I have seen a lot a videos but this one is the best, clear explanation, no back ground noise from the running simulator.
Great job. Advise me if you have more videos. Regards, Nedal
+Nedal Budair Thanks. Please feel free to subscribe. That way you'll be notified whenever I create a new video.
I did subscribe. Thanks.
MrCobolman Some airplanes has two sensors of autopilot
You want to really learn how it actually goes, Start with FSX Genius ... You can take off and fly with this video , but the procedures and settings are very wrong
I am now speaking like this guy to the passengers on my flight simulator X.
LOL! I had to listen to the video myself to see what you meant :)
Mate I've played fsx for 10yrs..this my 1st time using ils to land. Thank you very much. I turned the approach switch early and almost stalled the aircraft. Too many oscillations when pitching for altitude and tryna maintain speed. Lovely tutorial I'm chuffed
You have a great calming narration voice!
Fantastic presentation, easy explanation💟
I have spent over 7 hours of my life today watching tutorial after tutorial and each one of them seem to miss incredbily crucial pieces of information that left me frustrated.....Then I watched your video, concise, measured, clear....It's beautiful bro - thanks for ending my misery :D
Hi great tutorial! Could you make another video on the 747 but to a destination instead of a circuit as I find it more helpful with your other tutorials with a destination. I can now fly the 737-800 and the airbus because of your great tutorials.
25:10 “lift up the nose a b- and were down *chuckles nervously*
Thank gosh there is one decent 744 tutorial video out there. Well done. Most other videos on this topic are filled with inaccuracies and made by people who are obviously not competent on the software. Thanks for making this video. Two thumbs up.
when i instal fsx I have seen a lot a videos but this one is the best, clear explanation and i success takeoff and landing
Great job. Advise me if you have more videos. Regards, sayed
I am new to FSX only been using it for a week and I have just taken off and landed a747-400 at Blackpool airport perfectly (the nose wheel did go through the perimeter fence on landing lol but I did use full flaps throughout for taking off on the very short runway) while following your video! Excellent easy to follow instruction even for complete beginners like me :)
Hey I just spent 30 minutes trying to figure out why the auto pilot does not work, because my son 7 yo wants to fly the 747 haha. Thanks you saved me !
The great video that helped me to finish my challenge from engm to Kennedy international
The best explanation that I have seen on how to land a 747 on fsm. A Great job.
Just try to save the brakes by adding reverse thrust when you hit the ground :)
Great thanks for that,had spent half an hour looking for auto pilot
Watched 100 of videos never understood single thing but thanks to you bro need to watch it 1 other time😂
I was trying to start the auto pilot with mouse for so long thanks and video nicely done all details explained as it need to be
Instead of focusing on your GPS, you could use your cockpit clock. As soon as you perform the first 90-degree turn on your crosswind leg, set the timer to know how long it takes for a turn. After that, set the timer again the time until you turn on your downwind leg. Repeat the process again for the 90-degree turn on the crosswind leg and too for each following turn and leg. You need some planting on beforehand of course, and you might need a few more reference points, but it's an alternative to the GPS! ;)
Thank you for the video, very clear and concise. Just flying from Miami to JFK in the default 747-800 and haven't been able to successfully land using the ILS as yet! Hopefully it will go smoothly like your flight...
How do you know all these steps on how to fly the planes when u never flown one in real life, it amazes me, great content to an audience that dream of flying commercial jets
I use shift+/ to arm the spoilers (speed brakes) to deploy on touchdown. You can set autobrake in the 2D panel as well. 1 or 2 is good
Nice guide for those flying on FSX. But in real life or if you want to make your FSX experience as realistic as possible, keep the following in mind:
- A/T is not to be engaged before or during takeoff. It must be manually increased. Increase to 50% N1 (engine power) to spool up the engines and then increase it to full.
- Flaps should not remain down during the duration of the flight. It can be damaged. After takeoff, immediately close flaps and use it when really necessary. (Note: Take a look at the reference guide in FSX for airspeeds associated with each flap setting).
- Airspeed should not exceed 200 knots under 10,000 feet MSL.
- When landing, do not decrease throttle all the way to 0 until the back wheels touch the ground. (In the video, the aircraft made a hard landing; which is the case when you decrease throttle all the way before the wheels even touch the ground).
- Prior to landing, make sure the speed brakes are armed (pressing SHIFT+/ should do the trick).
