Same 😂

I’m really pleased this has helped you! More to come, thanks for watching and commenting!

I'm going to have to watch this a couple more times I think. I pretty much stick to simple aircraft, but the occasional airliner would be good and whiule I can find "a way" with the auto-pilot for cruise purposes its not good - and ILS and the approach is something I really struggle to put together. This seems clear;y explained, its a case of getting all the steps and settings in place in my head.

@@320SimPilot Also a big THANK YOU from me. Your videos are great for a flight enthusiast and simulatir newbie like me :)

Same here! This video is the best!

Me too. Fantastic :) thanks very much

He has a few videos going through system failures in an A321 in X-Plane. Some of the mechanics may be slightly different behind the sim, but he focuses more on general practice rather than anything sim-specific.

Not much point atm in flight simulator as all the emergency controls (e.g. emergency landing gear release, fire extinguishers, emergency hydraulics etc) are inoperative.

No need to do emergencies, so many bugs in the the sim that one could happen at anytime!

Whats wrong with average gamers playing flight sim?

@@Itreallywasnt Nothing whatsoever! I probably wasn't as clear as I should've been - what I meant by that comment was it's nice to see an actual pilot, rated for this specific type of aircraft, giving tutorials on certain aspects of flying it. The 'average gamer' bit was referring to those who care very little and/or aren't very knowledgeable with regards to aviation who are suddenly "interested" in planes just because a pretty game has come out which happens to have planes in it. They'll just go and Google how to (for example) fly an ILS approach, missing out potentially important bits, then make a vague tutorial that spreads misinformation on how to fly the procedure. As you learn in flight school, types rating courses etc there's a right and a wrong way to do things. This channel teaches the right way, but 9 times out of 10 the 'average gamer' tutorial won't. Please don't take this as a rant against gamers suddenly being interested in a flight simulator; I'm so glad this sim has captured the interests and imagination of the wider gaming community. The point is that it's nice to hear the proper procedures explained by a real world, type rated pilot. Apologies for any confusion!

MXG plays -for anyone seriously interested in this hobby, having a real pilot willing to provide valuable information to us is a luxury.. No average gamer can do that.

@mxg plays you knew what he meant.

I am a professional pilot and I make tutorials also. Some of the gamers teaching an ILS approach makes me cringe (especially when they call them ILS Landings) but some of them a great job for not being pilots.

I appreciate that a lot Andrew! Thanks for watching and taking the time to give your thoughts. I will consider those topics for future videos absolutely!

@@320SimPilot Could you maybe go through the startup procedures to takeoff? The game is lacking the checklists and I really like starting at the gate with a cold engine, then taxi to runway to takeoff.

@@giannidisumma2948 Hi Gianni, sorry, I know im not 320 Sim Pilot answering your question, there is a checklist for startup from cold right through to after the engines have started, it's quite good actually, click on each procedure and then the little eye symbol and it takes you to the button position and shows it flashing, you can complete each check or have the game finish the checks for you.

@@coffeeguy6673 the flybywire mod has all the checklists included in the mod now :)

i relate too much to the "stressing and trying to catch up to everything before final" ahahahaha

You are welcome Cpt!

You are very welcome, thanks for watching and commenting!

Thank you Chris! Really pleased you enjoy it.

I agree that they need people like this guy to help create real systems within the aircraft! :)

@@ideal199 Especially because they said they had real pilots to recreate the aircraft's systems. But I do not think so after trying it. :(

Its a work in progress and they are working on these things with real pilots. lots of things that aren't finished. If they waited till it was perfect, it would never have been released. At least we can play.

@@tedburg6042 See but this is the problem. They sell it as a finished product so people expect one. It is not flagged as WIP or something and this is not today's standards.

@@tedburg6042 At least we can pay.

Loves to randomly forget about alt hold...

besides looking good the "sim" is crap

@@nicowaitforitstinson1557 The actual physics feel pretty food! Better than FSX/P3D at least. Most of the older sims worked on a lookup table based on the conditions at a single point on the aircraft. FS2020 is a lot more detailed in that department. You need to keep in mind it released less than a week ago, it's not had a single update yet. :)

@@nicowaitforitstinson1557 Well, that might be a bit extreme.

