The turbulence just before landing, that was really special.

I dabbled a lot of FS back in the early days and all I had was a flight plan using VORs to go from one airport to another. Thanks for showing how to fly in XP11 using ATC. Can't wait to get my hands on one!

thank you so much for these tutorials. I know they're 2 years old now, but they are REALLY helpful....Really like your channel...

Thank you so much. More than ATC, I learnt about the ILS approach with autopilot.

That video was very helpful, thanks! First time Flight Sim user and I know how to take off and land, but that's about it. Your video has given me the confidence to do more than just circle an airport lol. I'll start by copying your flight :)

Followed your whole flight to KLAX, learned a lot, thank you!

Whoa, I can't believe ATC allowed that airliner to pass right over your head! The autopilot certainly didn't like that wake turbulence. 🤣

This is such an underrated video, thanks J.

I purchased xplane 11 prior to doing my research unfortunately. So with buying a new desktop and learning I require an adapter for the monitor connection, for my older monitor, I hope to install the program shortly and learn to fly. Great video. I learned a lot!

Your tutorials are the best! Thank you!

Great Training Videos Learned from all of them

This helped me so much because I just started the x plane realistic things and am planning oon becoming a better pilot, so this helped me greatly by learning and understanding the Cessna aircraft better :)

You did what you said you would do - you taught us how to interact with ATC and you did it very well

Hi Jason -great video. I have been flying FSX since its birth and have flown XPlane since V8 and have always found the ATC on XP either non-existent or an annoyance but your video here with XP v11 gives me another perspective, demonstrating that the ATC does indeed work and pointing out bits of the 172 autopilot that I had not noticed before. Now I can catch up with more realistic flights vying with FSX , notwithstanding the odd heavy being directed through my flight-path :) - do people really think that the default ATC on FSX is perfect? - I must smile at the odd comment below to the actual perfection of your flying -hey, nobody is perfect! Your lesson worked fine for me. Thanks a million - worth a subscription!

EXCELLENT Video Sir ! I hope you are still making videos. Thank You for this highly instructional and well done video.

Best video on KZfaq for understanding X-Plane 11 ATC. Also, a great channel for RNAV/GPS

Thanks for the great walkthrough, detailed and clear.

Thanks Jason ! Your vids have helped me tons, especially since I switched fromfs2004 to xplane 11.

Well, it was eye opening in the sense of how amazing XP11 is. I installed it and am learning it little by little. I use 10.51 more because I know it well, but 11 is certainly compelling. Your PC video quality is very high because the AFL 172 looks beautiful. I'm still trying to make it work nicely with both 10.51 and 11. Not easy.

Fantastic job, I really learned a lot. Yes, there are some things that I would like changed in the program it will come as more people are requesting changes. Thanks again.

Thank you for sharing the video, I've learned a lot.

Thanks for this. I am new to flight sim and XPlane 11 is great so foar. Soooo much for me to learn! Very exciting!

I really love this step by step video for beginners, hope that more video like this . Thanks

Great video, Jason! I'm going to try it this evening. Best regards from The Netherlands.

Great video. I personally learned a lot. Can't wait to get home and try it. Thanxxxxx

Genius! Thanks for the explanation. I was having problems with the ATC haha

You have done everything very well ,The only think I recommend on the Turn coordinator when turn ,make all of your turns Standard Rate turn per IFR .Thank you

Great video and commentary. Thank you

Your videos are really helpful. Thanks!!

Thanks Jason, keep up the great work. Nice video .

Informative. Well done! Thank you!

Thank you for your videos. They help me so much.

Thanks for sharing. I'm a private pilot with about 200 hours of SE time. Going to be using X-plane 11 to "pre-fly" my short cross country flights out of KGAI. Real world ATC would have been busted for that oh-shit moment when the 737 buzzed overhead. I imagine your plane could have gone inverted, but wake turbulence is unpredictable. BTW, I find landings and non-autopilot aircraft control in the sim is far more difficult than in the real world. There's no substitute for the visual perspective, sounds, etc. Of course, sim is a whole lot less expensive! It would be nice if sim let you change your aircraft number and the readback voice, but that's not a game changer.

