Felis 747-200 Classic | The Queen of the Skies | X-Plane 12

[@TheOfficialSethos]

Thank you for the X-Plane content. It's the underdog of the sim world but man, there's something about the flight feel, the visuals and the direct control response that is an absolute pleasure.

[@Q8Pilot]

Absolutely 💯

[@mikecoffee100]

Enjoyed the Felis 747-200 Classic | The Queen of the Skies | X-Plane 12 flight on a rare occiasion I was able to join always look forward to this flights when I can

[@Q8Pilot]

Glad you made it and glad you enjoyed it.

[@phjo5117]

A very enjoyable stream Q8, and congratulaitons on your handling of this very complex and challenging aircraft, many thanks

[@Q8Pilot]

Thanks for watching and for your support.

[@daandeklein]

really enjoyed the stream and the aircraft as I haven't seen much of the felis. KLM used to have a really rare varient of the 747-200 with a stretched upper deck as found on the -400.

[@Q8Pilot]

Glad you enjoyed it. The Felis is very special for sure.

[@theflapjackaviation2645]

There’s a picture from when KLM sent their -200s to be converted to -300s rolling down the assembly line fully painted but missing most of the hump

[@joshfredr7846]

Much respect to the people who flew this beast IRL.

[@NeonRider-r6b]

Fantastic

[@alan.685]

amazing navigation ! thank you

[@Q8Pilot]

Thanks for watching!

[@tfkslinuxgaming]

Couldn't make the stream but I will watch now.

[@Q8Pilot]

No worries my friend

[@metulski737]

Very well done. X-Plane 12 and the Felis 747 at its best. Only one question. The colors don't look nearly as good on my PC. Do you use reshade or any other program to get the colors so nice?

[@Q8Pilot]

Thanks, I don't use anything now but I have texture resolution set at Max.

[@zacgreen8401]

loving the xplane content and of course loving the felis!

[@Q8Pilot]

That makes two of us =)

[@taurus57]

Excelllent flight Q8 ! A very complicated aircraft to fly though….

[@Q8Pilot]

Thanks for watching and your support!

[@secretworld7545]

recorded this in 1080p with max Settings?

[@dbvetter7485]

Hi Q8Pilot, did you get the co-ordinates in the 747 iPad by exporting from navigrapgh? When you inserted automatically into the INS?

[@Q8Pilot]

I got the flight plan from SimBrief and then exported to X-Plane. Navigraph has integration with SimBrief but not with the Felis 747.

[@dbvetter7485]

Felis is Ukrainian not Dutch as someone thought, it’s increadable that he keeps up with updates during this hard time. The latest update is September 28, 2023

[@raulrodriguez8016]

Great Stream Sorry I missed the live

[@Q8Pilot]

No worries at all my friend.

[@richardcastrigano8094]

Hey Q8, are you using default live weather here or a different weather addon?

[@Q8Pilot]

Correct default weather.

[@dbvetter7485]

I really don’t care about the clouds like everyone else does, as long as X-Plane lives up to its system programming.

[@new_comment]

how about the performance impact?

[@Q8Pilot]

It is a bit resource hungry, but if you can run the Zibo 737 with good FPS, you should be fine with this bird too.

[@aerohubentertainment9552]

how do u like the performance on felis 747 ? i have a somewhat powerful pc but this plane is very hard on fps especially during take off my cpu going crazy everytime i change my view

[@Q8Pilot]

Depending on scenery, the Felis can be demanding. I never had FPS issues where it drops below 40 in any situation with my settings.

[@MARKIPLIERMARKIKI]

i dream having this game

[@abdnasser-x7b]

Dude where can i download that livery

[@Q8Pilot]

X Plane org

[@Bearviation]

I fly this aircraft much - arguably one of if not THE best in XP!

[@Q8Pilot]

It is definitely a very rewarding experience to fly the Felis 747 in XPlane.

[@Bearviation]

@@Q8Pilot haha It's rewarding just to get it started and not hear any alarms when taking off! lol

[@embrj1453]

Can you remove the yoke?

[@Q8Pilot]

I wasn't able to.

[@joelopuck4607]

If you go to 22:17 in the video, just above the right hand yoke handle it says SHOW/HIDE YOKES. In case someone is still wondering. Probably not. Great video. Jim CYWG

[@zhonglipillar3966]

In 2023 those graphics looks like we are back in 2010. No thank you for X-Plane 12.

[@Q8Pilot]

If you are looking for pretty scenery then you are correct, Xplane is not for you.

[@zhonglipillar3966]

@@Q8Pilot Not only good scenery but better expierence overall. So you right, X-Plane is not for me. Cheers!

[@kubixom]

The only thing missing in this plane is a proper FMC and lack of freighter version

[@Q8Pilot]

There is a mod for cargo version. This aircraft never had an FMC so its not missing anything at all. Remember this is the 200 classic.
