[buza]

When importing the world database, application creates ILS items only for RWYs which have ILS in real. It is because of safety.
Application cannot expext clear and safe glideslope on RWYs which have no ILS (terrain, obstacles, etc.). At this case FLY is FUN creates items called RWY and you have only horizontal guidance.

But... If you are familiar with your airport, you can change RWY nav item to ILS:

1. Permanent RWY item change
- Long tap at RWY item
- Select Edit RWY
- Click on Item Type
- Select ILS Approach
- Threshold crossing altitude will be filled by default value 50ft and Glide slope angel by 3 degrees. You can change this value.
- Press Scave Changes

2. Temporary RWY item change
- Long tap at the RWY item
- Select Navigate (ILS approach)
- Check Threshold crossing altitude and Glide slope angle
- Press ILS approach

hi petr,

thx for quick answer.

I tried as described permanently changes it worked fine, but only one time. trying the second runway or another airfield I can't select "edit runway"

instead of this the screen changes automatically to "edit izem" . items can be changes, but not saved/stored.

pls help again
thx in advance

I do not know what are you doing Can you describe it more? You can change all RWY items, one by one...

issue closed

first step is to enter via data base. and this I didn’t....
now it runs.

but one more question: how to create runways on fields (e.g. LOLH) where they are not stored from your side ?

thx for your help and patience

When you create your own airport:
1. Create RWY or ILS nav item for each RWY
2. Create APT nav item at the centre of the airport

If you fill ICAO code at cerated items, when editing item press VHF button and you can add VHF.
