You could (just use the standard hot-keys for the APP mode) but it hasn't been designed or tested to do it. We are using the standard A/P code in FSX, which I'm not sure is able to cope with the specific approach beaviors of a jet fighter, perhaps it will work in good weather on a real runway, but probably not in bad weather and certainly not on a carrier.

Can you assist with Tacan procedures. I can navigate using Vortac by enterring the channel and the HSI needle points to the station just like a RMI with a vor, but when I tune a tacan like nkx at miramar the station id comes up with dme range but the needle always points north south, the same with other pure tacan stations like north island. Am I doing something wrong or do the tacans not have the radials set in the program.

virtuali:
The TACAN function for the Acceleration F/A-18 is not a complete simulation of the Tacan system, that (when used on a military airplane) allows for radial informations. The Tacan system we have is just a convenience that will allow to tune "by channel" instead of "by frequency", but the underlining system is still the standard FSX so, it assumes all airplanes use a civilian receiver so, TACAN works as DME only, without radials.

Hi everyone. I was wondering how can i set the altitude value?

It has just been explained, a couple of messages above, at Reply #20
