TBM 930 IFR - Mirimar to Ontario (KNKX-KONT) - Microsoft Flight Simulator

[@rahulacb11]

Love that you're doing MSFS videos, especially the TBM flights. I'm learning to fly the TBM, so this is greatly helpful. Thanks squirrel.👍

[@aidanberger8875]

TBM is so good. currently my fav so simple yet capable with all the gadgets as well.

[@hobanagerik]

I used to find the TBM takes ages to slow down enough for you to lower flaps. I had a read of the POH for the 930, and it appears you can actually lower the first stage of flaps, for takeoff, at 178kts. The 122kts limit appears to be for second stage, for landing. It's now much more controllable, so I now usually lower first stage at 170, gear at 150, then full flaps at around 120kts.

[@EllieODaire]

The airport you flew over with all of the warehouses nearby was March Air Reserve Base. Civilian planes can use the larger of the two runways, and it's got a pretty neat air-to-truck transfer facility on the civilian ramp, so most of the warehouses around it are Amazon and small consumer goods distribution centers that ship things light enough for air freight. Personally I spent a lot more time trucking up in that industrial park near KONT where all the perishables warehouses and the two biggest truckstops in the region can be found.

[@LoboLakerGaming]

26:20 calls the mountains that are eye level with him at 15,000 feet “hilly” lol

[@malcolmwaters]

Squirrel, when you are planning your descents, allow some fat for deceleration from high speed to approach speed. You multiply your miles by three (as you were) to see what the 3 degree profile height should be, then subtract a few thousand feet for being too fast to land. Eg, at 40 NM to touchdown, 3x4=12, profile would be 12000’. The problem is in a high performance aircraft, usually you are at idle or very low power settings on descent so the only way you can slow down is by putting out drag or pulling the nose up (or both in extreme cases). In the example above, instead of being at 12000’ at 40 NM at 250 kias (on a 3 degree profile), I’d subtract another 2000’ or so from the twelve to allow me to raise the pitch attitude to bleed off the speed, not use speed brake (passenger comfort by not making the aircraft shake and rumble like light turbulence) and finish up slowed with speed in the flap range ready to configure for the approach. In short, I’d be at 10000’ at 40 NM at 250 kias which is 2000’ BELOW the 3 degree profile intentionally. This also dovetails nicely with most state speed control in the world being not above this speed below 10000’ anyway ;) This has been a bit of a long-winded post but as I’ve nearly watched all your videos and note that you’ve done quite the job flying aircraft very well in the sim that need many hours of training to fly accurately and appropriately in the real world, you can take this to the next level with some tips. I’m an airline pilot on hotel lockdown for a week while on layover, and KZbin has been my only entertainment while I wait to go home and teach my son to fly the sim we just built just for this release. I may be out of place, but we’ll done on your channel and enthusiasm.

[@AllyMcLesbian]

Maybe they omitted procedures for Miramar because it is a Marine Corps air station? So nice to see you fly around my neck of woods Squirrel! Thanks for the great content - keep it up. 27:50 that's yet another military airfield - March Air Reserve Base. Indeed lots of industrial warehouses in the area too. The area around Ontario has cheaper land than the rest of overpriced Southern California - in fact KONT is a regional cargo hub for UPS, and Amazon has a huge distribution centre nearby.

[@zOMGREI]

I suspect this is the case, personally. I don't think MS/Asobo went with Jeppesen for their navigational data, they likely went with someone like Navblue (which is owned by Airbus, so the French connection is there), and they either don't have a market for US military installation charts, charge extra for them, or can't sell them at all because of export controls due to it being a Canadian company owned by a French parent. My experience so far in game has been that all of the US bases I've flown out of haven't had any navigational data beyond direct GPS, or only have one or two odd approaches available.

[@baddrivingnyc]

@@zOMGREI there are both departure, arrival and approach data missing for non-military airports as well.

[@zOMGREI]

@@baddrivingnyc Right, but it's consistent among US military bases. They all seem to only have a few approaches (maybe an arrival, if it's a shared arrival route like SIE4 and KWRI) which lines up with charts that are only provided for emergency use.

[@craftgames1882]

The TBM is my favourite aeroplane in MSFS, please keep flying it.

[@CCitis]

TBM, 172, and Savage cub are my fav and in my opinion the best airplanes modelled in the sim. Cap 10 is cool too.

[@Brian_R82]

I agree, the TBM is my favorite. Been disappointed with the jets but the TBM is good for the longer flights

[@skyhawk_4526]

I'm a rather low time (currently inactive) private pilot IRL, but never went for my instrument rating. These IFR procedural videos are very interesting to me! (I know Squirrel would give the disclaimer that he's not providing any flight instruction, nor would I take it as such in lieu of actual instrument instruction from a CFII, but it's still very helpful and fascinating to an non-instrument rated pilot who can't really afford to fly IRL right now.) Thanks for the content!

