Brief description of the issue:

If you keep the plane on the glide path for the RNAV approach to TNCM Runway 10, it will bring you in far too low.

Detailed steps to reproduce the issue encountered:

Load the RNAV approach to Runway 10 at TNCM and have autopilot follow the glide path. I took off from a nearby airport and reached a cruise altitude of FL380. Then I used VNAV to manage the descent. Once close enough, I engaged the approach button. Following the glide path down crashed me into the fence.

PC specs and/or peripheral set up if relevant:

I use only keyboard, mouse, and controller

I think the Decision Height for TNCM is 700 feet. I think you are supposed to disconnect the autopilot at that point and finish the landing manually.

Approach will only work if there is an ILS.
TNCM does not have one.

The RNAV you selected is not even an RNP or AR-type approach, because I’ve flown it in the 930 multiple times, and the G3000 in that plane isn’t certified to fly those approaches, and won’t even show them as available to use.
So given that it’s not even a “high-precision” (relatively speaking) RNAV, I’m not surprised the end result if you try to fly it all the way to the ground isn’t great!
