Circling Approaches: How to plan and fly them

- Tips and Instructions are only to be used for the Flight Simulator on your PC! It should go without saying that I am only flying a PC Simulator, not a real aircraft. My videos therefore are not intended as professional instruction! And my videos do not show SOP ( Standard Operating Procedure) of any distinct airline.
Please leave a thumbs up if you liked the video. Cheers!

Always appreciate these "hands on" demos. Many thanks for taking the time, BB! 👍
Thank you very much
I really appreciate the uploads! Due to my busy schedule I've been unable to watch most of your streams but these videos are a very compact and well-done compromise to the full streams. Thanks again for sharing so much valuable knowledge BB. Keep the blue side up! :-)
Hey Cosroe. Thank you very much. Great to see you are still around and watching my videos. Stay safe and always happy landings 👍🏼
Really great tutoring videos, all of them👍 ...they help me returning back to flightsim world after 10 years of absence 🙂
And I especially like this video, as I have started my real life ATC career 25 years ago as a twr controller in LJLJ. And there is an “interesting 😬”story from my first year as a fresh controller that involves circling procedure...
I have been controlling only VFR traffic for rwy 13 all afternoon (25 years ago runways were 13 and 31)...and finally on the ILS there arrives Austrian Foker from Vienna.
On outer marker I cleared Austrian to land .... well I had in mind rwy 31, but very likely I have mistakenly said rwy 13. There was no wind and no reason for circling approach, but nevertheless pilot didn’t question or at least tried to confirm my sudden decision for opposite runway but just acknowledged landing clearance... You can imagine my shock when a minute later I realized that Austrian is on downwind leg instead on the runway 😬. Luckily I haven’t had any VFR traffic on that downwind and everything turned out ok...
Well those two guys in Austrian really didn’t have more than 20 seconds to revert to circling procedure...I hope they weren’t as shocked as I was moments later 🙂
Thank you. Fantastic story 👍🏼 thank you for sharing
hello robert , did you manage to install P3D with FSlabs A320 or did you chose something else ?
@@Nadsyw1 yes, I had and it works perfect 👍
@@foxromeo71 I used to fly fs2004 longtime ago it was good... Now on the p3d and all the add-ons I have all installed , I haven't been that successful to finally fly , I get uninterested in the complicated settings .. wish I could manage this setup or get some help , my soon OPC would definitely be easier .. Nadia
When sequenced properly the VDEV is very helpful for maintaining the rate of descent.
Interesting location, great looking scenery but those runway textures need a little love! Love circling in the 'Bus!
Hi. The location was more important than the runway textures.
It was probably Orbx’s LBLJ anyways. They gave it away as freeware. Can’t really complain much when developers don’t ask for much.
@@militaryav8r yeah fair enough
Could you show how to fly the terrain escape manouver in the a320 family. I think the fs labs 320 has a more enhanced terrain rader then the ff.
Could you make an A320 terrain escape video?
Your content is excellent. It's great to see you share your passion!
I currently operate the 320/319 for a US carrier. Due to the pandemic, like most of us, I've not been flying much. I wanted to make the most out of flight sim to maintain some proficiency. I currently run FSX with the FSL 320 but the sim obviously has limitations.
Would you recommend P3D and the FSL 320 or Xplane with the Toliss? I understand that FSL probably has the superior aircraft but, in your opinion, is it worth the additional cost? Also, it appears that Xplane may be a bit easier to get setup compared to p3d.
In my opinion go straight to FSL A320, disregard cost difference, if you wish quality, don't hesitate.
Hi. Since you are rated on the A320 you probably also want to practice abnormals. And this is where the Toliss has its limitation because the system simulation and especially the ECAM checklists are not modeled properly. The FSLabs on the other hand does have a very good abnormal system simulation. I personally use it to practice for my biannual Checkrides.
Hi,
I was hoping you could help me understanding this.
I'd like to know the timing to initiate a turn. Example, I'm following a VOR course 354° for a visual approach at LFMN and I need to turn right onto the runway 04L in LFMN with an inbound course 43°.
I can determine the bank angle and time necessary for the turn but how woulld I know when to initiate the turn? I do not need to make a complete turn so unsure about the formula you give.
Just like always helping video
Very good stuff, as usual :)
My home airport :)
Sir, which software is the most realistic in term of peformance & aircraft aero dynamic like real aircraft
In my own experience, I think P3D with FSLabs A320X or X-Plane 11 with ToLiss A321-19 or alternatively FFA320U
Nice one man! What about in case of GA with the sec flight plan with only the opposite landing runway?
You have to rejoin the original missed approach. That is clearly laid out on the approach chart.
Hi ..
Sir question please
If the approach button on FCU
arms both LOC/GS why there is a LOC button?
It’s an engineer question by the way 😉
Sometimes you want to line up to the localizer but descent with an angle that you want. Like for example in the old circling approach to Innsbruck
The LOC button is also on the FCU. Below the HDG knob.
Captain thus is a amazing quality video learned a lot for my flight sim but how did you get textures to look that good mine looks blueish and bad
Hi. I use different addons like Rex Skyforce and Envshade
No I mean for the cockpit
Wonderful flying, BB. Very informative as well. Please can you tell me what button you use for 'Rev Thrust' on your Hotas? 😉😉
Hi. It is one of the toggle switches below the thrustlevers which I mapped using FSUIPC
@@Blackbox711 Thank you. Stay safe, my friend.
What instruction did you use in FSUIPC, bought last night, and can't find the correct one as it wasn't in the list. 'Throttle decrease quickly'.?
Nice one ;D
hi u legend sirrrrrrrr
Hi BB711, My post is out of topic. Just to tell you that I deeply hope that you will be part of the Fenix Simulations A320 development. I appreciate your impartial judgement on the products as a professional. Your pedagogy is just optimum. My self I have been practising the "beast" for 30 years + as a technician.
Looking for your future videos on the matter.
Thank you for the kind words. I am in the Alpha Tester team and will do my best to ensure the FENIX will set a new standard in A320 PC fight simulation.
Hi BB, can you update your UA-cam playlist?
Hi. What exactly do think needs updating?
whre are you black box?
Hi. At the moment working a lot. I am Livestreaming on Twitch regularly. I will be making new videos soon.
Hi sir, do we need to start turn on 45 degree once we reached 2700ft or once we reach missed approach point on runway 30
Hi. Do turn about one mile before the runway.
@@Blackbox711 where can i get 1nm reference as i can only see 0.5nm missed approach point
