's microsoft's fault. Again. They didn't get every ILS feather lined up probably because they didn't fix it or go back to check it. after all-there aren't a whole lot that do that, when you think of 24,000 airports in the game. It's just one of those things that probably got looked over somehow, as irritating as it may seem. And you probably don't want to rely on ILS alone all the time to land your aircraft via autopilot-you might be better off using those airports as practice fields in inclimate weather. ;)

I'm just and old schooler, and thru the miracle of flight sim I can feel what it must have been like to be a pionnering aviator. But let's not forget that tecnology is good and Flying a 747 is a pretty big responsibilty. I'm working on getting that IFR certficate, It took me 9 times to get the private Pilot one, and I'm really looking foward to the ATP checkride. But when I ain't in a rush and wanna see the scenery and fell the wind in my hair, that's when I take the Yam out for a ride ;D and when i'm home taking a breck , I'd rather fire up the sim than watch the BooB tube. And depending on the situation I'm either seat of my pants or 30,000' in the air, and puttin them back down on the ground is mandatory so keep on learning!

Dont be so sure on that its all microsoft's fault. Like said on the other page, it wont perfectly line you up its your descision at 200ft weather you have to go around or land the bird.
