The Boeing 747-400, my kind of plane. Thank you so much for sharing this video with the rest of the world and in particular with those who love flying and everything else which got to do with it. And thank you also for the very good explanation. Thumb up !! Boeing 747-400 lover from The Netherlands.
Great video, it sounds like you do not use a checklist, a checklist is almost a must for such a complicated plane with many parameters to remember.Keep up the good work, thank you.
AviationPro zeker wel! Vooral de instrumenten aan boord zijn erg prettig om mee te werken. De ingebouwde checklist is ook een handig hulpmiddel voor een beginner :P. Ik zat te twijfelen tussen de b737 en de b777 maar de instrumenten in de 777 zijn een stuk makkelijker te gebruiken. Zit er veel verschil tussen de 777 en de 747?
Haha, als ik wat beter wordt in het vliegen ga ik de 747 zeker uitproberen! Ik had nog een vraagje over de 777. Als je wilt luisteren op een bepaalde frequentie in de radio panel kan het alleen met stapjes van 0.025. Bijvoorbeeld: ik ben getuned op EGKK_GND op 121.800, ik wil overstappen naar EGKK_TWR op 124.220 maar dat kan niet. Ik zit dan of op 124.225 of op 124.200. Hoe kan ik er voor zorgen dat ik de stapjes kleiner kan maken zodat ik ook per 0.005 kan switchen?
Eindelijk!!!! Fantastische video Jij moet meer abonees hebben Je bent echt bijna net zo goed als matt davies. Echt bedankt voor de tutorials en alles💪🏼
"Net zo goed als Matt Davies". Dat denk ik niet. Matt Davies is iemand die zijn simulator tweaks graag wilt laten zien. Hij skipt 80% van de vlucht en tijdens take-off en landing kijkt hij niet naar de instrumenten maar naar buiten. AviationPro daarentegen is aan de leerzame kant.
Dit was zeker maandag avond rond 21:00? Vloog toen mn eerste vatsim vlucht (Eham-ehbk) en herken een paar dingen zoals die delta md-80. Zat denk een kwartiertje achter je. Top video trouwens!! 👍👍👍
Thank you very much for yet another very educative and well executed video. I noticed one interesting thing that when ATC talks to you, he seems to be bit louder and clearer compared to when he talks to other aircrafts. Is this normal? I am still very new on VATSIM, but I also noticed that I can understand controller little bit better when I am given instruction and less when other pilot is given instruction.
Hey AviationPro, could you please do a full flight tutorial which resumes from after the first tutorial you did on the 747 for cold and dark? Would be really helpful
Great video. When I record my flights on my computer, the quality looks nothing like I see when flying and it's bad when I view it on Windows 10 video player. You can see it on my channel but the quality is not like your videos. I do not get it. I don't think it's the recorder for it looks the same with different recording softwares. Please help. Anyone.
Great video! Can I ask your advice? Recently I flew at a very busy event at EHAM with a very similar taxi routing from S cargo. After push and start, my clearance from ground was "taxi to runway holding point... hold short runway 06." Just like in your video, as I held on S2, I was passed to Tower. I waited for some arriving traffic and then Tower cleared me to cross runway 06. After crossing I held, awaiting further instruction from Tower. It was very busy so I waited quite some time and then contacted Tower when there was a break on the frequency. Tower then told me to contact Ground. This is the same as in this video too. After switching to Ground, it was still a long time before I could check in. Meanwhile there were several planes lined up waiting for me. My question is, was I correct in holding until getting explicit clearance from Ground? Or was I supposed to continue taxi given that they had already cleared me to the runway holding point? In your video there was not much other traffic so you were able to contact Ground again quickly to resume your taxi. I felt stupid holding up all the traffic, but was unable to reach Ground because it was so busy. Was this correct? Many thanks for all your tremendously helpful videos... I'd never have been able to start on VATSIM without all your tutorials and helpful explanations!
Thank you, glad you like the videos! I understand your situation. If the initial Ground controller gave you a taxi instruction to the holding point of the departure runway already, then you can indeed just continue taxi after crossing the runway. In the real world it often happens that pilots need to monitor the next Ground frequency without contacting them, and they also just continue taxi because they have already received a full taxi clearance to their gate or holding point ;).
Thank you for the clarification! I have watched many VATSIM videos including yours and have developed a good sense of the correct phraseology to use. However, every situation is unique and I often don't know how to react in new situations that I haven't encountered before. I'll need more practice when ATC isn't so busy! Thanks again.
yo thats me 21:20 my aircraft wouldnt stop and it it just pushed me off the taxi way i caint belive i was at same place as u at same time byw i love ur vids
Alright. I've been searching for an answer on this the last couple days. Almost didn't sleep yesterday. 1st: How do you start on a parking lot with the plane? I keep starting in the middle of the runway. 2nd: How do you use all the buttons in the plane? When i use the 747-400 it's almost only the autopilot that works. Please give me an answer for this. Planes is my biggest passion, and it is killing me that it doesn't work as i expected it to. Greetings.
