I like that he explains the function of the different configurations. I've seen so many videos where they just tell you stuff but give no explanation to what it does or affects the aircraft.
Enjoyed the video, just an important correction, if you were in the real jet or simulator, when you do the Before Start procedure, and you have clearance to pressurize hydraulics from the ground crew, the FO would put #4 Hydraulic Demand Pump to AUX first, and then HYD Demand Pump 1 to AUTO (or AUX if the jet has it) and #2 and 3 to Auto. Doing it in this order pressurizes the normal brake system first and prevents a fluid transfer between systems. Normal Brakes are on system 4, with Alternate Brakes on 1 or 2 systems, so if you pressurize 1 first, the transfer valve will shuttle over and when 4 is pressurized, you could get a transfer of fluid between systems.
A very interesting video on the cockpit of the Boeing 747-400, the start up aspect. I can watch these kind of video's for hours without getting bored for a single moment. Thank you very much !!
Great Video. I was able to carry out my very 1st flight on flight sim with the help of this video and my friend who is a qualified FO on the 767 for DHL. He was very impressed. Keep up the hard work
Great video and tutorial. In my honest opinion, if you understand Boeing planes very well and your knowledge of aircraft systems in general is very good, and that you approach a plane in a very logical way, then you would definitely prepare the 747 for flight by yourself. BUT...following the procedures in the form of a pre-flight SOP is the best way to handle the 747. That's what you did good in this video. These planes are made to be operated realistically!
Thank you very much AviationPro for taking the time in making this detailed tutorial. I believe you're the only person who has made a video this way for the iFly 747 400. I want to let you know that I appreciate the time and effort you put into making this and other videos, as I'm sure your viewers do as well. In the future if I have other ideas on video tutorials, you will be my "go-to person" to get this done. Thanks again!
Thank you very much! I learned the procedure for the IFly 737 already from you and as I am planning to get the 747 for my first participation at CTP 2015, I am even happier that I can learn it from you as well. Thank you very much keep it on ;)
Very nice tutorial-well explained. A beautifully modeled flightdeck I must say, however I am still waiting for the PMDG 747-400 V3 as I expect it will have less impact on the FPS. Looking forward to flying the 747-400 again, it adds an extra dimension to flight simulation.
Nice video, just a clarification for your own knowledge. The Safety Check, or Electrical Power-Up procedure as Boeing calls it, is a read and do supplemental procedure procedure which turns the Battery ON, Standby Power to AUTO, Hydraulic Demand Pumps OFF, Windshield Wipers OFF, Landing Gear Lever DOWN, Alternate Flaps OFF, and the Flap Lever and Flap Indication Agree. The Bus Tie Switches AUTO, then AC power can be established with EXT or APU power. In actual line operations, it is rare to do this since the jet is usually powered up and at the jetway by maintenance or by the previous crew's arrival. The safety check is designed so there are no surprises like leading edge or trailing edge flaps moving when they shouldn't, or wipers start running on a dry windshield and scratch it, etc. After power is established, then there is a preliminary preflight procedure, which brings the IRU's to NAV, checks STATUS page quantities, the logbook, CB's, Emergency Equipment, the Overhead Maintenance Panel, and the Parking Brake Set if brake wear indicator pins are checked. After this is the FMS-CDU Preflight and then after that is checking the overhead panel in a scan flow that goes from the overhead panel to the side panels, to the Forward Instrument Panel, to the Thrust Quadrant, to the Aisle Stand. Of course, the Captain and FO have specific duties of what they are checking and how they are checking it.
You might give a thought to checking the fire detection and suppression before starting the engines or the APU so it you have a start malfunction or fire, you know you can see it and do something about it. Everything I've flown so far does that... When I check out on the 747, I expect it to be the same.
