How to Land the Boeing 787 - With a Real Dreamliner Pilot

[@simviator]

ngl best msfs channel on youtube

[@omnijack]

Although I’ve no career interest in them, I find the airliners extremely interesting to (consider flying). Cheers for the video.

[@alanw.4511]

Thanks

[@alanw.4511]

Your videos are so excelent!!!

[@320SimPilot]

Thank you so much, I’m glad you’re enjoying them and I really appreciate the super thanks!

[@jasonzhang8577]

That taped up wing is so realistic 😏

[@peterdr7193]

Another amazing video ! As I said a few times before and I’ll say it again (and maybe more to come), you are the best instructor !!! Thank you so much. Greets, Peter.

[@FTStratLP]

Thank you so much! All my questions answered.

[@mockingbird-media-uk]

absolutely fantastic msfs content, i watched your video and tried to copy your exact procedure landing at honolulu and mannaged to do a terrible landing. All was well untill the wind started to gust from 20 to 27 knotts as soon as i dissengaged the AP i was fighting with it all the way to the ground. definately not a stablised approach tried to get the wings straight and a small amount of flare whilst using the rudder to turn into the wind, i made a real mess, anyway superb chanel keep up the great work sir. ps usual planes are the 787-9 horizon the 747-8 salty and the pmdg 777-300 which i absolutely love

[@VNAV_PTH]

I took great pleasure in using the HUD with the NGX back in the days of FSX, especially for non precision approaches. That 3 degree dashed line coupled with the flight path vector almost made it a bit too easy 😊

[@FTStratLP]

Just had a closer look. AT mode was not disengaged and also the AT master was not disarmed at 25 ft. AT mode finally disengaged only when the nose wheel touched the ground but the autothrottle kept being engaged during roll out. Did some test flying today and I experienced the same issue at every landing.

Do you have a heathrow briefing video? That would be cool

[@Rabid747]

pretty sure the guys from Big Jet TV would be going crazy at the hovering 787 on short final :)

[@davidpringuer3553]

Great content, as ever. Thank you.

[@taffman1]

I am looking forward to the release of MS24, especially the shared cockpit, perhaps depending on your schedule and other concerns you could offer 1-2-1 tutorials.

[@raymondgoubet]

Very nice.👍👍 Isn't it lovely we can do that on our home PCs? Now, I would like a full airshow demo flight with steep take off, steep landing, and high bank angles. Like at Farnborough...

[@tanberjan]

Have you tried the bravo airspace 787 addon?

[@ThorNjord]

How do you get the natural camera shake in the opening sequence? It’s really nice and natural! Thanks so much for this whole 787 tutorial series! It is amazing. 🎉👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@jaysmith4302]

Well done. Perhaps my landings will be a bit less ham-fisted as a result. Question: in a modern airliner when applying full reverse thrust, about what fraction of the engines rated thrust do you actually get in the reverse direction?

[@owens_aviation]

Hello! When should I use flaps 25° vs flaps 30° for landing? Awesome video 👍🏻

[@320SimPilot]

Glad you enjoyed it! Flap 25 is more normally used. Flap 30 would be used if the runway is short, approach is steeper than normal or if you want to keep the brakes cooler (heavy weight landing onto a shorter runway in a hot climate for example). I hope this helps!

[@owens_aviation]

Great, thanks for the quick response! What recording tool do you use for the sim? The video looks really crisp

[@hjr2000]

329 SP videos - liked in advance because I know it will be great 🎉

[@vortexviewer]

Great vid once again👍. With the crosswind, how much do you crab into wind? How would i know if i put too much or too little crabbing action?

[@salokin1]

Whatever's required to keep the circles concentric in the hud display, i.e. the plane flying along the correct track. "The bird" shows where you're going, the inner circle where you SHOULD be going. The autopilot will set this up correctly initially ... a lot more stressful if you're hand flying from a long way out!

