Ils offset

[tamalien]

@carlosmax50 A very warm welcome to the forums.

There is definitely something strange going on with ILS alignment and it is an issue that has been causing discussion for many months.

With regards to the specific example given for ESGG, there are two other recent relevant threads that may be worth a look:

ESGG ILS Localizer not correctly aligned correctly after Window 10 reinstall

Give a brief description of the issue: I recently updated my computer with brand new hardware, only old part left is my GTX 1080 card and SSD’s. That made me to reinstall my Windows 10. I have MSFS and steam games installed on an separate SSD’s. Before the upgrade of the computer I had no issues with the ILS on ESGG on either of the runways. Now after brand new install of windows the ILS localizer are not correctly lined up to the runway on both runways. I thought it was ORBX ESGG related, so I…

and

ILS Localizer offset ESGG and ESMS (at least)

At least at ESGG Goteborg Landvetter and ESMS Malmo the ILS Localizers lead a course much different than the runway´s direction. Tested with FBW A32NX and Aerosoft CRJ, WIth and without scenery of ORBX. Was present also before the Nordic Update, don´t know when it appeared exactly Opened up Request #108911 Regards, Herbert

If interested and in more general terms, there is also a rather large discussion thread on offset ILS here
(while not immediately obvious there is content in that thread that may be relevant- even though ESGG is not supposed to be an offset ILS approach):

Offset (ILS / LDA) Approach Issues

Problem There are two big problems concerning ILS / LDA approaches, in short: Currently all approaches which are offset in real life are aligned with the runway course in MSFS, see my Innsbruck (LOWI) example below. Bearing pointer or RMI give bearings towards the localizer antenna, this is impossible in real life. Innsbruck Example If we take Innsbruck - LOWI airport as an example, there are two main navaids: The runway headings are 078 / 258 degrees. LOC / DME OEV is located at the air…

I don’t have any clear answers as to what is actually going on here.
I don’t think the issue is necessarily related specifically to ORBX ESGG scenery.

I will be interested to see if next week’s sim update 5 brings any changes to this whole issue and/or if ORBX will have to update their airport scenery as a result of this update.