[@ianyeates9872]

Hi Squirrel, I have enjoyed your tutorials a great deal and have learned quite a bit, I am a long way off doing any of this advanced stuff, I just like watching your videos. I truth I am a seat of the pants sim pilot I am 70 YO and have been involved in the aircraft industry for a very long time. I will go back to your earlier videos and see if I can get my head around this navigation/autopilot stuff. I currently fly for example from San Diego KSAN (aircraft carriers and navy ships) up the coast to Seattle, I go sight seeing like the Queen Mary at LongBeach and the one time Spruce goose dome, doing various stop offs for landing practice, I am that bad at navigation that I fly with an Atlas as my reference and hand fly the aircraft the whole way. My City Melbourne Australia have been in curfew (Lockdown) for months, I am so happy to have something to occupy me as I can not go and work part time as a mechanic at the local airfield. Again I am so grateful for your help well done, the best tutor out there by far.

Hey there squirrel. Actually if you look at the documentation of the TBM 930 you can have landing gear and 1st set of flaps at 180 knots. The white line is for the full landing config, so flaps at 35°

[@christianmagana329]

Really cool to see you fly over southern california! Your route pretty much went directly over my house. I used to work at a machine shop just a few blocks away from the ontario airport

[@christianmagana329]

also, you pointed out march airforce base and mentioned that it was clever to put it near an industrial area. about two years ago an f-16 crashed into a warehouse nearby with live munitions onboard. luckily iirc no one was killed in the accident. the cleanup was massive afterwards!

[@julianmcmanus3384]

Yesss! The Julian transition!!!

[@hawkeyeguy123]

@squirrel To avoid the issue you had here, hitting your cruise altitude just before you hit your deacent point, in my aviation training we were taught the “10%” rule. Take your total distance, take 10% of that, and that’s roughly your cruise altitude in thousands of feet for planning. So 100 mile transit, 10k feet for filing purpose. 135 miles? 13k or 14k. This is a good rule especially for prop aircraft that have diminishing fuel savings as you get higher and higher.

[@svoigt2622]

This is a turbine aircraft, so higher is better. IRL though in SoCal they aren't going to let him climb as high as he would like ...

[@hawkeyeguy123]

S Voigt agreed higher is better, but if you’re at max power for your entire climb, you’re not cruising which will burn less fuel. There is a better intermediary altitude

[@MuffinTM]

these videos are so great and that's all i can think of saying

[@Mega_Casual]

In front of your northbound trip back to Ontario, those mountains in front of you are Cucamonga Peak, Mount Baldy, Cajon Pass. Others too I suppose. But in the Inland Empire those are some of the most well known.

[@baf_mcnab3065]

Really cool video and I picked up a few things about the TBM. Only done about 6 flights in the new sim thus far, and not used automation in any of them, one because I need to learn a lot more about the craft but two, because the sim is still a bit hit and miss concerning what you can and cannot do with the various FM Computers. Watching vids like this certainly add to our knowledge base about the different craft in the sim so far. mta

[@rufrider8682]

Hey Squirrel, I haven't seen every single video you've done but I've watched most of the more recent ones and seen you having some issues connected to the Honeycomb. I did a bunch of testing with mine tonight and found the following: The bug with 10 degree increments is caused by using the set switches on the Honeycomb. It's okay to have them bound, but you mustn't have any of them pressed (this does mean you need to unbind the "magnetos off" action on the starter switch so it can be left in the off position without emitting a signal to MSFS). If you leave all switches off and just use the virtual controls in the sim you will keep the 1-degree increments on the dash dials in the sim. Hopefully a fix for this is forthcoming. I also noticed that the roll axis in the sim is really wonky, like it's using a huge amount of accelleration. It barely moves in the sim for the first 90 degrees of yoke rotation and then moves a massive amount for the final part of its range. I found going into MSFS controls for the Honeycomb and clicking "Sensitivity" and setting the roll axis to about +50% sensitivity made it move a bit more like a 1:1 ratio with the yoke shown in the sim. I am going to tinker with it more tomorrow to get a perfect 1:1 rotation action. Some people have reported that the aileron trim on the left thumb switches of the yoke is problematic as well, but I didn't test this much as I find using switches to control what should be an axis is crappy so I am sticking with the trim dial on my x56 throttle device until I eventually get hold of the Honeycomb Bravo which has a trim wheel on it. If you've discovered some or all of this already, my bad I missed it being discussed. If this helps at all, I'm glad I could pay something back for the wonderful videos you are producing. I have been waiting for about 4 or 5 days for my FSE game world acct to get created and should hopefully be able to start doing jobs tomorrow if the backlog continues at the current pace. Absolutely loving your in depth FSE videos. please keep them coming.

