  • why did u raise flaps on landing they help u slow down

  • My ILS landings are all screwed up now. last one I did crash landed me at the end of the runway

  • nicely flown man ;) hahaha you flared about 10° thats a little too much :D

  • what airoport?

  • You turn off the ils beeping sound the same way you turned it on. Simply click on the nav1 button at the bottom of the radio stack.

  • Is your altitude hold switch on. :)

  • @JamesMac329k If you are on the Localizer you wont need Altitude Hold

  • Why Do I Crash I Do Everythin Plzz Reply Man

  • @fsxgamer1 okay bud heres what you have to do: be centered (as best you can) to the ILS (that green arrrow thingy) and then as you get closer use your altitude to slowly drop your altitude and then when YOU GET IN THE ILS ZONE ONLY thats when u can take off the altitude hold adn hit APP, but usually it does it itself, also, make sure u have both a horizontal and vertical glide slope (the vert and horiz. line next to the attitiude indicator) if you have just the horiz, it will crash, u need both

  • how did u get rid of that annoying ils beeping sound in this video???

  • you rectracted flaps in touchdown? it never does...flaps won't exist if people rectract them on landing!!!

  • Nice Trackir calibration.

    Now to really bring things to life, try something called "Multi Crew Experience", voice control for FSX and FS9. You get to ask your virual co-pilot to turn the dials for you, and you can talk to native FS ATC via the microphone. Goolr it up LOL :-))

  • @bigsparrow1 Is Multi Crew Exprience a download, if so, is it free.And tell me were to get it.

  • I cant intercept the glide scope :( ATC tells me to maintain 2.500 and then the lil g/s is running out of my primary flight display :P

  • hey just a curious question whats your specs?

  • I love that approach. I used to go to the Starbucks that was right at the end of RWY09. What a good sight of the planes from there...Ahh...good memories.

  • why does everyone zoom out so far? the cockpit seems stretched. I've found out that a .40 or .50 zoom is the most realistic.

  • wow TrackIR is sooooo coool!!!

  • How do you know what airports what and where you are? I'm pretty new to FSX and the forums are pretty dead. So I have no idea how to read the initials or the fancy terms for anything.

    -Cheers

  • why did you turn back up the flaps after touching ground?

  • The reason you may want to retract flaps upon landing (short field) is because it maximizes braking effectiveness. Retracting flaps decreases lift which causes an increase in weight... this weight on the wheels is a good thing for braking power!

  • well i think that by most reason you should leave them as down as you can so making a landing as slow as you can and in the runway the flaps make speed low faster, as you know on air you need more engine power as you turn more and more down them

  • TRACK IR PEOPLE

  • that camera view is an addon for FSX Deluxe

  • Your a camera view addon for FSX Deluxe.

  • @Ethaninja ????

  • Lol sorry. But nah it isn't so much of an addon than it is a hardwear. Have a look at the TRACK IR. Thats what he is using.

  • Its TrackIR

  • Ah tomato-tomato

  • How did you do that view (camera control) on 2:05

  • just press SPACE + move the mouse

  • how rotate image??

  • hey dude how do you do atc without the atc window

  • Did you get an answer to the question about no atc window.. I was real curious about that too..

  • whoa! how'd you zoom into the instrument panel like that in the begining?? that was bad asH!!

  • its track ir u can buy it but its a lot of money i want to get one i might get one u get like a headset with a sensor and u can zoom in by moving ur head into the screen and u dont use a hatswitch on a joystick you move around with your head like as if your there

  • I finally got my first landing with ILS! It wasn't perfect, but it was good for the first time!

  • You forgot speed braker and reserve thrust?

  • Nice Vid though 4/5!

  • or I mean lock the heading...

  • hmm I think u shouldnt have set the heading to autoheading

  • It's always interesting to watch a sim pilot with no skilz set up the autopilot / autothrottle to fly an aprpoach and then take over at 300' above the runway. Good job!

  • hi i want to ask something

    what is the auto-land.i disconnect the auto-pilot before landing by 20 miles.

  • read the steps that this dude does it in the video info

  • HELL YEAH just landed my first auto-landing flight on this same exact approach to runway 9 in ksan my home town=D

  • whars the best landingspeed on a 737

  • 145knt in normal conditions

  • i use 155 most of the time on short flights

  • i use 130-140knt

  • you dont land at ksan from off the coast. you take off towards the coast and land towards the coast.

