Why I lost AUTOLAND configuration?
-
Hey,
Can someone tell me from this clip why I lost the AUTOLAND configuration? Maybe too much wind?
I'm not sure to understand. -
In that instance, I believe AUTOLAND disengaged as the aircraft drifted by more than one dot on the glideslope indicator. The amber NO AUTO LAND annunciator on the left side of the main instrument panel indicates that AUTOLAND is not available.
Tricky to know for certain without seeing the whole approach, knowing the approach speeds, etc. But I suspect that may have been caused by the winds. It looks like the wind was almost a straight headwind of 24 knots, and the RJs headwind limit for ILS landings is 25 knots, so quite close to the limit. The winds also seem to be bumping the aircraft around quite a lot, which makes me curious as to what you have your "TURBULENCE" setting set to in MSFS? We typically recommend setting that to LOW based on feedback we have received from pilots on our testing teams.
