Really appreciate the time and effort that you put into these videos. Very informative. Its so easy to take for granted today the amount of instruction and shared knowledge that we have access to on youtube, forums, and other sources. So thank you for sharing your knowledge and understanding with us.
As always, masterfully voiced and explained. Thank you so much for all the effort. Special bonus for me is as you picked LOWW as my home town for the example. ❤
This may sound stupid but. After loading flight plan and exporting to msfs what happens next. How do you get to having your Aircraft on the gate ready to go. I think i have learned the wrong way round he he . Thanks. Great tutorial.
Thanks a lot. In the "straight-in landing" window, I still dont understand the difference between the different figures being written. In you example, you have for CAT II, aircraft type C, the following information: RA 97' DA(H) 700'(100') What is the difference between these 3 figures 97, 700 & 100 ? Which value do I need to enter in the FMS under RADIO or BARO ? Thanks again
Auto pilot will only climb to the altitude you tell it to. Same with the STAR, it will not 'read' the charts for you and fly it altitude automatically.
Excellent, concise video! Is that decision on which category is rwy. A vs. B dependent on Metar report so wrt. visibility? I read there is a special certification pilots have to pass for categorization of landings, that's more complex in real world than as it looks to us. Ty, perfectly explained Gavin.
The LOC ONLY approach had a descent angle of 3.05°. This is a bugger. Because you can’t set 3.05° on the FPA. But, importantly it’s subtly different to a normal ILS where the G/S is working. In practise, you’d have to set 3.1° on the FPA and just constantly monitor it and correct it on the final descent to the runway. This slight difference isn’t always present when you compare a normal ILS to the LOC only approach. It’s worth being aware of though. 👍 The difference between Cat C and Cat D aircraft is their approach speed over the threshold (VaT). The cockpit height is irrelevant. A faster aircraft needs a slighter higher minimum because it’s travelling across the ground faster and descending at a faster rate. So, it needs a higher minima to accommodate the additional height loss it could have should it go around at minimums. 👍
Another question : I've noticed that there are several ILS25x approaches (ILS25RZ, ILS25Z) ... and depending on the one you choose, the MCDU will propose a different list of available STARS. (I've noticed this when flying to EBBR with RW25L in use, choosing for ILS25LZ gives me a different list of STAR than if I select ILS25LY. So my question how do we know which ILS25Lx (Z or Y) we need to select. Today I know that if I'm coming from the south-east to EBBR, I need to choose ILS25LY and not ILS25LX.
ILS Z is the main one used. Y is used in the event that an navigation aid (VOR NDB etc) is unserviceable, requiring you to use the alternate ILS Approach.
@@Easyjetsimpilot Thanks a lot Gavin. But sorry, I invite you to go on EBBR and analyse ILS25 Left STARS. Your answer seems not to be correct with what I see or I can be wrong.
@@eaucalme1 it's easier to explain on the Discord server, as we can show charts. But the ILS Z is always the preferred option. You then however, have to select the correct IAF (VIAS)
Really clear and detailed description, at a pace not difficult to follow. Thank you. May I suggest making the Mouse pointer larger so jumps can be followed easier particularly when using tablets. Once again excellent.

HEY !! you are making this stuff easier to understand. KEEP THIS UP!!!! Bravo and awesome!!!!
Awesome clear description of charts,helped me a lot.Thanks 👍🏼
Great video. Very helpful. Thank you.
You're welcome!
What I've been looking for!

I need to make a tutorial on this as it's difficult to explain in a message. If you're on our discord, drop me a message 👍
@@Easyjetsimpilot discord sensors too many people
Holding Pattern is available in the mcdu of fbw a320
Beautifully done, well-explained.. Thank you for the hardwork man! :)
Very informative, thanks
Excellent ! So will you engage auto pilot directly or manage altitude and climb rate manually for the SID ?
Auto pilot will only climb to the altitude you tell it to. Same with the STAR, it will not 'read' the charts for you and fly it altitude automatically.
When are you continuing the flight from Maine?

Some airports require pilots to undergo special training before being able to land/depart there (Innsbruck, Tivat etc)
@@Easyjetsimpilot Right, not talking about real flying if you were...but I did some landings before in Fsx and X- plane 11, a few years ago.
Excellent- thanks mate

Just wondering... Is navigraph sim use only or are they accurate for real world use?
Sim use only.
Bravo!!! Mate
Hello, what FBW installor are you using?
The latest one available from their website.
@@Easyjetsimpilot of the >Stable, >Development, or >Experimental?

@@Easyjetsimpilot Maybe you could take for your next airport EBBR as example ;-)
@@Easyjetsimpilot I put it on discord with the graphics ILS25L LOC Y and ILS25L LOC Z
You also need to say how to get to that charts as mine doesn't come up with any charts even when searching it just shows me where it is on the map
These are Navigraph charts which is a subscription service.
@@Easyjetsimpilot yes I'm subscribed to Navi charts the airac cycle etc
What and when do you put in the baro or radio?
This is the Decision Altitude (DA) in the BARO and the Decision Height in the RADIO (only if doing an autoland)
i have a question where do i find the baro on a chart ?
That's the DA number (A = Altitude)
@@salokin1 thank youuuuuuuu
what is the game called can you download on a pc and do you have pay for it and how much is it.
Yes to all questions and it starts at £60.00
