Hi, Does anyone know of a tutorial that explains how to set up a series of waypoints with doglegs that the GPS can follow with Autopilot. Or does anyone know how to do it .
I am just wading through the Cat 1 Tutorial GPS 1 for the Garmin 500 . Boldpilot.

BP,
The GPS 500 in the Sim as far as I am aware is unable to do this. The real GPS 500 does have the capability though.

So, you are kinda stuck with what you have as far as the GPS goes, but you do have the ability to do this when setting up a ILS flight as always.

Thanks for your reply Cat. I thought an ILS flight was just for landing .Can an IFR flight be programmed with waypoints in FS9. BP

Oops, I meant IFR, not ILS. Sorry.

And another Ooops... Laughing
