• Then push NAV to arm the capture (When you are close to the route it will engage FMS lateral steering and follow the route.)
• There is no VNAV climb installed in our King air, so climb with PITCH, VS or FLC.(Descent with VS, FLC or VNAV)
• Then change source to NAV1 or NAV2 (depending on where you entered the ILS frequency) and then push APPR to fly the approach.
• You can also leave it in FMS source and push approach but that will give you an non precision approach.
