B-777 Back Course Approaches
Could someone please confirm the following regarding a LOC back course approach.
If the approach is selected from the FMC, the frequency for the ILS front course is auto tuned as well as the front course.
The approach can then be flown in LOC and another suitable vertical mode.
Can the same be said if you fly a LOC back course to an airfield which is not in the FMC database?
So, you would manually tune the ILS front course with the front course QDM and again fly it in LOC.
So when would you not follow the LOC command flying this kind of approach?
Thanks