  • so true, in RL. i always go down to the airport to watch the planes and i have never, NEVER in my life seen a plane land or takeoff on runway 9. always on runway 27

  • im really confuse... i know it may be a dumb question... but do we always have to use ILS when we land... or do we do it manually it what scenario do we use ils. Do we always have to use ILS or manual?

  • you don't have to do an ils i do not know how to do an ils im trying to find out how i do manuals for now pilots use both but mostly mixed like at 150 feet when doing an ils most pilots turn off autopilot and then land it itself for a smoother landing if everything in the plane is alright working correctly an autoland/ils is as safe as a manual land

  • Comment removed

  • It is understood that in these more sophisticated NAV systems that it does more things for you than just a portable GPS in a Cessna. However I do have a question... When you tune to the ILS NAV frequency and turn it to active, do you still have to dial in the heading of the runway or is it automatically done for you when you use the approach hold switch? Also, what switch allows for auto-descent for the correct glideslope?

  • You have to dial in the runway heading in to the "CRS" (course) window. Once that is dialed in, you can select "Nav" to join you up with the localizer. once established on the glide slope you can hit "App" for approach and the plane will maintain the glideslope and localizer all the way down to the runway!

  • what exactly is an ILS landing/approach??

  • google.

  • You use the aircrafts instruments to "Keep you on rails" on approach.

    Very challenging in low visibility conditions and a head rush when you do it right.

  • it's when an aircraft practically lands by itself, when the setting on the ILS NAV frequency is properly configured. ILS stands for Instrument Landing System.

  • When you landed ILS, was your FD (Flight Director on or off?) It looks like it's in the on position.

  • Yes, FD is always on when your AP is on

  • and when you turn you should always look at the ground to ensure flight level

  • how do you zoom in and out like that

  • With " = " and " - "

  • + and -

  • tsk tsk tsk. before you land, press Shift+1 or F10 and put autobrakes to 2. dont use wheel brakes like that

  • Pilots just use the autobrake in rain, snow or hard wind. And for brake you are using flaps and "spoilers"

  • I´m a pilot that´s not true SSKtobbe

  • My uncle is pilot in Sweden, and he tell me that your not useing autobrake in good weather condition!

  • hello, why did you removed the flaps so soon as you touched the ground? when you activate spoilers, flaps work as a air drag. i believe... am i right?

    Smoth landing by the way... are you using only keyboard or a yoke?

    Cheers!

  • You are right.

  • hey everybody when im trying 2 do an ILS landing the plane sets it to ID and loses control does any1 kno what i have 2 do i tryed this with loads of planes thanks very much ,this will really help alot i apprecieta it

  • good landing men

  • dont retract flaps during rollout, except on a short field operation, especially flying without with an empty right sight....good job otherwise

  • Comment removed

  • on landing i have to set full flaps? please answer me

  • yes u need to have full flaps

  • in actual fact you can land the 737 with 30degrees flaps. Look at the kneeboard in FSX

  • where is the localiser and glideslope?

  • on the primary flight display 9 the main screen on the left hand side of the captains view

  • I used trackIR head tracking for the camera movements

  • this seems like a new airport, ill fly to it right now haha, nice vid

  • (continued)If you look in almost all the videos on youtube, no one does that, not even the pilots in fact, never do something like this.

    I have no more claims for you, lol :D

    Keep it up, and as i say.

  • (Continued) You can't have your heading on whilst having the approach hold on because it will over-ride the approach hold and it will have no effect and you will keep in the same line.

    Also, I mentioned in the 1st comment about it having vertical and horizontal. You can have your altitude hold on but when it reaches the glide slope it automatically disengages. Leave it disengaged, it helps your plane descend to the runway. Hope I helped.

  • i keep the heading hold on while i manually adjust the attitude and altitude

  • I don't know how to zoom in like he did in the virtual cockpit but however he did he should tell us.

    You put on APP hold when they tell you EXPECT VECTORS FOR ILS, instead of following their route, which would be constant fiddling, you use ILS landing to automatically go to the middle of the runway.

    You must always turn off the heading when captured the glide slope. The glide slope is both horizontal and vertical.

    You can't have your heading on whilst... (read my second comment, out of space)

  • Hmm.. no that just pans the view around, but he is zooming and leaning etc..

  • Hi! What addon are you using for that smooooth camera movements to the instruments?

    My FSX doesn't do that...

