I'm about to give up on the 737, I just can't get it right...
When I line up perfectly with the ILS and try to lock to it, it tells me I have an invalid NAV in the FMC and I'm a giant questionmark :/
All the manuals and everything doesn't help me either as my english ain't the best... I tried reading them but they made me into a larger
questionmark...
I have no idea why I am getting the invaliv NAV, Suuuure, I use the FMC ans I do on the 747 and that is probably not the right way... I
probably need
some hardcore schooling in flightplanning and FMC use but it's hard when your english ain't good enough for it :/
PS, I'm swedish
Nasder don't give up mate, I know the problem with this and the answer: You MUST have both nave radios set to the correct frequency for
the ILS, otherwise the aircraft can't lock on. Once both NAV radios are on the same frequency and you are flying towards the ILS capture
point, switch on LOC on the autopilot then APP as well, she will do heading hold until the localizer comes alive, then once turned on to
the beam the whole autoland procedure should begin, make sure too that you have both AP's turned on, as well as autothrottle and the
autobrakes set. Make sure the autospoiler is set and pretty much once she's hooked up ... relax. The 600 is a sweetie on autoland and
usually flares just right for a smooth touchdown.
