Learn how to fly the PMDG 737-700 for MSFS along with me in this full flight lesson with a real world 737 pilot, following Ryanair SOPs! We take you through everything you need to know to fly almost any flight realistically, from setting the aircraft up from cold and dark to shutting it down at the other end. This tutorial has something for everyone - it's simple enough for beginner flight simmers and detailed enough that even the most seasoned PMDG user will learn something new.
If you'd like to fly along as you watch, see below for the flight plan, links to the sceneries we used, and a Ryanair checklist.
There are also bookmarks to allow you to jump to a particular section, although I do recommend you watch the whole thing before jumping about so as not to miss anything.

I like when tutorials are kept as short as possible. I was searching for a 10ish min cold&dark tutorial and stayed because 2,5hrs was as short as possible to provide - as u said - around (i expect) 90% of everything you need to know for operating the PMDG 737-700/800. Calmly, professional and catchiy even tho it's been over 4 hrs with putting it step by step straight into practice while watching it...i'm sweating and tired but still so glad i found this gem of a video..cheers to u guys!

Thanks again Captain for taking the time to share your knowledge, and you Filbertflies for making it possible 👍

After giving up on the 737 for a while vs A320NX, came across this video and unlike a few videos out there, this one gets everything right. Took a good few attempts but managed to complete a cold & dark startup and full flight. You’ve greatly widened my MSFS experience!

I know I'm late to this, but I wanted to say that I appreciate the work you both put into this l, but also the fact that the guest pilot was willing to say that he didn't know something when you asked him about things he wasn't sure about. Too many people try and pretend they know things that they don't. I respect the fact he would say he didn't know, when he didn't know the answer.

2--3 years ago I like to speedrun through the cold and dark process ( no oxygen test, instrument test etc ). but now I really want to learn how to fly the airplane the right way. thanks to ur video I learned alot from it. the only downside is my brain can't keep up with the sequences. I tend to forget things easily so I had to follow this video from start to engine start every single time I want to fly. Good thing it usually take 4-5 flights before I can remember and fly without help from your video. 😂😅

This is truly the best tutorial for this aircraft. As are all of your videos. Watched the CJ4 Tutorial years ago and then the CRJ when I got it. I tried shorter videos to get to know the 737 but nothing beats this one. I hope you'll continue with this series on various other aircraft. MD82, A320 and once they release the A310, 757, 777 and so on. Maybe someone from FBW or Salty could come in for an A320 or 747 video? That'd be amazing!

@FilbertFlies Жыл бұрын

Thank you! Would love to do similar videos on all of these aircraft but it's a question of tracking down real world pilots who want to devote 6 hours of their days off to doing a video with me, and that's easier said than done sadly.

@@FilbertFlies oh I can only imagine the work in the background. I'm not saying this as a request, merely saying that your effort wouldn't be wasted on any aircraft, really. For the A320 there are two really nice German pilots (capt320 and riiva) who do regular streams and seem really cool. Night be worth a shot.
