    Amazing aircraft. Love the feel and the look of this aircraft.
    Few things I have noticed though getting to know this amazing aircraft.

    1- Localizer capture not aggressive enough with the autopilot engaged. Loc capture occurs, but the aircraft have a tendency to shallow out the intercept after LOC capture and not fully lock inn on the localizer. Leaving a half scale deflection until 4-5 mile final.
    This is mainly an issue when flying on Vatsim to an airport with parallel runways. ATC might query if you are aligned with the correct runway.
    2-Glide slope tracking with autopilot. Same issue, tracking is not aggressive enough. Very often I see the aircraft deviate 1/2-1 dot below the glide slope. It should lock into the GS and stay glued there provided speed and configuration is correct and maintained.
    3- Flight Director Vertical track bar. Often very irratic movements. Fluctuating left and right. Especially during Rnav departures. Seems to stabilize bit more in the climb/cruse/descent phase.

      'not aggressive enough'
      Perhaps this is the real life behavior of this 40y old ac?
