This add-on is awesome. For those who like old school jetliners this is a must! I love flying these older jetliners. Great tutorial. This series is great! Thanks a lot.
I download it and installed. I had not time to fly today. I was shocked by the cockpit. This is the best looking cockpit by far. The used look. The lights of the lamps. The Instruments Illumination, the sounds.. I would wish the TFDI MD11 would be om that level. The nice idea with the book as "tablet". The possibility to use INS or modern GPS. The fantastic assists by FO/FE. I love the B777, i love the MD11. But this is the top MSFS Aircraft of 2024.
I agree! Though I have never bought a study level or even semi-study level aircraft, before this one, so I have no base of comparison. I’d still like the MD-11 & the 737’s, but I figure let’s see how I do with this bird before I spend the higher amount of money. I feel $40 USD is very reasonable for this aircraft, and I am very impressed with what I’ve seen thus far!
@@B3burner dont bother getting the tfdi been the biggest waste of money i have spent on anything on the sim so far its about £50 overpriced and nothing special the texturing is laughable on the exterior.
I love that these older model aircraft’s are now being put into the Sim so that us pilots who want a challenge with older avionics or just like flying older planes were allowed to do now that people like a FSS and PMDG are stepping up
Great video (as always). I chose to use the binding pattern Throttle 1--->engine#1, Throttle 2--->#2 and #3 to allow for use of differential thrust to help on the ground (turns, etc...), although with tail-mounted engines, I'm not sure that really matters. Anyway, thanks for all your great tutorial videos!
Can't start flying this until next week, looking forward to it! Also very much looking forward to the pax version, as there were many more airlines that flew the pax version than the cargo.
@@TheSAfreak over time as I learn a lot of the flow perhaps, but it's a three person aircraft and it's recommended you use the Crew Manager (some items are done by the flight engineer when you should be busy flying the jet)
Great video Luke as always. Followed the flow up until taxi, made sure brakes off, but the aircraft would not move even after excessive amount of power applied. ?
@@BritishAvgeek Thanks for your reply mate, I ended up restarting flight and all was well again. I did have the sim running for some time and was jumping back and forth between your video and the sim, whether this had anything to do with it??
Great video thank you for the tutorial, I am having trouble capsuring the gps in the flight plan some perhaps i am not setting the plane configuration out, I was wondering if you can tell me the navigation settings in the plane before take off ? Thank you!
@@anthonyvallillo422 you can but I have 2 throttle detents so I have the first detent for spoiler and the fourth for flaps. The gadget is GSX Pro for push back
@@BritishAvgeek I use the left axis for spoiler, the next three for throttles, number 5 is blank and the right axis for flaps. One really nice feature on this 727 is that the flaps move in increments, which means that you do not need a flap track insert for the fifth axis, but can merely listen for the click sound as the flap lever goes into its detent.
Will buy this but not from Aerosoft.....Problems with recent purchases from Aerosoft , never again. Any idea if this a/c will be sold on the marketplace. Cheers.
@@B3burner when you generate a flight plan on simbrief it'll generate the OFP on your website browser - either print it off or keep it on the screen and just remember the sequence of waypoints as you insert it
@@BritishAvgeek Thank you for your quick reply. Oh ok. Is Sim Brief already included by default in MSFS 2020. Sorry for the rudimentary questions- I usually fly small planes VFR and search for airports by sight. 😮 I need to learn how to do this.
Instruments like the attitude indicator have a device that vibrates the housing to reduce stiction. What you're hearing is the fast tapping sound it makes.
@@aresito22 Google it, all actual flying 727 have a weather Radar in the middle and a Honeywell GNS XLS or Alternative a modern Garmin on the Dashboard. Btw FSS add the honeywell in there last update😛 the Civ5 is really great, but even this Versions have a weather Radar and not this empty Console.
@@msaatric8669 the crew manager device is there to do the work of the flight engineer - which as a pilot you wouldn't do. It'll take weeks and weeks to learn all the flows and realistically some items will be done whilst you're meant to be flying the aircraft. I may do additional episodes covering a few extra elements over time but I won't cover all of it, there's too much for my little brain 😅

And with the Honeycomb Bravo setup! You are the man!
Great to have a tutorial the second it releases!🔥
@@MMX_Spotter I spent all of yesterday filming them! All three episodes covering a full flight will be out today
@@BritishAvgeekappreciated
@@BritishAvgeekVery appreciative.

I seem to remember you can get your coordinates from the telemetry in Navigraph. It’s not on by default so you just need to add it.
@@obriets you certainly can - that's a great point 🙂
Thanks.
Great video as usual! Do you plan to do a video without the use of virtual FE? To go through more of what involved with the FE?

Great video Luke as always. Followed the flow up until taxi, made sure brakes off, but the aircraft would not move even after excessive amount of power applied. ?
Hmm, not sure! Chocks still attached? Or an issue with pushback getting stuck?

@@kubar22 shouldn't have any impact really.
I noticed when using GPS nav with the GTN750, I can't lock on to the localiser. Just wondering whether it's a bit buggy, as have tried several times.

Is the Honeycomb Bravo settings the same in Thrustmaster Quadrant ???????
Does the CIVA accuracy drift? One thing i missed about the FSX concorde was that you had to know how to alighn it in flight
@@andysim232 apparently yes but I haven't seen it
is there any other way to find my coordinates in MSFS other than using navigraph?
Generate a route via simbrief and look at the OFP / Flight Plan - it'll have all the coordinates
The Bravo can be set up so each engine has its own axis. BTW, what are you using for pushback? I don’t recall a gadget like that in my msfs
@@anthonyvallillo422 you can but I have 2 throttle detents so I have the first detent for spoiler and the fourth for flaps. The gadget is GSX Pro for push back

Can you fly IFL group livery from KPTK. They are still operating this type.
Will buy this but not from Aerosoft.....Problems with recent purchases from Aerosoft , never again. Any idea if this a/c will be sold on the marketplace. Cheers.
Same here. As per fselite it will be available from Contrail on 13 August. From Marketplace you could be waiting months.
@@paulwebb5111 yeah marketplace will be months - as I mentioned in my preview video a few days back, it'll be available on contrail in a week's time
Thanks for the tutorial!can I ask if it uses in-game verification in the form of an in-game activation code like Ejet?
@@sili780 yes it does
@@BritishAvgeek thank!😀
I bought it and it won't let me activate it within the simulator, I enter the order number and it won't let me do anything. Any solution?
@@JesusJimenez-tw5mz Trying to give feedback to the official, I also see that some users have problems with this aspect of orders.
My APU is not starting on version 1.02
how are the fps compared to other planes? I can for example fly the PMDG 737 fluidly but not the DC-6B or the Transal
Wonderful tutorial, sir. THANK YOU !
Any chance yhou could share your PC specs with us, please ?
If I am not subscribed to NaviGraph, then what do I use instead?

7:22 8:30 what is this background buzzing i keep hearing?
@@soviet_salsa2983 it'll be the instruments clicking away, it's constant but due to the age of the aircraft

the middle console looks extremly empty, where is the FMC and Weather Radar ??

FMC 🤣🤣🤣
I'd prefer -15 engines. The -9 in this program are a bit weak.
Was expecting proper startup from cold&dark state and I'm disappointed tbh. Please redo this vid.
