Airbus A320 ILS Approaches Made Simple + Auto Land in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 | Tutorial
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 сер 2020
- The most simplest way of setting up an ILS Approach and Auto Land in game in an Airbus A320 Neo. The beginning part works for all aircraft where you have the sim pre program everything in for you in the welcome screen. This was not the best of flying conditions as it was next to a hurricane Laura on live weather but it goes to show that it still works even in the worst of conditions!

The reason ATC is telling you to descend/climb when it appears you already are at the altitude - is because your altimeter is set to standard (29.92). Below 18,000 ft, press B to set the barometric pressure given by ATC. Above 18,000ft, all aircraft transfer to “flight levels”, and everyone sets their altimeter to 29.92. 18,000ft becomes FL180. This allows for everyone to be on the same page on their altimeter. Hope that helps
This is only accurate for the united states, in some countries the transition altitude is as low as 6000 ft
@@brandondalton3420 yep we got transition alt at even 4500ft here xD
This has to be the best tutorial I have ever watched. I could understand it even more than other videos. I successfully caught a glide-scope, landed a bit too early, felt proud of myself, and now I’m doing a night flight from the Philippines to Taiwan
That’s what it’s all about ! I’m glad I was able to help you enjoy your sim experience even more so. Now play with the weather and make it more challenging ! Happy landings
Alright thanks!
Thank you. After months with the game I nailed my first ils approach after watching this video
Wooo glad to hear it! Well done 👏🏼
once i hit 1000ft i fly on my own. good tutorial
i fly on my own when i get to 300ft
9 minutes in but you clearly explained approach mode! Thank you! There is no video dedicated to it! Thanks!
This tutorial is perfect you made it simple to understand compared to some UA-camrs videos. Flight simulator needs something like this since the sim only really teaches you to land a Cessna which is very different from the jetliners
Ah love reading comments like this :) you’re totally right, general aviation is more focused on in this sim but I think it’s because it’s far less intimidating fo’s someone new. Glad I could help keep practicing :)
I agree
Thanks for the video! Been playing this game for over a year and never knew how to use the auto land feature till now. Tried it three times and works great.
You've just done a massive favor for me I now realize that the ATC is at fault and not me! I constantly kept "Going Missed" until I watched your video, many thanks
Thank you! Great explanation, gonna try it out when I get home tonight 🙃
This video had everything I go through as well! the bugs LOL.. glad im not alone, especially when starting at a waypoint .. and wondering why the AP altitude isnt working but then realizing its the thrtl. Things like that. You were figuring it out as you were going too. This helped a lot!! Thank you : )
Perfect tutorial for someone very new to aviation like me! Keep it up!
Thank you sir! I’m glad to have been of help. I have many other tutorials that may interest you and more on the way. Happy new year ;)
This is perfect man, just what I was looking for.
This tutorial is perfect you made it simple, This was clear and easy to understand! Now i can land my plane safty! xD
Ah thanks for such nice words! 🙌🏼 happy landings :)
Thank you so much for this! Helped me out a lot!
One of the most easy and straight forward tutorials i've seen so far!
Thank you!
Thanks mate also my first landing smile from ear to ear
Wooo congrats !
Good fun buddy enjoyed this and learned as well
Haha, love this tutorial because it's so imperfect. I mean it most sincerely, feels human and will make me feel good even when I botch it up :)
This is why I love doing videos unscripted. We learn through little mistakes because that’s what we do in the real world I thought it’ll help people get confidence from it lol
good tutorial, man. Thank you! Got my sub!
Thanks for the vid! I’m currently playing this sim on the series X and this helps a lot. Just like you, I’m always fighting with the autopilot to go to my desired altitude 😂
iam the same,cant get the hang of altitude yet.
What Internet speed do you need to run the game smooth on Xbox X I'm thinking to get one just for this game 😆
Thanks for the lesson because of you I have just completed my first landing!
well that was excellent, cant wait to try it.