In Prepar3D, when you select your airport in the right-bottom corner there's an option to select different start locations. Same for FSX and FS2004. To have a fully functional airplane, you need to buy addons. For example, you can buy the PMDG 747 over at PMDG.com which gives you an airplane that is simulated according to the real airplane with 99% of the buttons working and functional.
I'm interested in what you're using on your iPad. How did you get your simbrief fight plan into there, so you can scroll up and down rather than have to print the plan out?
Hey man! Awesome and proffessional vid! I just wonder why you don't use checklist's when your on VATSIM? Anyways! Hope too see more, I've just Joined Vatsim and going to take my PMDG MD-11 when I'm ready on Vatsim! Cheers!
Thank you! Because I don't really like looking down into checklists while I already have to fly, explain things, and make a video at the same time. I do use checklist when I have a first officer with me though ;) Have fun on VATSIM! :)
Hi AviationPro! I enjoyed your video a lot!!! Great job is done again! I've got a question to the Saitek Thrust. I also got two of 'em but I'm not able to connect both at same time with the Saitek Yoke. Can you please show me how you handle it? Like a Adopter or sth like that?? But all in all you've done a great job an keep doing it!💪❤✌
Thank you! :) One of the Saitek Throttles has a PS/2 connector which is connected to the yoke. The other throttle has a USB connector which you can plug into the hub of the yoke. I configured them via FSUIPC :)
Another great video again!! Thanks a lot. This time it was especially nice to see you in full action!! Many happy landings!! ERwin PS: What about a flight from Vienna to Innsbruck in winter?? (If there is any ATC around that area?)
Thank you! Yeah, I'm planning for some winter destinations now the winter season is coming up. I'd love to fly in the new snow effects of Prepar3D V4 and Innsbruck & Vienna are great airports indeed :).
Great video, I really enjoy it. I am just wondering which equipment do you use to make airplane turn right or left when you taxi? Is that old Logitech Extreme 3D Pro Joystick or the Yoke? I don't have a Joystick or Yoke, it makes difficult for me to taxi, So I have been thinking about buying one. here are my two options : a very nice joystick or Yoke+Throttle+Rudder Pedals is a Yoke+Throttle+Rudder Pedals combination able to make airplane turn left or right smoothly like you did on the ground or only a joystick has this function? please give me some advice. Thank you!!!
Thanks! I use the Logitech Joystick as steering tiller (that's the thing used to turn the nose gear left and right for taxi). I would personally go for the yoke and all its elements, because you can always use the rudder for turns during taxi like in GA aircraft.
Liked the video! I see that you are using the FMC for the push but unfortunately I missed the part where you set up the FMC for pushback. I'm flying the 737 but I always wonder how to figure out the correct distance for the FMC to push?
Thank you! I'm not using the FMC, I'm using GSX for all my pushbacks. I don't know what kind of distance to put in either, it's really a guess that might end up way wrong, so I don't like the default pushback feature. GSX will handle the pushback well for you! ;)
Thanks! Yes, I know I should use checklists, but I simply cannot pay attention to checklists all the time and look down to read the checklist, while flying, explaining, listening to ATC, etc. It's not that easy to make such video. When I have a copilot with me, I do use checklists ;)
Is the sound quality of the radio calls a worse on the recording? I listened back to a few of them a couple of times and there was just no way that I would've gotten any information out of them.
No, their old products are not sold anymore by PMDG themselves and of course do not include the new shake effect that you see here. Thanks for watching!
My brother flew for Westjet flying 737 800's out of Calgary and before that for the RCMP in the Twin Otter over the NWT and other parts of Northern Canada for 25 years.I visited him in Calgary in Dec. and we watched you review of Fly Tampa Amsterdam and you doing some flights in his movie room on a 10 foot screen. He thought that you you are doing a great job following the procedures of flying an Airliner in the real world of all the simmers I watch think you are doing the best. I am getting a new PC and will be giving him my PC So he can fly in and out of Schiphol in a Westjet pmdg 737 of course. By the way what AI traffic program do you use for P3D? Keep on flying.
Wow, thanks for sharing your story! :) Glad you guys liked it, and very nice to hear the feedback from a real world pilot! :). I am using World of AI together with vPilot for model matching, works very well. Thanks for watching! :)
wow that's actually very smart of you to use a second keyboard. just wonder how do u bind they keys into the keyboard for example the LNAV VNAV ? do u got to the sim menu to bind them or?
Thanks! You can assign keyboard keys via the FMC of the 747, there are option pages where you can assign various things like MCP and EFIS buttons/knobs.
AviationPro so I can just plug in another keyboard and assign keys to it? do I have to unbind keys from my main keyboard so that the keys won't interfere when I press em?
