Fly target VS for the GS - use your trackline on the bottom of the PFD to fly the LOC
Are you talking about pseudo raw data or serious raw data? Big difference.
Forget trackline stuff. Forget the bird too. Use EHSI mode which is heading up and where you have a whacking great localiser in front of you rather than trying to track a tiny itsy bitsy localiser on your PFD. It is easy to see the drift angle and better still if there is any decent crosswind you will instinctively see in what direction to look through the windscreen when you look for the runway. And don't forget to start glancing up as part of your scan when approaching 2-300 ft above the DH in order to pick up early visual cues. Presumably you have the autothrottle turned off of course.
