Thank you, Captain, from the start to the end of this masterpiece. This is flight simulation taken really seriously. I will save this video to watch so many times as required, just like a classroom.
Thanks for all you do to help make the Zibo mod the best of any 737, payware or otherwise. It is amazing to have your tutorials and knowledge to make our sim experience as real as possible.
If I had to rate this video out of 10 would give it an 11! just awesome tutorial great job....and to Zibo mod I dip my hat extremely awesome what you'll have given to the X-Plane community, this is just speechless work and it's great that modifications are still coming, best 737-800 EVER!!!, keep up the awesome job! looking forward for more updates.
Great tutorial, thanks so much. I'm lucky enough to know a retired pilot who has helped me with all this but it's great to watch it all happening on screen with your expert commentary. 👍👍👍
Thanks Robin, I would've loved for a 737 pilot to have given me advice/tutorials years ago! I'm just returning the favour to what was my aspiring self! FD2S
It's amazing to see how the community works - you teach us how to fly the damn thing yet others show you how to set X-Plane up etc. Thanks again for the top-notch tutorial! Cheers :-)
Cool! It goes without saying make sure you consult your approved training material/official guidance. These videos are more for entertainment/reference but are NOT a substitute or replacement , more an insight in how to apply a particular set of SOP's See you up there! FD2S
Absolutely fantastic videos dude. So clear and articulate in your explanations. We are so fortunate that we have a real world 737 pilot like you who gives his own time to share real world operational procedures with us humble simmers who work office jobs and live our virtual pilot dreams in Xplane 11. Thank you to you and Zibo!!! Respect.
Well, I really gotta say there is no stone unturned, you fill in any information about real life procedures. Such good explanation as always, thank you so much!
Probably the best tutorial I've come across so far (just been simming for a month or two). Thank you! Just changed from MSFS2020 to Xplane 11 as my PC is desperately overdue for a makeover. Still running a GTX970 and a 12 year old i7 haha. Struggles to play MSFS2020 unless settings are minimal but plays XP11 fine.
I'd watched this once before, but I hadn't flown the Zibo yet. I've learned how to fly the plane fairly well, but I haven't attempted a cold and dark startup yet, watched this again and now feel confident I can manage it. Can't thank you enough! Now I feel much more so that I've got a handle on all the systems and startup procedures.
@@flightdeck2sim I meant to try one weeks ago but was busy moving and didn't have time for simming until recently again. I feel like you gotta block out extra time for a cold and dark! Whereas just pushing back and taxing out doesn't take that long, really.
@@flightdeck2sim I did a dry run at Miami Intl., following a flight I did the other night on Zibo to Jamaica, I followed your tutorial exactly and got the cold and dark startup done! I had some minor trouble transitioning to APU Power, bus, etc., but I managed to fix that. Did my pushback, so that's accomplished. Otherwise I was chuffed. P.S. Nevermind, I managed to figure out XCamera and set up my basic camera views for the Zibo. That should solve those problems. The plane's impossible to fly properly without them set, since it requires frequent switching to the overhead, pilot view, pedestal, FMC, etc.
Crikey,..there are some great tutorials here on UA-cam but to actually find a whole channels worth of tutorials by a Real Pilot is fantastic. So glad I stumbled across your channel. Many thanks for your work and for showing us simulator fans how things should really be done as in the real world.
Looking forward to learning all this. Thanks for the video.

