    This video along with the last one on proper scan technique are so vital in truly honing our skills set to properly hand fly any kind of aircraft and especially the airliners.
    All your videos are so well done. We are very fortunate to have someone like you who puts the amount of time & effort you do into making these. Thank you very much for doing so!

    This is really interesting to see, and gives a slight idea into what autolandings are like for the pilots and autopilots, what they know from the instruments and what they can't see. Of course bringing it down like that will keep you on the runway, that is what the autoland does, but it is still nerve racking to not look out the windows at minimums

    All your videos are great Emi but there's something about this one that really truly shows the skill that airline pilots actually have that you rarely get to see or think about. The fact that in the sim it possible the crew might be doing this raw data ILS approach with an engine failed and while wearing on O² mask just blows my mind.

    • @A330Driver
      @A330Driver  Год назад

      Yep, or even better, doing it in the sim with the mask on and a smoke filled Cockpit and failed AP in direct law due to the fire eating through the electricals while the smoke hardly let's you read the instruments. THAT is fun. Who cares engine failures 😄

    Brilliant lesson, clear and concise. Being a non-pilot but long term simmer I admit that I used to "chase the needles" but through experience I gradually almost subconsciously taught myself to use pitch and small movements - but now I know why I did that!

    Great stuff! I've learned these tricks over the years as an arm chair pilot through trial and error (as well as watching youtube content from real world pilos like you). I do hear you say a lot "most simmers". My question to you, is where do you make the assessment of how "most simmers" do or do not fly their aircraft? I'd imagine a lot comes from your discord community.

    • @A330Driver
      @A330Driver  Год назад +6

      Indeed it's a mixture of the ~5 years I worked in the support of a major FS developer before and while I became a pilot, as well as a mixture of watching other RUclips videos and reading comments here and elsewhere.
      Sure enough that "elsewhere" includes my own discord community as well 👍🏼

      @A330Driver  Год назад +3

      Obviously landing it manually like that is stuff you only do from time to time for fun in the (real) sim, but never in the plane. But remember: A CAT I minimum is just 200ft above the runway. Until then you need to be able to fly it manually and on profile.
      Oh, and an NDB approach minima starts where again, 350ft?

    This video does a great job of showing the relationship between pitch and airspeed. It shows perfectly how the pitch for airspeed principle works. (:

    • @A330Driver
      @A330Driver  Год назад +1

      Just keep in mind, it's not "pitch for Airspeed", that's a general aviation principle which makes precise flying impossible. The true "formula" is "Pitch+Power equals Performance".
      Essentially that's what it is: Unless you're on the backside of the powercurve you can ALWAYS say in a 737-800 with 5 degrees of pitch and 60% N1 the plane will fly. But you need both, pitch AND power 👍🏼

    • @ClouDAction.
      @ClouDAction. Год назад

      So how do you control airspeed in a glider? Or how does the 737 control airspeed in N1 or when the throttle is at idle? (;

    Real pilot here, excellent video. Proper flying technique gets replaced with “follow the flight director”… now my airline is a factory of “children of the magenta”

    • @A330Driver
      @A330Driver  Год назад +1

      My former airline used to be as well. First couple of A330 sim sessions during my new type rating were literally flying with the eyes out and shooting visual and/or raw data approaches. It was easy to get back into it, but took a couple approaches.

  • @Rodhern
    @Rodhern Год назад

    0:35 "The localizer gives plus/minus 5 degrees (on either side)", at 3:20 disconnects automation and gets a seemingly 'conventional' ILS localizer indicator (two white circles on each side). So at this point are we back to a conventional scale (plus/minus 2.5deg) or ... ?

  • @littleferrhis

    I’m an IRL CFII. Just FYI, at least in the U.S., you do not want to be dropping flaps and gear while you are descending on the ILS. The rule is that the airplane should be fully configured prior to the Final Approach Fix (FAF), which is glideslope intercept on an ILS.

    • @A330Driver
      @A330Driver  2 месяца назад +1

      Hi, could you tell me where that rule is written? It would be against our SOP and with the speed restriction I'm used to get in the US would also be outside the airplane limits to fly the ILS fully configured (flap overspeed).

  • @gwalker3092
    @gwalker3092 Год назад

    I do try this sometimes for a change but i tend to over correct as you mention its good practice though as its easy to just rely on automation in the sim and get lazy. Also if the crosswind is strong the localiser can be a bit tricky on manual but its skill, practice and understanding all the inter-connecting motions that really matter.

    • @eamonnw
      @eamonnw Год назад

      I wonder if you missed this detail, even though this is manual at 03:35 he talks about keeping the ground track pointer, or maybe its called flight track pointer aligned with the heading bug to make it easy to correct for crosswind.

    • @A330Driver
      @A330Driver  Год назад +1

      Crosswinds are when I like the TRK UP ND so much. Just put your track line right on the runway course and that's it. No matter the wind.

    What is power N1 range for adjusting during this ILS approach. I see you add some power when flap down but should N1 keep reducing when plane got close to the runways or we fix the thrust N1 at some number says 40%

  • @TheChabwino
    @TheChabwino Год назад +1

    I always understood pitch and power flying like that you control the descent rate with power and the speed with pitch?!

    • @A330Driver
      @A330Driver  Год назад +1

      No, not at all.
      Pitch and Power means you set pitch and power as per standard tables, like 5 degrees nose up and 60% N1.
      Your method is what they teach in many places general aviation, but it's unusable for precise flying as you need it IFR to follow a glide down to minimums or generally in airliner flying.

    during the ils which thrust setting did you use? because you were at 180kts before gear down than at gear down I can see idle thrust, but i think you didn’t fly at idle thrust to have 180kts

      IDLE works pretty fine in the 737 with flaps 5 and a 3 degree glide.

  • @Rookblunder

      He would be using yoke. He has stated don’t fly with trims on other videos. Fly with yoke but trim out and gradually reduce pressure on yoke. I’m still practicing this

      "Catastrophic structural damage" at 600fpm? You've never been aboard a Ryanair plane it seems 😂
      Seriously though, as long as it's not a nose wheel landing you won't damage your plane like that. From about 1000fpm (and remember the speed is squared in any such formular) you can start seeing damage. That famous recorded 727 crash in the desert was 1500fpm and nose wheel first).
