Hi Haughtney 1: Ah, some common sense at last. You fly a raw data ILS in Raw Data ILS mode. Good stuff. It works on non-GPS a/c because the MAP might have shifted. That, plus the MAP, even in 5nm range gives a very small RWY symbol, so it is difficult to see exactly where the centre line is. Plus you have to cross reference that with the LOC on PFD; so you are scanning 2 screens for 1 dtaum. Meanwhile in Raw Data mode there is a bl£@dy great ILS deviation bar and an equally large TK line. 1 screen. Put one on top of the other and low and behold you are flying down the ILS centre line, assuming the ILS deviation bar is centred. If you see the TK line deviate Left or Right of the ILS symbol you simply return it to impose itself over the ILS beam bar. If the ILS deviation bar has moved you simply aim at it and bring it back to the centre. Child's play. 10 degrees of bank, max. easy to over control.
Fly the glideslope in constant configuration. Constant speed=constant attitude=constant V/S=constant Power=constant trim. All you have to do is guide (not fly) the a/c down the LOC. Fingers & thumbs. As the wind changes so will the vertical performance, but by very little, so smooth small changes to Power/ATT/Trim to keep correct V/S when on Glideslope. Ain't nothing magical; just get it set up early at Glideslope capture and keep it there. RELAX. Doddle.
