Tbilisi - Lochini (UGTB) Localizers

[hsth]

On Tbilisi - Lochini the localizers for runway 31 outer 22 KHz and inner 345 KHz do not work. Put a MiG-15 hot on the ramp and select these frequencies on the K-7 control panel and the SUP=7 needle will show the wrong way.

Select the localizers for runway 13 and the SUP-7 will show the correct way.

Hi. Chances are your issue is caused by wind. Try changing the direction/strength of the wind.

Hi, thank you for the response.

The wind direction and force still dictate the selected runway. If that is correct or not I don't know. Below force 2 the direction doesn't matter, the runway is always 13R. Force 2 or higher the direction selects the runway. From 207^o - 49^o the runway is 13R, from 50^o - 206^o the runway is 31L.

When the mission starts hot on the ramp neither the wind nor the direction have an impact on the localizers. I get signals from stations 435 KHz & 923 KHz. Nothing from 211 KHz or 345 KHZ.

I'll do some more testing later today on starting from the runway.

Did some testing with start from runway. Because of previous findings it was easy to get plane on both sides of the runway.

31L    211KHz    no signal
         435KHz    15^o
         345KHz    no signal
         923KHz    0^o

13R    211KHz    no signal
         435KHz    195^o
         345KHz    no signal
         923KHz    0^o
