I once again place this video into the legendary tutorials.
Thanks very much. I feel like sometimes I add too many details so I am glad for the feedback that you think its just right!
One of the Best Tutorials on Simbrief ! I usually never subscribe to youtubers, but you got my sub. Can't wait for the more in depth video of simbrief.
Thank you for a simple, professional and informative explanation on this. I've been looking for something like this and haven't been able to find anything that explains it as well as you do. I appreciate it!!
Great tutorial, Excellent. I have full Simbrief subscription n My opinion is, when the FMC is zoom in student are can able to see better how/what do you entering into FMC, even when you say it, these two combination is perfect. Thanks
01:42 - _"Expect to add an average of 59 kt to our ground speed ... to our airspeed the whole time"_
The first option was te correct one. A positive ("P") wind component is a tailwind, which will add to your ground speed.
It's easy to check: From Toronto to Boston you're in an easterly course. The average wind given (254/068) is coming from the southwest, so it will give you a tailwind component, which confirms that when the wind component is coded as positive ("P") in the flight plan, it is your *ground speed* that will be increased.
...Good video. Keep 'em coming.
Thanks. I do occasionally mis speak when I am recording these long videos.
@@CaptNabs thanks so much bro!! I’m on series x and bought the pmdg 737-800! Best $75 I’ve ever spent I was just always confused on how to enter the flight plan manually, I didn’t understand how to enter the route correctly with all that dct stuff but this helped so much! Thanks my brother!
@@chuck176 Glad I helped. These computers can be complex, even for experienced pilots. Patience and a good teacher are essential. Best of luck flying the 37. Its a lot but worth the $$.
@@CaptNabs thank you my friend! I’m new to this but it totally helped!
Thanks a lot. Brilliantly explained.
So I printed off around 15 SimBrief Flight Plans with only the three pages to go on for each one. Oh boy! I'm glad I did, what a relief knowing I don't really need the other 33 pages lol Fantastic explanation. I would have went just a little slower when entering digits into the FMC/Next Column etc but I'm just picky lol Cheers.
Just think how much paper is wasted every day with airlines that still print all of this on paper!
I do sometimes go a little fast, but youtube has great speed control so everyone can adjust speeds if english is not their first language. I love that feature sometimes.
Cheers!
thank you for your video I appreciate
This is great!
So, when I follow my route on SimBreif and try to put in the MCDU, some Airways or STARS aren't there. Is this because of me running the old AIRAC cycle?
Yes. SimBrief has a nav database built in based on a certain date. If it doesn't match what's in your aircraft, you can have issues.
STARs and SIDs are pretty straightforward. just look for a different number but the same name. For example, LINNG3 will become LINNG4 for its next update.
Airways don't change as often but you will have to skip an airway if it isn't in your database.
Hi - Thanks for tut. Question = After selecting ILS27 and then JFUND2, you then select PONCT and after that AYBEE which is not on the Simbrief print out. How do you now what to select and if I do not known what to select where can I find it? Thanks.
You will need to look over the charts to determine which transitions you want to fly. Determine what transition makes the most sense based on the direction you are arriving from. There may or may not be a common waypoint from the end of the STAR and the start of the approach. This will require you to do some investigation.
Thank you very good video well explained but I don't know why the routes generated in simbrief don't come out I do everything step by step and I get another sids in the different fmc the one I have doesn't appear in the generated flight plan if you can help thanks
If you are wondering why your SIDs dont match what SimBrief spits out, it could be a difference between the data in SinBrief and your aircraft. Navdata gets updated every 8 weeks and SIDs are updated every so often, so it could be the data sets don't match because the date ranges are different. If the SID has the same name but a different number, like ANJLL4 vs ANJLL5, its an updated version. The changes are usually pretty small but check your routing in the FMS against the chart carefully to spot differences.
Hey i have a question so there are certain sids and stars in flp right? So in this the altitude was fl370. How do we climb to that altitude do we directly climb to that or is there a altitude for each sid/star in the simbrief
And can we set it in the fmc so the autopilot could do that for us?
This is a pretty big question.
1) A SID is a clearance from ATC. It is your agreement with ATC that you will comply with all the charted instructions until ATC issues a change. So it is super important to read and understand the chart. Don't just load it in your FMS. Ensure you read, understand the chart, and that it matches what is in your FMS. In this case, the KEPTA3 departure instructs you to maintain a certain heading (237 to 1100 feet, then 245) and altitude (5000).
2) Normally, on departure, you would set the top altitude on the SID, in the KEPTA3 departure, 5000' (unless ATC gives you different instructions). This is the first altitude you climb to and is your limit until ATC authorizes higher.
3) Once you have taken off, you contact the radar controllers, who will issue further instructions towards your flight planned route and to climb higher, as airspace and traffic permits. If you are flying offline with no ATC, you can climb to cruise whenever you feel it is appropriate. If you are online, contact ATC to climb higher than the SID.
4) Depending on the country, some will expect you to meet all constraints on the SID while you are flying it. In other countries, you will be instructed to "CLIMB VIA xxx SID", which means you must comply with all the constraints on the SID. In these countries, if they don't say CLIMB VIA, then none of the constraints need to be followed. If in doubt, ask for clarification, as the rule is different from one country to the next.
As an example, here was me reviewing the SID point-by-point during a very recent livestream: ruclips.net/video/Xd3GYx3xaLk/видео.htmlsi=F8fAgj4MZ41LIGnW&t=7535
I made sure the FMS programming matched my chart fully.
Hope that helps.
And yes, if you have everything properly programmed in the FMS, then you can engage the autopilot and let the autopilot fly instead. Just make sure it is doing what you expect.
