I dont think these shots are as crisp as usual but I have toned down some settings for things you may not really need when flying at FL350...I went roughly with some settings from a guy at Aerosoft and found my VAS just got to 3gig at final approach to Cardiff, really pleased with that.....I have a  set up saved for GA with it all turned back up as per Bretts pointer the other week....

cheers Guys, nice to throw in the odd Bus flight inbetween all the AH2 smaller stuff...seem to be getting the hang of this one now, but I am going to try a flight with no ILS next, may end in tears.....

Ha...i'm just the reverse. I am far more stressed out when I am trying to use the ILS than hand flying. I autopilot big tubes to destinations, use heading adjust to get roughly on line with the ILS arrow, and then shut it all off and fly it to the ground. Autothrottles help somewhat, unless I forget to shut it off right before touchdown. :D

Same for me, I don't fly tubes but I often use ILS approaches on IFR flights. I usually align with the ILS and start descent with the autopilot, then shut it all off around 3 nm away and finish hand flying.