The way the fuel system works during preflight is that the pilot checking the overhead panel (usually the FO) will ensure that all X-Feeds are OPEN and all Fuel Pump switches are OFF. During the Before Start procedure, the FO will turn all Fuel Pumps ON for the tanks containing usable fuel. So, if there is no fuel in the STAB and CTR tank, he would not turn these on. If the fuel in 2 is less than or equal to 1 or the fuel in tank 3 is less than or equal to tank 4, then you will see the TANK TO ENGINE message after turning the fuel pump switches, including the Overrides ON. At this point, we would check the Fuel Synoptic to verify it is truly tank to engine and then configure for tank to engine, which would be turning OFF Overrides 2 and 3 FWD and AFT fuel pumps, and closing X-Feeds 1 and 4. You had some question on this, so hopefully this clarifies it. Most of the time, there will be fuel in the Center Tank on the freighter and/or fuel in the Center and Stab tanks on a passenger jet since this jet is normally not doing short distance flights. But, on a ferry flight or some Asian carriers operate some short flights like between Taipei and Hong Kong, you may well have a light fuel load.
Very well explained and informational video thank u i really liked that it was just the systems involved in the startup and not the fmc to much because the fmc is a different world to understand . But is there any chance of u doing videos of the airbus a330
@Miles Denning It is quite a heavy addon, so I'm not sure if you will get as much framerates as you do with the CS 757. However, they are working on a service pack which is said to improve the performance as well, so you might want to wait for that to see the results!
Wael Soliman Thanks! I think I actually completely forgot that switch and I'm not sure what it does, but apparently it works irregardless. And about that video, what do you mean exactly? About how it performs on the framerates?
Great tutorial! I'm still torn between choosing the iFly or the PMDG although each have their advantages. I'm looking forward to your future videos! :)
Thanks! Well, let's see what the pmdg 747 V2 brings, only then we can make a proper comparison ;) For now the iFly 747-400V2 is the best bet in my opinion, since the current pmdg 747 is pretty old already.
Lucien Harbuck Thanks! I have no idea about that, I have never seen that system mentioned anywhere at iFly and I'm not even sure what it exactly is. ;)
I have am running the PMDG 747 on Prepar3D V5 and I cannot assign any of the axis for reverse thrust and speed brake. Any tips. Personally, I prefer X-Plane, as much easier and am really a bit pissed off at myself for spending all that money because I cannot get my throttle and throttle quadrant running on P3D. But. nevertheless, great video and too bad I can't get it running.
You're turning on too many systems prior to establishing external or APU power. You'll wear down the battery too fast that way. Also you should disconnect External power from Ground prior to start (Start is usually done during pushback on APU power)
tf51d Yes I guess you mean the utility switches, actually they should have been turned on after external power was connected. As for the engine start, yes, normally ground power is disconnected and you use the APU to start the engines during pushback. Sometimes engines are started at the gate in case external air is needed due to an APU failure or problem, in that case ground power would still be connected as well.
5:20 - You definitely do not want to turn on those guarded switches - those are for fuel jettison only and that is why they are guarded. You also do not need to crossfeed unless the inboard L/R tanks have more fuel than the outboard L/R, this is to ensure balance between each side and that engines #1 and #4 do not get fed empty tanks when the inboard tanks still have fuel.
What does it mean if an engine only powers to 2.6 or 2.7 N1? I have refueled all fuel tanks and have all fuel pumps active, and APU running, but an engine shows an orange outline on the fuel status display and does not want to power up fully.. ? Is this a bug in FS2020 or is there something I should be doing to address this ?
Alweer een prima video, ik heb alleen een vraag: is er een kans dat u een video upload met een vlucht in de erj 135/145?Dat vind ik persoonlijk een heel tof vliegtuig, en het vereist een beetje andere skills omdat je geen VNAV hebt en geen auto throttle.
Tim Hoppe Thanks! Klopt, het is een vliegtuig waar ik ook graag in vlieg, juist omdat je zelf echt wat meer moet vliegen in plaats van alleen maar autopilot, dus misschien ga ik hem wel gebruiken voor de volgende VATSIM video. Eerst nog eentje met een 737 binnenkort ;)
hey AviationPro ik heb een paar vraagjes/ opmerkingen 1. gebruik jij ENB? zo ja welke gebruik jij? 2. welke addons vind jij je flightsimulator echter lijken qua texture van ground en plane? 3. nice vid!
1, nee! 2, plane verschilt per plane addon natuurlijk, maar in het algemeen geven Real Environment Xtreme en Ultimate Terrain de beste resultaten. 3, thanks! :D
I don't have all the buttons in the cockpit avaliable to me. Is there some setting i need to change or do you use another version of x-plane than the home-use version?
