LOWI ILS for 26

[Ouistiti06]

Hi, this airport is very nice, but the ILS is missing for runway 26. Please this is important for airliners.

Thank you for inclusion in the next update

LOWI has no ILS. Never had one.

I think the best you can hope for is LOC DME.....

However apxp.info gives 111.10 for the ILS of the 26

apxp.info is just for XP. IRL the approach to rwy 26 at LOWI is an offset localizer approach with glideslope guidance. If the localizer was not offset it would run straight into a mountain about 17 NM east of the runway threshold.

AFAIK The localizer is offset by 5 degrees to the runway heading, so I don't know why it is labeled as a LOC, because If the offset angle is greater than three degrees, a facility is classified as a localizer-type directional aid (LDA).

Was now curious by myself and did a brief test flight. The localizer and the glideslope are there and you can tune them with 111.10. The localizer is even offset. So all good.

Thank you WOLKO,  I tried, but the plane did not detect the frequency, that's why I asked the question.

Hello,

the next question is which aircraft?

[Ouistiti06]

Hello, it was the Daher TBM 930, with which I made other perfectly detected ILS approaches.

Hello,

I don't pretend to know much about ILS but it looks to me as if this Cessna is seeing it.

 

[Ouistiti06]

Hello, It's my fault, I checked and left the frequency on standby. It is the lack of knowledge of these new planes.
Sorry for bothering you, and thank you for all your answers.
Cordial greetings