Hey AP, really like your vids, and I have a question: I feel quite comfortable about going on to VATSIM, but do you need to do and have all of the stuff that you do in your how to use VATSIM videos?
Thanks! I'm not sure what you really mean, but anyways: you need at least a flight simulator of course, like FSX. You can use the default airplanes if you want. I'm using Saitek yoke and throttles for my flight controls, but any joystick is also fine.
I use FSX and I want my clouds and the sky become as dark as in this video. Can you help me or can you recommend a good ENB? And thanks for the really nice video! :)
Some advice dude for the approach would be to put a 10NM and 4/5NM ring in from the landing runway dependent on IFR or VFR conditions for low drag CDA operations. You can also put a 25NM ring in from the MSA reference point for really good airman-ship as well. Nice video otherwise, really like this new addon ;-)
Good day! I love your channel and I’ve learnt a lot from you and your channel. A couple of weeks ago I got the PMDG 737 Pack and everything works well except one thing, whenever I try to start the engines only engine one starts wherever I do. It’s so weird. Do you have any tips on hot to fix?
Hi sir, first of all I would like to say that your profile looks amazing because you are obviously big fan and enthusiast of aviation. I like your videos which help me a lot to get into the world of flight simulation. Thank you for that! I have a simple question. I tried to find help on the internet but there is nothing about my problem. Either I am first man in the world who met this trouble or I am stupid :D On your videos I can see a lot of different types of aircraft with different liveries, but my P3D shows just white aircraft or default liveries of Orbit Airlines although the aircraft is for example SAS. But what is worse is the problem with type of aircraft. B738 looks as Regional Jet (probably Bombardier CRJ-200ER). When Mr. Michael O’Leary bought instead of B738 CRJ200? :D Unbelievable :) If you have just simple answer, please write to comments or send me via e-mail vnts@centrum.cz. Thank you in advance. Have a nice day :) Martin
Hi Martin, thanks a lot! That's indeed how it looks in the default way. What you should do is do something called 'model matching'. Search for 'Vpilot and model matching' here on youtube and you will find some useful videos. Basically you have to install a freeware or payware AI addon so that you have a whole bunch of aircraft types and airlines that are used for AI. vPilot will then recognize these and match them to callsigns as you fly on VATSIM.
I have no idea. I switched tabs within Active Sky, then went back into the simulator, and it was correct, very weird. Still have to make some more flights to see what is the exact problem.
Yes, I believe they are all synced by default anyways, and when checking the video I believe the pressure was equal on both sides. (even though the first officer's side was still set to Inches instead of hPa.
AviationPro, How are you flying from EHAM flytampa without VAS issues,I have tried twice to fly this route you did and I oomed while taxing. Is there a fix or some kinda workaround to make this work?
AviationPro Thanks for the prompt reply,sorry for asking too much please send me your p3d low cfg settings might give it try one more time. Cheers... ;)
Thanks, you got yourself a new Patron (commercial pilot). I'm a pilot myself, PPL, I fly a Cessna 172 from EHGG and want to learn IFR flying in the near future. And what is a better place to start IFR training at home using a flightsim on Vatsim. Learned a lot from you and decided to support your channel. Very good content so far and I except nothing less in future video's. Keep up the good work! Goed weekend!
Thanks, much appreciated! :) Absolutely, VATSIM is a great learning environment, it should help out quite a bit in the real world. Thanks for supporting the channel! :) En een goed weekend ook :)
ik vind dit jouw kanaal geweldig... maar heb een vraagje.. als ik op FSX ben.. en wil mn vlucht plannen.. krijg ik mn FMC niet open.. zou je mij kunnen zeggen hoe en wat ik moet doen om m open te krijgen.. alvast bedank
Great video as always your channel videos are fantastic,I like the way you do your tutorials very in formative and very helpful keep up the good work. .. What app are you using on your iPad for viewing OFP and charts it's really cool,if you don't mind can give it a try. Thanks
Echt een top video Aviationpro! Erg professioneel ook! Een vraagje, zou je je P3DV3 settings met ons willen delen? Je krijgt goede fps en ik wil graag weten hoe.....
just a quick question I hope you andwer me. I fly on vatsim, mostly on southeast Asia. At southeast asia I can request IFR clearance on Center (when there is no Twr or Approach or ground). Yesterday I fly on Europe with center Online, I requested IFR clearance on center. He told me that he's only for route. He didn't give me IFR clearance. Which leads me to a confusion. at Europe and USA can I request IFR clearance on center?
Maybe you contacted Eurocontrol, which only provides ATC for FL245 and above. Usually you can request clearance at center, but only for those that are kind of part of an airport. Like Amsterdam Radar, you can contact for all ATC in Amsterdam and for some regional airports in the Netherlands. But you can imagine that some radar controllers cannot control every single airport in their area, they usually have listed in their controller info which airports they do control. Like Langen Radar East will not control Düsseldorf, but it does control Stuttgart. And if in doubt, you can always ask.
