Started my engineering career on the 747 classic 45 years ago. LOL... It's amazing how much you forget. I seem to remember when putting power on the aircraft, I used to operate two switches at once (obviously not possible in a desktop sim). I still have my training notes, but it doesn't mention things like this.
I just purchased this aircraft while at work. I can’t wait to get home and try it out. But all this old technology is very different to what I’m used to. Thank you for your video.
Small correction: You turn the radar to STBY to not toast people on the ground, but I don't know if it also has Weight-on-Wheels protection. Turning the radar to 5° up is because your initial stage of flight is Climb, so you care about current altitude and higher altitudes. When you reach cruising altitude, you would turn it to 0° or -5°. It follows what you do with the transponder in an A320 series, for instance: you turn the transponder and TCAS filter to ABV until Cruise, then BLW until Landing.
There is a classic on on the org store! I am sure more will come as the aircraft gets released forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/files/file/74505-worn-boeing-747-200-tap-transportes-a%C3%A9reos-portugueses-cs-tjb/

Wow big respect for you, sir!
So well done! this helps so much - many other videos are too" long winded” on these basics.

That's why I love aviation! There is always something to learn! Thank you!

You have a relaxing voice! Did anybody tell you? 😚

Do you have a paper checklist for this or do you remember how to do it by memory?
I have a basic check list on paper
Is there somewhere to download the Air Portugal livery?
Iam sure this livery will be available when the plane is released.

Thanks! Was able to locate liveries Master List: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ESIbaPwoNGTEP7_oojVK7hQr5-Hjte_SsQGLD78yKzo/edit#gid=0
