Thoserunways are RNAV/VOR approaches in real life, however.......... there is a program available from Flight1 called Airport Facilitator X used for editing afcad files allowing you to insert Instrument Landing Systems

If you are making a once-off version for your own use, look for Airport Design Editor ... written by Jon Masterson, and released as freeware. It is a well-written app, which won't corrupt all the approach data in the airport headers.


As has been mentioned, those runways don't have ILS RW, so there are no references to get data from. The general rule of thumb though, when inventing your own ILS is to pick a frequency that is not being used anywhere nearby (to avoid interference). All ILSs operate in the 108-110 approx MHz range. An easy way to check nearby ILSs is to load up Plan-G, centred on YMML, and mouse over all the neighbouring ILS feathers. The frequencies will pop up in the tooltips.


Pick a different frequency for each runway end. In the real world, runways normally only have one ILS switched on, so both ends can happily have the same frequency. FS doesn't handle that too well, and you'll oten pick up the back course from the reciprocal ILS, which isn't what you want!


thanks for your feedback guys,i guess thats the way its designed in real life and i want fsx to be as real as it gets,one question tho how do aircraft approach runway 34,or 9,would it be though the flight management of the aircraft??i only mainly fly default aircraft which is as basic as it gets and i land the plane under full control when runway 34 at ymml is active thanks.


VOR RWY 34 approach is done flying in from waypoint TONAR which is 11nm DME to VOR ML 114.1 on the 346 Radial. You should be at 3000' at TONAR and at DME 6.5nm you should be 1970'. At 2.7nm you should be at 720' which is the Decision height at which you should be able to see the runway to land Visually.


So basically position yourself 11nm DME south of ML VOR Freq 114.1 at 3000ft flying on the VOR radial 346, and descend at a rate so when at 6.5nm you are at 1970ft, then when at 2.7nm DME you should be able to see the runway to land. If not go around and use 27 and the ILS.


thanks for explaining that in great details martin and dylan,it makes alot of sense now on how they appoach that runway,i work in the flightpath of the ymml 34 and watch them line up and land ,its great to watch ,anyways thankyou for your replys guys.
