I've already sent a support inquiry, but is anyone else having a problem intercepting an ils, specifically the glidescope path?  The plane has no trouble intercepting the ils course, but then it drops below the glidepath.  Am I doing something wrong? thanks

Are you watching your speeds and flap settings? Too fast and you can go above the GS, too slow and you sink below. Please forgive if I'm stating the obvious. Must admit I find holding speeds a bit tricky. I like the 146 but my PC doesn't, (stuttering sound and visuals Cry)
Must Fly!

I simply cannot get the ILS working right. It worked fine before the patch.  Can someone please confirm that I am not alone with this? I've written to support, but they ask for for a screen shot. They could simply provide me with simple instructions and an airport that they've tested it with and we can solve a lot of issue. This guess work is getting me too frustrated.  I am a very experienced simmer, so I don't think that the ILS should be so difficult to use. tc

I also am experiencing the aircraft not capturing the glideslope; it did prior to the SP.  I have tried many scenarios both above and below the gs, but it will not capture in any condition.  I have sent a note to Real Air.

Also cannot capture glideslope. Have tried approach to Manchester 050R at 1500',2000' and 3000' from 10 miles out. Capture the localiser OK but no movement from glideslope indicator. Just fly straight over. Anybody any ideas?

What plane are you flying? Same issue with all planes?

Using 146-200 with service pack. This is the only plane I have a problem with. My Ify 737 and PMDG Airbus capture the glideslope OK.

do you press the glideslope button only after the glideslope indicates in the middle? since the glideslope won't intercept anything above or below the middle and first bars (above or below)

manual says so too.

Cheers, Reg

Tried Manchester GS intercept with other planes without success. Checked data. FS Commander was giving me wrong frequency. Used database manager to update files. Have just intercepted GS and landed OK with the 146-200.
Thanks
