- As we have reached a good round number with our Back To Basics Series: I thought it would be a good idea to recap our previous lessons and do a flight utilising everything we have learned so far.

As a professional pilot for 50 years plus! I have a technique suggestion! When intercepting guidance from
an HSI place the heading curser over the top of the course line that is displaced. IE. Desired inbound course set on HSI of 360! The course guidance needle is to the right with a full scale deflection. the top of that deflected needle is sitting under the 030 of the HSI! move the heading bug to 030 to fly and intercept the 360 degree course as you are left of the desired course.
You are correct in verifying the ILS frequency, with modern day avionics Ie the G1000 when the localizer frequency is tuned it automatically checks the identifier (morse Code) and displays the Identifier! this verifies the proper localizer and that the ILS is working properly.
Wonderful tip, thanks.
This entire Basics series is for me the most helpful of the entire YT world ! Many thanks to you....✈🛫♥
Wonderful, much appreciated 😎
Awesome series of basics. This really has helped me understand how things work and I'm looking forward to be playing with a bit more purpose and realism. Hotas one onboard on Xbox x. Looking forward to new videos!
Join us on one of our Livestreams ;)
Good idea showing how the individual lessons seamlessly integrate. BTW I can't take credit for suggesting preloading the ILS frequency as I'm only now learning about ILS, VOR navigation, etc. watching your videos
I thought it was you who mentioned it - regardless you get the credit ;)
All you need in one video. Thank you!
You're welcome!
@@Huddison Can you fly together in co-pilot mode?
@@Epi88 I believe there is a way; something I may explore in the future.
@@Huddison I hope we might fly together some day and have fun!
Subbed :)
Great video. This was a good training. Thank you and keep up the good work you do!
Many thanks Tony.
Excellent video. Thanks SO much!
You're welcome Noel.
Great lesson, took me a couple of days before I finished with the Manchester run. Needed to get that first part drilled into me. Today I did the Manchester run and what a ball that was. Its really blowing over there, I was constantly on that heading bug. When I was approaching the Runway and still in autopilot I checked my external camera and the plane was pointing to the runways 2 o'clock, quit a sight but landed safely.
That sounds like you had great fun 😉
im going to go through these tutorials very well done. thank you
Mav
Always great to receive these kind of comments.
Excellent tutorial as usual. Thanks…
Cheers Shane.
Very nicely done! FYI, press the heading knob to set the heading bug to your current heading.
Thanks, I often overlook that
@@Huddison I've got the HDG button on my Bravo TQ set to do it with a long press - very convenient!
Great video. Thanks.
You are most welcome.
fantastic!
Thanks!
Thanks!
Thank you too! Very much appreciated :)
Very nice video as always, thanks. The point where you "cycle through" the VOR1/2/GPS to get the glide slope to change from "NO GS" to green diamond seems to be a recent bug in the sim or the NXi - it never used to need this but now i find it will never show the GS unless you cycle the CDI or swap NAV1 freq out then back in or press APPR multiple times. Hopefully it will get fixed soon.
Yes let's hope so soon.
I have observed the same issues, and the APR button seldom works on a timely basis. Another minor bug is that "VOR2" or "LOC2" is not displayed when switching through the CDI. You know when you actually are in VOR2 or LOC2 by the two-lined arrow, but it still says VOR1 or LOC1.
@@tomjanzen9278 Yes I've noticed that too Tom. It can be distracting at best.
Thanks so much for a great video. Do you or have you thought of doing anything on Little NavMap? Your videos are so informative, would love to see a series on this addon program. Thanks again.
Good call Howard - I was thinking of digging into that addon.
@@Huddison I hope you do. I find it very helpful even though I have a lot to learn. About everything.
@@tomjanzen9278 We all still have lots to learn Tom ;)
Very helpful!! On preparation, when I load or load/activate the shown approach, i see all the enroute waypoints but NO altitudes (just blank lines). I just went on flying the route, setting target altidude on 2500ft. On final after switching to NAV1 and selecting APP button, it din't lock on the glideslope as well. Any ideas? Thnx!
One thing that comes to my mind: did you line up with the LOC1 Nav lines? This later video gives you a good description of that (in the later parts): ruclips.net/video/nMQTlhZ4Ta0/видео.html
Hudds ... Is that B button on Hotas or Controller for resetting position on ground. What is the action it controls ?
Brilliant videos by the way. Gets the grey matter activated.
It basically gives you the correct reading for your current altitude above sea level - 'reset altimeter'.
Sorry Hudds ... Is it the "B" button on Hotas or Controller allocated to reset altimeter
Hi again Hudds.
Been practicing flying around Ireland using the Garmin NXI and the advice you gave.
Just wondering what the significance of approach and altitude hold buttons on the set.
Also is Localiser (green) used for what approaches ?
I hope I've understood your questions correctly: the LOC can be used for ILS approaches (similar to what I showed in the video).
If flying an Autopilot ILS (LNAV or similar), you can use the APR button so that the autopilot follows the Glideslope down to the runway.
@@Huddison Many thanks. On a number of occasions under CDI I switched on OBS and the aircraft flew all over the place. When is OBS used ?
@@Huddison Hudds they never seem to have sorted out the left/ right map panning on the Garmin NXI ?
Hi again Hudds. Trust you're keeping well.
Just noticed that on the main Garmin screen on the left that there's a tab called "Nearest". I've clicked into it and scrolled around using the FMS button but it doesn't seem I can activate a Nearest airport to fly to. Any advice or thoughts would be most welcome.
Come and ask about this in the Discord, as I remember a recent-ish discussion on it.
You can't activate an airport with the nearest button, but you can scroll to the ILS for the airports (if they have one) & it will enter it directly into your comm radio frequencies.
It also gives you the heading and distance. I'm aiming to make a video on this & other features of the G1000, this week.
When you choose "Activate Approach", is that the same as hitting the Approach button on the AutoPilot?
Yes.
im having trouble with the flaps not wanting to work before take off cant set them . but once in air they will work could that be a bug are you having the same problem and also the approach button sometimes comes on and sometimes dont. and when it does the green glideslope diamond comes down but does not drop the altitude when it meets up with the autopilot set altitude
I have a feeling that you may have some assistance options turned on, which might explain why you're having problems with flaps.
Come into the Discord to discuss your approach issues; we can better help you there.
@@Huddison Yes you were correct I did turn some assistance off the flaps work now lol but the SIM still is buggy because some of the auto pilot buttons work when they want to I know it’s not my system for sure Have a RTX 3080 any suggestions I might have to join your discord
@@richardPalmisano Do join the Discord, it's easier to help from there.
Nice vid, but why are you using the heading bug and not NAV with AP before the approach?
This video is recapping on everything in the series thus far, so I was demonstrating various techniques you could use.
You may use which ever AP functions you feel most comfortable with :)
@@Huddison Indeed. Like the series though, I watched most of it last night, especially liked the the SimBrief episode. Always good to get another take on things with this flight sim ;)
Hi, Huddison, very interesting recap! Well worth the time. As an aside, I recently received a couple of emails from your discord channel saying that you'd mentioned me in a couple of your posts. Unfortunately, I can't find them as discord doesn't seem to be capable of highlighting your comments. Were your comments important?
Thanks Chris. What is your Discord alias?
@@Huddison Canuk UK (I believe) - I used to live in Vancouver
I don't remember sending you messages in Discord Chris - it might have been addressed to @everyone.
Well this one got through!!!!!
