Completly agree! Mountains looks a bit better in X. Especially the edges on top! Nicely done CAP! This approach was the tutorial flight for the PMDG 737NGX in FSX with a very detailed FMC set up. Loved it!
i've always thought that mountains look better in X-Plane. not only the sharpness of the ridges, but something about the lighting and distance fog model makes them seem more dramatic, 3d and "present". it's hard to articulate, but at the end of the day they just look better.
You did very well getting that A346 into Innsbruck. London City is another airport which is quite limited, would you be able to get an A321 into London City airport?
I fly a lot to LOWI during the last month to master the circleing.... at the first weeks i added customs waypoints which were placed at the charts path (or at the turns) to get a feeling what is the ideal lateral path; now im using a 2 Waypoint of the RNAVZ08 Approach in the SEC FPLAN ; WI754 and LOWI08 to get a hint about the vertical path, but still completely without AP. Speed is set always +2 +3kt above the computed approach speed.
Altough roughly 1300 hours in the Airbus A320-familiy in Xplane, it is still a shame I can't manage the Circling approach at LOWI. Salzburg, Genoa, Madeira: no problem at all. But Innsbruck, no way haha!
interesting video for sure. LOWI is one of my fav airports with the airport addon scenery and mountains. I do a lot of flights from there and the 08 KPT5J departure is very interesting. It’s fun it see what the various planes ToLiss/PMDG/fenix do when they fly it on autopilot. I carnt imagine what the cabin announcement must be on takeoff “pls hang on it’s going to be scary”. Maybe it’s not meant for large aircraft maybe my ignorance. Either way it’s a great airport to learn flying
Can you make a video about Take Off Shift in Airbus and 737, please? Best example would be EDDF RWY 18 as it is done very often in reality. Also it would be interesting to know if it makes sence to depart from a runway entry far away from the runway beginning, and using more thrust, in relation to time saving. For example at RWY 18, you might wait 10 min before your turn comes for departure, because 4 or 5 aircrafts need to depart before you. So the 10 min time saving by using Take off shift would be an advantage, but with the consequence of higher thrust (higher fuel consumption), more noise and stressing more the engines.
@@A330Driver Please, do a video about T.O. Shift. Also the PMDG 737 has this as an option. I saw it only one time in a JustPlanes Video where it was applied in an A333 with PW4000 engines. But there were no explanations about that. Of course it would be nice to see a comparison between Airbus and Boeing. Thanks in advance.
Now that's gonna be interesting. Provided we can get it off the Apron I'm fairly positive it would work though. At light weight those long haul aircraft have am incredible power.
Hello. I was accepted a challenge on the mobile simulator RFS. The challenge is flying on minimums into to LOWI with the Airbus A320-200. Dense fog, shower, overcast naturally. I broke down my FP ratio hardly. The number of go-arounds is insane! And even, I not mentioned, with winds at 20 knots from 150 over the runway. Just because I feel that impossible, just ask you, after made the big bus down here, you once able to try "my challenge"? If you made, I just wanna follows your proceed. The instrument flying is my weak point, sorry.
@@memoryclI suspect Auto Ortho as well, but without it XPain looks so much worse that I just don't want to sacrifice it. I'd rather take the stutters then.
But I am pretry sure, you now will have a problem getting out of LOWI again. 😂 We once had the the christening of an Austrian Airlines A330-223 here at LOWI (the largest plane ever been here in my hometown). Getting out again the plane was without passengers and cargo and only so much fuel to reach Vienna (LOWW).
It shouldn’t be a problem because when being almost empty these big aircrafts are massively overpowered. Even a B747 could easily make it out of LOWI I would guess 😊
@@frankbyte At an only 6000 feet runway at more than 1900 feet altitude? No way!. Maybe with all seats and interior removed and literally only 2 gallons of fuel. Lufthansa once did a flyby with an 747-400 at LOWI, but rejected the full stop landing request by the airport management due to not being able getting out of the airport again.
@@FTStratLP The weight for sure could be a limiting factor. Otherwise, an empty B747 takes off like a rocket. Did you try it? Lety‘s say with zero winds 😃
Is that realistic that a 340 is able to brake to vacate at B ? I can't see that happening irl unless its max manual brake and wheels are in fire ? Even irl, the A320 seems to struggle to vacate without back tracking the runway on MED AB
My guess is that an (almost empty) A340 has more breaking-power (in ratio to its weight) than a normally loaded A320, because of being able to abort a take off at MTOW. So it seems realistic that it stops before an A320. But it would be interesting to hear the explanations from our "profi" 🙂
Yes, it absolutely is. Modern aircrafts brakes are really effective. I don't have data for the A346, but the A330 can be stopped in about 1500m if needed. Even though the brakes will obviously suffer and your tires might very well deflate when the fuse plug melts. Keep in mind that while the A340 is a lot heavier than the A320 it's tires and brakes are designed to support that weight. Also keep in mind the difference between max takeoff weight and max landing weight and that those brakes can support a high speed RTO at MTOW. That gives you an idea of the power of those brakes. Of course the question if it's a good idea to use them like this is on a totally different page. We usually do Auto brake LOW for our approaches to enable a 1:30h Turnaround, which we actually call a quick turnaround. Use MED and combine that with warm temperatures as you won't make it due to brake cooling.
ALT will level the plane at an altitude and it will maintain that while VS0 would just maintain whatever you happen to be at when the plane stopped it's descend.
pressing ALT will not reset the FCU Altitude, however the plane will level off and maintain that altitude. If you push to level off the plane will maintain a VS of zero, however not an altitude. Imagine it like this: If any influence happens that changes the planes altitude, for example because of thermals, ballooning during flap extension, the airplanes inability to maintain a precise VS0 during acceleration/deceleration, etc. then it will not return to it's previous value. In a perfect world VS0 would be the same as ALT, however we don't live in a perfect world and so there will be influences causing slights climbs or descends and VS0 will not correct those, but instead simply maintain a vertical speed of zero at the new altitude.
Hi, I use Auto Ortho, Better Pushback, the AI models for vpilot (not sure of their name right now, I'm not at home for a few days), the ToLiss Airbusses, Hotstart Challenger and airport Addons. That's about it really.
"Den Stromleitungen entlang und Bei der Kirche rechts abbiegen". Ja, echt, sagenhaft aber wahr, willkommen in Innsbruck!