Thanks for the tutorial! Going to give this a bash now, but guarantee the moment I load the game up it will all be over my head again haha.
Keep watching it on your phone and go along with it as I do just make sure your thrust levers are set in the right place and auto thrust is on. Make sure your flaps are fully extended on final approach and your speed is set to managed by having the orange dot displayed on the FCU panel
Tq so much man for teaching me these basics so simply!!!!
Thanks for this video!!...going to practice this in the 320!!
My God ill be able to land proper now! i was a wild animal before lmao!! thanks buddy.
Haha no problem 😉
Nice one...I didn't want to get tied up with the FMC...so this is much more what i'm used to Thanks
Yep much more convenient way. I still recommend you check that the ils approach is there on the fmc it can be changed easily if you need to select another one, instead of having to quit flight and re load it again
@@OzzySafa Thanks for the headsup..I shall do that. Really good that you've taken the time to make a video to help the newcomers...keep it up..and happy flying
Thank you very much for your amateur tutorial. I find it way easier to understand compared to those "PRO"
Just a couple of things to correct:
- The localizer refers to the horizontal axis but vertical is called the glideslope.
- The white diamonds would still show when the LS is turned on even if no localizer is picked up. The pink ones will not.
Great tutorial for beginners like me👍
Bhavin Dholakia thank you !
Awesome tutorial, thanks a lot. Just smoothly landed at Brussels :) first time succesfully captured a glideslope lol :)
We’ll done my friend ! You’ll have much more fun now. Try it in foggy weather it gets much more exciting!
helped me out a lot cheers new to this sim
Enjoy it and keep practicing on different places ;) happy landings
Thanks man! I appreciate that!
very good explanation, easy to understand, will be following this when i go on the sim next time as i cant get the plane to follow the green route line.
You’ll ace it when you try it next time ;)
Great tutorial 👌thank you
Very usefull, thank you !
Nice video helped me alot 😀
Thank you very much easy to follow for new flyer
Glad it was of help 🙌🏼
great tutorial..well explained!!
Happy landings sir
Thank you for this! I can land now :)
My pleasure ;) keep practicing
Thanks Ozzy Great!
Brilliant and easy to follow tutorial thank you 👍🏻
Michael Connell I loved that it was of help to you :)
@@OzzySafa following on from this i cant seem to get the altitude to show up on the screen once CSTR has been press wonder what I'm missing any ideas
Michael Connell not all places have altitude constraints. Check that you have chose an ils runway in the main menu when checking approach. Apart from that it might be a bug. Also check the zoom level
@@OzzySafa ok thank you
Just got it on xbox this is a massive help !!
Ah woooo I’m glad I could help you man I want to get the console just to play this
@@OzzySafa its amazing mate, if you need ideas for another video how about same video but dream liner next ?
@@seanmcglynn6377 sounds like a plan
;)
Like the video mate . Your just like me , I'm always forgetting at least one thing ( brakes ect ) .
It’s a gift from the plane gods 😂
i mean it could be worse, idk how but i forgot one thing... landing gear 😂
@@taylorsteadman2668 happens sometimes
thanks dude!
Thanks a lot mate it really helped.
I’m stoked to be of help 🙌🏼
@@OzzySafa Yeah it helped with my new video, thank you.
Broke my spine on that touchdown.
Otherwise great tutorial
Absolutely true what you have said about ATC it can be weird at times, ie climb to 7,000 feet when fifteen miles from touchdown and ILS engaged, cancel flight following at this time ?? why ?? Also when selecting the destination air port how can you select the runway to land into the wind ? Having said that the FS is simply brilliant. One more comment the ground services, ie pushback, connect the walkway can be very odd at times. Finally don't ask the first officer to do anything other than take off as he gets totally confused, well at least he does with me. Has anybody else had issues with first officer ?
ty.... cool tutorial
thanks for this as I will need to auto land once msfs comes out for xbox series x because I'm new to this and have a lot to learn. seeing all those cockpit buttons is making me nervous as I haven't a clue what they all do.