  • He's using TrackIR, its a sensor you attach to your monitor and it tracks your head movement so that when you turn your head ect. it moves the camera in the game. I want one but i don't have a spare $120.

  • hey...did u turn the heading autopilot off when you captured the glide slope

  • no that was the app hold

  • why do you set the flaps of when you made a touchdown?

  • need you rase the flaps after touchdown

  • Better in X-plane though;)

  • Very fun..Take off Rwy 27 @ MMTJ and fly IFR to KSAN in no visibility..Thats a fun little flight.

  • when exactly do you press APP approach hold. Is this done when when you are alighned with the runway of what?

  • What SgtSiemens said, when do you press app approach hold?

  • when you get a cleared ils approach

  • I am just wondering, when you set up an ILS/landing, I see for a runway there is a ILS frequency and heading. I understand that you put the frequency in Nav1 buy where do you put the ILS heading, in the heading or the course?

  • course

  • You don't have to put it anywhere. When you put the heading into Course it makes it easier to read the ILS. The heading is just telling you in which direction the runway goes so that you know how to approach the ILS

  • you dont need to. ive doon it with just the freq

  • i didnt put insutrument

    it was other one

  • If you look fast the cockpit ... it is like an bombardier cockpit hahaah...

    nice vid

    !!

  • Thanks for the video, it was very instructional.

  • mate.... instead of breaking manually turn on the auto-breaks on setting 1 or two... use 3 in an emergency

  • good graphics!

  • on the Plates, upper-left top, will be the Mag.Rwy Approach course. exmp: rwy 24, could be 244 degree's, etc... that's what you have to enter (scroll) into your HSI or VOR instrument to see acurate rwy and Localizer guidance. i also understand you can get the rwy.course from inside the FSX Fllight Planner, but you have to Pause your flight, and go into the Map, and click on the Airport. i don't usually do this, i enter my flight with all paperwork in hand, just like in the real world.

  • WOW, you have a beast of a computer, yes i understood everything you said very well. Thanks alot for your help, appreciate it. Btw what country do you live in ? Thanks

  • Nevada, USA baby! lol yes, didn't really pay attention, but can see your in UK. ( sorry, any ponce can see by your Username- Manchester, that your across the pond!) great to chat.

    do you use charts? they can really expand the Realism and fun of simming. I had to teach myself from some books and other reading, and even "trial by fire" to interpret, but once acquired, wouldn't do without. Cheers!

  • how do you get the GPS up??? please give me an answer soon!!

  • Shift + 3

  • how do you move so smoothly inside the cockpit?

  • when do you activate the nav button on the ap section? and when or wh do u press the app button ? cheers

  • You press the nav button normally, about 30nm away, or when you are on final.(for an ILS landing)

    The app button is used for IFR (Instrument Flight Rules) flights between Climbout and Descent. It is the button that guides the plane from beacon-to-beacon.

    If that didnt make sense, pretty much its the APP button that guides the plane to the destination in midflight.

  • ok so at 30nm away from airport press nav button but at about how many nm do u press app? thanks m8

  • sorry for the late reply. U press the app button after you takeoff, until you press the nav button. This is on IFR flights tho, Instrument flight rules.

  • u deffinitily dont press app as soon as you take off. you press it at around 25-30 nm out...

  • well, yeah. I forgot to say that. i was just being relative.

  • hey how do you find the runway heading to put in the course ??? i have fsx , thanks

  • often, the actual magnetic runway course heading is slightly different than just the Rwy Number. for instance, rwy 24, might be 244 degree's. or rwy 8, might actually be 083 degree's. understand? the reason is, the FAA designated rwy Numbers are "approximate"

    values in Magnetic Degree's. i believe they can be "rounded Off" to within about 10 degree's. Ok, all that said, you aren't going to find the true rwy course number to set in your HSI, in the GPS. you must use approach plates(see next)

  • ah ok, what do you mean see nexT ?

  • WHAT R UR SPECS ?

  • I am just using a Stock HP comp. 512 mem. Nvidia GeForce 7600 Vid Card, 4 gigs Ram, 2.6 gig Processor, Dual-Core......hmmm what else.

    that's about it. I have the CH Products Yoke and Rudder Pedals, and the New TRACK IR v4 PRo

    should be arriving at my door ( just ordered it!) by tommorow. really excited about that one! heard it's bar-none, the best add-on you can use in FSX. did you understand about the Rwy Magnetic Course info i explained. if not, i'll offer more help.

