PMDG 737-700 for MSFS - Tutorial 10: Cruise
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 1 май 2022
- Hi all, I'm a PMDG tech team member and real life 737 pilot. Here is my next video in the 737 tutorial series.
In this tutorial we are going to looking at the cruise part of the flight. I apologize for pausing the sim for most of the part, there was really more to explain than time available on this short flight.
The video has been taken using a pre-release beta version of the product, so you can expect to see some issues that will be fixed before release. There's no need to point those out as the team will be aware and working on them already. For example the trim sound is not yet implemented.

These tutorials are not designed as absolute beginner tutorials. It is expected that the viewer already has basic experience with airliners and knows the basics how to operate an aircraft.
Instead these tutorials will focus on the 737NG as an aircraft and the particularities of how to operate it.
I'll be closing this introduction by saying that I'm not a professional RUclipsr or Streamer quite yet and these videos are my very first that actually get more than a hundret clicks. I have never before created such content so bear with me for doing beginner mistakes.
I record straight from the sim without any fancy stuff going on in the background.

Thank you for all the effort with your tutorials, it is very helpful to get to know the 737 better
Very useful PLOC consideration there - had never thought of that before. Brilliant work Emi great videos.
Many thank's again, I have seen this kind of so much quality in explainations, hopefully you are here !
Thank you very much for another great video. I have been flying the PMDG 737 since the days of FS2004, and I guess I was doing Ok flying from A to B without problems. But I have leaned something new on every single tutorial you have published. It will definitely change the way I fly the 737 when it comes out for MSFS.
Cheers!
Many thanks for your professional approach to the subject. As a professional pilot, you provide so much interesting information and curiosities that are very difficult to find in one place. I've watched every previous video, I'm going to watch the next one, and of course I'm waiting for the 737 from PMDG.
Great useful tutorial 👍 Keep up the good work, these are great resources for learning 👏👏👏
Thanks as usual for the very well done video!
Once again, very informative! Thank you :)
Fantastic information, I'm looking forward to implementing some of these technics! Thankyou...
very good instruction of manual flight thanks very much
I'm watching your tutorial from beginning to the episode, it's great, thank you for your dedication and time, it's amazing👍👍👍
Thank you so much, I hope you're learning something! :)
Wunderbar!
Danke

Very good tutorials!
Awesome video! Can you make a G/A tutorial after you finished the series with the normal procedures?
Yes, definitely!
Once again, a very good video, thank you for your efforts.
Im sure that this series will be a massive help when the 737 becomes available
I surely hope so!
Thanks!
Thank you so much for your support Lee!
Dear Emanuel, thanks a lot for another great video and the whole channel, I really enjoy the detailed information you share. Please clarify if it is the rule to set transition level 1000 feet higher than stated in the chart. At 11:18 you set 6000 feet, and mentioned transition layer.
Hi, the transition layer needs to be at least 1000ft, so the actual TL will depend on the QNH.
In real life the TL will always be broadcasted on the ATIS so you don't need to worry with how to calculate it.
In the sim make it easy: QNH 1013 or higher: 1000ft Transition layer.
QNH 1012 or less: 2000
Thank you! And if we have variable transition level in charts, for instance
Trans level:
FL050
FL060 if pressure is less than 996 hPa (747 mm)
FL070 if pressure is less than 960 hPa (720 mm)
will in that case transition level and transition layer both depend on actual QNH or there will be some differences?

Great vidéo !! One question about the ILS category, you say that the 737 is a class charly category airplane but is the 737ng able to do a category IIIc landing ? why do you choose the I ILS category and not the II or the III ? Thanks for your answer.
Hi, the class C category does not refer to ILS'ses, but to the approach speed. There are so many different catetorys that are all named a, b, c, d, e and so on that refer to different things. I should have made it clearer, sorry.
If you use the DEV mode pause, no fuel will be used ;)
4:00 did you mean to say "its a tailwind" not headwind? travelling westbound and wind coming from east?
Good spot, you're 100% right.
Hi, again many thanks for all those wonderfull tutorials. Sometimes simbrief plans Step Climbs For Example : FL STEPS LFPO/0370/LUVAL/0390/SPL/0190 , how do you handle this , and use the FMC to plan this kind LVL chg
Wait until the FMC OPT reaches the step level, request your new level from ATC and dial it into the MCP.
Once you then press ALT I TV it'll start the climb and will adjust the FMC cruise level.
Don't forget to update the FLT ALT on the cabin pressure computer on the overhead.
@@A330Driver Thanks . I understand. So, what is the "Step" field made for (upper right on the CRZ page ) ? I tried to enter the 1st step as the CRZ alt , then if i enter the next step in this field, the FMC seems to calculate things for me , ( shows distance and a s/c point on the route , which according to documentation stands for step climb)
Do you plan to make a video on how to read navigraph charts? What to look for, what they mean, ...
I might do that one day. If you watch my briefing tutorials you will already see how to use the charts to prepare your takeoff and landing,
@@A330Driver yes, in this video you show the arrival how you take the data. I liked it, that's why I was asking if you would make a video going deeper into it, but you are the master, as you think is best. I follow you at my own pace 🤗
Just curious, as a real airline pilot how are you able to manage your time to create so much great content for flight simulation?
Oh there's a lot of free time available during the rest periods.
Yesterday for example I landed at 1 o'clock at night, but today my work started only at 16:45 so I had the whole morning and noon available.
Do you have a broad time until the release date? Like weeks, months?
PMDG aiming for next weekend
Exactly as Arash says. However stay tuned on the pmdg forums, over there you'll always learn the latest news.
3:27 When loading my SimBrief flight plan, the system seems to calculate another Cruise FL. Am I supposed to accept that ?
The only reason it may do that is if there's a constraint on your route that is higher than the cruise level entered. Make sure to review the SID and STAR and route and make a proper decision.
I wonder to what extent the released product will resemble the real world plane. Or to narrow my question a bit more: Which major systems/ functions will NOT be available right from the start? But I'm sure you won't be able to talk about that now 😅
As far as I can tell the only major system that's not implemented is CPDLC and that's mainly because it's not possible due to Asobo restrictions.
Yes, I know some other planes have it, but they are made in a simpler programming language, in which it would not have been possible to make something as complex as the 737.
@@A330Driver Wow, that's amazing! Thank you for the info 🤩
It would be great to simulate during a sandstorm in Dubai/Jeddah/ 🇦🇪, 🇸🇦 etc and landing during a Monsoon in Mumbai 🇮🇳 etc
I don't think MSFS actually simulates sandstorms, does it?
Bad weather is on the list!
@@A330Driver I have read that it's a planned feature. Hope it will come through as well as volcanic ashes, smoke etc. We simmers just love bad weather :D
@@A330Driver Thanks 🙏
A lot of propaganda and even when we will have to wait, to know the cost and save
Sorry, not sure what you mean with propaganda. Could you elaborate?
