noted YBCG - incorrect ILS LOC frequency Rwy 14

[Striker]

When flying the ILS LOC approach into YBCG Rwy 14 on autoland in the the AS A320 and PMDG NGX 737 the aircraft touch  down well left of the runway threshold onto the taxi way. The published heading is 139 deg from REGOM - which was dialed in on both aircraft but the aircraft still wants to land left of the runway. I know YBCG is not rated for autoland Cat III approaches but the heading should still steer you to the DH at the threshold . I tried to check the ORBX YBCG afcad ILS course in ADE, but couldn't find it to open. The diagram shows the actual course flown. Could this be because of outdated Prepar3dv4.5 Navdata.

Is anyone having this ILS discrepancy at Goldcoast?

Hi Steve

 

When I do a regular ILS with APPR selected in the autopilot, it is bang on the money. Not sure why your chart shows 111.1 and mine shows as 111.5 for the ILS/DME?

Hi Doug,

 

111.5? Navigraph and Airservices Autralia (realworld AU publisher) both show 111.1 as the ILS/LOC frequency. 111.5 would explain why the the localizer and glideslope bar wasn't indicating a capture.

Here are the 2 reference charts I use. Curious though where did you get 111.5.

Thanks for the info I'll give that a try

When I run the database manager for my flightsim commander it just reads the scenery that I have installed, so it must be getting the data from the scenery files or Navigraph, which I keep updated.

 

Do you use Navigraph?

I found the anomaly, the ORBX YBCG afcad - YBCG_ADEX_ADE_WITH_STATIC_AIRPLANES.bgl shows 111.5, which is incorrect. 111.1 is the correct ILS LOC frequency for YBCG.

I'll let an ORBX moderator know.

Thanks Doug

During a recent flight  I noticed that the ILS LOC frequency for Rwy 14 YBCG is incorrect. On Airservices Australia and Jeppeson Charts the frequency is shown as 111.1, however the frequency in the YBCG_ADEX_ADE_WITH_STATIC_AIRPLANES.bgl afcad is 111.5.

 

Perhaps a ORBX Moderator could bring it to the attention of those concerned.

 

Diagrams illustrate anomaly.

We're 4 months further, any idea when we can expect an update?

I had this problem with the stock YBCG in AU Australia v2 where the ILS and identifier for rwy14 were wrong. I used ADE and fixed it. Here is the corrected .bgl. I don't own the paid version.
