Great explanation! If you’re not a pilot, Kip, you should be. You explain this stuff better than I ever could, and I’m a retired airline pilot. 😁

I can't describe how perfect this video is for a guy who is trying to make sense of it all. So beautifully explained and articulated, with visuals to match. You zoom in and explain why you're doing what you're doing and it's just amazing man. Thank you, you truly are a great creator and instructor. Glad I came across this channel.

Please become a CFI. We need more people that are good at explaining things out there in the sky.

Just getting into X-Plane and was struggling to get the ILS to control the altitude but your explanation made it clear you have to HIT or cross through the glide slope. The APR mode wont take you TO the glide slope. So thanks for helping get my head around that small detail.

I've watched a lot of IFR tutorials to help me perform ILS approaches and this is without doubt the best. It covers everything I needed to know. I especially liked the explanation of how to read the approach plates. Thankyou Kip.

Many thanks... this has to be the best ILS tutorial (xplane/msfs) i've seen...

Brother, I kid you not I must have watched 50 different videos trying to get this down. I just successfully landed my first ILS flight. Thank you so much. The way you explained and also showed what the numbers on the flight card represent was fantastic. Thank you!! 👊🏻

God, I cannot get over how good you are at explaining these things! Some tutorials are drawn out and hard to follow, but you are incredibly precise and clear - thank you!

hahah I loved that rough landing after the whole perfect video 😂

I've flown that approach dozens of times. The realism is just shocking. So good.

Kip, I wish you make ground school videos for my PPL and coming up IFR ratings, maybe even all the ground school videos(multi, commercial, ETC). Your videos are really well made. They are very well explained in detail step by step and well-made visuals. Thanks for making these videos, even though it's for Flight Sim it's still definitely can be applied to real-world aviation. You are really helping me out. Keep the videos coming!

Kip, I'm so thrilled to have 'discovered' your fantastic tutorials. I have to say your ability to explain and describe some fairly complicated stuff is absolutely head and shoulders above most other KZfaq tutorials. Great job Kip - you're always my first stop for guidance on getting to grips with the finer points of my hobby - THANK YOU!

As a non pilot you know more than 90% of pilots. GREAT JOB! More teaching videos please, your explanations are amazing. I hope to learn the sim better so someday I can fly with your groups. Looks fun I just need more sim knowledge.

This was exactly what I’ve been looking for. You left no stone unturned. Perfect how to. Going to hop on later with xplane and practice this exact plan. Ty so much!!!

So far, the best video I have seen on the subject -- which gave me the initial knowledge to actually start and do an IFR / ILS for the first time. Thank you very much.

This was perfect. Did it this morning and worked like a charm.

I agree with the other posters. Kip has simplified the use of Garmin on MSFS for me. Well done

Thank you for your work of making this tutorials, mate, your production quality deserves much more subs

best explanation to a non-pilot/newbie I've seen yet - well done !!

Awesome tutorial, had to go missed when i realized i didnt have ils tuned on both but tried again and boy was it a sweet landing :) thanks!

I am a new PPl pilot and this explanation is relly help me, thanks)!

Excellent! Others do too much too fast. You are a very good instructor. Thx!

O. M. G. This video was beyond helpful by far the best video for ILS stuff this helped me so much!!

Thank you for a very clear and paced tutorial . You seem to have a real talent for explaining in an accurate and understandable manner. Thank you so much, I am definitely subscribed.

Thanks for the help, Kip. I was haviing all kinds of trouble with the ILS approach. 😁I was about ready to give up, that is until I found your training. Much appreciated.

This is the video that made this click for me finally! Thank you. I am now frequently making ILS landings all over the world!

Great job, thinking of starting IFR certificate. Auto pilot makes it a lot easier . Thanks for your tutoring

Thanks for this, I got my instrument rating in G1000 airplanes and now I'm flying six pack with a 530. You are very helpful for staying proficient.

Fantastic tutorials. I keep binge watching them. Thanks a lot !

The very best tutorial. Thank you Kip

Thanks a lot for posting this! Definitely the clearest explanation of an approach plate I've found on youtube.

Maan! This is a great video! Unfortunately my english is not very good but I understood you very well! And I finally got it, how it works! Thanks man! I appreciate it!

Thanks for the tutorial! Although flying for a long time didn’t know that you can switch baro to InHg by holding the baro button. Learn always something new 👍🏻

Another Kip classic ... Thank you!

