...why do you care about antenna position???

On Airbuses, LLZ signal is processed so the deviation displayed on PFDs is that between the LLZ beam and the aircraft yaw axis...
The fitted Multi-Mode Receivers take care of that.


Fatfish, p51guy...on all Airbus FBW aircraft, glide and loc antennas are located in the nose area...that does not mean that the nose is aligned with the LLZ signal during an ILS app.! Otherwise, every x-wind landing would be scary...