Thanks! I don't have a full list, but I leave most settings at default. Main addons I have are ORBX Global, Ultimate Terrain Europe, REX Texture Direct + Soft clouds and Active Sky Next.
Hi your videos is very usefull for everyone, who wants fly via VATSIM, you are my teacher :-) I have two questions you are still using Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004? Can you make a tutorial video with FMC settings, using it etc. Thank you
Thank you! :) No, I have fully switched to Prepar3D now. Here's a video with some FMC stuff, doens't really matter whether you use FS2004 or another simulator for that: ruclips.net/video/i6Po9Y1rI1s/видео.html
It's not on the OFP, it's something that is calculated seperately. If you are using PFPX together with TOPCAT you can calculate the correct assumed temperature for the engines, but in my case I just make a wild guess ;)
You probably realised already bit the reason you weren't seeing the DME information is that you did not have it selected on the left panel of the glareshield (the one that has the map/plan+range selectors.) It's 6am so my memory isn't great just now to remember the name. Just move the adf/vor needles up to the vor mode.
You mean the VOR/ADF selector? I'll try next time to see if that makes a difference ;). On some ILSs you don't need to have it set to VOR to see the DME though, maybe it was different here or the scenery is just messed up.
AviationPro maybe it is different I don't know enough about it to say. I just pick up what I know from videos like this. I'm liking the production btw, it is very well done.
Nice video but too much Mistake but considerable and I suggest you please tell in every airport How Must FPS you Get. which Is better for us. and bro Keep uploading we are waiting for next video . Happy Journey
AviationPro btw bro tell me how much fps you get in eddf or eham ? and are you using orbx europe opeen LC or only orbx ftx global or any other orbx product and does it effect FPS ?

good job mate ;) ..I am a fan of your channel...honestly, I did learn flying using Vatsim from your yourtube channel
Thank you! Glad my videos have helped you out ;)
Nice video. Most of my doubts related to ATC talks got cleared watching this. Thanks.....
Thank you, glad it helped! :)
Leuke video weer! Heb nu de PMDG 777 gekocht, dat is even heel wat anders dan de freeware vliegtuigen. Ga zo door, deze video's zijn erg leerzaam!
Dankje! Jazeker, veel beter heh :)
AviationPro zeker wel! Vooral de instrumenten aan boord zijn erg prettig om mee te werken. De ingebouwde checklist is ook een handig hulpmiddel voor een beginner :P. Ik zat te twijfelen tussen de b737 en de b777 maar de instrumenten in de 777 zijn een stuk makkelijker te gebruiken. Zit er veel verschil tussen de 777 en de 747?
Ja, de 747 is weer iets realistischer en heeft minder automation ivm de 777, waardoor het eigenlijk leuker is om mee te vliegen.
Haha, als ik wat beter wordt in het vliegen ga ik de 747 zeker uitproberen! Ik had nog een vraagje over de 777. Als je wilt luisteren op een bepaalde frequentie in de radio panel kan het alleen met stapjes van 0.025. Bijvoorbeeld: ik ben getuned op EGKK_GND op 121.800, ik wil overstappen naar EGKK_TWR op 124.220 maar dat kan niet. Ik zit dan of op 124.225 of op 124.200. Hoe kan ik er voor zorgen dat ik de stapjes kleiner kan maken zodat ik ook per 0.005 kan switchen?
Dat kan niet in flight sim helaas, dan moet je gewoon 124.225 tunen en dan zit je automatisch ook op 124.220 als het goed is.
ANOTHER QUALITY VIDEO BY AVIATION PRO!! AWESOME!!
Thanks! :)
Eindelijk!!!!
Fantastische video
Jij moet meer abonees hebben
Je bent echt bijna net zo goed als matt davies.

"Net zo goed als Matt Davies".
Dat denk ik niet. Matt Davies is iemand die zijn simulator tweaks graag wilt laten zien. Hij skipt 80% van de vlucht en tijdens take-off en landing kijkt hij niet naar de instrumenten maar naar buiten.

love it very much! Best vatsim videos on youtube!!
Thanks! :)
Amazing video! Keep Going , you just got a new subscriber. Regards from Venezuela 😁👍👍
Thanks! ;)
Start using a checklist. you will not forget to do important stuff nor will you do things not in the correct order
All i can say is extremly great and realistic video exactly what i look for. Good luck in your dream of becoming a pilot.
Thank you, glad you liked it! :)
Nice vid! Currently doing a 10 hr flight from PHNL-YSSY in a 744ER
Thanks! Good luck!
Great video, again! Loved it till the last minute!
Goed bezig!
