MSFS - LDA with Glideslope approach Tutorial (AH IFR flight lesson 9.1)

Hello flight simmers, and welcome back to Alpha Hotel Flight simulator training.
This video is part 1 of 2 on flying LDA approaches. In this video, we'll talk about what an LDA approach is and how to fly them - then we'll take to the air in the G1000 equipped Cessna 172 to fly an LDA approach with a glideslope.
In the next video, we'll look at how to fly and LDA approach without a glideslope.

Incredible walk-through! The best ever imo! . Your videos are Invaluable!! And its great that you use high resolution recording as well, Top! Thanks! :)
One question: The required standards in Part-B are for hand flying, Right?
Thanks, David.

Thanks for the kind words @skinnyfat6840. Glad you enjoyed the content, and found it helpful.
The standards in the ACS are applicable for both hand flying and using automation. The examiner wants to see that you are safe and proficient - and is also evaluating your judgement. I would lean towards using the maximum amount automation available on a checkride, as that is usually the safest way to fly. That being said, it wouldn't be out of the realm of possibility for an examiner to say "oh dear, the autopilot isn't working" during a portion of the checkride to see you demonstrate proficiency at hand flying.

Hi,
How do you control the avionics buttons on MSFS? I am finding this very challenging to say the least. I am using a joystick and throttle from Logitec. I can find anything on you RUclips. HELP me, please.

[@AlphaHotelFlightSimulation]

@robbbonefish6877, the easiest way to interact with the avionics in MSFS is by using a mouse - though some buttons can be programmed to joystick or keyboard functions if you wish.

@@AlphaHotelFlightSimulation Thank you for the help.
So, Can I just plug the mouse and keyboard in and play? Or are there downloads? System set ups? Etc…
