2) Use Heading Select Mode to comply with ATC
vectors as requested.
3) Tune the localizer frequency.
4) Press the APR Key when cleared for approach
to arm Approach and Glideslope modes. ‘LOC’
and ‘GS’ appear in white as armed mode
annunciations.
The navigation source on the HSI automatically
switches to LOC. After this switch occurs, the
localizer signal can be captured and the autopilot
and flight director determine when to begin the
turn to intercept the final approach course.
5) There are two options available at this point, as
the autopilot flies the ILS approach:
• Push the AP DISC Switch at the Decision
Height and land the aircraft.
• Use the
GA Switch to execute a missed
approach.