- After both the wheels touch the ground, apply reverse thrust and then cancel reverse thrust once airspeed of the aircraft reaches 60 knots.
Thanks followed all the way and I did it landed the beast...cheers
Your videos are the best
Ok i just only started. I really like your videos and the way how you explain it. It really helped me a lot, Keep it up
Thanks for your comment, I'm glad you like them. Thanks also for sharing the video. Greatly appreciated.
learned so much from this video would love to see more.many thanks
Andy S in France
brilliant, wish I'd seen this 20 years ago. Didn't realise it was so easy,
Avoided flying heavy metal for years. Now I can fly and land a Jet like a pro. Thank you so much ! (key moment at 8:34) Alas; I still can't figure out the Beech Baron. All over the shop. Have to land it like an effing dart.
nice tutorial on how to use auto pilot to take off and land itself near enough of course you disabled right before touch down but enjoyed watching and learned a lot thanks
Thanks MrCobolman, excellent tutorial video!!!!
You're very welcome.
Great video, looks like you put a lot of work into this! The only suggestion I would have is when you are talking about the maroon or magenta items, maybe make it more clear which ones you were referring to, like when you used the red circles to point out the buttons. I got lost a little unfortunately. I also did not know when to turn to the next heading (how far out to fly before turning). Thanks! I'll play around with it tomorrow or the weekend. Thanks!!
Hi God video and clear concise instructions, however it would better to with standard cockpit view rather than virtual as the viewers can see the instrumentations easier and what they are showing. Thanks for the video
Hi, for easier intercept of the localiser, make your final turn to around 020deg and push the APPROACH button, the aircraft will then capture the localiser nicely and turn herself onto the final course 045deg.
You made this look so easy, lets hope i have more of an idea now ha, thanks
very nice. thank you.. enjoyed it very much.. keep it up.....Adelaide Australia
Thanks for the kind words.
Thanks Mr.C, I had given up on FSX for awhile now (about 6 months) as I could fly about anything on it except the big jets. but today I watched this video and took some notes and decided I'd give it a go. I set up at the same Airport and on the same runway and flew the same pattern 3 times in a row I set down to hard and crashed on landing. I was having that problem you mentioned about the plane trying to find center on the ILS and sweeping the nose back and forth franticly, also I kept getting warnings about flap speed (That I just ignored) After the 3rd failed landing I decided to try something different I changed to time of the flight to night so I could see the runway better and sooner but still another failed attempt. On the fifth time I decided to give into to the plane and let it start getting lined up as soon as possible with about a 22 mile final with lowered altitude from 2000 to 1800 on the last turn. As soon as I heard the ILS tones on my radio I hit the approach button and after a couple of 2 or 3 degree coarse changes and corrections my aircraft was sitting on 045 before it even entered the ILS fantail. Most everything else Was done just like you showed and this time she flared brilliantly and set down like a feather. I couldn't be happier right now then if I really earned my wings. I only wish my flight video recorded it properly so I someday could show it to you but that part of my FSX never has worked properly for some reason. Anyway with a little more practice I may be confident enough to try multiplayer and I have you and your video to thank for it. Cheers mate!!!
Final approach as long as you like to learn catching the ILS in plenty of time to set up for landing.
hi mate im fairly new to flight simming and would like to thank you for your tutorials on airbus 321 and this one now i can fly both planes ....i ve subscibed to you alook forward to learning more in the future :)
+daniel smith Hi Daniel - You're very welcome and thanks for your kind words.
very nicely explained... how did you go about programming the gps in?
very well narrated, lets look at landing speeds and let us know.
Nice tutorial, helped alot thanks
I have impaired vision so could you please use a large cursor arrow to indicate your instructions? A brilliant video though 10/10!
Great video. Do you need to heading mode on when you have the approach mode on?
No approach will automaticly disengade the attitude hold and the headin
nice video. finally something that works. actually i am using xplane and not flight xim.
The explanation is clear but from the point where you stopped showing your mouse I couldn’t see a thing and I’m now confused more
thanks MrCobolman for such a nice explaination...It really helped me a lot..and can you please create a tutorial video for helicopters also....
Amil Chaturvedi You're very welcome. I am starting a new series on helicopters soon, so if you haven't subscribed yet, now may be a good time!
amazing video
Nice Landing
Thank you
very nice
HI! nice video. I was wondering what textures you where using? are they freeware or payware? thanks.
Thanks ☺️
Well done !
Thanks a lot!
