ILS Landing AFC "Beirut-Rafic Hariri", Course?

[AngryViper.101]

Hi

When making an ILS landing i manage to lookup the ILS frequency, but what course should I use?

when i come in to land like this i input course 35 degrees, but the ILS horizontal and vertical bars were way off and did not help much?

The F10 map uses True headings instead of Magnetic. Subtract the magnetic variation from True to obtain the Magnetic heading.

OK so must I add 6 to my 35 degrees and so use 41 for my course?

Other way around; subtract the magvar from True to get Magnetic.

In short for the ILS approach to ruway 03, set course 030 heading, and for the VOR DME approach to runway 03, set course 029 heading.

The challenge is that you want to fly the blue line but you see the red line because the placement of the vor station

When in PLS/TCN the CDI/ADI vertical bar/HUD vertical bar show the localizer position and not TACAN course. Naturally in TCN HSI mode then the CDI will be by the TACAN course which has that small offset. Only the bearing needle and range are to the TACAN in PLS/TCN (or INS in PLS/NAV). By the time the difference between TCN course and ILS loc (in terms of CDI) matters, you should already be referencing ILS.

When you're flying a documented ILS procedure (and not just making it up) it's clear what is supposed to happen when, what's the reference, and what values to use.

The declination in Syria in about 6° east (+6°). You can think of it as the true heading of 360° magnetic. So when you're X magnetic you're X+6 true. That's why you subtract 6 from true to get magnetic with variation is east.
