Hi Dave,

When you get some time, can you check and see what I did wrong on this flight? Everything was going fine. I got LOC and GS but PF3 did not know I captured the LOC and GS and kept telling me to vector on another direction. Overall, it was an excellent flight!


Thanks Dave

Your last turn instruction from ATC was to turn right to 155... although you did so, by the time ATC were going to turn you again you'd decided to turn to about 167, consequently as far as PF3 was concerned you hadn't completed the last instruction. You really shouldn't turn unless told to do so by ATC, especially during approach vectoring. You also shouldn't turn your AP APPR 'ON' until you get 'cleared for the ILS'

...I just can't remember how it used to be!

Thanks Dave!, much appreciate for the reply.

I figured I messed up. I just needed verification and how to avoid it the next time.

Thanks again Dave!
