bug with APP mode and other strange occurances. #53

Was entering ILS for 31L KJFK. Hit Loc a few miles out of the range, the 747 lined up horizontally with the runway. I watched the vertical diamond drop for altitude and once it hit the white horizontal line I hit APPR mode. The PFD switched to LOC, Altitude mode and all 3 autopilot lights came on but right away the APPR light turned off and wouldn't engage. its like altitude mode shut off and wouldn't capture the altitude changes. I have also noticed when setting VS mode the VS line on the PFD will have the purple box and will climb for a short bit but the VS purple box will go away and it will do what it wants. You have to double click VS again and set it again. I also had VNAV and LNAV doing some weird stuff and turning randomly when using active pause in MSFS2020.

Same issue with APPR mode here

When you set vs to 0 and then you hit the app knob the plane will follow the gs.

@tooldrmr2009 I believe these are all FS2020 bugs and not due to the mod. With the recent FS update, the ALT hold when intercepting the G/S bug is now fixed.
