4. At the point specified to begin the
procedure turn inbound, select 103°
with the heading bug for a 180° turn
toward the localizer front course. The
deviation bar shows pictorially the
course you are to intercept. Depress
the APR pushbutton to arm the
Approach mode. Automatic capture
will occur to direct the aircraft on the
localizer inbound.

5. The autopilot is following the flight
director commands which maintain
localizer centerline tracking. Once
Approach Coupled, Glideslope is
automatically armed. The point of
glideslope capture is based on the
glideslope deviation and the rate of
change of glideslope deviation. Both
pitch and roll are commanded by the
flight director to maintain glideslope
and localizer track.

6. Throughout the approach proce-
dure, the airspeed must be controlled
by the pilot via the collective.

Note: The KFC 500 Autopilot/Flight
Director will only maintain one pitch
mode at a time: Pitch Attitude Hold,
Altitude Hold, Vertical Speed Hold,
Go Around, Indicated Airspeed Hold,
or Glideslope. Airspeed or vertical
rate must be maintained by the pilot
via the collective.
