No matter what plane I’m in, ILS 13L points the needle 180 degrees the other way when I hit LOc/APRCH, localizer tuned to 111.5. I’ve noticed this on other runways randomly but I can’t remember off the top of my head. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?
@Novascotia64
I did a quick ILS to 13L at KJFK just now and it’s working fine in a completely stock D-930.
However, one thing I did notice is that the ILS frequency for both 13L and 31R is the same frequency (111.5). So depending on where you’re located in relation to the airport/runway, you might be actually picking up the ILS for runway 31R, which would give you the indications of pointing the wrong way.
If you’re northwest of the airport, roughly lined up with runway 13L, it should catch the “right” 111.5 freq. If you’re far enough NE/E/SE of the airport, it’s probably catching the “wrong” 111.5 freq (i.e. the one for runway 31R).

Thanks for the reply,
Are you pre planning in the world map at all or just dropping in the world?

For this test flight I started at a nearby “custom departure point” from the world map just to set up for an ILS into 13L. The world map is where I saw they were using the same freqs for 13L and 31R.
There are some other airports in the sim that also share the same ILS freqs at opposite ends of the runway.