Brilliant as always! One tip I world like to share for those who don't already know about it is when putting in a long route in the FMC. To save yourself a bit of time you can stick to putting in just the airways and the waypoints connecting the airways will populate automatically as long as the routing is correct. So let's say you have a route like this -> A A1 B B1 C C1 D. In this case you could put in A followed by A1, B1 and C1 where B and C would be automatically inserted for you. If not using saved routes and when doing longer flights it's quite convenient!
Great video! Whether you are an expiring pilot or just a simmer that wants complete immersion I think these videos do an incredible job of showing real world procedures. This is good stuff that you cant get out of a manual. Yeah you can read the norm procedures for a 737 and just do them, but to here why exactly you do them from a real pilot is priceless knowledge. Thank you for doing these videos and keep them coming!!!
Wow this is straight to the point and really simple!! thanks alot for this i'm just a random 14 year old who loves planes and i just couldn't figure out why i was getting IRS warning and no intruments!! what a detailed video i also learned how to properly start the engines and everything else XD
Thank you so much for this amazing video. Now I can fly the Zibo all the way from cold and dark to the gate after landing! :) Still need to learn ATC talk fluently, so I haven't tried VATSIM yet.
Thank you so much for this tutorial FD2S! I was able to organize my checklist to align to real life ops. Thank you for supporting us simers. I definitely missed my calling in life but this mod and your tutorials allow me to live the ATP dream somewhat. 🙂👍
just excellent..being older the first thing i thought was he sounds young!...and in my ignorance whenever i see young pilots i always feel less safe..so reasuring and impressive to hear how knowledgable and well trained you are ... seeing things from a more educated perspective now ..god speed
Hi Lee! Let me dispel a myth! I started flying the 737 with 280 hours total time. I had a lot to learn and I still to this day as an instructor teaching people how to fly the 737 have lots to learn! Yes with more hours does come more experience but regardless of experience, you have to still pass the same check every 6 months. Sometimes the old boys can struggle with certain elements of the operation where as a fresh cadet straight out of the type rating would be more proficient with dealing a situation they recently practiced in the sim. With more experience you develop better decision making and exposure to different situations but ability can vary considerably FD2S
thanks very imformative sir. and ur other tutorials. I especially like it when u live stream. I can now start a 738x. not proper procedures maybe. but can start it...
Thanks for the top quality video once again! I was wondering if you could please do a video about high altitude operations like thrust settings, pack setting and pressurisation settings? Keep up the good work!
Absolutely amazed by the quality of your content. Actually took a pen and a paper to take down notes so as not to miss any of the information. One question if I may, do you actually still do a TCAS system test on the real aircraft or can that be left out? Thanks a lot.
Great tutorial. Can you do a segment on how to properly load the aircraft with cargo and fuel? I'm using simbrief and the zibo panel (?) on the left side of the flight deck.
Haha, I'm just one of the guys that tests it to make sure it's as close to the real aircraft as possible! You have ZIBO and his small team to thank! FD2S
I flew 320 for 8 years, now I've been upgraded to Captain but i'll probably go on Boeing 737, so I am really enjoying your videos, they are really helpfull and professional. Basically all the Stuff that it's done automatically by Airbus on boeing it's done by the F/O 😆👍🏻 Safe flights.
Great video, really helped, where do you get your airport charts from? I can't find the ones you have on the internet and it would really benefit me to have something like that, thanks.
Thank you for this tutorial. Some parts are a bit too fast for nubes like me. I couldn't get the course setting coordinates part, from where they came...:-D
Hello Captain, Thank you for sharing!! Qty about CRZ/Wind. You are saying Take it fro TOC. I See also ad page 1 from the flightplan sheet AVG Wind. Why not use this?

Hi Michael, thanks! It’s just the default XP11 settings. You can assigned commands on the keyboard which I use to move and pan around the flight deck! FD2S
Absolutely brilliant tutorial mate! Helped a lot for me :)) Do you happen to have a file that has the entire checklist online? Been looking for it but none of them have the latest version for the Zibo. Many thanks!
1:27 Is it me because I LOVE the ding sound the GPU switch makes
I love it too! So satisfying
You and Zibo are legends. Thanks so much for the time and effort you put into this project
ZIBO and his team are the legends! I just test and compare to the real aircraft!

Hello Captain, Thank you for sharing!! Qty about CRZ/Wind. You are saying Take it fro TOC. I See also ad page 1 from the flightplan sheet AVG Wind. Why not use this? Also ad page 3 the payload section and fuel they talk about POSS EXTRA. for the extra fuel RESERVES. Now I'am a little bit confused. Great because I must learn now. Thanks and bye bye from The Netherlands and happy to see you back again.
Good Question!
We use TOC wind so VNAV give us the most efficient speed climbing to TOC.
You can update the average wind on the LEGS - RTE DATA page to give you a more accurate ETA/Fuel Burn. (Should have explained!)
Not sure what you're referring to regarding POSS EXTRA?
FD2S
Missed the fire extinguisher squib circuitry green lights test? ..oxygen masks? ;) Great video, thanks for sharing!
Well spotted, thanks for highlighting. It’s so easy to miss these things when recording and explaining everything! Will edit this in at a later date! 👍🏼

flightdeck2sim I agree! Haha no worries. Thanks again for making these great vids :)
Hi! Great video! Do you have a checklist that goes over these topics?
This may be a slightly weird request but I'd really love a video explaining all the different noises etc you get when the elec-hyd pumps come on and the fuel pumps. Would be cool to fly on the 737 knowing what each noise is and what's actually happening when you hear it. Would make a cool video I think.
Hi Andy! It will be two things you can hear primarily, especially if sat over the wings. The Fuel Pumps and the Electric Hydraulic Pumps!
