      Yes thanks, this video has been a great help. My short test flight from Edinburgh to Glasgow was a success after I realised that I need to manually select a ILS approach in the flight planner screen, previously I’d been using the auto approach setting and wondering why it wasn’t navigating correctly.

    Another tip, make sure your throttles are lined up with the climb detent. It is the first little arrow on the throttle labelled either CL or CLB. When you see the LVR CLB message flashing on the display screen, move it to that position. Despite it's name, the position will mange the throttle for the entire flight, including descent and approach. Then you just pull back to idle to land

    Mate, your videos are - in my humble opinion - the best on UA-cam. Explained at every step, shown exactly what to do and what to look out for (other videos I found too complicated or, skipping information).
    I just successfully imputed my ILS flight plan from LFPG, Paris to EGLI, London at nightime (live weather/time and I was up late).
    Followed your other cracking video that got me up and in the air and this one got me down safely, back in good 'ole Blighty.
    From a happy Birkenhead lad, thanks very much 👍😊👍

      I watched a pilot trainee video for ILS A320 landing (linked below) and after he pressed the LS button, he then pressed LOC and APPR before the diamonds had intersected on the heading/altitude.
      Is that possible in MSFS? Would it still work?

      @jeremypoulos4963 7 місяців тому

      agree. FlyJV (youtube) has a great video where you can catch a bunch of tips. He is an Airbus 1st officer. One tip he gave was to figure out the top of the descent, multiply your altitude by 3 and add 12-that is the number of miles from the airport to start a 3 degree descent.

After watching your video last week for the first time, I made a successful landing into KBOS. Watched it again, along with another video, and again made a successful ILS into KSTL. So two for two this week. Prior to that it was a mixed bag….lol. Thanks

But, wow, so little real flying involved in using flightplans and autopilot... but, it is obvious that flying large jets must require more computer management then a single engine prop plane that can be more easily maneuvered.
