737-800 Keeping Energy Under Control | Real 737 Pilot

The PMDG 737-800 is not too far off so let's start preparing a bit for it.
In this one we'll discuss why it is so important to keep your energy on control on arrival and we'll go over some measures how to do so.

Man, just flew to the HEMA, had a lot of trouble managing my energy and just saw this video. Why haven't I saw this earlier! Thank you so much for your commitment sir.

[@kiotee_nouw]

The PMDG Boeing 737-800 is available for purchase now! Go get her!

[@MosheGavrielBinkovitz]

First, thank you sir for such professional videos! After every video of yours, I "recalculate my path" so to speak, my knowledge of flying a plane (virtually, of course!)

[@StewCal65]

Thanks!

[@A330Driver]

Thank you so much for your support!

[@iaexo]

Wow I wonder how many videos were recorded during your block leave. Stunning. Keep up the great work!

[@A330Driver]

Quite a couple! This one was actually two weeks old however! Yes.... I did prepare for the release quite a bit!

[@vfr-andy3133]

Great tutorial. Thank you very much. Really looking forward to the 800.

[@A330Driver]

It's available now!

[@mancooncrest835]

Happy landings in the real world and thanks a ton for keeping us entertained! You are doing a great job here!

[@deepayandas6860]

awesome turbulant landing

[@combatarmsjong]

Been there, done that. The 800 really is a tough beast to tame, specially if you are faster than you were supposed to be. Missed some approaches because of that 😂 😂

[@A330Driver]

Yep, I see lots of unstable landings coming (because, let's be honest, how many simmers are actually going around for an unstable approach?)

[@peterspatz6918]

@@A330Driver On my plans i sometimes i set earlier TOD and where is no STAR or no direct to FAF I add fix around FAF to have room for get rid of speed or last decent. If you on decent it's a bit late to think abour it. The thing is do be ahead of your aircraft. Always. The good is: Sim is forgiving alot.

[@wolfgangkronfuss8893]

Great vids! Thx a lot for all the education.

[@320fanA]

I don’t know but I think PMDG is not really listening nice to you. Why is the FD so slow? You fly 100ft below the altitude and it’s still not commanding pitch up. Did you realise that? Also when balancing the fuel, if you leave the crossfeed open and switch the 2 pumps on again you still get an imbalance after a while again.

[@kiekiek]

The 737-800 has been released just now!

[@samairhistory9149]

I can’t wait! Any idea when it will be realising. I hope they don’t wait until the 31st

[@Beardown2]

My guess is Friday.

[@kokoeteantigha389]

it's now out. Today the 25th of August.

[@A330Driver]

Right now

[@alton4357]

Hello capt thank you for these informative videos really fun and teaches a lot ... I would like to ask please what's the meaning of the( actual wind) in the CRZ page in FMC sometimes it gives deffrent data than the one on the ND so that's why I'm confused

[@Stringbean421]

The PMDG -800 version is now up on the PMDG website for a price of $4,999,999.99, down from $9,999,999.99. This is obviously just a placeholder until official release which is imminent.

[@philippehendrickx1109]

It's so realistic, PMDG feel like they should charge real world aircraft prices 🤣

[@Stringbean421]

[@A330Driver]

Show it to an airline and it's an instant buy!

[@jakgats1411]

i brought the 800 thinking how hard can it possibly be, boy was i wrong. the 800 is way more slippery than the 700.

[@wolfgangkronfuss8893]

Btw...what's the current state regarding the CTDs on MSFS? I did a flight on the Fenix, VIE to CGN, and had no issues apart from some less perfomance due to my cache being rebuilt.

[@A330Driver]

Still an issue unfortunately...

[@wolfgangkronfuss8893]

@@A330Driver Danke!

[@rmi_op4806]

Emi you think the 800 is just about ready?

[@A330Driver]

Yep, it's available now!

[@jetmech3838]

Thank you for the videos! They help me out a lot. One question for you. Why does the wind direction and speed disappear from the display during flight? Is that just a bug in the system?

[@A330Driver]

They aren't shown on the ND if less than 6kt. On the FMCs PROG page 2/4 you can always see the current wind.

[@jetmech3838]

@@A330Driver I didn’t know there was a limit. Thank you!

[@countryflyboy8255]

Emmanuel. I notied that some of the effects you have on your simulator differ from mine. For instance the ground effects upon landing with the shake of the camera and sound. Do you have some add-on program that is doing that? Or maybe mine does the same and I Just dont notice it. Thanks!

[@BankaiProductionsSP]

He uses FSRealistic Pro for those sounds

[@szymonczarnecki7366]

FSRealistic Pro also does the camera shake and G Force effect.

[@A330Driver]

As Lucas and Szymon already pointed out, I'm using FSRealisticPro for those effects.

[@countryflyboy8255]

Thank you all

[@waynevanwyk2870]

Hi Emi, was it a bug for the plane to go to VNAV SPD? Did it have to stay in VNAV PATH?

[@A330Driver]

Yes

[@chrisblair1838]

Is the 900 version even more slippery?

[@A330Driver]

Infact not, the -800 is the "worst" they say. I haven't flown a -900 though.

[@jincyayrattu6606]

[@ifj.kosagabor]

I just checked it on the PMDG site, WHY IS IT 5 BILLION BUCKS? 🤣

[@hellfire_2345]

and we thought it was going to be a lowish price 😂

[@jounaas]

Bc its not ready yet

[@hellfire_2345]

Yeh they have just made its profile on the website it could mean we could have it by the week end though and the price they have there could be a hit on the price so leave it to your imagination

[@A330Driver]

It's a bargain, the real one is at least ten times as much!

[@ifj.kosagabor]

@@A330Driver mate, you are actually right! Didnt thought of this 🤣
