Today i thought id try the East Coast USA Tour.
I start the tour and the plane just fly’s in a straight line, it’s not following the flight path / waypoints for the tour, any ideas why this could be happening, am i missing something?
Apprecaite any help with this.

With the autopilot on you need to manually change the heading at each waypoint, or set GPS for automatic flight. Cheers.

Yup, just figured this out… Thanks again.

You should not feel silly because it is not unreasonable to have expected them to give us the waypoints so we could program an automatic flightplan, or for them simply to say set autopilot to GPS for automatic flight. Cheers.

That’s strange. I flew the tour yesterday with the autopilot in nav mode and it followed the entire route perfectly.

Did the tour tonight, autopilot worked very well. Only problem was the ils was offset to the right of the runway.
If you can in Rwy 19, it does not have ILS, at least what I could see on airnav.com
Correction, it does, LDA approach and it is noted as being offset
