These tutorials are great! Keep up the good work. I was a general aviation pilot for 15 years with an instrument rating. But I had to give it up. The XPlane 11 is a wonderful but complex simulator. Your clear, concise uncluttered presentations are so helpful. Being a teacher myself I can say that your methods are terrific. You repeat and review which really helps. Once again Bravo and keep it up. Thanks, Mike B. Chicago

Dude your videos are awesome for a newbie. I was really struggling with understading the relationship between the AP, GPS and Gauges. It's all coming together now. It's amazing how much anxiety this sim can generate if you don't know what to "really" do. Still have some practicing to do and probably need to re-watch some videos a few times, but it's starting to click and become a lot more enjoyable. TY brother for taking the time.

I just got my copy of XPlane 11 and was so puzzled when I watched your old vid about the AP. Now everything makes sense again :) Thank you for your work and always good landings.

I have watched this video several times and I always learn from it. The pauses at the beginning where you give us time to make the joy stick buttons was very helpful so well done. And then when we continue with video , you help us check them out. And I really appreciate the entire video. Thanks.

I agree, Jason certainly has the best style to explain things and the little things, like you mentioned, pausing the video to explain stuff without going on about it like so many others on youtube.

A simply brilliant tutorial. You really understand your audience and are intent on educating rather than showing how smart you are. That is a rare skill that others could do well to learn. The recaps that you do are invaluable. I learnt so much and am now much more confident in navigating the aircraft. Thank you.

Clear. Concise. Pauses in all the right places. I hadn't used X-Plane for well over a year - was looking for on-off AP switches that weren't there, had no clue about S-tech. Someone else's video (no names!), was much less easy to follow.

Wow! Thanks! When I went to set a button on my RhinoStick I found one was already assigned, a button labeled (A) (autopilot?) toggles it on and off! And now I know how to pre-flight test the autopilot! Quite simple really! Thanks!

Had lots of problems mastering this as I am completely new to flying. For some reason I end up flying FROM on the beacon instead of TO when trying the ILF landing but I persevered, rewinding your excellent video many times and in the end I got it to work and made a perfect ILF descent and landing. Thank you so much for this.

Thanks for making this. I used your first video and got completely confused when you got into the air and said: "now engage the autopilot." I was like, cool, where is the button for that? But you didn't show what you were doing or how. Total confusion and another video elsewhere finally got me sorted. This video is much better and more thorough. Again, thanks.

Thank You Very Very Much. I have had no autopilot engagement of servos just the animation of where the plane should go. since the 11.3 update.

Yup. Jumped on this video like a hungry tiger. 20 minutes fighting the autopilot as it was determined to kill me. Only way I could disconnect the Autopilot was to go into menu bar, let the AI control airplane, desperately restart the engine and prop midair then turn off AI control. Now I can maybe use the Autopilot now. Very instructive video,

You can also turn on the AP by clicking the HDG button on the autopilot itself. (Maybe have your heading bug pointing straight ahead first, because the plane will immediately begin following that bug)

Whenever I do the AP heading and altitude as shown, after about 10 minutes, the avionics screens go blank and the plane is out of control (AP shuts off). X-Plane support has not been able to resolve this. Anyone had this happen and had a cure?
