I see the problem. Needs more top rudder, on the bottom side.

Is this the new MD88 avionics, that are supposed to replace the current version, which replaced the previous version on American's jets which replaced the DC-9's? If so, how did you ever find enough control authority to invert the thing ... oh nevermind, the rudder. Another couple of complete cockpit upgrades and we'll probably have the bugs ironed out so you have navigational accuracy better than 3 miles and 2,500 feet. Autoland will probably still take you off in the weeds if a beer truck drives within half a zip code of the localizer antenna.