+FilmpowerNorway I'm not sure what you are talking about. This is Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 with the iFly 747-400 V2 addon installed. This has nothing to do with X-plane ;)
Hey Mate, its wonderful... But i have one prob. Everything in my flight works fine, until i takeoff. After takeoff, i receive following warning on ECAM.. 1. Auto-throttle Disc(Though mt A/T is armed) 2.Bleed Air 2 off, 3.Bleed Air 3 off, And gradually hell lots of such warnings. Fuel flow to ENG will stop, and my flight will stall... Any suggestions?
MrPrateekpanda Thanks! You probably disconnected the autothrottle, it can be armed but still disconnected. And bleed air means you have not set the air conditioning properly. And all the other stuff, well, I don't know, it could also be a faulty installation of course!
Awesome vid! My question is: my FPS in this aircraft is very low, and pmdg 737 is just good, do u know why my fps is low on the ifly and not with the pmdg 737?
kubilay k Thanks! I'm not sure, because I don't use FSX. Fact is that the virtual cockpit is very detailed and you will probably need to do some extra tweaking. For example, I'm always locking the frames at 30 fps when flying this 747, while with other aircraft I have it locked at 60 fps. Locking it at 30fps gives me a smoother flying experience without lags, otherwise the PC struggles to get to 60 fps.
I have a quick question about my system specs and this aircraft. I was looking for a good 747 for FS2004 and this looks very superior to the PMDG 747. I was looking into getting it but see it requires some things I don't have, but I am able to run other products at 30-40 frames that require 3+ GHZ such as the Captain Sim 757-200. My specs are below: OS: Windows 7 64x Processor: Intel Core i5-2520M CPU @ 2.5 GHz Ram: 8GB Video Card (Heres where it comes down to.): Radeon HD 6470M
First time Flightgear i ran the Cesna off the runway, second time i actually got it to fly a good bit; the hell with it, i wanna fly a 747 and ... DAMN.
+Nicolas Navarrete That shouldn't be happening. It is raised for about 3 degrees, but not a lot. Are you sure you are not flying too high for your weight?
Hello, i have some questions, first I use 747 dafault by xplane10 and i cant use all buttons on overpanel for example, and how can i download these aircraft? thank youuu!
It really helped me a lot! :-) But do you know how I can increase the FPS rate? It´s very low (about 20) in FS9, with nearly all the other aircrafts I have about 60.

Ben je Nederlands?
Could you've started the APU after the battery instead of using ground power? And how would that work?
Pls help my default b747-400 turn rightward automatically after takeoff.
I like that he explains the function of the different configurations. I've seen so many videos where they just tell you stuff but give no explanation to what it does or affects the aircraft.
Thanks for the tutorial...now my next step is to buy a 747.
You're welcome, good luck!
you go rich brother
Find one on Craigslist
You ever buy one??
I mean it’s not like they are ever really locked on the tarmac or need a key ya know...
Does anyone else get really relaxed watching such start up’s, or is it just me? 😂 ✈️
I love watching/doing startups!

Thank you! Thanks for your detailed explanation, I would have loved to cover all such detail in this tutorial, but this is just a basic startup ;)

You're welcome :)
Nice work Thanks, from an Ex-Controller.
+sundevilification You're welcome! :)
Thanks, good job. I do not know why the ground service to external energy doesn t appear. The parking break is on. Any idea?
Could you make a video about the same thing, but for the Project Opensky B747-400 model or just the default FSX B747?
@Miles Denning It is quite a heavy addon, so I'm not sure if you will get as much framerates as you do with the CS 757. However, they are working on a service pack which is said to improve the performance as well, so you might want to wait for that to see the results!
were I get this simulator
can u able to send the url to download
You need to buy microsoft flight simulator and then you can expand it by buying addons like this iFly 747-400 V2
+AviationPro where did you get the addon from? Thanks and great video :D
Thanks! You can buy it over at flight1.com
+AviationPro Hey bro, does the IFLY747-400 work for fsx steam edition in 2016?
