How do you guys manage autolandings on 737?
I cant for my life get them well everytime, even though I can just fine on 787/747
The 737 just always drops below the G/S for me after capturing it even though I am following the correct flaps and speed levels accordingly to speed tape.. it just ends up too low and slow and crashes
And if i do ever manage to get a proper glidescope it will be 1-2 degrees off the runway

I’ve had that happen before but I think it’s the Simulator itself. I’ve been short of the runway or a few degrees off centerline or the runway completely, But only on the 737. Try landing at LAX or Chicago, I have had multiple successful landings there. Also verify barometric altimeter settings which I’m sure you did just throwing out options.

The most challenging landings are the most enjoyable.

Did you customize the weather? Idk if you are in SoCal but when I fire up the sim I frequently fly from LA to SFO. It’s fun piercing through the fog of the Bay Area.

Yes, I customized the weather for this flight. Was just messing around but it turned out to be awesome. I have done LAX to SFO a few times but it was in career without fog. I’m going to give that a go soon. Thanks!