Amazing tutorial, you are a great instructor!

That's exactly what I'm been looking for. thanks a lot!

Many thanks and really appreciated.....3 great videos on autopilot, flight planning and ILS approach that actually works exactly like it should do on Xbox series x. Great dialogue and precision which is highly recommended.

Great series of instructional videos! This one in particular was well explained and unlike a lot of 'how to fly ILS' vids I have tried to wrap my head around, easy to follow. I will admit to a couple of crash and burns before getting the hang of it, however. Many thanks and please continue providing this very useful information - which is of particular interest and importance to us new to the world of flight simulators.

Thanks Dude.... Just picked up the realsimgear GNS 530 and these vids help a ton.... Thank You 👍🏼

This tutorial is AWESOME!!! Clear like a mountain river! Thanks pal!!

Really enjoyed this video, clear concise and to the point! Keep them coming. Suddenly flight sim just became a lot more technical, had to re learn lots of procedures.Wished they would have integrated more stuff from the older version. Although still great game!

You might be working on your landings, but I would give my left arm to have half of the knowledge you have, regarding all the different procedures involved in a flight such as this. Thank you for your time.

Your videos are great! Thank you so much. I enjoy much more as a sim pilot in MSFS2020 than before thanks to your videos.

That was lovely. Just one thing on the ILS instrument: I believe the center ball represents the airplane, that's why you need to turn left if the vertical bar is on the left. You said it but I just feel the ball = airplane part allows me to visualize what the instrument actually means

Absolute best instructor clear and precise and easy to understand !0+ Thanks

outstanding - that was a great video. would have loved to see it in totally obscured clouds down to 300 ft. you are so awesome !!! I'm just now learning the 430 for real and this helps so much. I'll be practicing this all weekend around the DFW area.

Clear, useful, and in clear english for strangers. Thanks a lot. Suscribed and watching other videos.

Hi mate...GREAT TUTORIAL...very well and understandable done....i’ve to use garmin 430 in TRANSALL C160 (great airplane😀) and i understood a lot from you. THANK YOU!!👍👍

I'm very impressed by this video (will view some more:). Your explanation is build up perfectly, to-the-point, paced just right, with a very pleasant voice. It's like a speed course into these matters, with a logical, sequential approach, without being overwhelmed with info or non-relation remarks. Amazing value! (My background. I'm playing MSFS2020 in VR. Used to just fly around, but have now (Jan 2023) embarked on an epic VR journey CapeTown-NorthPole in a Beechcraft G58 Baron ... I felt the need to learn the instruments, starting with the AP because it's a long journey and I need the/some automation for endurance. So from learning some basic AP, I gradually want to learn more. Hence e.g. the ILS. I found your video. And well ... impressive. I feel I need no more than your explantions. Thanks👍❤)

Great video. Seriously thank you! I was finally able to get my plane to follow the glide slope down to the runway!! Yeah! … and with the G1000!

Omg dude! I am so happy I found your channel. I am learning so much from your perfect explanations. Thank you very much!

One of the most useful videos for MSFS 2020, thanks

Very well explained, calm and logical. Thank you very much for this tutorial video :)

Thank you for taking time to make this instructional video. It's super helpful to me.

thanks a lot, very structured and informative. Even if english is not my native langage. I like to use the 530 cause of his "vintage" look in my planes, and your video helped me a lot.

you got the best guidance for this cessna. thank you i learned so much. now enjoyed my flight sim

Love that! I am very glad at the end you showed how to enter it manually. I am still learning the GPS system so I am never sure if I should just load it, or activate it, etc. Just got this flight sim and I haven't even used it to just goof off yet, it has been all business mostly...ha! You are a big help!

Hey I just got the PMDG DC-6 and just wanted to say your video was really helpful for it since it uses the same GPS. Thanks very much!!

Excellent explanation, and very clear! I'm refreshing my skills again... and this helps greatly! Cheers. From UK!

Really well explained and by that you made this sound very easy. This was actually an extremely good base for future exercises. Thank you.

It’s so well explained, so I’m back to watch the video again :)

Just what I was looking for. Great video! Thanks for taking the time to make these!

An ILS vs RNAV landing would be interesting, if you’ve got time for making such a tutorial :)

Perfect video showing everything. Thanks

Огромное спасибо! Один из лучших гайдов

Excellent and very well explained.