Great video
I have a question , Why you did not select auto start both?
and we need another video to evaluate the performance
Thank's
Wael Soliman Thanks! I think I actually completely forgot that switch and I'm not sure what it does, but apparently it works irregardless. And about that video, what do you mean exactly? About how it performs on the framerates?
AviationPro No I don't mean the framerates but I mean how is the realistic in climb , descend and landing phases?
I think very realistic, although I still need to test it more by making more flights myself ;)
SSFT has excellent training vids on 747-4, -8 fuel system as well as other systems. He’s a Captain and instructor on 747-4, -8 I’m pretty sure
Great tutorial! I'm still torn between choosing the iFly or the PMDG although each have their advantages. I'm looking forward to your future videos! :)
Thanks! Well, let's see what the pmdg 747 V2 brings, only then we can make a proper comparison ;) For now the iFly 747-400V2 is the best bet in my opinion, since the current pmdg 747 is pretty old already.
Great video. What flight simulator would you advise a novice to start with?
Probably FSX Steam Edition :)
AviationPro Thank You:)
What keyboard commands bring up the FMC and MCP (mode control panel)? What program are you flying in? Xplane, FSX....
Excellent Video, Thank You! BTW....does the iFly B747-400 come equipped with the Boeing-Honeywell Uninterruptible Autopilot? TNX Again!
Lucien Harbuck Thanks! I have no idea about that, I have never seen that system mentioned anywhere at iFly and I'm not even sure what it exactly is. ;)
I love these startup videos! Any plans to do the 747-8 anytime soon?
Unfortunately, Aerofly FS 2 does not support engine shut down or start up. But if someday it does, this is a great tutorial video!
Is there a way the 747 will be in cold and dark mode as you start the SIM?
Thank you ! Excited to see more 747 vids !
Thanks, I'm sure more will follow! :)
Thanks! I'll be able to do my RFEs correctly!

This guy: Let's take a look
Awesome tutorial though
Awesome video, thanks a lot!!! Keep up the good work!
Thanks! :)
Very nice video!
At 0:46. How did you open the battery cover? I tried left click as well as right click. Nothing worked. Thus, I could never power up my plane.
No fire test on APU or engines before start?
I usually use active camera to look around the cockpit easily
Fire control system check before start?
5:20 - You definitely do not want to turn on those guarded switches - those are for fuel jettison only and that is why they are guarded. You also do not need to crossfeed unless the inboard L/R tanks have more fuel than the outboard L/R, this is to ensure balance between each side and that engines #1 and #4 do not get fed empty tanks when the inboard tanks still have fuel.
again at 10:35, the OVRD fuel pumps are not required - with the jettison feeds on you are now spraying fuel all over the tarmac :P
Thanks for the info! But the jettison feeds are not on, so I guess fuel will not be flowing all over the tarmac :P
What does it mean if an engine only powers to 2.6 or 2.7 N1? I have refueled all fuel tanks and have all fuel pumps active, and APU running, but an engine shows an orange outline on the fuel status display and does not want to power up fully.. ? Is this a bug in FS2020 or is there something I should be doing to address this ?

Why didn’t Transat flight 236 get a fuel loss alarm when pilot forgot to turn off the cross feed?
Graphics r great
Is there a mod that can be used to activate these?
Is the FMC able to be updated to the most current AIRAC through Navigraph?
Yes, using Navigraph airac data for example

My new PMDG 747 tutorial includes FMC setup as well: ruclips.net/video/i6Po9Y1rI1s/видео.html
Thanks a lot :)
hi,
how long are the manuals of this bird? are they detailed or similiar to the ifly737 one?
+jNS278 Yes, they are utterly detailed. You'll need a couple of weeks to get through all of it ;)
you will not do a fire test?
Hey Mate, its wonderful... But i have one prob. Everything in my flight works fine, until i takeoff. After takeoff, i receive following warning on ECAM..
1. Auto-throttle Disc(Though mt A/T is armed)
2.Bleed Air 2 off,
3.Bleed Air 3 off,
And gradually hell lots of such warnings. Fuel flow to ENG will stop, and my flight will stall... Any suggestions?