[@aquaticborealis4877]

Honeycomb yoke and x56 hotas. I have the same setup. :) I had to unbind the pitch control on the stick because it was interfering with the yoke pitch control.You experience anything like that? I also picked up the MFG crosswind pedals, and I noticed that the rudder axis is very sensitive. I had to turn down sensitivity, but it often still oversteers a bit.

[@rufrider8682]

@@aquaticborealis4877 I only use the throttle and not the stick but I think the first time I hooked them up I had issues with rudder being centered by the stick twist.

[@aquaticborealis4877]

@@rufrider8682 Thanks for the heads up. Yeah I unbound the rudder from the stick twist as well. I did manage to dial in the rudder sensitivity a bit, but I think it could definitely be better. Seems very easy to over steer. Makes take off and landings squirrely. MFS2020 also seems to accentuate the pull-to-the-left affect on the ground, which adds to the issue for me.

I'm glad you jumped to the main menu to check that as I'm pretty sure the issue is less with the software on plane and more with the data base. that being said there are plenty of annoying bugs in the flight planner on the TBM that drive me crazy, one being sometimes it will delete a different waypoint then one you intend to, because if you scroll through the flight plan with your scroll wheel instead of the buttons, it won't be lined up correctly. that's my guess anyways. thanks for all the great content!

If you do flying in california I recommend using Pilot Edge. It's a paid service but it provides full service ATC in the Los Angeles area with their basic subscription and then they have an expansion pack for the Western US which provides service to most airports however many Class D airports are not included in the expansion. It uses all the real world frequencies and procedures. Its a lovely program.

Many times I can't see what you are doing with your instruments when you adjust them during flight. Also: when decending at 2000ft/min reducing your speed will get you on the desired altitude in a smaller distance. For the rest: keep up the great video's. Anymore tutorials coming up soon?

[@georgesiougas156]

I read somewhere that the prop on the TBM 930 is designed to slow the plane down (when idle) therefore substituting in part for the missing speed brakes. Perhaps in real life this is more evident than in the sim? In any case this is a good demonstration why with such a fast plane, one should keep the lack of speed breaks in mind.

[@Ululuro]

To get on a proper 3° descent you have to set your vertical speed to 5 times your groundspeed. At around 300kts you would have a constant descent at 1500fpm not 2000!

[@paulphibbs5362]

You’ve got to wonder about the partner they are using for NavData. Clearly in the release version we should be seeing the typical data that should be up to date (equivalent to using Navigraph data).

Sorry if I´m kicking in an open door, but MSFS2020 is fairly good at "hand holding" you through the start up process by the checklist system.

So you're saying the brakes on the TBM 930 are good? I love turboprop airplanes, being a veteran of the United States Air Force who worked on the C-130 Hercules with 4 turboprop engines. I wonder if you can use the props in reverse to back up the planes like we used to do? Nothing like using reverse prop to stop the plane in what is in essence a dime. Just watch for feather though, or your plane prop will stop, basically used if the turboprop engine has some kind of fault. They end up putting a 130 in this game, I'll be like a kid in a candy store.

First of all, I think you should checkout VOR navigation. How to tune to a VOR and use radials to map your trips. I followed a basic tutorial, but it was in french, I'm pretty sure there's plenty of them in English. Find an easy trip between two airports that include a VOR. Don't type in any flight plan in the system, just tune into the VOR, and follow the radials.

Great videos! I think YT's weirdness is robbing us of resolution though? Your videos are rendering out of YT at 1920x810, I think because "1080p" in KZbin actually means 1920 horizontal. You've mentioned your monitor is 3840x1080 (and your MSFS window is ~2560x1080). I think if you upload them at 1440p (so 2560x1440 max res from YT's perspective) we will get 2560x1080 in all it's glory!

Wow, so from what I've gathered watching your videos, is that MSFS2020 has done an insanely good job of capturing the look and feel of the world, flight dynamics, etc. But when it comes to avionics, autopilot, SID-STAR procedures, etc., it still has a long way to go.

[@zOMGREI]

I personally can't even fault it for SID-STAR stuff, at least when it comes to missing procedures. I suspect the reason they're missing from Miramar is because it's a military base. Those charts are still publicly accessible, but whatever middleman Microsoft used for FS2020 likely didn't have their own charts for military installations (or they did, but wanted a king's ransom for those ones specifically); as they're only needed by a very small group of people that do civilian charter flights into them. All of the military bases I've flown into or out of in game have been the same way.
