Thank you. Been having problems grasping the autopilot. So many other videos seem to over complicate this and you make it easy to follow. New sub here.
In the quarry it seems 90% of airports are not equipped with ILS, or am I missing something? There is only a direct visual approach mode or something like that. in this case, the autopilot can provide almost nothing during landing and landing in bad weather is simply unbearable. I flew on a jet in such cases simply by the instrument, since it accurately displays the runway even if nothing is visible outside the window. but recently I bought a Pilatus 12 and there is no such screen, in bad weather I feel like a blind kitten on such runways for which you cannot set up an automatic approach
A lot of the smaller airports don’t have ILS, so it would be a DME or VOR chart approach. The other option is if the plane has a Garmin G3000 or G5000 a visual approach can be programmed in to any airport to be flow by the autopilot. But I agree, especially in career mode the weather can be terrible.

Glad it helped! Any others questions or things you want a video on let me know!

It’s possible to activate the Synthetic Vision on the PC-12, although the menus for that are not intuitive.
