Mykk001 Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 Snag as follows: 5 miles finals to Senaki RW 09 at 1500ft QFE. I should be intercepting the GP at this stage for a 3 degree GP. Image 1. ILS set for Senaki RW 09 (108.9) and switched on. TACAN 31X on. Image 2. TACAN selected on NMSP. Needles stowed. Image 3. TACAN de-selected, ILS selected and needles enabled but both localiser and glide path shown as inoperative. What am I doing wrong?
Hansolo Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 Now I admit that I am not fully sure but it looks like your ILS is not turned ON. When I look at the line to OFF it seems like arrow indication covers some of line thus in OFF position. Picture is "Freq".

Mykk001 Posted January 14, 2015 Author Posted January 14, 2015 DuH!!!!!!! I assumed that when I could see the long white mark on the ILS on/off switch it was on. Zooming in to the max I see I was in error. Thanks for that. All now working as advertised. Gratefully Mykk
ptako Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 Anyway you should listen to TACAN and/or ILS morse codes to make sure they're on and that you're tuned to intended source. It would solve your problem in this case. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] -- "The three best things in life are a good landing, a good orgasm, and a good shit.

Mykk001 Posted January 14, 2015 Author Posted January 14, 2015 Yes, you're right of course had I listened for the ident or registered that there wasn't one I should have twigged what my mistake was. All well that ends well Mykk
