This aircraft uses the HSI for naviagtion. Tune in the VOR freq, and turn the course selector on the HSI to center the CDI, and keep it centered to stay on course. This is no ordinary -200. It has -300 flt instruments, TCAS/VSI and the -17 engines (Notice the initial 3,700 ft/min climb rate, but fuel load is light) Though the flight directors are individual controlled for each pilot still, the hdg bug and the course selectors are sync'd. Nice HD vid and clean cockpit.
love the proffessionalism of the crew....they know their jobs and looks like they get along...at least while they're at work and thats what makes a crew...
@1970sPlaneSpotter I've been watching aviation clips on RUclips for 6 years but this one and the one showing the landing are among the best of the best.
This clip and the landing clip (which I watched first) are both excellent. Thank you very much for taking the time to film it and upload it for our enjoyment.
Many thanks to both pilots...they worked very together!!...Its amazing to see all the work going on "up front" when you are flying commercial....Rgds...Laurie
I'm going to try to answer 2 questions here. 1st- the wheels at either side of the aisle stand are the pitch trim (elevator) wheels. They have handles that can be moved out to allow manual operation if the electric trim fails. 2nd- in all transport category jets I've flown, it's desirable to have all engines stabilized before setting T/O thrust. This prevents directional control problems before the rudder comes to life. The pilot flying "stands them up", that is sets the thrust levers to vertical. After all engines spool up and are symmetrically paired, you "push 'em up" or engage autothrottle for the same effect. The target in the older medium bypass engines (737-200) was about 70% of N1. The target for stabilization for the hi-bypass (737-700,800,900) is about 40% N1. Once T/O thrust is set, the pilot not flying makes call outs like: T/O thrust set, 80 kts, V1, Vr, V2. Hope that helps. I'm here for more questions. Happy Landings
+Gerard Moran Moving to T/O, the copilot initially pulled the throttles back from vertical and yet the turbines spooled up - I thought the throttle levers operated just one-way? Also, when throttling back during climbout the pilot made an adjustment to a lever on the right of the console. What was that about? I presume that the "falling" levere on either side of the console were flap position indicators? Thank you.
+Vee6watchman This copilot is new to the 73. When he began applying power he overshot the desired position. He pulled the throttles back to the correct position as the engines spooled up; jet engines respond to commands much more slowly than reciprocating engines. Then he set takeoff thrust. After liftoff he commanded "gear up" which the captain did. The captain then turned off the taxi light, wing lights and wheel well lights, turned on his flight director and selected flaps 1 as asked by the copilot.
737-200 ! That plane I bet flew millions of passengers in its prime with a airline(s) now its putting in work in its final years of service as a cargo plane. I bet the repair bill is 6 figures a year.
Excelent Video! Very experienced Crew as they go about the routine...V1 rotate,positive climb,gear up etc..... Post more videos with longer duration..and many Thanks!
I think the prime reason why this video is so good is because you can see the ground moving outside the cockpit, gives a good sense of speed and movement.
My friend is a 737 pilot....those wheels on either side of the throttles are called trim wheels...in laymans terms, they basically correct balance in flight. As the wind forces on elevatorsand alierons become greater and greater, the trim reflects that pressure allowing the plane to be more stable in flight...or at least that's what he told me :)
hi there, have you teamed up with neocastillo for these in cockpit vids? i have watched neocastillo's vids with awe, but your take on them seems to be a match made in heaven. cheers
Planes flew years without such navigation computers. It's only of the last few 10s of years such displays and computers are available. It's done by radio btowers. Plotting a flight by tracking radio transmissions such as VOR and ADF. GPS wasn't available in the 60s - 80s - mid 90s when flying across the planet ;)
I'm confused. Who had control? Captain had his hand on the power levers a little past V1 but copilot had his hand on the yoke and appeared to perform the actual takeoff. Very good video though, good sound too.
Como simepre Noe una delicia tus videos,oye solo na pregunta jeje son los unicos Pilotos de regional cargo?? de ser asi woow! han de volar un monton de horas al mes! saludos.
What are those wheels that spin everyso often on either side of the throttle housing??? It looks like it would suck to have your fingers near it when it spins fast.

The synchronicity between these fliers is pretty amazing.
i guess it's kind of off topic but do anyone know a good site to stream new movies online?
You mean the control jokes? They are mechanical connected.
What a kick ass gig. These guys know their stuff.
Beautifully Shot! I could read every instrument on the panel!

I was expecting a runway shot and was pleasantly surprised with this! Great job and camera work. More please!
It is so comforting to have the senior pilot on the left . . .
i want to hug the captain, he's cool, great aircraft and vid !
Amazing! its so detail, its almost that I'm right there!
Fantastic video! My utmost respect for pilots and aviators everywhere!
Simply amazing my friend, keep it coming, the whine of these JT8's is priceless. Thanks for sharing.

