ILS offset (heading different than in Charts)

Post by SilverWings » Tue Jan 28, 2014 5:42 am

Hi,

It has come to my attention that when approaching, eg, runway 03L the ILS course is set to 033 (using PMDG 737NGX) whereas it should have been 034, as this is the published runway heading in the charts. Also, it seems that the runway heading in FS is indeed 033, since when on the centerline, that's the heading indication I receive.

I have tried a free tool that supposedly fixes magnetic variations, but it doesn't seem to solve the problem.

Is there a solution to this?

Bests,
Panayiotis

I'm not very knowledgeable regarding this sort of problem but you might be able to adjust the mag var for LGAV by editing the afcad file with a tool like Airport Design Editor.
