if you have the ils frequencies for runways you can programme them in and use autoland for a while until you're like 200ft up

also lol i used to be a controller on vatsim back in the day. stansted luton and (for a brief while) i was on heathrow. gd times

Autoland until 200ft? Autoland can land the plane :)

yeah hence the term 'autoland'. i mean if you struggle to land but want to do the actual landing part yourself you can use autoland then disengage autopilot at 200ft. by that time everything's configured correctly you just literally need to not touch anything until you tilt back a bit and touchdown

I've just managed to land my first jet (Half on the runway) using ILS but for some reason it made the jet turn just before we landed? @,Alpha, what FSX you got? FSX or FSX 2004?

Let's prevent some confusion here.

There is no "FSX 2004"

In terms of what you are talking about it's the following:

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004: A Century of Flight

Now this has been called many things over the years and people call it: Flight Simulator 2004, FS2004 or FS9.

Microsoft Flight Simulator X

Flight Simulator X or FSX.
