BOAC - You must really be bored to stick yourself into a very tiny, very type specific thread. Type that you obviously doesn't have.
ME - NEVER! The quote was yours
I said something close to "you track your runway track with your FPV. This FPV is fed by drifted IRS".
As you began your first post with your own conclusion:
crikey! I will definitely stick to Boeing, then.
I suggest you stick yourself to it
I'll stick to doing it my way, I think
Yeah, try it our way on Boeing...
not possible, (i think) you don't have that function!
Now, if you are curious, you can always ask. But please, don't feel frustrated. Even the majority of airbus pilots never heard about what I am talking about.
They may have read it somewhere in the FCTM, but very few noticed it in real life.
do REAL pilots actually use this for an ILS?
Don't worry, "REAL pilots" as you say, disconnect A/P at 500 feet after a 10NM level off at 2000ft and full automated ILS approach
The others, not so "REAL pilots", sometimes use the bird to fly raw data ILS.
TP-
Each pilot's FPV (bird) displays the track calculated by the onside IRS
Do you have a reference for that?
