![]() Control your speed and altitude until the the glideslope and engage appr hold. controlling speed heading and altitude, Once you are in range of the localizer you aircraft, if flown correctly will intercept the localizer. Grab the STAR chart on skyvector or airnav and vector yourself the way ATC would. Makes it far easier, and you are in control. my fix for this is a rather simple one, Take the AP off of managed mode and fly the aircraft using the FCU. The ND will display RNWY26L for example in the top right corner after crossing a certain waypoint. it happens to me at the top of my STAR quite often the aircraft will track the runway. I think i know what you are talking about. It’s just that it depends on the circumstances. This is not to say there are not bugs! And you might well be getting one. IRL few airliners would need to fly the full procedure - they would get Vectors from ATC to an intercept leg. ![]() If flying the full procedure you fly to the VOR (or directly towards the airport) then fly away from it to execute a ‘procedure turn’ which will put you on a course to intercept the localiser. Also you need to know what the transition for the approach is: many still have an initial fix which is a VOR at the airport eg GOW at Glasgow. MSFS actually has all these different types of approach in the base nav database and you need to know what the differences are. It depends on where you are at and what commands you have given the autopilot and what type of instrument approach you are flying: ILS, RNAV or VOR DME? ![]() ![]() Without a bit more information it’s hard to say what you might be experiencing: ‘heading straight towards the airport’ could be describing localiser capture from an intercept leg - expected and desired behaviour. ![]()
