Tune your NAV1 radio to the Localizer frequency. Assuming FS2004, details
are in the Learning Center on use of ILS. If FS2002, check the Help files,
same info.

Also, since you are obviously new to flying, (or at least instrument
flying), I do recommend this site for a bunch of helpful tutorials.

Scroll to the middle/bottom of the page.

Paul,

Thanks, that worked perfectly. I got the localizer frequency from a page on
the GPS, tuned in on NAV 1 and voila! I picked up the localizer beacon and
turned to the runway heading. Airport dead ahead.

I'm doing an around the world trip from Worcester Massachusetts going west
through Canada, Alaska, etc. and meandering my way through Japan, southeast
Asia, India, the Middle East, North Africa, South America Central America,
the Carribean and up the East Coast of USA.

I've got thousands of hours in MS flight sim (starting from the early days
before SubLogic sold it to Microsoft) but only recently have gotten into
IFR. What a gas this FS2004 is!

Thanks again, Paul, you saved my ass.
