The Aircraft and Avionics Update 2 (AAU2) by Working Title to the default Boeing 747 in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 brings this aircraft closer to a study level/immersion experience. We program the Flight Management System (FMS) with the essential data to experience a completely automated flight with LNAV and VNAV execution from departure to touchdown using the autoland system. This 397 nm flight departs from Toronto (CYYZ) RWY 05 and arrives in Boston (KBOS) RWY 22L. The 747 follows the flight plan to perfection.
NOTE - Some aspects of the data entry into the FMS have been omitted or changed from real world protocol to minimize the details/video length and concentrate on the basic understanding for an autopilot flight in the 747.
Please consider a subscription if you enjoyed this video. Blue skies to all pilots!

I had totally stopped flying both the Boeing 747 and the 787 since they made that update. I'm used to just picking out my departure and destination from the world map. Setting altitude, vertical speed and target destination. Once I manually fly it to 10000ft, I activate LNAV and it flies the route. That's all I wanted. Since the update the KZfaq instructors want you to do a cold start, which I've never wanted to do. Your presentation sequence was perfect, and following your steps I can fly them again. Thank you! I still like the old GPS way of doing it, but at least your way I can figure out.

@TheLifetraveler1 11 ай бұрын

@@TheFlightLevel Thank you for your help. With your foundation, I found I can make it even easier, without manually inputting the waypoints between departure and arrival airport. I start with the world map, then use low or high altitude routing (vs my favorite which was GPS), which inserts the waypoints for me. Then as you showed I go through the legs, remove the discontinuities, hit EXEC. I set the altitude and vertical speed targets. I activate LNAV and Vnav before take off. Once I'm in the air, I click on autopilot, and the plane navigates from there. I would not have figured it out had you not at least given us steps without going through all of the startup stuff. Thanks.

Hey just wondering, I already know the basics but like if I’m flying from say Usa to Europe and while setting up the fmc in Europe I select rwy 09 In London for when I arrive but fast forward 6 Hours and the winds change, am I able go change to Rwy 27 while in the air and delete 09?

Also, does AUTOLAND appear automatically - once you the LOC and GS has been armed? Cos I did this and I never had AUTOLAND it said NO AUTOLAND. I do set my flights and take off and approaches on the WORLD MAP - does that have something to do with it?

@TheFlightLevel 11 ай бұрын

Not all ILS systems incorporate the autoland capabilities. Setting your departure and arrival on the world map would not affect this feature. Blue skies!

Hi.. how do you get the autoland land3 to activate on the pfd? Does it come automatically after ils interception or do we have to switch some button. I fly ils approaches as shown here but disengage the autopilot near runway threshold and land manually. Interested in knowing how to autoland and flare automatically.

@TheFlightLevel 11 ай бұрын

The autoland is dependent on the ILS. Not all ILS approaches incorporate the degree of precision and vertical guidance required for the autoland. Yes, the autoland comes on automatically. The aircraft must also have the required onboard navigation equipment to use the autoland system.

@arunr5756 11 ай бұрын

Yes I just figured that out too. Did a perfect autoland approach. Used ils and approach mode. I was playing the asobo default 747 8i. Your video was very insightful in learning process. Will watch out for more. Subscribing :)

So today I exactly did the same flight and followed every point from populating FMS to landing at Boston.I do not know what I did wrong but after take off and putting on the Auto Pilot the aircraft did not follow the flight plan and I had to interfere manually 18:12 to change the heading towards Kirex.Thereafter it followed the Flight Plan but then closer to destination did not intercept the localiser or the glide scope. l did land but after taking manual control at FL4000.Maybe I will go over it again and see if I have erred at some point.

@TheFlightLevel 11 ай бұрын

Please report back when you try the flight again. I suspect you did not turn on the AP soon enough and were at the wrong height when engaging the approach. Good luck!

@xjay1234 11 ай бұрын

When I press APPROACH button on the panel it sometimes will not intercept the glidepath (RNAV).