@@VoxelLoop It's been so called 'alpha' an 'beta' tested to death for 6 months or more.

Yes it has come a long way since I made this video, glad it was still useful for you! Thanks for watching Justin.

Same!

Hi Toni. The Captain has tutorials in his back catalogue from walk round, through cold and dark, and all the way to landing and shut down. They are in X-Plane 11 using the payware ToLiss A321 which has most of the systems from the real aircraft modelled. They're all well worth watching. There are also his past live stream full flights in there too. 👍

go slower maybe and show full flight from take off , hell noob here :)

Hi, thanks for your comment! Sadly in MSFS2020 we cannot do replays yet so there is no way to do this. I hope we can soon!

On the RAD NAV page you can type the ILS frequency in to the ILS box.

Glad it helped!

U multiply your altitude * 3 ... so for FL350 u would want to start your descent around 105nm from the airport ... if u have strong headwind then u can reduce distance by 5-10 nm .... strong tailwind increase distance by 5-10 nm

@@solonik123 in that case what height speed and airspeed should I set? Or just changing alt?

maybe your speed is in the red airspeed area and A.FLOOR turns on so you cannot stall the aircraft

@@lordawid thanks for that, I already assumed it has to something in that direction, but saying out loud on what to focus on really helped now, the plane is going down when i want it to

You press the F-PLN button, select the landing airport and then select your approach. It's pretty straight forward.

I'd love to see a full vid explaining how to input data into the FMC.

@@brucerodrigues1 thanks! FMS isnt particularly intuitive for amateurs but that seems to work

@@udayrulz1 It isn't, but for setting up an approach from what I just said it is, the only part that can be tricky is figuring out your transition point if you wish to have one. The simulator still doesn't have the complete working of the MCDU. It'll be interesting to see if the developers do more because that'll help pilots enjoy it more. But at the same time it'll really complicate things for beginners. I still don't know if the flight control law protections have been put in and if the degradations with failure are there too. That'll be another interesting feature to add to the simulator.

"Sir, this is an Applebee's."

The same thing hapens to me and i cant for the life of me figure this out. Let me know if you figure it out!

@@zanster8336 well as of right now, I just ignore the ATC when they tell me to ascend... it's not like they'll cancel your ifr, it's just a bit annoying... so I basically stick to the altitudes in my fms, but since they can be weird too I often start descending when it looks right on my vfr-map (sometimes the flightplan suggests staying at travelling altitude right until the end and then it wants me to do some sort of dive-bomb to the ILS entrypoint)

@@sneakprev1984 yeah ben ignoring it but the constant jammering about it is anoying over time. I also keep getting told to climb to 15000ft when i actualy am flying at 15000ft so either i'm messing things up or there is a bugg or somthing.

@@zanster8336 That could be a "transition altitude" thing. Above "transition altitude" you should set your altimeter to standard pressure (29.92"). If you are still using the local pressure setting, your altitude could be significantly off of what ATC is expecting from you. Transition altitude in Australia is 10,000ft, but I believe it is 18,000ft in America.

Theres so.much wrong with it but since its freeware i cant bother to mention

It seems bad, very high aoa just to get the plane level during cruise altitude it seems

If PIA pilots watched this video, they'd improve their technique.

flightdeck2sim has plenty of tutorials on non-airliner stuff and how to use all the instruments etc.

@@ddha0000 Granted but this is still no excuse for documenting their own product - for instance, the world map actually does have the ILS frequencies on it - but they're filtered out by default. I shouldn't need to watch video after video to find this stuff out.

Fantastic, glad to hear they have helped Jarrod! Thanks for watching!

Thank you M M, you are very welcome.

Hi Joe, very addictive this sim isnt it ? That yearning to be able to fly like a professional pilot or as near as is possible. I have to be honest, I've watched a few of these tutorials and find it a little bit baffling, so much information you need to be aware of and when to do certain inputs. Then again, I'm sure pilot training in real life isn't just a few hours lol !! I'm inpatient and want to be an expert like, NOW !! hehe....cheers, Daz
