There is an easy fix to this problem; just imagine that atc has cleared you for the visual approach.
Much more entertaining than a standard ILS.

It says your flight time was 2hrs 32min; are you sure it was on the whole night?
In aerofly with ldg flap 15 a vref of 122kts works reasonably well, with a final approach speed of 135kts.
Runway numbers change sometimes so this is probably just due to aerofly’s very old data.
If you are gliding then it’s a good idea to set QFE since you always want to know how high you are above the ground.
It is not implemented yet, but it’s a good opportunity to practice raw data holding:)
You can fly manually or with HDG and only engage LNAV once you have passed the troublesome section, but make sure that the TO waypoint (in white) is the one that you want to fly to first.
With the outdated AIRAC that aerofly uses, I wouldn’t expect Simbrief or Navigraph integration anytime soon. I think that there is an app called FSWidgets that works similar to ForeFlight and works with aerofly, and for charts I would recommend AirMate; it’s free. (FSWidgets is £30 on App Store).
Looking at the FPV in your images it appears to be on exactly 3 degrees. I don’t see the problem here.
Trust me, most of the people who use rfs and infinite flight know about aerofly, and most of them had tried it out sometime in the past and gave it up,not because it isn't the best,but because it's the closest thing to pc simulators in terms of realism and functionality. Most of them do not even know how to start an aircraft from cold and dark, and instead of dedicating time to learning,they'd rather just stick with games where you can operate the whole aircraft by clicking on some few buttons on the screen. Majority criticise aerofly because it's too sophisticated for them, you can checkout most of the infinite flight and rfs youtubers and you'll see that most of them are inexperienced and just fly for fun
The most frequent request in infinite flight are for aircraft reworks and cockpits that are not blurry images plastered on the screen, while in aerofly we are complaining about incorrect VNAV logic on non precision approaches…
For me it does, but it is quite slight. However I do still find myself using the rudder to keep the string in the center.
I think that there are a lot more core features that should be added first before thinking about failure implementation.
Yes, but I assume that he was in clean or at least takeoff configuration…
If you don’t have a flight plan then the aircraft managed speed doesn’t have any data to follow e.g. airport restriction 250kts/10000ft. The system is probably defaulting to the speed you are currently flying. I would recommend at least having a flight plan, so the plane has some data it can use, even if you want to fly in hdg.
Also, what plane are you using? 140kts is very slow for an aircraft such as the A320 or 737.
I guess you could plot out the route on the map with custom waypoints using the actual charts for reference and then assign them altitude restrictions in the cockpit.
The DIR TO feature is not fully implemented yet, but first press the line key next to the waypoint you want to go direct to in the LEGS page, which will copy it, and insert it into the line that currently has the active waypoint in purple. However, keep in mind that in aerofly if you try to go direct to a point on the SID or STAR, it will delete the whole procedure.
Yes, the Boeing aircraft in aerofly also can’t seem to be able to compute a continuous profile to the threshold; recently I’ve just been doing non precision approaches in selected modes or visually. It’s a shame because I remember once I did the RNAV into Palm Springs in the 739 a long time ago and the plane descended beautifully all the way down.
The left engine can still be started because the APU supplies bleed air to the left side of the pneumatic manifold, and with the isolation valve closed, that air cannot reach the right side to start the right engine.
