For ILS: (I don't know how MANY times it has been asked..use the search function first!!) http://forums.surclaro.com/ftopic1363.html

Regarding the GPS, there's a ton of info in the FS2004 inbuild learning center.

ok thanks for the quick respone..but i still got problems.
I printed out the whole 39 pages of the Tutorial and

prolbem 1) my flight went good until i had to "hit option 3 "choosing a dirfferent Approach." it would let me chosee the same runway as it describes int he tutorial so i picked a new runway then choose the other runway again. Am i suppose to click load or activate me selected approach??

after that i tried for another 30 mins to get it working but after that i figure the pros on here could help me out more

2) i couldnt find the frequencies lab in the gps, to fine my ils frequency

also: should I (ort is there a way) to make the flight plan and approach on the ground before taking off?)
thank you and i hope you can help me out ive be playing fs04 for a few months and done some lessons but i still have problems

1: Choose rwy.
2: Click LOAD
3: Click Activate Approch

3: For the freq, choose the map, click on the rwy you want the freq for and there ya go.

If u want it real and are listing to the ATC, nono, no way to select the rwy and put it in the GPS on the ground before departure (ONLY if u know the weather for your destenation) The rwy's chosen by ATC varies by the weather. You should always takeoff/land TOWARDS the wind, so u can't say for sure which rwy unless u know the weather. Hope this helped :)

since im still a newb i still you default weather most of the time with no wind, no clouds or anything, so could i do it in this case?
Thanks again, AL