Thank you for the very educational video.

Lol that 737 flew over a Cessna, caused wake turbulence and landed on the taxiway. I think approach tower did a great job! :D

Learned a lot from this video. Thanks man!

Very nice example for us, thank you

watched this a few times, many thanks

Excellent tutorial! Thank you...

As usual awesome introduction. Regards

Great stuff! Learned much!

Very nice video, Jason...!

Thanks you taught me my first flight . Newquay to lands end .

X-Plane 11 is, as a lot of people know who have this Flight Simulator, so realistic. So even if, like me, you never became a commercial pilot or your love for flying is an important human aspect in life you always can pretend being a pilot. And using all the instruments as it should be. Thumb up from The Netherlands.

love your videos thanks ...take care.

Excellent video!

Just amazing ! Huge thanks !!

finally a video that i can understand thank you man

Im playing this game on mt HTC VIVE and im LOVING it. I bought it recently and its absolutely amazing being able to press all the buttons in vr

I know we joked about the 747 passing above the Cessna, but a lot of you weren't around in September of 1978, when a commercial airliner and a Cessna 172 were in the same type of scenario, and the outcome was very tragic. Pacific Southwest Airlines (PSA) flight 182, a Boeing 727, and the Cessna 172 with an instructor and a student pilot, were involved in a mid-air collision, both aircraft crashed into neighborhoods in San Diego, CA and 144 people lost their lives, including 9 on the ground. :-( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PSA_Flight_182

I learned a lot! Thank you

great teaching. Appriciated

Great vid makes it easy thank you

Skews me while I land my heavy jet over your head lol. Seriously though, great instruction I will probably watch it many times. Thanks!

Excellent clip Thanks!

Very interesting, I learned something.

Thanks Jason i would like to see more of this!! how would you go about setting your own flight plans from state to state?

thank sooomuch for the videos they do help a lot thank you again

pretty nice video instruction, thanks

Excellent..of all the vids I watched on ILS approach this is the one I learnt the most from as you went through methodically from soup to nuts. Thank you sir. edit:Was expecting you to show the glide path on the map and how did you know when to activate nav on approach?

Do wish X-Plane 11 had 'Traffic Zapper.' It came with FSUIPC when I had FSX-SE. Other than that, I do appreciate this, thanks!

What sim controls are you using? Great video by the way!

Excellent Jason. Could you point me in the direction of the scenery add on that is evident on this flight?

great tutorial , thanks!

You make it look easy.

great video, thanks

I'm learning a lot thanks to your videos. I did this exactly as you did and worked just fine. Then I tryed it in my home base flying from SCEL to SCTB and the ATC take me directly to a crash agaisnt a hill. I don't know why. Maybe I should have set a route.

Great video, I like your tutorials. Though you could probably edit out (or speed up) the flying parts where nothing is happening. Cheers mate.

Looks like you were originally tuning-in to the ILS frequency for RW-25 Right on NavCom 1 with 111.10 at the 20:50 mark, but then your radio configuration ended-up tuned-in to RW-25 Left on 119.90 which is probably more consistent with standard landing procedure at LAX. I think they generally take off from the 2 interior runways 25R and 24L and land on the exterior runways to help with separation. There apparently was a major fatal accident that happened on 24L in 1991 when a 737 was cleared to land and it hit a twin turbo prop waiting for takeoff on the same runway further down the runway. The FAA recommended separating traffic that way but they apparently did not put it into practice until 2004 when another accident almost happened with a 747 landing on the same runway 24L and 737 was lined up and waiting for takeoff 200 feet beneath the path of the 747 landing right above it. Talk about wake turbulence! Anyway, appreciate the the video and you sharing your experience using ATC and AP in X-plane. I picked up a few tips on some things with waypoints in the maps feature and using AP for headings, ascents, holding altitude and the ILS. I know the purpose of the video was to show those features and not how to execute a perfect flare on landing or turn away from wake turbulence on final approach after you had spent time recording an entire video demonstrating other features. Those pointers are helpful in their own way but we should all be willing to show a little humility and grace towards others in the aviation and sim community who work to share their knowledge by recording, editing, narrating and uploading videos with helpful content. Even a seasoned, celebrity actor and pro aviator like Harrison Ford can make a mistake like missing a runway and landing on a taxiway at KSNA. Aviating, navigating, communication and flying in complex airspace is challenging and good pilots never stop learning things in the industry, ever. Keep filiming, keep sharing, keep flying!