Thanks! ;)
Another fantastic Video I love the 747, Can't wait for the next video
+Bulldog Aviation Thank you! :)
Excellent video mate!! :D

Klopt, dankje! :) Hopelijk ging je eerste vlucht goed :)
Ja ging goed, er was na AMS geen Atc meer maar dat was niet zo heel erg. Veel gebruik gemaakt van jou tips en behulpzame video's 👍
Great video. I really loved the kind of briefing at the begin.
Thanks, glad you liked it! :)
Nice job man! You put much effort in your videos)
Thank you! :)

Super mooie video man! Hou trouwens van de 747 vids!!
Dankje! :)
This is TOP Video in your Chanel!!! :-)
Haha, thanks! :)
Thanks a lot, beautiful video, i'm kind of new on flying networks and it helps me a lot, thanks again :)
Thank you, glad it helps! :)
Best vid ever. I cant wait to get a gaming laptop for P3D
Thanks! :)
What do you use for the fpl? Also amazing video
Thanks! Simbrief.
I like your setup and videos. Very well done, Captain! :D
Thank you! :)
amazing first flight of the PMDG 747v3! cant wait to see another one!
Thanks! :)
Hey AviationPro, could you please do a full flight tutorial which resumes from after the first tutorial you did on the 747 for cold and dark? Would be really helpful
Hi, yes I might do that sometime when I have time, but for now such long videos are not planned.
SnazMC in the manuel there is a full flight toturial with everything you need to know
Leuke video. Mooie setup en heel informatief! Ga zo door! Als je tijd hebt, vlieg zeker hier beneden naar Curacao :)
Dankje! Ja, moet eigenlijk wel heh, met de KLM 747 ;)
Ja zeker :D
Great video. When I record my flights on my computer, the quality looks nothing like I see when flying and it's bad when I view it on Windows 10 video player. You can see it on my channel but the quality is not like your videos. I do not get it. I don't think it's the recorder for it looks the same with different recording softwares.
Please help. Anyone.
Thank you! What recording software are you using?
AviationPro OBS studio and had used Asus command
OBS Studio should work pretty well. Make sure you use the x264 encoder with proper settings.
Top video!
Thanks!
very nice video :) keep up the good work ;)
Thank you, will do! :)

All that taxiing time and you missed seeing "NO V SPD" on your PFD!!
What a fool I am!
yo thats me 21:20 my aircraft wouldnt stop and it it just pushed me off the taxi way i caint belive i was at same place as u at same time byw i love ur vids
Illuminati confirmed!
Haha, I see, better check your brakes before going out for a flight ;)
Great video as always. And those weather charts you get with simbrief flightplan or...?
Thanks! With simbrief ;)
And what airac are you using? Aerosoft navdata pro or Navigraph?
Navigraph
Alright. I've been searching for an answer on this the last couple days. Almost didn't sleep yesterday.
1st: How do you start on a parking lot with the plane? I keep starting in the middle of the runway.
2nd: How do you use all the buttons in the plane? When i use the 747-400 it's almost only the autopilot that works.

It's just the Dropbox app. So I upload my flight plans to Dropbox, and then using the Dropbox app on the iPad I can easily view the flight plan ;)

Another great video again!! Thanks a lot. This time it was especially nice to see you in full action!! Many happy landings!! ERwin
PS: What about a flight from Vienna to Innsbruck in winter?? (If there is any ATC around that area?)
Thank you! Yeah, I'm planning for some winter destinations now the winter season is coming up. I'd love to fly in the new snow effects of Prepar3D V4 and Innsbruck & Vienna are great airports indeed :).
Where did u get that auto pilot panel can u give me a link to it please thanks
cpflight.com
Awesome video, subbed!
Keep it up!!!
+GTAhmet Thanks!
More videos like this will be awesome.
Good job
+ 1 sub
Thanks! :)
Great video, I really enjoy it. I am just wondering which equipment do you use to make airplane turn right or left when you taxi? Is that old Logitech Extreme 3D Pro Joystick or the Yoke? I don't have a Joystick or Yoke, it makes difficult for me to taxi, So I have been thinking about buying one.
here are my two options : a very nice joystick or Yoke+Throttle+Rudder Pedals
is a Yoke+Throttle+Rudder Pedals combination able to make airplane turn left or right smoothly like you did on the ground or only a joystick has this function? please give me some advice. Thank you!!!
Thanks! I use the Logitech Joystick as steering tiller (that's the thing used to turn the nose gear left and right for taxi). I would personally go for the yoke and all its elements, because you can always use the rudder for turns during taxi like in GA aircraft.
Thank you very much for your advice :)
Great flight! Do you start your session from Cold & dark or otherwise?
Thanks! No, usually from the short-haul or long-haul states in the PMDG setup page in the FMC, so with systems running and APU and engines off.
Liked the video! I see that you are using the FMC for the push but unfortunately I missed the part where you set up the FMC for pushback. I'm flying the 737 but I always wonder how to figure out the correct distance for the FMC to push?
