Super underrated and the best tutorial especially now where we have a proper VFR simulator (MFS2020). You’re amazing !

[@krizvas]

My first ever flying lesson was in the plane from the thumbnail. PH-TGM. Good memories.

[@RhettKelly]

Thanks for doing these VATSIM VFR video tutorials - this is just what I needed. Looking forward to each video of the series. You present the information in a clear and logical manner. By the way, I started VATSIM IFR flights thanks to your tutorials.

[@AviationPro]

You're welcome, Rhett! :) Have fun!

[@dominiquez5643]

Bro ! Thank you so much for expediting this...just joined VATSIM and passed the test and don't even have FS2020 but I'm am so in. I'm a 60 years old computer programmer and yet all this stuff is so confusing, this helped me understand what I signed up for at VATSIM !! THANK YOU !!

[@AviationPro]

You're welcome!

[@timquain5341]

Perfect! Thank you so much. As others have said, now the challenge is to find an airport that has ATC without heaps of airliners coming and going. Still, I can now practice my phraseology to myself which is great!!!

[@drbucketface]

Thank you for this, when I started I had problems even pressing the PTT button but now I am able to perform VFR circuits with ease. Now I just need to learn how to fly IFR with airliners.

[@leov4751]

Great effort to teach phraesiology. Getting vfr's in between the big boys is tricky sometimes. Having vfr pilots who know what to do, especially the report ready to turn naar/ extend downwind, are a godsend. Pilots who just turn base in front of a B748 while asking to repeat your instruction to extend their downwind on the other hand...

[@jonathanlane3771]

Very nicely done! Thank you for showing some uniques circumstances and ATC instructions. Many tutorials stick to the basic script, and then you are left panicking when you hear something unexpected. I am looking forward to trying this myself!

[@AviationPro]

You’re welcome!

[@timnewsome9710]

I did it! First Vatsim flight, did 2 circuits and then landed, just like your example. Flew it at KFMH tonight, and I screwed up taxiing a little in the darkness, but everything was fine. Ground and tower were both on-line and friendly.

[@timnewsome9710]

Thank you for this video, is what I meant to say.

[@MistaJayRo]

Nice video with alot of good info! Have you ever tried using track-ir (or another head tracking device)? Ive used it for several years now and it really helps with spacial awareness in the circuit, like you said, you can pop your head down to look under the wing or look over the nose of the aircraft to see where you are coming out on the runway threshold. I really recommend it.

[@pedrovicnt_]

here in brazil, we use the last 3 digits of the registration here we have: PP PR PT PS and PU for experimental so, if in case we use PP-JHT as our tail number, control will call us Juliet hotel tango, not papa hotel tango Aviation has its beauties on it's regional differences, amazing video, cheers :)

[@alaqmaargandhi4526]

Hey bud! Thanks so much for these video, they have helped me a lot in being more confident when flying VFR and recently did a few VFR circuits with some friends and it was really fun, I couldn’t have done this without you. Thanks again!

[@docdutch6126]

Hi AviationPro, very good tutorial as I fly years on right now but never practiced VFR/circuit flight. Good easy translation of the phrases, but as some other comments, TrackIR is a must for you. This is something I doubted for financial reasons but its worth every euro. Even in IFR doing checklists.Keep on doing this graet stuff. Gegroet en Oant sjen fanut Fryslan ;-)

[@AviationPro]

Thank you! :) Yes, I have tried if a couple of times, sometimes it tends to make me a bit dizzy to be honest, especially on smaller screens, but I guess it's something to get used to :). Perhaps VR will be nice to try too sometime...

Hello, great stuff! Would you mind sharing where do you get maps like this? Subscribed to navigraph but it seems it is more ifr. Thank you!

[@AviationPro]

Thanks! For the US you can use Skyvector. For Europe and other areas Open Flightmaps or openAIP are great alternatives to find enroute VFR charts

[@charlietang395]

Where and How can I download the lovely VFR map used in the video?

[@alexanderantonioli]

I think you should review the ICAO doc 9432, if you are flying as a VFR traffic you don’t have to request any startup clearance , because you are not subjected to eurocontrol slots. I also noticed that you want to follow real-life proc (like magneto check), there’s a more important thing that you have missed : you completely forgot to manage you flaps during the takeoff. Finally I recommend you to reduce the throttle after you reached your cruising speed and altitude, remember: it is not a constant speed prop, so it means that your prop/engine rpm are proportional to your calibrared air speed and your manifold pressure (not shown). If you want to make VFR flights more realistic, you should follow these simple guidelines.

