Localizer Approach
Step 6. HDG/ATT or
ALT.
Lead the aircraft through
the procedure turn by
moving the heading bug
in the direction of the
turn.
Step 7. HDG/ATT or
ALT.
Continue to lead the
aircraft through the turn.
Step 8. APR/ALT.
Turn the heading bug to
the inbound front course
of the ILS and press the
APR switch. The
autopilot will establish a
45° intercept to the
localizer. When the
localizer is less than 98%
of full scale, the GS lamp
will illuminate to indicate
the autopilot is armed for
glideslope.
Step 9. APR/ALT/GS.
After intercept, the
system will correct for
crosswind and enter into
the "soft track" mode.
Internal radio gains and
bank angles will be
limited.
Step 10. APR/GS.
As the glide slope beam
is captured, the ALT lamp
will extinguish. The
system will track the
localizer and glide slope.
Power changes should be
made in small increments
as necessary to maintain
correct airspeed.
Step 11. HDG/ATT
Once the aircraft has
reached minimums,
disconnect the autopilot.
If a missed approach is
required, disconnect the
autopilot and establish
desired climb attitude and
airspeed. When
appropriate press HDG
and ATT and engage
autopilot.