Thank you! I'm not using the FMC, I'm using GSX for all my pushbacks. I don't know what kind of distance to put in either, it's really a guess that might end up way wrong, so I don't like the default pushback feature. GSX will handle the pushback well for you! ;)
weer een mooie video ik ben zelf bezig om atc te worden op vatsim natuurlijk in amsterdam dus hoop je snel een keer tegen te komen op de netwerk
Dankje! Succes op VATSIM ;)
great video ..really enjoyed it.
Thank you! :)
Hey, what do you use to pan around the camera? Sorry, I'm new to P3D.
Use a checklist next time, helps with the small mistakes like the landing lights and altimeters. Anyway, a great video
Thanks! Yes, I know I should use checklists, but I simply cannot pay attention to checklists all the time and look down to read the checklist, while flying, explaining, listening to ATC, etc. It's not that easy to make such video. When I have a copilot with me, I do use checklists ;)
I loooove your videos also thanks because from you I've learnd how to fly on p3d please reply
This new PMDG's really beautiful glad you made me discover that. Thanks, nice videos. One more subscriber ;) ( PS : thanks for the tutorial also )
Thank you! You're welcome! :)
Thanks for the great video!
You're welcome! :)
Is the sound quality of the radio calls a worse on the recording? I listened back to a few of them a couple of times and there was just no way that I would've gotten any information out of them.
Maybe a little bit. I hear it through my headset without too much engine sounds and stuff, so that makes it better to understand for me.
Thank You for the video
Great !
Thanks, you're welcome! :)
Hey Aviation Pro,
Does the cockpit shake happen for all versions of the PMDG? because I am going to get the original one for fs2004.
Thanks!
No, their old products are not sold anymore by PMDG themselves and of course do not include the new shake effect that you see here. Thanks for watching!
I found copies that are being sold on Amazon. You're saying even those have no camera shake?
Enjoyed the video very much.
Thank you! :)
My brother flew for Westjet flying 737 800's out of Calgary and before that for the RCMP in the Twin Otter over the NWT and other parts of Northern Canada for 25 years.I visited him in Calgary in Dec. and we watched you review of Fly Tampa Amsterdam and you doing some flights in his movie room on a 10 foot screen. He thought that you you are doing a great job following the procedures of flying an Airliner in the real world of all the simmers I watch think you are doing the best. I am getting a new PC and will be giving him my PC So he can fly in and out of Schiphol in a Westjet pmdg 737 of course. By the way what AI traffic program do you use for P3D? Keep on flying.
Wow, thanks for sharing your story! :) Glad you guys liked it, and very nice to hear the feedback from a real world pilot! :). I am using World of AI together with vPilot for model matching, works very well. Thanks for watching! :)
Awesome video! How do you configure your axis for the flaps? Through FSUIPC?
Thank you! Yes, all via FSUIPC ;)
Can you tell me the steps to do so? I would like to do the same with my TQ6 go flight throttle, as it only works on the 737 currently :)
we all need an FO in the big birds, but what can you do? Well done, AP!
Thanks!
wow that's actually very smart of you to use a second keyboard. just wonder how do u bind they keys into the keyboard for example the LNAV VNAV ? do u got to the sim menu to bind them or?
Thanks! You can assign keyboard keys via the FMC of the 747, there are option pages where you can assign various things like MCP and EFIS buttons/knobs.
AviationPro does this work on the pmdg 777?
Yes, for all PMDG aircraft you can assign keys.
AviationPro so I can just plug in another keyboard and assign keys to it? do I have to unbind keys from my main keyboard so that the keys won't interfere when I press em?
The Delta MD80 in Amsterdam ROFL nice vid man but don't forget those Vspeeds lol
Hoe kun je tegen mensen praten zijn het computers of echt spelers je bengt deze vod echt in de sfeer van de vliegtuig je verdiend meer subs👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks! Dat zijn echte mensen die als verkeersleider fungeren, zie vatsim.net
great flight. really like your videos!
Thank you! :)
Hey AP, really like your vids, and I have a question: I feel quite comfortable about going on to VATSIM, but do you need to do and have all of the stuff that you do in your how to use VATSIM videos?
And also, I have the Logitech G Extreme joystick-whatever the fuck it's called, and I just wanna know if you would recommend that saitek yoke.
AND (sorry for all my questions lol), what throttle do you use, and what does it cost?
Thanks! I'm not sure what you really mean, but anyways: you need at least a flight simulator of course, like FSX. You can use the default airplanes if you want. I'm using Saitek yoke and throttles for my flight controls, but any joystick is also fine.
one question though. why are you keeping your hand on the throttle after Vr? ;)
Yeah I was distracted by the fact that the V speeds weren't on there, but normally I take them off the throttle at V1 of course ;)
AviationPro Ok seems logical. Just a small idea: what about a subscriber sim meetup? would be awesome to see the community fly together
I use FSX and I want my clouds and the sky become as dark as in this video. Can you help me or can you recommend a good ENB? And thanks for the really nice video! :)
Thanks! I don't use any ENB. I do use Real Environment Xtreme Texture Direct with Soft Clouds, that's probably it.
