Pressure altitude:
(29.92 - current altimeter setting inches Hg) * 1000 + current elevation in feet above MSL

Thanks for posting this. Was a great visual to explain basic aviation gauges to my 3yr old. He especially liked the attitude indicator and thought it was a pretty funny name. Cute kid.

Right on the edge of too much information but not there. A good deeper than most about the top 6 instruments and what they REALLY tell us.

[@TheBrambleverse]

How did you get the sticky notes on the side there? I like it and it looks great

[@ellonysman]

Great lessons, now if I only had a gamer pc and Xplane11! What are your sticky notes saying?🤷🏻‍♂️👍👨🏼‍✈️🇨🇦 Love your Dutch acent🍺

[@colinhudson8995]

you really are great, you should get into real flight instruction you'd be great at it

[@melvyns1975]

Not gonna lie...a lot of that made my brain hurt ha ha

[@panknak1120]

I have a issue because i dont see the AP button on autopilot

[@superhans85]

They changed it in an update Pankak. There is no autopilot button any more. You must press the HDG (Heading) or the NAV button to activatw it. I suggest pressing turning the compass bug (orange marker) to the direction required, and then pressing the HDG button. You may also want to press the ALT button to maintain altitude

[@panknak1120]

@@superhans85 Oh Thanks. How do I disengage the autopilot tho?

[@superhans85]

@@panknak1120 Sorry for getting back to you late. You can either set a button in the keyboard configuration, or (what I do) press the small red button on the left hand of the yoke.

@@superhans85 Alright

[@Thrust-Set-Simulations]

1 nm is 1 min of latitude, not 1 second. 1 degree is 60 nm. Otherwise, nice and informative video.😀

[@digitalaviator5088]

Ah you are correct.

You definitely can't fly drunk. A lot if info to manage. Takes a lot to become IFR pilot. Geez
