Im learning to fly the A320 Neo, my first airliner (been flying things like the CJ4 previously).
I’ve come across an “issue”, which Im not sure is the the A320, or something more general… perhaps about approach into Manchester.
so I was flying EGKK → EGCC/23R, using the ELVO1M STAR. into ILS23R
flight is fine, get to end of STAR at DAYNE, and turns to the approach and heads to the CF12(?) / D12 waypoint - ALL good so far.
but when AP gets to CF12 it attempts to turn LEFT to go towards FF10,
we can also see this in the PLAN view.
basically, it wants to do a sharp LEFT, then a sharp RIGHT back on to the approach path. but its simply too tight… so the right turn back onto approach misses the approach by quite a margin.
(thus losing track , and so disabling AP etc)
if we look at the IL23R approach plate/chart we can see, its say this is ‘incorrect’. (if im reading correctly 
)
what should happen is, it should cross at D12, then turn RIGHT to hdg 232 (away from runway) and then back to FF10.
so Im wondering… should the AP/ flight planner know this. is this a bug ?
is this the A320 Neo specific?
OR
is this ‘pilot error’ and what should I do ? is there a way to ‘force’ a right turn?
the only thing I can think of is turning off managed heading/nav, moving to HDG mode, and then performing the right turn using heading indicator.
note: ofc, I recognise if I was using ATC, they may vector me in differently, but Im getting used to plane, and the nav systems - so wondering what options I have
interesting side note:
if I enter the above in the Microsoft flight planner app, is has an alternative path.
basically it turns directly RIGHT on to approach, using basically intercepting between D12 and D10, which I suspect would also be a reasonable route.
though its not what the plate says, and means a shorter lead up to FF10, but should be fine.
whats your thoughts?
