    Thanks for the video. I have been using the Cost Index document from TOGA projects for a while, but I found out today that the version that I have is an older version. Just downloaded their current version of the document.

    I have been flight simming for 8 years, P3d pmdg 737s, now msfs2020 737s and I just learned what it means... thank you

      I experimented with it on one recent video and people simply did not notice. No increase in views, no positive comments. But it increased the work required for the video by the factor of 4.

    Jetzt hab ich den Anflug im Standbild oben auch endlich mal erkannt. Ich hätte ja gleich auf das PFD schauen können. Anstattdessen dachte ich: "Hmmm die Flußwindungen hast du doch schon irgendwo mal gesehen."
    Natürlich hab ich das. Den Anflug flieg ich im Simulator ziemlich oft. Ist ja der Flughafen, der meinem Wohnsitz am nächsten ist. ;)

    Excellent explanations. My only comment is that most of the video running time is just a static text. It would increase viewing if the manuals could be shown during your script, or make sure that the viewer is encouraged to open the documents initially. HTH.

    • @A330Driver
      @A330Driver  Рік тому

      Normally I would agree, but when I experimented with it, it simply gave no noticable increase and in fact not even comments about it. Not sure if I am allowed to show any of the documents I ref'ed in the video could even be shown on screen legally due to copyright. That's why I kept those scenes short.

    • @A330Driver
      @A330Driver  Рік тому +1

      Next up is the 737-900, thereafter the 777 and then the 747, followed by the 737 MAX.

    I run at max due to the dancing girls, the booze and they like to fly fast with the occasional zero gravity manure . Interesting subject. I never understood it and I always just use 11, cause it's easy to key in. Thanks for the knowledge.

    So if I get "Unable Crz Alt" msg in the FMC, that is due to the CI entered is not able to be flown at my entered ALT? As opposed to the max alt at a certain weight?

    • @smash_1389
      @smash_1389 Рік тому

      I get that usualy on short flights when there are coded altitude restrictions in longer SIDs. I think that Simbrief sometimes does not take into account that restrictions and gives you higher cruising altitude that is usually achievable when you remove altitude restrictions.

    • @A330Driver
      @A330Driver  Рік тому +1

      The message can have many reasons, one might be the CI. Other can be a shitty flight planning program (yes, simbrief can sometimes be that shitty), or performance data that differs from the flight planning program (different weights, more fuel, etc.).

    Do pilots actually need to know all this formula stuff and get tested on this? Or do they just use what company says to use?

    • @A330Driver
      @A330Driver  Рік тому +2

      Yes, that's stuff of basic ATPL theory lessons and exams. Understanding how your airplane works and what sideeffects your actions will have is essential to safe operations.

    Ahoi! Da du ja mit PMDG zusammen arbeitest weißt du ja vielleicht wann das Wetterradar implementiert wird? mfg

    • @A330Driver
      @A330Driver  Рік тому +1

      Moin Markus, dafür muss Asobo erstmal eine Wetter API verfügbar machen.
      Das war für SU10 zugesagt. Jetzt sieht es aber so aus, als würde man nur einen 2D Layer in sehr schlechter Auflösung von oben drauf bekommen und kein 3D Bild des Wetters, wie es notwendig wäre für einen Wetterradar.
      Es steht also weiter offen, was möglich sein wird und was nicht.
      Mit einem 2D Layer wird kein WXR möglich sein. Das hätte mit einem realen Wetterradar nichts, garnichts, zu tun.
      Da hilft nur Asobo auf die Füße zu treten und eine vernünftige API zu bauen.

    So in a sim, where fuel costs are fictional, I guess you let her rip at a high CI!

    • @A330Driver
      @A330Driver  Рік тому +2

      Comes down to personal perception of realism. I keep the CIs similar to those used by the real airlines.
