PMDG 747 Flight Tutorial Part 5

[glasswings21]

why did they include the pushable weather button on the panel if its not going to work :) PMDG guys made this awesome aircraft i love flying but it would have been amazing if they had this WXR simulation included !

[mishakiler]

its not a transponder that is the rcas sistem

[Ezracoolie]

spreek je nederlands do you speak dutch?

[loadloadload123]

You forgot to enter the Transition Altitude :-) 

[MrDecapitatedMonkey]

um my altitude selecyoer doesn't work. It goes down, and never goes up.

[colesy93]

@MrDecapitatedMonkey Left click to make it decrease, right click to make it increase. Or you can use the scroll wheel on the mouse.

PLZ HELP, my plane goes to 10,000 feet stays there, and doesnt hold the speed, wat do i do? thx

[ogrish5]

Whats the difference between Speed Trans. and Speed Restrictions? Thanks PLEASE REPLY =)))))

[poeticmind74]

When I fly the PMDG 747, the plane looses (considerable amount) speed in mid flight. Any Suggestions?

[niepro]

You entered 220 in MCP SPD instead of the V2 speed. Is that a permissible or desirable way to depart? Also, during climbout under VNAV, the magenta speed at the top left of the speed tape went up to 251 rather than setting 220 although in Part 6, it did re-set back down to 220. Would that be normal or is that a fault of the programming by PMDG?

Thank you for your superlative work with these tutorials. Just magnificent and most welcome!

It takes a little time for the flaps to drop on this thing! lol

[OvEnPR00fPigeOn]

when i changed to spot view when you did, all my engines had smoke coming out.......i didnt do the manual startup i just loaded the aircraft automatically

help plz

[Jonthepilot1]

@OvEnPR00fPigeOn the problem is that there is a bug with loading the aircraft, so do not load the same engine type 747 twice eg. British airways RR to Cathay Pacific RR, this will trigger the smoke. If you want the same aircraft again just reload your sim and there will be no smoke

[urashimakeitaro22]

I did what you said, but I cant activate LNAV or VNAV button...

[Jonthepilot1]

@urashimakeitaro22 i think you might not have set the route properly or u have not armed the FD and AT yet

[guidodeukuzeta1234]

hi ther meloescher. whts your resolution???¿?¿

[CqWeAkYcAmZ]

thank you so much man you are a ledgend, dedicating your time to help people like me, thank you thank you THANK YOU!!!!

[lsuperior]

at 6:34 is that ai traffic, srry for the randomness

[meloescher]

Yep.

[MusicLover11325]

@meloescher this is kinda hard with all those steps.. and why do you have to set flaps 40? its suppose to be 10

[bacsaattila95]

Is the weather radar simulated on the primary flight display?Because however I'm trying I just can't turn it on.I press the WXR button but nothing happens!It's so annoying.Why do they put that button there if it's good for nothing?!

[bacsaattila95]

@lsuperior

Is the weather radar simulated on the primary flight display?Because I try to push the WXR button but nothing happens!

[englandish43]

@bacsaattila95 No, it says on the PMDG site that they do not simulate the WXR radar.

[Mr99Padda]

are youa real pilot?

[tf51d]

Up to now these tutorials have been very good, but your startup procedure in this one is wrong. To start the 744 the number 4 demand pump should be in the AUX position. the 2 and 3 bleeds should be off. Engine start order varies by engine type and company policy, I've seen 1 and 4, followed by 2 and 3. or 4, 3 then 2 and 3 together. After engine 4 start the the number 4 demand pump can be returned to AUTO. and after all engine are started, the bleed pumps returned to AUTO.

[tf51d]

"I've seen 1 and 4, followed by 2 and 3. or 4, 3 then 2 and 3 together"

Sorry that should be 2 and 1 together.

[GGGunitNextLevel]

8:34 How do you know when to enable comand ?

[meloescher]

400-500 above the ground...or you can hand fly it with the flight director.

[GGGunitNextLevel]

ok thx

[CaptEm1]

@meloescher Never use brakes when advancing throttles for takeoff. You simply advance to 70% N1, let engines stabilize, and then press TOGA and advance full throttle.

[chubuking]

great vid i use fs build much quicker lol