[@WindsorYeh]

Butttered this one wow

[@matteolosardo]

hello, I have a question: In the 787 (and in this case also in the 737MAX and the future 777X), how does it work with the EICAS indications being only selected in either the left or the right NDs at a time? in the sense that, is the engine display usually displayed in the pilot flying's screen, while the pilot monitoring has the expanded ND in the whole screen, or is it the opposite, with the pilot monitoring having the engine indication on its side? sorry if you've answered before, thanks in advance :))

[@320SimPilot]

Great question! This is down to pilot preference. Usually PM has the EICAS screen on their side, but if I was flying with manual thrust I would have it on my side as PF! Hope this helps.

[@matteolosardo]

@@320SimPilot makes sense as the pilot flying would usually want to have his engine indication closest for a quick glance if flying manually… thanks for answering :))

[@izu_.n]

How do you decide flaps 25 or flaps 30 for landing? Any particular reason for choosing one in particular ?

[@bungallowbill]

Very usefull video. Quick question, what is the purpose of minimals to 280? Thank you.

[@bizarre9301]

That is a reminder for decision height. Decision height is defined by runway and varies among each of them.

[@bizarre9301]

In which circustances we should flare at 30 feets? I tried to land at 3 degrees with 184 tons @ 25 flap/152 knots. Flaring at 30 feets always guarenteed a hard landing. Even flaring at 50 would be a bit too late.

[@simulacrae]

How much less comfortable is the Dreamliner compared to the 320? No more tray table and a big honking yoke between your knees :)

[@mammid9622]

So is the nose slamming down after touchdown realistic to the real 787?

[@philipc7273]

cheers! now try landing in extremely difficult conditions 😅

[@manidkifimTrikxy]

my plane flew left right left right when it was "established" on Glideslope

[@RobertHopkinsArt]

I have trouble remembering which left or right rudder pedal to use when a cross wind is happening. I usually will "experiment" with which pedal to push, but I know this is not the correct way. How do pilots remember which pedal to push away on? It seems counterintuitive.

[@RobertHopkinsArt]

I Barded/Gemini'ed this and it gets even weirder: Aileron Aft, Rudder Opposite. What's a simple-mind to do? :)

[@omnijack]

@@RobertHopkinsArt Rudder *away* from the wind; aileron towards. So if wind is coming from left, you want to balance right rudder with left aileron. (Edit: that’s what I learned on small planes and I’m still a terrible student so don’t quote me!)

[@Tialano]

If you are coming in crabbed, which you probably will be in a crosswind landing, then you want to kick the nose away from the wind to line up with the runway during flare (this should visually make sense). Aileron will generally be into the wind (opposite to the rudder) to counteract any roll the wind and rudder will try and induce.

[@RobertHopkinsArt]

Bard/Garmin: Q: Which rudder pedal should I press if the wind is going from the left to the right of the runway? A: If the wind is blowing from the left to the right of the runway (a left crosswind), you should press the right rudder pedal. The visual answer, for my little brain, press the pedal that will point me "towards" the source of the wind from across the runway. Now I get it! Thanks, Dudes!

[@harryhibberd8712]

Honestly, it seems counterintuitive when explained but when doing it in practice, it actually comes pretty naturally. Just push your foot down in the direction you want the nose to go in. Easier said then done but a lot of the ‘sensing’ is done through your ass, which obviously isn’t possible with a desktop simulator.

[@audiophil3761]

Thanks a lot for all these tutorials about the boing 787. I am just to begin to make myself familiar with this airplane and with MFSF 2024 as well. My question: I did not succed in getting the cockpit announcements concerning the Altitude when landing (60/50/40 and so on...). Am I doing something wrong within MSFS or do I need a third party plugin, or.....? Perhaps you can help me with that. Best regards

[@lorenzochambers8348]

haven't you done a video on this?

[@hjr2000]

Will have done one on the Bus 🚌

[@zlm001]

Thanks
