Localizer Approach
49
Step 1. HDG/ATT or
ALT. The localizer or ILS
approach begins with a
transition
from
the
enroute structure to the
outer compass locator
(LOM). The heading bug
is used to select the
desired heading.
The
aircraft's attitude may be
controlled by the modifier
switch or through the use
of the altitude mode.
Step 2. REV/ATT or
ALT. Upon reaching the
LOM, turn the heading
bug
to
the
outbound
course of the ILS and
press the REV switch.
The
autopilot
will
intercept
and
track
outbound.
Step 3. REV/ATT or
ALT. Upon tracking the
localizer, the system will
compensate
for
crosswind and enter the
"soft track" mode.
Step 4. HDG/ATT or
ALT. At the appropriate
time, press the HDG
switch
to
begin
the
procedure turn. Altitude
appropriate to this phase
of the approach should
be controlled using ALT
or ATT as necessary.
Step 5. HDG/ATT or
ALT. Proceed outbound
in the procedure turn
until sufficient time has
elapsed to assure proper
re-interception.
