The Localizer Simulator gives you the opportunity to fly around the Localizer and observe the effects of bearing changes, directional changes, and wind on the Localizer indications. The Simulation displays the ADF Indicator, Turn Coordinator, Attitude Indicator, and Directional Gyro.
- Heading - for ILS trainers it is recommended that this be either 90 or 270 degrees to take advantage of available screen space.
- Width - the width of the localizer
- Show back course - shows or hides showing the back course.
- Show centerline - shows or hides the centerline of the localizer and glide slope.
- Show service volume - shows or hides the localizer's service volume.
- Press the "left" or "right" button to turn the plane in that direction.
- As long as you hold the button down, the plane's direction will change.
and red indicates the simulation is stopped. When pressed, the simulation will start. The plane's position will be calculated based on its speed, direction, bank, and the wind's direction and speed.
and green indicates the simulation is running. When pressed, the simulation will stop. The plane's position and heading will no longer change until it is started again. When a simulation is resumed, the plane will begin calculating its position from the point where it was stopped.
