FSS Boeing 727-200 Freighter - Let's explore the NEW BOEING! | Real Airline Pilot

[@AshleyWincer]

Someone is going to have to create the Beastie Boys "Licensed to Ill" album cover paint scheme for the B727.. That'll be great to see in the sim..

[@captainfredo1900]

Very nice video as usual! I have enjoyed this wonderfull aircraft with FS2004 (Captain Sim then Flight1) and I am so happy to see it now on my favorite simulator. At 55:13, I think that the non use of the engine 2 bleed can explain the T/O EPR difference.

[@DBCooper-r3l]

I hope they fix the Dis/time so we can check waypoints. I had the "Ready For Pushback" Boeing 747-200 INS 18 years ago and it worked just like the real one. I think it was the Delco Carousel IV-A by Marco Ravanello & Gianfranco Corrias. Thanks for the videos btw.

[@stevewhan7308]

Hi. I’ve found this vid quite late. Q: how do you configure your throttles etc for a tri-jet? Do you have 3 throttle levers or do you link some controls? Excellent vid, thanks for posting!!

[@ludwig8126]

I hope the bring the super 27 and hush kits in thr future

[@extremehdsimulation5752]

Nice story about the guy pushing random buttons and offloaded from the plane. I'd never do something like that. I was flying next to the pilot in a touristic short flight with elicopter AS350, i noticed the Attitude indicator was not moving (i think it was a pilot preference flying totally VFR), I pointed out this to the pilot but i did not touch anithing, and he uncaged it.

[@purrple.shadows]

How would you rate the handling characteristics? Unique in any way or similar to any other flight sim airliner?

[@A330Driver]

Certainly unique, in that they are actually fairly well done. The plane flies quite nicely, I enjoy it! I like especially the speed stability, changing and maintaining speed feels just like in a real airplane, where in many flight sim aircraft it is pretty hard to control the speed manually.

[@N728DA]

@@A330Driver thank you Emi! You answered the very big question I had!

[@ferrari2k]

1:09:20 how could you engage the autopilot, I have those buttons stuck in their neutral position and cannot move them from there?

[@A330Driver]

Please contact FSS support.

[@ferrari2k]

@@A330Driver OK, will try that, thanks :)

[@ferrari2k]

@@A330Driver I poked around a bit and it was the turn control knob that wasn't dead center. So for anyone having problems with the autopilot, it can be helpful to move that knob slowly to find center.

[@oledamgaard7688]

As alwayes, great video questions: can I load Simbrief flightplans direct into the INS or do I have to convert manually to coordinates Is the auto throttle realistic in the 727

[@koloinflight3799]

I`m planning my loads in SIMBRIEF with KG, not in LBS. Can I switch to KG in that bird ?

[@oledamgaard7688]

ooops, can see that coordinates are written in the simbrief pdf

[@obriets]

Also, you can find your position in the telemetry in Navigraph. The tab is not selected by default, but it’s easily added.

[@oledamgaard7688]

@@obriets thanks, I just found it

[@ThorntonWillie]

Is using the GPS broke in this could not get it to follow the route using the gtn 750 so I just flew the course using heading. It was still a blast to fly.

[@A330Driver]

No, it works just fine.

[@ThorntonWillie]

@@A330Driver I know what I did wrong.

[@dylanmiller9604]

Looks great! I’ll probably be getting it, I want to. But man, I really want my EJet to have more functionality. It’s such a great plane from them and I love flying it, it’s just time for more functionality

[@RIdersfan232]

100% agree with you there! I have heard people say that this aircraft was made by a different team within but not sure if it’s true or not.

[@dylanmiller9604]

@@RIdersfan232 I believe them, but still… should be all hands on deck to get this thing out of pre-release. It’s been ridiculously long haha. VNAV, an independent navigation system, and a properly functioning FMC is all I’m asking for😭

[@lazarosengo8342]

Give them time boys, I know it's a bit frustrating even for me but, what I do is a couple tours on Ivao with 737 Fenix That along takes me 1/2 months to complete which give me also enough time to catch up with the updates on the EJets. Bottom line is use other good A/C while they update the EJets. In addition to that make sure to report Bugs. That way we can all become less pessimistic and help fsstudio with positive feedback critics.

[@dylanmiller9604]

@@lazarosengo8342 I know, I get it and I love flying my other planes, but I really want to enjoy the E175 properly. It’s really such a great airplane in the sim, it deserves its full release. And I know the guys are well capable of it! Fingers crossed for some good news soon

[@dylanmiller9604]

@@lazarosengo8342 if it takes much longer I’m probably gonna be flying an E175 irl before it goes into full release😭

[@dolf1010]

All manual on the tutorials 👍

[@A330Driver]

They're uploading as we speak. They'll be available for channel members within the next hour and probably be released to the public over the weekend and perhabs monday or tuesday. :-)

[@sk8guitardrums]

great educational video once again, thank you for your time and efforts to make these wonderful videos. i look forward to getting this 727.

[@jxk4500]

Should I buy it? Systems wise ok?

[@A330Driver]

Few bugs here and there, as you would expect from an initial release. But my first impression is a really good one, they did a much better job with the 727 than with their previous E-Jets. I like it.

[@soviet_salsa2983]

I hear you answering peoples questions. Was this flight taken from a livestream?

[@TravisPrybylski]

yes

[@A330Driver]

Yes

[@N728DA]

Hey Emi, what is your sensitivity settings for this aircraft?

[@strikingscorp4659]

He uses linear for everything if i remember correctly

[@A330Driver]

yep, neutral. The only plane where I don't use neutral is the Fenix.

[@N728DA]

@@A330Driver awesome, thank you kind sir

[@luiscurtolo]

im just buying this plane and learning it to reproduce that iconic landing from a famous video of an approach at Mogadishu Airport with that ACDC track behind hahaha

[@alaincasartelli]

Do you prefer the Airbus or Boeing?

[@A330Driver]

As a workspace Airbus is better.

[@saytoga]

what's the tool you use for the checklist?

[@French28Pilot]

hey of course the heading BUG is BUGgy, Its a Bug. Haha

[@A330Driver]

hahaha, good one!

[@gymclassroom2546]

Are you using any third party weather injection?

[@A330Driver]

Sometimes I use Active Sky MSFS, but this one was done with default MSFS weather.

[@lalajohnanagnostis]

It's the best flight machine in the history

[@facethefaceandmore44]

I was looking to make an "plane x would like to have a word" joke, but nothing was funny and I think I would agree. Maybe spiritually also 75/76, Tristar and B52, but also something composite and efficient like 787/350.

too bad it's Aerosoft exclusive

For now.

@@obriets doesn't make it any less stupid. Either they want to make money with their product or not. But if they force me to install downloader junk that caused countless problems in the past they are just creating a dilemma.