Very useful brother, thank you, im just learning and i was wondering what that app button would do and now i know it, one question though, Whats that green mark on the horizontal indicator?
Nav 2 VOR/DME (Distance Measuring Equipment) pointer.
Hi again, now from UK. Found your "simple guide to the default Boeing 747 which was just what I was looking for. One question, are you using EZDOK and if so which version. I haven't had much luck with it in the past which may be something to do with the fact that I am running FSX-SE. Any help would be much appreciated. Regards Richard M
***** Hi Richard - Welcome back. I do use EZDok, currentl version 1.186. It works fine on FSX-SE but does require some "encouragement". Try my videos here : ua-cam.com/video/rjdhYKh6yps/v-deo.html and here : ua-cam.com/video/84Vap2bsXEY/v-deo.html
If you find you're getting errors with EZdok, try my videos here : ua-cam.com/video/ipvy9onxRuk/v-deo.html and here : ua-cam.com/video/n1OzcKUStts/v-deo.html
As you can probably guess, EZdok presents us with real challenges!
Hi Great video. My question is how would you get there 747 to follow a flight plan like you can with the auto pilot on the 737 ? seeing as the cockpits are not the same and the controls are all different?
when u say race track do u mean traffic pattern? and great voice!
Dumb question. How do you get that view? I'm new to this. I am able to see other views but can't get that one for some reason. I'm sure it's something dumb I'm not doing. Also, I'm playing with my keyboard for now. In the older version, if I was using my keys to climb/descent, there used to be a little indicator showing me where the stick was so I would know if I was going to fast up or down (does that make sense).
Christopher Ritsch You mean that you want to zoom out? Then just hold space and scroll out
This is an excellent video; unfortunately I am using PMDG-747 so there is a little different. But thanks anyway.
Thank you!!!!
the airbus a321 is so much easier to fly compared to the boeing 747 considering all the buttons on the airbus work
What if a runway has no ils? Or you can't fit the frequency on the knobs on the radio stack? Because I can't get the runway on the nav
The cursor was not moving, can't tell what you trying to indicate on the indicators
Thanks for sharing this. How do you know what to set for heading without using the ATC?
I mean at 10:54 you set the heading 135 according to what?
Süleyman Kuyumcu always adding 90 degree to the starting heading, because 90 x 4 = 360 = circle done
I see pedals moving is that you or the autopilot - what equipment do you have while doing this?
+William Wetzel That'll be me - I'm using Cessna rudder pedals.
So you don't app hold when the diamond hits the glide scope?
So you can't sett gps and vor loc in 747 you have to use heading?
How do you get each leg of the journey??
What are the keyboard controls to fly a plane in FSX?
What was The trim setting vor Take Off and flight
can you show it to me in a live Air Plane ?
The nose of the aircraft is always are at 5-10° and never straight at the horizon line. Autopilot is on, a/thr on, spd on, trims set, eng anti-ice off. Don't know what's wrong
That's a 747 for ya. Has to do with angle of attack needed to generate lift at certain speeds. Not true for all aircraft.
It was difficult to fallow what part of the instrument you are talking about. It would be much better if you indicate clearly what button and what area you are talking about. Anyway thanks a lot.
gooooooooooood
I 'hear' you pointing with your mouse pointer but it does not show on the instruments when you use it.
Robert Langford Hi Robert - Yes, you're absolutely right. That was a 'feature' of my old recording software. Long since changed now. These days I'm using ShadowPlay for recording and Final Cut Pro for production and editing.
whats ur system specs?
Where is the GPS btton on a 747
If I chose to fly with Nav instead of GPS do I need to set the Nav hold to heading?
Yeah use GPS with Nav Hold Switch
u gotta use them both Nav and GPS
My aircraft stalled on the final turn.
I missed the runaway as I made the turn too late
Can you create a 777 tutorial video?
Hi Joseph
Do you mean the PMDG 777? I haven't purchased that one yet (but it is on my list).
How do u know heading I'm so confused
John Bon at 1:14 where it shows the gps thing towards the top in the middle where it says 045 is were your heading (u probably already new this but just in case u didn't I thought I might as well say)
at 10:53 he set the heading to 235 degrees. according to what exactly?
He wanted to make four 90 degrees turns, so he added 90 to his first heading, which was 45, and for every turn he just adds another 90 degrees.
what was your landing speed, and speed on final, nice to know. the 747 has to be faster as its very heavy.
wd..
HAAHAHAH STD