Some advice dude for the approach would be to put a 10NM and 4/5NM ring in from the landing runway dependent on IFR or VFR conditions for low drag CDA operations. You can also put a 25NM ring in from the MSA reference point for really good airman-ship as well. Nice video otherwise, really like this new addon ;-)
Thanks! Yes, I sometimes do that, sometimes not ;)
Good day! I love your channel and I’ve learnt a lot from you and your channel.
A couple of weeks ago I got the PMDG 737 Pack and everything works well except one thing, whenever I try to start the engines only engine one starts wherever I do. It’s so weird.
Do you have any tips on hot to fix?
Thank you! :) Make sure you follow the proper engine start procedure. Sounds like you don't have all packs off before engine start.
AviationPro thank you!
Hi sir,
first of all I would like to say that your profile looks amazing because you are obviously big fan and enthusiast of aviation. I like your videos which help me a lot to get into the world of flight simulation. Thank you for that!
I have a simple question. I tried to find help on the internet but there is nothing about my problem. Either I am first man in the world who met this trouble or I am stupid :D On your videos I can see a lot of different types of aircraft with different liveries, but my P3D shows just white aircraft or default liveries of Orbit Airlines although the aircraft is for example SAS. But what is worse is the problem with type of aircraft. B738 looks as Regional Jet (probably Bombardier CRJ-200ER). When Mr. Michael O’Leary bought instead of B738 CRJ200? :D Unbelievable :) If you have just simple answer, please write to comments or send me via e-mail vnts@centrum.cz. Thank you in advance. Have a nice day :)
Martin
Hi Martin, thanks a lot! That's indeed how it looks in the default way. What you should do is do something called 'model matching'. Search for 'Vpilot and model matching' here on youtube and you will find some useful videos. Basically you have to install a freeware or payware AI addon so that you have a whole bunch of aircraft types and airlines that are used for AI. vPilot will then recognize these and match them to callsigns as you fly on VATSIM.
Great, I will try to find recommended videos and SW. Thank you, sir :) I was sure that you will know what to do ;) M.
Problem solved :-) Thank you again! M.
Exactly what i wanted! Thank you!
You're welcome!
Hi! I also have the problem with the QNH and Active Sky. Did you discover what happened?
I have no idea. I switched tabs within Active Sky, then went back into the simulator, and it was correct, very weird. Still have to make some more flights to see what is the exact problem.
Yeah, so strange! But I have the problem with the PMDG B77L. I always end up using the altimeter calibration button 'B' on final app :(
AviationPro Did you set your baro on both captain and Co pilot?? It could be a reason for the wrong minimums call
Ian Nottingham I didn't. Thanks, I will try next time I fly :)
Yes, I believe they are all synced by default anyways, and when checking the video I believe the pressure was equal on both sides. (even though the first officer's side was still set to Inches instead of hPa.
Goede video! Voor welke maatschappij studeer je nu? Ik ga binnen een paar jaar ook voor piloot dus ben al bezig met simulator :) Veel succes nog 👍
AviationPro, How are you flying from EHAM flytampa without VAS issues,I have tried twice to fly this route you did and I oomed while taxing. Is there a fix or some kinda workaround to make this work?
By using Prepar3D and just not use too high settings ;).
AviationPro Thanks for the prompt reply,sorry for asking too much please send me your p3d low cfg settings might give it try one more time. Cheers... ;)
Hi, great vid!
What app are you using on the iPad?
Thanks! See description ;)
Thanks, but I mean the flight plan
Thanks, but I mean the flight plan
That's created using Simbrief ;)
Awesome!! Love it!
Thanks!
Very nice video as always. What is the name of your autopilot panel?
Thanks! It's the CPflight MCP737EL
Thanks, you got yourself a new Patron (commercial pilot). I'm a pilot myself, PPL, I fly a Cessna 172 from EHGG and want to learn IFR flying in the near future. And what is a better place to start IFR training at home using a flightsim on Vatsim. Learned a lot from you and decided to support your channel. Very good content so far and I except nothing less in future video's. Keep up the good work!
Goed weekend!
Thanks, much appreciated! :) Absolutely, VATSIM is a great learning environment, it should help out quite a bit in the real world. Thanks for supporting the channel! :) En een goed weekend ook :)
May I know which P3D license you purchase?
How much have you spent on the yoke and all the other peripherals?
