I had a similar problem with my HSI, my nav receiver went through the RNAV then to
the HSI, my avionics shop told me the rnav was bad, they removed it and problem
solved.

I'm just starting to work on my Instrument Rating and yesterday when doing an
ILS approach I was keeping the localizer centered and my instructor told me to
look up about a mile out. We were maybe 200 yards off the centerline. Next
one we stayed on the centerline (visually) and the needle was 1/2 deflection.

Any thoughts about what to do? It seemed like a practice ILS I did at another
airport didn't do this a couple of weeks ago. Could it be this one facility
(BHM)? Do I need an avionics shop to look at it?

I'm new at this so I'm not really sure what step to take next. Any help will
be appreciated.
