Safety Check and Preliminary Preflight Procedure (PMDG 747-400)

[@myZisfantastic]

All your vids are definitively a must see for people who want an as much possible thorough knowledge of the 747! As a former flight engineer(DC-8 and DC10, basically not a Boeing guy)I enjoy them very much!
Thank you so much
Happy landings

Thanks Captain for taking your time to make this channel a real good thing for aviation enthusiastics, Best

Thank you Robson, hope to add to these in the future, glad you are enjoying them and find some value...

With MSFS released and hopefully PMDG bringing their Boeing fleet over to the new sim, your sight will have new life!
Great content and I hope you produce more videos and get a million subscriptions...you certainly deserve it, Thanks Captain

[@subsonicflighttraining]

I did not expect to get many views except from folks who want more detail of how to enjoy their sim experiences, so I was somewhat surprised when I have had pilots use this material to prep for transition to the 747. Thanks for being a subscriber...

@@subsonicflighttraining No worries! I’m working through the videos again and the questions. Thanks for all of your advice and help.
All the Best,

[@subsonicflighttraining]

I get pretty lax making these videos, hopefully I will start producing some more. I go in spurts...Thank you for the kind words.

There’s a option to get the irs alignment realistic and it takes 10 min to align it. Great video, I’m enjoying all of your videos a lot!

[@subsonicflighttraining]

Thanks Lucas, at the time of the video I couldn’t recall, since then I found it, so glad you are getting some knowledge out of my videos...

Thank you very much.Enjoying your training videos.

[@subsonicflighttraining]

So glad Tonforr, I did not have any feedback, so I was not sure anyone found them instructive and informative...

thank you it´s a great content, keep posting, it´s the best training on youtube

[@subsonicflighttraining]

Thank you for the kind words Gabriel, I have not posted in a while, but maybe I should continue producing some more of these if people find them useful...

[@gabriel25874136gab]

for the realistic alignment go on the fmc MENU>PMDG SETUP>OPTIONS>SIMULATION>IRS OPTIONS and click on REAL

[@subsonicflighttraining]

Thanks Gabriel, I thought I did have that checked to REAL, but I will check it again...

Capt, if I may ask, I'm a 747-400 enthusiast who has his PMDG QOTS 2 747-400 since February 2017. Why must one side of the electrical panel must be turned off in order for the combi or freighter model side door or both side door and nose door to open?

[@subsonicflighttraining]

APU 2 or EXT 2 must be Available (AVAIL, not ON) only in order to power the Main Deck Cargo Handling Bus. APU 1 or EXT 1 must be Available (AVAIL, not ON) to power the Ground Handling Bus. If you have 2 power sources on one side, like APU 2 ON and EXT 2 AVAIL, then that will keep the Main Deck Cargo Handling Bus powered...

@@subsonicflighttraining Ok, my mistake on saying off instead of avail, that non aviation in me LOL Most of the time I fly the passenger variant of the PMDG 744.