[@AviationPro]

Startup clearance is required for VFR flights in the Netherlands at controlled airports, as discussed in the theory video. I don't fly GA aircraft often, so in this tutorial series I'm focussing mainly on the procedures, not the aircraft, especially since people can fly a lot of different GA aircraft, so bear with me with those kind of mistakes :)

[@bellofello1]

Managing the flaps in a 172 on takeoff? lul. Maybe if he was doing a soft field take off at max weight or something

[@leov4751]

Requesting start-up is advisable though on bigger airports. You will be warned when ifr traffic load is too high to allow circuits before you waste time and fuel.

[@leov4751]

In Belux, vfr pilots are not expected to listen to atis. Atc wiĺl provide qnh, winds and cloud cover besides active runway.

[@oystercatcher943]

Excellent video to give me confidence . just practicing circuits for CAT-3 on PE. Also joined VATSIM so will try now I know people do fly VFR on VATSIM. PE is good PE because you are assessed for flying a pattern. VATSIM ratings seem very different and not granular like this. Is this right?

[@handsomechocolatebar276]

AviationPro, you content is really good. If I were you, I would work on getting your channel growing, and try and minimized content quality. Your content is really useful. Also, I know this probably doesn't do as well as the videos you are doing now but, every now and then can you do a flight?

[@polaarj]

can i do a right hand and left hand circuit without asking anything else or do i have to ask clearance for that?

[@zombiejase]

Hi there Ive been in to sim flying for quite a few years now on and off, (also had a training flight in a real aircraft) had quite a few of the older flight sims but I'm really looking forward to the upcoming release of flightsim 2020 on the xbox series x as i have not had a pc fast enough for some years now and also my older sim gear (stick and throttle) out of date. So my question to you guys is will you be supporting the xbox release in a week or two as i would quite like to set up a vatsim account and get flying with you at some point in the future with some new gear too? I've seen some posts of people using vatsim and i have to say this looks next level.

[@LuLeBe]

Vatsim currently has no plans to support Xbox. Mainly because the Xbox version doesn't allow interfacing with the vatsim software to transmit data like aircraft position, frequencies and transponder information. And they do have a good relationship with Asobo, so if they were really pushing for it and the community would do so as well, Microsoft could probably fix these issues, but it doesn't seem like enough people care.

[@markusthl]

The dutch standard entry is 90° to the downwind? Seems a little weird ... normal procedure in the countries I've flown in (USA and Germany) is entering the downwind with a 45° angle. This gives you a much better opportunity to dodge incoming traffic on the downwind as you only have to turn 45° either right or left (depending on the traffic pattern).

[@AviationPro]

Yep, although often ATC might direct you to base instead or you fly some sort of other procedure via specific landmarks.

[@skypilotyts8356]

What program are you using that shows the Circuits on the VFR map?

[@tigrozz3987]

where did you find the aeronautical chart?

[@tomwiggins3833]

Quick question. What does "Eelde Delivery" mean please?

[@TheMack]

Nice video! In real life flight training, is flying circuits the first step during training in air? (After learning to taxi and taking off)

[@markusthl]

No the first step is basic airwork like normal turns, steep turns, climbing turns, stalls etc.

[@TheMack]

Markus Oh, that makes sense, thanks!

[@AviationPro]

Thanks! What Markus says indeed, but in general the circuit will be an inherent part of such flight, since you need to depart and arrive at an airport :)

[@TheMack]

@@AviationPro Yes, it's the most important thing I guess. What goes up, must come down =) I figure it takes a substantial amount of time to practice flying the circuit until proficient.

[@InfantTree]

No wait i know you dutch because if your accent and you used PH-xxx in your tailnumber which is the tailnumber for dutch airplanes

were do you get your charts from

[@ellonysman]

No ground taxi requests on vatsim? Did you say it’s controlled? Oh, you’re atc, roger that

[@kyroxskateboarding2685]

Nice Video! But why didn't you told me i can't fly a VFR circuit with my A380? xD

[@mateorodriguez8660]

If you said this in the video I’m sorry if I missed it, but what is the chart you use?

[@AviationPro]

See my theory video with some guidelines on charts :)

[@dionrowney]

I have noticed controllers abreviate my tail number as the last 3 characters. Do controllers in different places choose different ways to do it? I have not heard any controller use the first letter yet.

[@jakub-kube]

i don't know, from the 3 flights that I did in vatsim in total all controllers abbreviated my callsign "SP-KUB" to "S-UB"

[@GrumpyOldMan9]

Tis "number of people", niet "amount of people". Zelfde voor "touch and goes". Geen schande, meeste Engelstalige maken die fout ook ;)

[@HanziSwanzi]

Echt leerzame stof, heb zoveel profijt aan jou leer manier.

[@kirantejatummuri5834]

So what do you mean by "information E"? I know it's related to ATIS but not sure what exactly.

[@AviationPro]

It's simply put an identifier of the ATIS. When something in the ATIS changes, it gets a new identifier as per the next letter in the alphabet. That way you know that if you have information E, but information is now F, that you should listen to the ATIS again because it has updated to F.