You’re very welcome! Can’t wait to play this on Xbox too in the summer! Glad my video could be helpful to you :)
Great tutorial my friend, thank you so much!
Your very welcome
Thanks for the video, it was thorough. As an added thing... "more better" and "more lower" shouldnt be said together, Its just "better" or "lower"... or you could say "best or lowest" if you wanted to emphasise them
Yes I totally agree with you I got too excited during my tutorial and forgot how to speak like a normal person
thank man
17:54 that landing LMAO
Thank you sir thank you so much
Same procedure fenix and flybywire like video?
The struggle with only keyboard and mouse is real xd
Thank you i land my plane safely
Yeah buddy wooohooo
Hi ozzy...thank you so much for the videos! 😊i have a problem..sometimes the flight plan you choose from the world map don t memorize in the computer the ila frequency of the roadway you choose (for example liverpool roadway 09) so you have to insert it manually in the airplane (a320 neo) can you explain gow to do it? Thank you very much (sorry for my italianized english😢😢)
Yes this can help for Xbox
Can a real A320 land by itself in ILS/approach mode? I tried it in MSFS by keeping autopilot on all the way. It did show 'flare' on top of the PFD around 30 feet above the runway but the plane took a nosedive resulting in a hard landing.
Yes it can. Depends if the airports runways ils system supports it. Depends one which CAT type it is.
It takes a nose dive because the throttle goes to idle……which is why you should flare around 30-50 ft hope this helps
Throttle to idle at 30ft then flare so the main gear touch the runway 1st.
btw you dont need to listen to game ATC unless your on VATSim
Hi what are the auto pilot settings you applied
Did you observe FD don't follow glide slope ? Another bug
Serge Courcy I noticed when I watched it back after. I’m sure it’ll be ironed out in the upcoming updates
How do you get it to descend and land on the runway? I DID put it into approach mode, but my plane stayed at 3,000 feet and flew right over the airport..there must be more to it than just turning on approach mode
Then you have done something wrong watch the video again. Make sure your thrust levers are set at climb. If you flew over that means you were above the localiser and it wasn’t signalling your plane down. Pay attention to the diamonds on the display. And make sure your flaps are set
I've found as recently as this week that the Series X version of FS2020 bugs out when following IFR/ILS; Coms tells you to be at one FL and the FMS tells you to be at a completely different level. As a real world pilot this is quite annoying. As a sim player its extremely frustrating. And the fact that you can't actually utilize the FMS system on the Xbox version... *womp*
You didn't reset your altimeter. That's why they kept telling you to go descend etc.
i just cant figure out landing i can never get lined up to the runway when using the auto pilot im putting in every command needed but im always just to high and the plane doesnt seem to respond when its time to descend
Are you pressing the approach button once you have intercepted the localiser? When your pink/ purple diamonds begin to start lining up that’s when you press approach on the auto pilot. Is that you in your picture btw? If so great physique
Hey, i try to Land the a320. The Same Route and i watched your ils tutorial. But as soon i retract the flaps, the nose rises up and the a320 climbs. Even without AP i cant Push the nose down again. So what i am doing wrong?
M W is the thrust levers in the climb gate and is auto thrust on ?
How did you get all of those liveries
That's same problem I find with ATC, I don't remember how many landing I've missed because the wrong reported altitude by ATC. Can you do a tutorial on what to do when you miss the landing and you have to do again an ILS approach and landing? Thank (I can't find how to land again via AP when I miss an approach, don't know what to do then, I'm running in circle by listening to ATC)
you can report missed approach to the atc and they will vector you into the approach again
@@OzzySafa yes, I do, but I start running in circle via HDG, I have every time to ask for next way manually and never get back to the final approach route via their indication.
@@nerdMike I’ll see if I can make a useful tutorial
@@OzzySafa thank you!
