@jon5700 this is a great vid. how did u shoot the take off? taxing towards camera when turning on runway (0:48) and having a "fly by" while start from the distance...(0:56). Did you use active camera 2004? thx for help
Jon, I got this and when I take off I go over the edge of heahrows and amsterdams longest runways. I thouht how unrealistic. So pleasse help me. I had to get up off the ground like this: i set auto throttle to 200 - 250 knots then when it there i set the vrticcal speed and it gets up and i thought. WTF!!!! so how do you really manually take off the CLS 747? with out having to use the auto pilot. it looks so unrealistic with A/P please help? :(
@NycDude66 Firstly, the A/T has a TOGA mode for takeoff. Second, you aren't setting your trim, and that's why you can't take off. A 747 is always very heavy and needs its stabilizer trimmed for takeoff, and that realism was included in this add-on. Slide the trim handle next to the throttles back so that the trim is at least 3 degrees nose up. Once that's done, pull lightly back on the yoke at your rotation speed and you'll lift off. If you need proof I know this, I have a CLS 747-200.
jon you have the best aviation videos out there the more and more i watch ur videos in inspires me to be a pilot... im going to daniel webster collage in 2 years which is 10 minute drive from where i live and im going for 4 years. thanks for vids
I've bought the passenger/combi add on and I'm having an issue whereby the official liveries like virgin/iran air won't appear only the CLS and white liveries do. Anybody else got this issue on FS2004? CLS are taking an age to try and sort this problemo out for me.
I do. the file in your Microsoft FS2004 files labeled Liveries or Colors...its probably corrupted, happened to me too with the CLS A330-300. Theofficial liveries for Delta and Air Canada werent showing up.
@sjbvice@Jon5700 Well something like that happened to me when I was installing the CLS 767! Just to the CLS website and download the paints and install them manually!

love that aircraft, just got back from Orlando this morning around 7am, flew in to London Gatwick on 747-400 Virgin Atlantic (Jersey Girl), rough landing due to the storm warnings around southern England, it was major thunderstorms.
They land just like any other airliner... That "stall" is called a flare, unless you want to blow the tires, destroy the landing gear and skid off the runway in a blazing inferno.
The only 747s Virgin Atlantic has in active service right now are 747-400s. The resources I have don't indicate when the 742s were retired only that all of them have been retired. Cheers!
