ISSUE DESCRIPTION
Description of the issue:
The approach button on the Pilatus PC-12 does not work. I am in career mode and have tried flying the PC-12 with VFR straight landings and when I pass the first approach marker I usually press the APR button as in the G1000 but on the PC-12 this doesn’t do anything and turns off the NAV instead. Have tried it before and after the marker and much closer to the runway with no luck. CDI also switches to LOC instead. This really is needed for those flights where you’re landing in a field or at night. I have loaded in the flight plan from the EFB and removed the discontinuity when setting up the approach. VNAV calculates the top of descent and descends as expected. Is there a known bug or issue at the moment, it did work briefly last year but seems to have broken again.