How do I get my Airbus A319/A320 to say "CAT2/CAT3 in the PFD?
when i load in the flight path isnt on the mfd and it is just a line coming from the plane anyone know the fix
I have the Xbox version, and still getting used to it. For the Speed Brakes, you can either do "Armed," or a percentage from 0%-100%. If you want to have them engage, should they be armed or set to 0%, with Auto-Brakes set to MED/MAX? I also struggle with the approach and also being at the right altitude at the right time w/ the right speed. Seems like I can never get the managed altitude/speed/etc. to engage, and I have to manually set my altitudes and speed.
Speed breaks set them to arm and make sure you slow down in steps with each stage of flap opened. Make sure when full flaps engage approach speed is near 140kts if it’s faster it’ll be harder for the flare . Auto break set it to medium and you should be fine make sure the thrust setting is correctly set to climb
@@OzzySafa so if they are ARMED, then they will catch with the autobreaks? I also didn't know it mattered to have it in the climb detent, since AutoThrust was active. I have it on Xbox, and the hardest part I have is trying to flare at them end, while also holding the B button to Retard my thrust on landing. Thinking of getting the turtle beach flight setup when it comes out.
@@TheRealBigT1984 yes the thrust levers being on climb is the most important. Otherwise the auto thrust won’t work properly. Try putting the thrust to idle when you hear the 30 call out and it should give it enough time to slow down some airbus pilots do this in real life. As soon as the wheels touch engage revers thrust but yes having physically thrust levers will make it much easier instead of pressing buttons.
@@OzzySafa thanks a lot! Tried it tonight and had my smoothest landing by far. Speed was good, spoilers/brakes popped up on landing, etc. Kept it on AP until around 200 feet, then turned it off and flared around 30, while setting thrust to Idle.
@@TheRealBigT1984 woohoo well done 👍🏼 keep practicing if you want a challenge try it with one engine out ;)
I can’t get the air speed below 190 knots, how much flaps do you use before the bend to final?
Then twist the speed dial on the auto pilot panel to 140kts but when you mouse over it make sure you engage that speed by pulling towards you , and make sure auto thrust button is toggled on and full flaps set then plane should slow it down to that itself. Remember the thrust levers must be set exactly at the climb setting
@@OzzySafa I figured out I wasn’t using enough flaps.
Tried this on two attempts. As I go to touch down the plane points it’s nose up and lifts off about 20 feet. What have I done wrong?
Could it be that my throttle was still set forward even though auto throttle was on?
you have to idle the throttle before you touch down. but not doing so wouldnt be the cause of your problem. make sure the speed is managed and the thrust levers are in the climb gate
@@OzzySafa I’ll give it another go tonight. Everything was going perfect until the moment just before touching down. Real strange I’ll check lever are correct later. Maybe I’ll have a look at the flyby wire a320 too
My plane doesn't flare on it's own with auto land, it just falls hard at around 50ft. Am I doing something wrong? It does display land and then flare but it still falls hard.
AP1: on
Auto Thrust: on
Flaps: Full
Speed Brake: Armed
Next to ap1 there should be a approach button that must be on too for auto land also depends on some airports. The airport has to support the cat type of ils approach.
@@OzzySafa approach is also on and it still doesn’t flare properly . When flare comes on is when it falls hard.
R Y A N A I R landing
he needs to get a job at ryanair lmao
Never flown with them but thanks 💥 😂
@@OzzySafa they have the wost landings
When the plane touches the runway, it starts going up. Is this a bug? Btw great tutorial bro 👌
IceMan do you have the spoilers armed and engage reversers ?
The landing is too hard and the plane bounces
How do I arm spoilers and reverse trust?
IceMan click and drag the spoilers upwards until you see a white mark appear. Reversers you have to make a key binding for but I use a button on my joystick or you can manually drag the thrust levers to the revers position by clicking and dragging them but it has to be fast
@@OzzySafa I've done that
when landing in ILS, my speed doesn't drop like yours. it remains at 160
Make sure you are in manage speed mode with the yellow/orange circle on the autopilot and the thrust levers in the climb gate
@@OzzySafa oh sorry, because I am using the addon, the error was caused by the addon.
