===== My First ILS Approach =====

You are a beginner pilot just getting familiar with Aerofly FS 2. You made some VFR flights and tried some landings. **Note** - VFR = Visual Flight Rules; pilot operates aircraft under visual conditions.  
 
Now let’s do the next step and try an ILS approach. **Note** - ILS = Instrument Landing System. 

In this more complex tutorial we gather some preflight information, use both the location and navigation maps, adjust aircraft instruments, and finally do a manual approach assisted by ILS. **Note** - In this tutorial you will land without the assistance of autopilot. 

==== Preflight Preparation ====

For this tutorial we will be flying into San Francisco International Airport (KSFO), and want to approach runway 19L.Open the site [[http://airnav.com/airports/]] and search for San Francisco, SFO, or KSFO. **Note** -  KSFO is the ICAO code of the airport, also shown in Aerofly FS 2.

The KSFO page tells you everything that you need to know about the airport.