Both the landing and the departure... Some amazing footage right here Simon! I would like to hear the story about this flight...
Fantastic footage there...
Best taking-off video ever. Amazing footage. Thanks for sharing.
Yes. Once engaged the autopilot constantly adjusts it. Theres a toggle on the yoke as well the pilots can use to adjust it.

Maybe the best cockpit video I've ever seen (and I've seen many). Keep posting and thanks for sharing !
The captain reminds me of "K" from Men in Black. ^_^ GREAT footage!..B732 is one of my all time classic fav's!

Love it! The 732 was the first commercial aircraft I ever flew on.
@LanIost Those speed things are called throttles. The spinny wheels are elevator trim.
Wow!! i was speechless watching this video. your doing some excellent work with these videos, keep them coming!
thank you for being on youtube
Very cool - love the cockpit view videos. Must be an amazing feeling to be a pilot at the controls.
Great Quality video! Thanks for uploading, pretty rare to get this kind of footage in the cockpit.
Great camera work. Wish other cockpit videos were as good. Well done!!!!
el aterrizaje y el despegue son algunos de los mejores videos que haya visto, que bonita profesion.....
Gracias!! mas videos porfa, estan increibles!!!!!!
Great video thanks Simon
@guisantenuclear Those are the trim wheels, they have a white stripe so it's easy to see that they are moving.
Amazing, great quality, more please! :)
Excellent video! The quality and angles were superb!
wow what an amazing video and what a cool captain!!
amazing cockpit
Seriously man i love your videos. Awesome. Expecting more of these from you.
I take this over glass cockpit any day. Thanks for uploading
Stabiliser trim. Reduces/removes the force required on the control column to maintain the pitch required.
Those cockpits were loud on take off! Those engines scream!
Ok. Good job i love it
Armando Campos - Portugal
Exceptional! Thank You Simon!
Capt. is so relaxed... so sweet :)
love these videos!!!
hey nice video! congrats!! we want more !
Excellent shooting!
Excellent video, nice done!

@StarlightMassacre it's the trim. Autopilot uses it to stabilize
Realy good work ! Thank´s for sharing !
Nice video, Simon!
Kool video again! pt.2
excelente video, thanks for posting.
Love the 737-200s
great video....
Nice! Thank you, sir.
best on the internet! Student pilot
this is the niced i ever seen nicenicenice lovittttt
Thanks for the Information. I will look it up. Have a nice day.
I love your footage!
I wish there was a vid on the whole time of flight.....it's way better than my day at the office!
Love that bird! 👌🏻
Yes, that are the trims
hi there, have you teamed up with neocastillo for these in cockpit vids? i have watched neocastillo's vids with awe, but your take on them seems to be a match made in heaven. cheers
Very cool video !
Great video!!! way to go!
What a cool video! Not long enough
i juts felt like screaming...
MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE
@Stereophile11 Those are the trim wheels.
Makes Me Want To Follow My Dream And Become A Pilot.
Nice job Simon!!!
Amazing.
Seems to be even better quality then pilotseye.tv.....
I was in a cockpit of a 737-200 it’s good
I want more more more !!
I wish the camera focused on how the flight directors are set. Older jets like the -200, need to have their F/Ds changed periodically by the pilots.
One of the first airliners not to have a flight engineers desk in the cockpit.
Excellent!
My favorite town, see you next year :-)
Yes, he is turning off the taxi lights and landing lights.
What a great time to set aside the clipboard
Basically on this 737 you mostly do everything manually.

No hay pista 18 en el aereopuerto de mérida (mmmd).
Sheesh!.... I think the Capt is as cool as a cucumber! 5* Simon!
@Jett203 Thank you :-)
I'm confused. Who had control? Captain had his hand on the power levers a little past V1 but copilot had his hand on the yoke and appeared to perform the actual takeoff. Very good video though, good sound too.
Great video fantastic quality 100 stars!!
Excelente vídeo claro a eso se le suma la buena comunicación de la tripulación para ellos felicitaciones.
Como simepre Noe una delicia tus videos,oye solo na pregunta jeje son los unicos Pilotos de regional cargo?? de ser asi woow! han de volar un monton de horas al mes!
saludos.
Very good video, but too short.
What are those wheels that spin everyso often on either side of the throttle housing??? It looks like it would suck to have your fingers near it when it spins fast.
To get the nose down you can also pull the yoke all the way back. Much more fun....
why is the right thrust lever a little bit more pushed forward than the left one? same situation in the landing video aswell..
what are the things on either side of the throttle that keep flipping/moving?
great video by the way.
Beautiful!!!!
Indeed, good job.
you made my mornig
