Really would like to hear more about you guys trying the ferry flight across the N. Atlantic. I watched Matt's vids and have often flown the same route in old FS98 through FSX - like the hop from S. FL to Scotland.

Don't worry, the North Atlantic Ferry Route is going to be a full video! I've got footage, screenshots, and plans from all 5 legs of my flight, so it will take a while to edit and assemble. Be sure to subscribe and hit the bell for notification when it releases. Thank you for the feedback, it really helps us plan!

Love it! I'm so glad to hear you just picked-up the FJS 737-200; it's amazing to fly (similar to their 727). Since you fly /A and /W, I want to ask: is there a better resource for finding non-RNAV departures/arrivals into/out of airports? Each time I fly /A or /W I currently use SkyVector.com and scroll through each arrival/departure that's not listed as RNAV to try and find one that works. Even with Navigraph charts they indicate ALL departures/arrivals graphically but do not denote which one/s are non-RNAV. The Dornier 38 - I'm getting it! Hope to see more from y'all in the future! - John PS - I watched ALL the way through.

@bearaviation John, thanks for the feedback and hope you enjoyed our attempt here. To your question about non RNAV/GPS approaches: Using two examples, for KPHX if it doesn’t say RNAV it appears to have non-gps procedures as well. For EGLL the procedure with 3 letter notations look like a good choice while those with 5 letters designators are GPS. In many cases, the RNAV/GPS procedures were “built” over top of existing approaches, so some my be dual purpose. Since the newer approaches do not require physical ground based equipment, more flexibility can be used when building an approach. All must be approved by regulating authorities and be free of obstructions before approved for use. Terminal Procedures and Flight Inspection personnel would be key in this process. Hopefully that helps a bit, and if you find another method that seems to apply, let us know below!!