When i put in my flight plan the plane doesnt turn on its own......why?
You have to press ap1 for it to do that
Can someone help me, because when I am landing on approach mode just seconds before touchdown the autopilot bring the nose down making a bouncy landing
Is the thrust levers set in the climb gate ?
@@OzzySafa yes it is
@@etsfan1863 okay you must make sure your flaps are full
@@OzzySafa they are, I think the plane is ready for landing and the computer at 350ft above ground says land on the PFD
@@etsfan1863 and auto thrust is on?
Missed to set qnh, wind, mda, dh on fms. And landing at 750ft/min is not exactly a butter lol
Can’t please them all
Im sorry i just dont get it cause when i turn the LS on it doesnt show me those purple things there and my plane doesnt just land on its own
Edit: I get it now.😅 Thank you so much
I don't understand about the diamond and turn on approach
When the two purple/pink diamonds start to move to the centre then you press approach button. The vertical one is indicating you’re aligning with the glide slope and the horizontal is indicating you’re aligning with the runway. Hope this helps
the AP in fs2020 is a BIG SHIT , a lot of altitude bug , you have to use the V/S to solve this issue
🤣yes I still have to play with the v/s still to this day
@@OzzySafa fsx was the best simulator , fs2020 is beautiful but ...
Which indicator shows to set the flaps?
Next to the parking break you will see the flaps lever and it will also show on the middle screen efis
@@OzzySafa Thank you, yes I know that. My question is how do you know when to set the flaps? Is there any instrument showing that?
@@crocetti4643 the efis which is the middle screen where it shows you the apu and egt info you can also choose to show the slats and flaps position
@@OzzySafa Thanks again. My question is: how do I know when to operate (to pull down) the flaps during the prepations vor landing? Has it something to do with the distance?
@@crocetti4643 around 230kts is a good time to start setting flaps. Wait for the auto thrust to slow the plane down to around that speed
You have too much fuel on board to land. You must have less than 1000 kg fob
Yes thanks for pointing that out but it doesn’t matter for the demonstration of this video.
Nothing works for me!!
Just makes my want to pull my hair out!@
More confused than I started
Just keep practicing. You’ll pick it up
İ dont care abput auto landing i always land with myself
Respect
Made simple, yeah sure.
I’m still confused as ever.
Keep practicing keep following the steps you’ll get there in the end.
Very frustrating
My gosh the Airbus in 2020 is soooo unaccurate. I mean there isn't even an ECAM-Memo and stuff! This is ridiculous. xD
JG4 Nutellaexperte download the a32nx project it has a ecam etc
this was a very confusing "tutorial" lol full of problems you are troubleshooting midflight and ur doing a ton of stuff and u dont explain what u are doing at times mate
The real plane can auto land with only one autopilot engaged
Yes but you procedurally want two for redundancy. Incase one fails...
@@OzzySafa yes, you always do engage both autopilots even when the intention is carry out a manual landing.
Your video stated you needed both autopilots to autoland, you don’t. If you despatched with one of the autopilots inoperative then the plane would still be autoland capable.
@@richardohughes fair point I must have been procedurally speaking. In real life if I were carrying passengers I would divert if I had to rely on one auto pilot.
@@OzzySafa that wouldn’t be a reason to divert. The airbus can be dispatched with one autopilot inop. I don’t think your employers would be very happy if you diverted because of that.
@@richardohughes it would be a decision with the captain this is where CRM comes into play but if I were the skipper carrying out an auto land in low vis with 1 AP inop, its a definite no from me. It could be justified in a meeting.
Please plzzz plz pray for me that I get admission in masab tank polytechnic institute for mechanical engineering....who knows my luck was waiting for your prayers to change....
Sure !
Why not make 10 min video into 5min remove unnecessary talks and confusion stick to the topic
Yes next time