I like how your "just slam it onto the markers" is smoother than 90% of my landings
On the markers landing is always better than smooth landing

Fabulous piece of flying, Captain.
I love this approach
Great work. Would love to see more interesting approaches and landings like this.
Great job cap'tain !
At least for the a320 you should be configured with flaps 3 and gear down plus apu on at the platform altitude at 9500 ft before starting to descend!
Hallo, lovely video, do you mind telling me what A340 you are using?
Thanks. As per the thumbnail, it's the ToLiss A340-600.
sorry about that, should have paid attention, it was a long day of parent teacher interviews

Next you should try RWY 09 at Gibraltar with A340
Next Lukla 😄
Sounds like a good idea, challenge accepted 👍🏼
Give me a few days though, not at home for another few more days.
The circling at Calvi seems quite imposible with a large bird too
@@Manuel-9- I have a hard time alone with the A320 😄 The final turn is extremely tight and close to 30 degrees…
@@frankbyte indeed. The first time I flew there I loaded extra fuel for the expected GA , ended up almost empty 😂😂😂
Now we only need this bird in MSFS!

9:50 That stutters are really weird. Immersion breaker at best.
Yeah, they're really annoying. And I have no idea how to get rid of them. Already applied Q8 Pilot's advise, but without luck.
Default 12.06r3 doesn't jitter like that on that approach. Auto ortho is the first suspect. It's a known jitter-bug. +1 for the replay!

When in real life would you ever want to turn your terrain GPWS off?
When directed by a non normal checklist or by an OEB. And only then.
you have 4090 drop FPS ??
In XPlane yes. It's just not as well developed as MSFS.

ALT will level the plane at an altitude and it will maintain that while VS0 would just maintain whatever you happen to be at when the plane stopped it's descend.