  • My plane does'nt decent by himself. Can you tell me whats wrong?

  • i love ils landing!

    But you don't have to turn ap off;)

  • So THAT'S how to establish the ILS localizer.

  • the code of TNCM is 118.70 and i can only put the radios to 117.95

    what do i have to do?!

  • i cant put the code of the airport that i have to put on the radios

    can someone help me?

  • what is ILS man?

  • Insutrument Landing System.

  • *Instrument* Landing System, not Insutrument... :S

  • can someone tell me what is ILS and how do i have to use it?

    thanks :)

  • google.

  • / is for the speed brake button

  • spoilers is *'- button.

  • wate, wut are spoilers for?

  • To reduce speed...

  • srry im new to this

  • M'kay

  • No not really, to increase drag.

  • That didnt work for me

  • ehh, so you see all real pilot's landing with full flaps set until they stop or get off the runaway, he put the flaps up straight away the landing gear touched down at least wait for the plane come to a reasonable speed..

  • as soon as your main landing gear touched down, you put the flaps up straight away when your were going fast on the runaway? thas wrong

  • thats to maximize breaking capabilities. taking off flaps, reduces the the lift produces, thus making breaking more effective. its not "wrong" to do that

  • how do u get spoilers?

  • press the SLASH key (/) or press shift+4 and move the lever to the left of the throttles

  • thanks!

  • It seems like an ILS speed approach is faster than normal, is that true, and if it is what speeds did you use?

  • can you please explain how to set up autopilot for landings and takeoffs thanks

  • how does the ils work?

  • sure thing good buddy

  • By the way, did you happen to read my disclaimer quoted to be "It is hard to see what I am doing, so I am providing a time line of my actions. I do not offer this as the proper way to do anything, it is just how I did it in this video."

  • kbola2 : No, thats why we do it in a flight simulator you idiot. And flight simulator gives you a feeling of how it is to fly, thats why its called a SIMULATOR! Atleast when we fly drunk, we dont got any souls onboard, whats your excuse? All hindwarf did was give a tutorial on how to do a ILS landing in Flightsimulator, and thank you, it helped me alot. I have been reading much on how to do it, but its nice to see it in action.

  • just to let you know asshole flight simulator is dam close to realistic and the only thing different is your not in a real plane now dont go talking shit real pilots are cool and this is the next best thing for ppl who cant be a real pilot so you dont need to be rude

  • your a cock bag. its a game. you really think its guna be as good as real life? and btw. in my opinion he does know how to fly. ur retarted so shut the fuck up.

  • I rock now thanks

  • I rock now thanks

  • ey bro! r u serious that aircrafts can automatically descend itself when it reaches the glide slope?!?!? :o I usually manually put in the alt myself. That'd be a cool thing to learn.

  • when you put up the flaps when you land you could damage the aircraft so wait till you exit

  • 2 things you should do to be the perfect landing:

    - Flaps: you should just bring up when your speed is less than 50 knots.

    - Reverse: active on touchdown, deactive when speed drops less than 50 knots.

    Anyway nice landing, easy and smooth.

  • you dont pull upp the flaps when touch down you do that later...ex when you turn in to the taxiway

  • Hi hindwarf this is FSXFAN from gamefaqs.

    This is a nice approach I just flew it a couple of days ago.

    Anyways, you did a really nice job on the approach. Perfect touchdown on my opinion.

  • just beforelanding do you have to turn of APP cause if i dont my plane goes into the vertical. seriously. plz respond.

  • theres only 1 problem when i do wat u do, like when im getting close to the glideslope, i hit APP, then im really high up liek 3000 feet and the runway is really close to me, maybe a couple of miles, ilke it just wont decend, do i need to control the dcent by using alltitue hold or do i take off alt hold when i hit APP or wat?

  • YOu need to be below the glideslop before you hit APP. Be far away from the airport when you hit it.

  • ok, i was at like the middle, this was me: ->, that dash is me (the plane) and the arrow is the start of th glide slope. so ill try to hit the app right when the ATC says"descend to 3000 and maintain till established on localizer, where is the localizer and where will it establish or say?

  • Decend first to 3000ft, at the intercept angle they tell you at the same time. Then with alt hold on, hit APP.

  • ok thanks, ill try that then

  • how do U move the pilots head? do u use munlock keys or a hat switch on a joystick or do u have that special camera that when u turn ur head to the right in real life, the camera in the cockpit turns to the right?