Not that much, because I got most of it second handed which makes it all a lot cheaper.
ik vind dit jouw kanaal geweldig... maar heb een vraagje.. als ik op FSX ben.. en wil mn vlucht plannen.. krijg ik mn FMC niet open.. zou je mij kunnen zeggen hoe en wat ik moet doen om m open te krijgen.. alvast bedank
What app do you use on your iPad to the left of your yoke? Thanks
Dropbox (for charts and flight plan viewing) and VATMAP.
Prima film! Thx.
Dankje!
Great video as always your channel videos are fantastic,I like the way you do your tutorials very in formative and very helpful keep up the good work. ..
What app are you using on your iPad for viewing OFP and charts it's really cool,if you don't mind can give it a try. Thanks
Thank you! I'm just using Dropbox to which I upload all my charts and flight plans ;)
Thank you,from me too man. Great instruction on that start up video.
You're welcome! :)
Which light you use in rex 4?Anyway good job!
Thanks! No theme in particular, I just generate random themes based on the current weather.
AviationPro Ok,thanks for the reply sir. :P
Do you update your nav data/airac cycles regularly? If so how?
Yes, using a Navigraph FMS Data subscription, check out navigraph.com
AviationPro is there anything besides navigraph that is free that I can use?
Not really, unfortunately this is something you will have to pay for.
Echt een top video Aviationpro! Erg professioneel ook! Een vraagje, zou je je P3DV3 settings met ons willen delen? Je krijgt goede fps en ik wil graag weten hoe.....
Dankje! Ja, daar heb ik al een video van: ruclips.net/video/keLvGjhCDc4/видео.html
just a quick question I hope you andwer me. I fly on vatsim, mostly on southeast Asia. At southeast asia I can request IFR clearance on Center (when there is no Twr or Approach or ground). Yesterday I fly on Europe with center Online, I requested IFR clearance on center. He told me that he's only for route. He didn't give me IFR clearance. Which leads me to a confusion. at Europe and USA can I request IFR clearance on center?
Maybe you contacted Eurocontrol, which only provides ATC for FL245 and above. Usually you can request clearance at center, but only for those that are kind of part of an airport. Like Amsterdam Radar, you can contact for all ATC in Amsterdam and for some regional airports in the Netherlands. But you can imagine that some radar controllers cannot control every single airport in their area, they usually have listed in their controller info which airports they do control. Like Langen Radar East will not control Düsseldorf, but it does control Stuttgart. And if in doubt, you can always ask.
Alrightman, Thanks! Nice Video Btw!
Could I get a list of your addons? Your P3D looks very "clean". I like it!
Thanks! I don't have a full list, but I leave most settings at default. Main addons I have are ORBX Global, Ultimate Terrain Europe, REX Texture Direct + Soft clouds and Active Sky Next.
Hi your videos is very usefull for everyone, who wants fly via VATSIM, you are my teacher :-) I have two questions you are still using Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004? Can you make a tutorial video with FMC settings, using it etc. Thank you
Thank you! :) No, I have fully switched to Prepar3D now. Here's a video with some FMC stuff, doens't really matter whether you use FS2004 or another simulator for that: ruclips.net/video/i6Po9Y1rI1s/видео.html
Thank you
Hi I had a question about the SEL Temp. where in the ofp can you locate it?
It's not on the OFP, it's something that is calculated seperately. If you are using PFPX together with TOPCAT you can calculate the correct assumed temperature for the engines, but in my case I just make a wild guess ;)
which headset are you using ?
Best regards
Lucas
Logitech PC960 USB Headset
Nice video man..
Thanks!
I want to know that PMDG 747 v3 is a free update who owns the legacy versions or one needs to buy again who owns the version 1 ?
It’s a completely new product, so you have to buy it again I’m afraid
Leuke video weer.. wel eens bij de boeing fabriek geweest?
Dankje! Ja, in 2008 was dat, toen werden de eerste 787s zo'n beetje in elkaar gezet. Erg gaaf! :)
AviationPro Nice ben ook van plan eens te gaan kijken
You probably realised already bit the reason you weren't seeing the DME information is that you did not have it selected on the left panel of the glareshield (the one that has the map/plan+range selectors.)
It's 6am so my memory isn't great just now to remember the name.
Just move the adf/vor needles up to the vor mode.
You mean the VOR/ADF selector? I'll try next time to see if that makes a difference ;). On some ILSs you don't need to have it set to VOR to see the DME though, maybe it was different here or the scenery is just messed up.
AviationPro maybe it is different I don't know enough about it to say. I just pick up what I know from videos like this.
I'm liking the production btw, it is very well done.
Nice video but too much Mistake but considerable and I suggest you please tell in every airport How Must FPS you Get. which Is better for us. and bro Keep uploading we are waiting for next video . Happy Journey
Thank you!
AviationPro btw bro tell me how much fps you get in eddf or eham ? and are you using orbx europe opeen LC or only orbx ftx global or any other orbx product and does it effect FPS ?
About 40 to 45. ORBX does not really affect fps for me.
AviationPro Thanks man
