I am a real world Airline pilot with thousands of hours flying the real aircraft and thought it would be fun to have a look at the detailed simulations of airliners in MSFS and X Plane. Hopefully you find this useful and it brings another perspective to your simulation. Any thoughts or comments are welcome!

Hey quick tip for you on the minimums knob.... Hold down the mouse to turn the knob, then drag it out while holding to the far left or right depending on direction and your minimums numbers will roll in much faster.

The absolute best at these tutorials. You have a great way of explaining things, got me into properly flying in MSFS with your 320 tutorials. 🙌🏻

I think airline pilots are incredible for the amount they need to know but let's have a shout out to all the programmers who make the software so people can fly like pilots.

Can't thank you enough for these videos. I just got the 777 today and wrote down pages of notes from your videos. I did a successful flight from Denver to San Francisco on my first try, ILS landing into SFO as well. This is a whole different beast then the 737 but I love it!

Great tutorial. What I love most about the PMDG 777 is everything works the way it should. I found myself doing work arounds on the Asobo 78 for things that wouldn't engage. Will you do a video on a 777 engine out profile? :)

Kindly go over DH (Decision Height) as I get confused which one to use. I have watched videos on this but I have not fully understood which figure to use. Secondly approach chart that are assigned with a letter.

If I was given a shortcut to a waypoint/VOR by ATC during the descent and was asked to be at a certain FL or altitude at it, before excepting that I can meet that restriction is there a way through the FMC and ND screen to confirm i can meet the restriction?

@SMN435 4 күн бұрын

Wow, thank you so much capt! These tutorials are so helpful. One thing however. What is the difference between the thrust lims CLB amd CRZ

@320SimPilot 2 күн бұрын

Glad you enjoyed it! The thrust ratings are the limits for the engines. You can’t run engines at takeoff thrust for a long time, so they have a limit of climb thrust instead, which will be allowed for a much longer period of time. Hope that helps!

@SMN435 2 күн бұрын

@@320SimPilot thanks a lot really helped to make me understand, however, say if I am running a de rated takeoff of simply TO, how would I know what thrust rating to put for takeoff?

@drannelfatgaming1368 7 сағат бұрын

Thanks, one question though! What replay Tool do you use, so that the flight controll surfaces, the tilted landing gear and all the other details show up? Since PMDG use their own codes the standard replay tool doesnt recognize these for me. Thanks!

@mattwright5887 Күн бұрын

How do you select which flaps to use? I see that it defaults to 25, is there a reason for that? Is flaps 30 only used in calm conditions or when runway length requires it?

For some reason, my bird does not descend by itself in VNAV, even after setting the altitude. It just flies right by T/D

@brandonchappell1535 4 күн бұрын

Every ILS ive done its really unstable, seems like a bug with the throttle, it over corrects then the plane starts chasing the diamond up n down, and starts dropping the nose as you approach touchdown. Yours seemed stable though, not sure what is going on?!

Wouldn’t you need to tune into atis at the arrival airport for info about what runways are being used for departures and arrivals due to the winds there?

@LaviDzine 4 күн бұрын

You would more than likely receive that information from ATC, i think the layout of this tutorial was more of an "Assume we have all the instructions and Information" type of deal 😉

Yes ... if one is available! But that's not always the case ...

@ederss7 3 күн бұрын

In the P3D version the plane slows down automatically for the approach. It shows a green dot on the route path.

@salokin1 3 күн бұрын

It does in MSFS as well, as he mentioned ... but safer to take control of speed so that flaps can be correctly co-ordinated with speed.

Does anyone know why my 777 suddenly loses speed during cruise to just above stall speed and my altitude reduces, Vnav pth also has a yellow line going through it

@obriets 4 күн бұрын

Sounds like the vagaries of MSFS live weather. A sudden dramatic change happens instead of a smoothed change.