Thanks so much for your help

I had to fly a single engine from San Diego to Rapid City SD. the Pilot would be awoken to change Nav. It made me absolute hate single engine planes...hour after hour just hanging there!!! Love the Baron Twin!!!!

Thanks so much Jason

I love how within like 15 seconds you drop flaps in the yellow and then a 74 flies over you by a hundred feet and rocks you with wake turbulence lmao

wow that was great thx for the lesson

Very helpful video. Just need to know what the "keyboard assignment" is for activating the Autopilot function. TY

WOW you actually got into turbulence when the jet flew over you!!! You need to report the near miss to the controller once you land. lol

Appreciate the help immensely. Maybe I missed it from another video but I don't understand how you set up the approach .

Nice Demo, Jason! Pilot's response voice should be a totally different voice from voice responses of other aicraft, a 'My Voice' male or female voice, selected upon pilot's option in setup. Yellow text should pop up in pilot's front view for the convenience of users having three monitors. ATC should keep the pilot well above or below large jets ahead on approach to avoid turbulence, and/or no aircraft over flies the pilot out of cleared landing order. Have sent this demo to other XP Sim friends not yet upgraded to XP-11. BruceBuilds on the Gateway.

At least we know the game does have a detailed jet turbulence simulation lol

Caution: wake turbulence. Lol.

Just got started with X-Plane. Your videos are extremely helpful. Can you tell me what keyboard commands you use to zoom in to see the airport and also the Cessna cowling?

Why are the readbacks vocalized, but not the actual requests? Kind of takes me out of the ATC experience.

Cool video 👍

thank you for this tutorial

This is exactly the scenario I have a question-comparison with FSX...How to bring up a text on top of the screen showing heading, speed, etc...on x-plane...Thanks

Coming in for approach! Giant 747 comes right over him. "Tower we a have a bit of turbulence but nothing much." Lol

Great video. Can you also make a video of what controllers you have and how to set them up in the simulator ?

Very interesting and educational. Panel view is better with the yoke removed - but you didn't mention that. Why is XP11 scenery always so hazy? Inspired now to try this myself. Thanks.

TY for this!

Good video ! HAHAHAHAHHA that 747 turbulence almost make you crash but good ! ; )

atc is good for familiarization especially prior to learning vatsim...pilot edge etc

wait.... jet wake are simulated O_O ?!

I have been using this ATC for filing a flight plan but when I get to the airport to where am suppose to land ATC do not give any info so I have to terminate my Flight plan and use the mobile map to do a in line circuit and land the x-plane 11.10 do not have it they should look at the one atc for 9.70 with full ATC directives.

For some of us having Mac computer and we don't have something like ATC, and world traffic setup. Would you explain another video about Mac computer please?

Thanks Jason just what I needed , getting XPlane installed and learning .One question , the Autopilot turn on and off keyboard commands ? Yes do it theru Yoke .Maybe Video you did on that ? keep up good work.

Enjoyed the video and your patient voice. Somehow I turned on the green high lights on the yoke and don't see where you turn it off. What is it used for? I made a plan and reached the airport in route but when I got there the controller kept me in a hold pattern at 2000. Seems like I was waiting a long time in pattern. What should you do....almost out of gas.

Thanks you a lot, one more subscriber and a like

Hi, at 6:53 how did you activate the auto pilot. And thanks for teaching me. I’m a newbie to flying

Not too sure .. in X-plane you don't have to request start, taxi? Thanks so much for this vid .. appreciated!

hi great vid! i'm planning a flight from Heathrow to Paris in xp 11.11 won't allow waypoints (it says navaid error) for Dover and Calais. so must i fly direct? help certainly would be useful. Thank you. i'm using the option in xp to file flight plan.
