Thanks Jake. I plan on doing that in the future. Maybe soon. I figured for this tutorial I would keep it as bare bones as possible. Next ILS video I'll make it real to life with plates.
Very helpful - thank you. One question - for quite a bit of the video, once you had selected the Airport (by using "Nearest"), and then the Procedure (ILS - Vectors), the bottom right of the G1000 PFD kept flashing "Activate?" - surely you needed to press this to get the whole shebang working? Or is this an error/bug currently in the G1000 Nxi? Thanks in advance, Alasdair
Great question. You should hit activate to get the entire approach loaded in the GPS. That would be correct procedure. We were only intercepting the ILS instead of doing the full procedure. Vectors skips about half of the approach and starts you directly on the ILS. So yes I should have pressed activate especially if I was doing the full procedure but ILS will still work if you dont. Vectors is a short cut that you can use IRL also. ATC directs you straight to final approach.
I’ve done ILS landings with auto pilot all the way to touch down and just used throttle to control rate of decent .
Good Video. Thanks. Maybe one done along with showing the landing plate would be good to follow along with items like the minimums and step downs.

@@Keyboard_Flight_Academy Thanks!
If you made it out alive then it’s a great landing 🙌🏼

@@Keyboard_Flight_Academy Thank you for the speedy and full response. Duly noted! Regards, A
Pressing “Activate” would dial in and load the localizer. You loaded it manually, so it still worked.
and by load the localizer that means instead of manually tuning to the freq like he did on the nav button, it auto does it for you? thanks@@tubeslats
Which plane are you flying in the video?
Looks like the Beechcraft Bonanza to me.
I thought the cessna 208 caravan..

That propeller animation is awful at the time of your recording .