MrPrateekpanda Thanks! You probably disconnected the autothrottle, it can be armed but still disconnected. And bleed air means you have not set the air conditioning properly. And all the other stuff, well, I don't know, it could also be a faulty installation of course!
AviationPro Thank you so much....
Thank you for this super video!
You're welcome! :)
Thank you very much !!
Thanks for watching!
Which flight is this?
Thank you 🎊
Awesome vid! My question is: my FPS in this aircraft is very low, and pmdg 737 is just good, do u know why my fps is low on the ifly and not with the pmdg 737?
kubilay k Thanks! I'm not sure, because I don't use FSX. Fact is that the virtual cockpit is very detailed and you will probably need to do some extra tweaking. For example, I'm always locking the frames at 30 fps when flying this 747, while with other aircraft I have it locked at 60 fps. Locking it at 30fps gives me a smoother flying experience without lags, otherwise the PC struggles to get to 60 fps.
aviationpro thnx for replying ill check maybe sonething for tweaking this
You're welcome ;)
I have a quick question about my system specs and this aircraft. I was looking for a good 747 for FS2004 and this looks very superior to the PMDG 747. I was looking into getting it but see it requires some things I don't have, but I am able to run other products at 30-40 frames that require 3+ GHZ such as the Captain Sim 757-200. My specs are below:
OS: Windows 7 64x
Processor: Intel Core i5-2520M CPU @ 2.5 GHz
Ram: 8GB
Video Card (Heres where it comes down to.): Radeon HD 6470M
What fmc is that u are using?
I love flight sim games
Hi
I have a flight simulator steam edition, but I don't have any buttons on it :(
Why is that ?
You forgot to disconnect the External Power 😅 but great video :)
Nice vid man, btw what liveries does the iFly 747 come with
Thanks! Only default I believe, but you can download lots of liveries at library.flight1.net
Hola a todos. Acabo de comprar el add-on 747-400 para flight simulator X, pero no puedo arrancar en modo cold & dark. ¿Me pueden ayudar?. Gracias
Dankjewel! :D
:)
My crts don't seem to start. Nor my FMC. Please help.
How can i create a Co route? I know how to load one but how do i add another one to the Co routes bar.
I have not done that yet in this aircraft. I'm sure there must be some information about this in the manual?
Very interesting, But where do you stick in the Ignition key? LOL
+Ray Louis Airplanes don't have keys! :P
First time Flightgear i ran the Cesna off the runway, second time i actually got it to fly a good bit; the hell with it, i wanna fly a 747 and ... DAMN.
Hi. Could you please tell me where you found the KLM livery for the iFly 747-400 v2? Thanks
You can find liveries at library.flight1.net
How I configure the stab , while in crz altitude the nose is very raised?
+Nicolas Navarrete That shouldn't be happening. It is raised for about 3 degrees, but not a lot. Are you sure you are not flying too high for your weight?
Hello, i have some questions, first I use 747 dafault by xplane10 and i cant use all buttons on overpanel for example, and how can i download these aircraft? thank youuu!
+cesar henrique This is an addon aircraft for FS2004, FSX and Prepar3D. You can buy it over at www.flight1.com
Thanks for your help!! :)
sumthin3789 You're welcome! :)
Thank you very much for your tutorial!
You're welcome! :)
It really helped me a lot! :-)
But do you know how I can increase the FPS rate? It´s very low (about 20) in FS9, with nearly all the other aircrafts I have about 60.
What are your specs?
Windows7 Pro. 64bit
CPU: i5-4460, 3,20GHz
RAM: 8GB
Graphics card?
hey may i know which simulation game is this
Where can I buy this with sales?
Nice vid
MRMODDING4EVER MODDZ That's quick, thanks! :D
Hi, ik heb je tutorial gevolg en alles ging goed tot ik in de vlucht zat hij gaf aan op mn ECAM display Cabin altitude hoe kan ik dit fixen ?
+ikbenmichel112 FMC goed programmeren, anders weet het vliegtuig niet hoe hij de cabine druk moet regelen ;)
what mod to have all the buttons and switches to work?
It's not a mod, it's a payware addon. You can buy payware addons at simmarket.com or flight1.com for example.
thanx dudox :D
