How to identify airport runways and traffic patterns - Sporty's Private Pilot Flight Training Tips

Shop: www.sportys.co...
A standard traffic pattern is normally flown when setting up to approach and land at an airport. In this video, we'll take a look at the standard ways to both enter and depart a traffic pattern, as well as look at how runways are identified based on their location and orientation.

This is not only great for people starting to fly in real life for their PPL for example but also for sim pilots who want to be as close to real as possible! Thanks again.

As a note to new pilots, sometimes a runway marking is changed slightly if 2 airports relatively close to one another have runways in the same direction.
For example, if both airports have runways that point North, one airport will label their runway 36, while the other may label their runway 1 or 35. This avoids confusing that 2 airports and calling, or landing at, the wrong one. This is also called out on the Charts.

Great presentation. Thanks

I remember that FS 2004 had a flight instructor who would teach you all these things and talk you through everything you needed to do in flight lessons.
I don't know if the latest version has this or if they've spent most of their effort on graphics.