That landing was great lol!

Just a tiny suggestion for sim pilots, planning to transition full scale aviation. Wait till the White Arc on the Airspeed indicator before lowering flaps. In real life, deploying flaps outside of the white arc could stress the airframe unnecessarily.

Grate I found this video and your other video so helpful. Thank you

This video was super cool and very informative. Thank you very much. looking forward for more videos from you :)

Great tutorial video!!! I’ve been trying to learn this topic so with your explanation I can see now it’s more easy than what I thought. Getting into the cockpit now to practice. Have a great MSFS day!!!! Will let you know how I did LOL

Excellent tutorial, Thanks! 🙂

Another really useful and concise video. Keep ‘em coming!

Just followed this tutorial and got given a go around. Smh. Thanks :D

Thank you. I didn’t know I had to hit CDI once on the approach and I could not figure out wh6 my p,and flew a perfect heading at 3000ft never catching the glide slope.

Thank you Kip, great tutorial,go ahead do more videos👏👍

Thanks for the vids Kip, subbed, really easy to follow and comprehend. Please keep it up.

Excellent video, thanks for your time and input!!!

Great Video!! Easy to understand! Hope you will be uploading more video, like 747/a320 tutorial

Great tutorial, my only add would be a brief description of Decision Altitude/Height and why it's part of the approach.

brilliant video great detailed info just found your youtube channel.

Watched video a 2nd time and made some notes :) Will fly this route soon. Would be cool, if you could the same route with different planes, as using various models of Garmin, to see how it's done and where the difference is. Hope you have some NDB navigation videos as well. Thanks for sharing !

Great video thank you for posting this!! I love how well you explain how to do these! I'm hoping you have a video on RNAV approaches, so I'll be watching all your videos! Liked and subscribed!!

Fantastic video and series. Keep it up! One thing; you might want to check your explanation of the two different directional radios (one is for horizontal guidance, and the other is for vertical guidance) and the shaded arrow.

Another awesome presentation! Thanks so much.

outstanding, thank you!

Excellent video... Thanks.

Incredibly detailed video and information. Thanks for your video :)

Great video, clear and concise. Thank you !!

Awesome video with great instructions. I can’t wait to try this out for myself!! Subscribed!!

Kip, So appreciate your ability to explain all things MSFS. It is a pleasure to watch your videos and as a novice simmer it really helps me. I’ obviously missing something in flight planning on a Cessna 172 Skyhawk. I don’t understand how to dial in the airport codes. I see the fp page but I am unable to program a plan. As I see it you are using a dial button t

Very clear explanation, excellent.

Very useful video, nicely presented. Many thanks.

Hi Kip. Love your videos! Thank you for sharing your knowledge with the community. Here is to hoping you will keep releasing more in the future :-) I tried flying this route in a 152 navigating with just radios. I don’t understand how ppl are able (were able?) to do it. I wouldn’t say I could actually fly it, only semi worked with pause for tuning radios and VFR map for seeing how far off I was at any given time. I think I understand how to “catch” these points in space by tuning two intersecting frequencies on two separate readios, and observing one or both (at JOGIT) of the needles “crossing over” when I pass the intersection. I also think I accurately located JOGIT, LUCIG, and GUNEY using the sectional chart and approach plate: JOGIT - intersection of SLI radial 076 “to” (freq 115.7) and POM radial 164 ”from” (freq 110.4) MIDDS - intersection of SLI radial 120 “from” (freq 115.7) and SXC radial 039 “from” (freq 111.4) LUCIG - intersection of I-LGB localizer runway 30 (freq 110.3) and ELB radial 261 “from” (freq 117.2) GUNEY - intersection of I-LGB localizer runway 30 (freq 110.3) and SLI radial 196 “from” (freq 115.7) I could NOT find the MIDDS intersection (if that is the right term) on the sectional chart at SkyVector. Instead I found it by searching the Internet (on an old Jeppsen SimChart). Any case - fun stuff… I think I need to start learning to “fly” with GPS! It’s too much with the radios and I will never get there :-o

Nice landing, Kip it up!

So nice i did fall over your instruction vid.

incredible

Very good video! Thanks for the help!!

1st notch of flaps entered "1 Dot Above" glidescope.

Excellent
