How to Practice Your Landings in MSFS2020 Over & Over again - Set Up Tutorial

[@juiceboyxd9310]

From the default cockpit view if you press "space" it will raise the camera up to a more realistic pilot view of the cockpit and you'll be able to see much better out of the window!

[@InsaneMetalSoldier]

Hey man! Another tip. Set Anisotropic Filter to 16x. It wont affect your performance and will remove the blurriness from runways

[@Equidorage]

I was just about to say that! Make sure that in NVIDIA control panel that anisotrophic filtering is set to let the application decide

[@Easyjetsimpilot]

Excellent tip.

[@TekknoTim]

But why it wont affect performance? I mean it sounds like the graphicscard is processing twice the tasks as it would do in the 8x setting? To be clear, im not sceptic, just interested ^^

[@salokin1]

This works for me ... set up camera where wanted and press CTRL+ALT+1 (or another number) to save the position. This position can be regained by pressing ALT-1. You can save several positions using other digits.

[@Easyjetsimpilot]

Fantastic. Thank you!

[@77Original]

This is awesome thanks dude ! :D quick tip if you want to set the custom camera angle go in the position that you want and press Control + Alt and any number you want on the number pad for example 1, 2 or 3. Then press Alt and the number you chose and it will take you to the custom view :)

Fantastic video. Love it! You asked for "default views... THIS IS FOR COCKPIT-views selected on keyboard. Press Ctrl + 1, 2, 3, up to 9. However, if you want to "record" your own views. Set a view you like with the mouse and record it with Ctrl + Alt (left one) + a number 1, 2, 3 up to 9 (I think, mabye 8). Then you can retriew it with Alt (left one) + a number. Pretty handy I think. If I´m not mistaken this is saved either in your profile or the aircrafts profile so you don´t have to "record" views for every flight.

[@mrfairycake4333]

Fantastic my friend, you videos are great :)

[@ForzaBantams]

Another great tutorial. I’m going to see what happens if I save flight as soon as I’ve got everything set in live pause. In theory it will save me hitting live pause each time I restart and I can also use the settings over and over in future by just loading them. But in theory doesn’t always work in fs2020.

[@Easyjetsimpilot]

Good idea. Let us know how you get on.

[@ForzaBantams]

So far it doesn’t work. It saves where you are but not the config. In theory you could edit the “True” “False” setting in the save file, but I did this yesterday and that doesn’t seem to change anything either. I might disable A32X and see if that makes any difference. I will keep trying to find a solution.

[@Easyjetsimpilot]

@@ForzaBantams That's a shame. You're right in that it would save so much time.

[@Zak-l7e]

Thank you so much, i have been looking eveywhere for something like this to practice my landings if Possible can you look into a solution for taxi speed using NeoNX, it keeps going up and up with the (throttle in idle), so i have to use use the brakes to slow the aircraft all the time , it does not look nor feel real or nice, with MS FX used to be a little program that controls the taxi speed so you can set the speed to whatever you like (ie 20) and the program keeps the AC at that speed. thank you so much once again for the fantastic job you are doing with the simmers and for your time. much appreciated

[@Easyjetsimpilot]

Actually, the taxi issue is a real life issue. The A320 will gain speed under idle thrust. This is why a lot of the time, operators use a single engine taxi to help control the speed.

[@iitzfizz]

@@Easyjetsimpilot I knew single engine taxiing was a thing and I even do it sometimes in the simulator but I just assumed it was for fuel saving reasons, that makes sense though.

[@Easyjetsimpilot]

The fuel and wear and tear is the main reason, the ease of controlling the taxi speed it just a benefit.

[@airsoftcoop3587]

Hopefully you are still active on this 😂 but my first flight no issues. Every flight after I’m not able to active pause…. Also on Xbox if that makes a difference

[@fabriziobonsignori3475]

Great scenery and well done on the landings. If I may ask, why is it in takeoff mode when you are in a landing? GS is not displayed on the PFD (only LOC). If you notice on the memo display, it appears TO INHIBIT and your speed is really fast. It keeps engaged the TO mode instead of the LAND mode. Is it MSFS or the fbw mode? Or maybe because you haven’t load a FROM/TO flight and you are then unable to activate the APPR phase. Thanks for the answer. For the rest, great software and scenery!

[@Easyjetsimpilot]

Thank you & yes, the scenery looked great. Will certainly visit there again! There are some bugs with the FMA. It should of course have green GS & LOC but this appears to be missing at the moment. Another bug is the ECAM saying TO INHIBIT as of course, it should be landing. You can activate the APPR phase & then the aircraft aims for the green dot speed. However, at the moment, the managed mode thrust Vapp is a little fast compared to real life. You can of course set this manually if you wish, I just left it for the sake of this tutorial.

[@fabriziobonsignori3475]

@@Easyjetsimpilot alright, I understand. Thanks for the answer! Happy flying!

[@muratyagmur3657]

I really enjoyed in heavy rainy landing tutorial...nice practice mate... runway's PAPI lights are too dim to see them... "Runway Landing Light Enhancement mod" should come as seen on FSX add-ons...we see barely the runway in those scenario...the developers had to enhance the light systems more visible even in rainy situation or foggy one...in real life, PAPI lights are visible although flying in scattered weather or heavy- rainy one...

Great video as always, i have a problem with Bing data, if I leave it ON, my sim wil always stuck on loading the map. Could you please make a video on this matter, many many thanks

[@eaucalme1]

@easyjetsimpilot To record a camera position for example on "ALT-1" key sequence, first put yourself in the correct position you want to, then hit "CTRL-ALT-1". Do it twice (dont know why only one time does not always work). Then change your position, and you will see that if you hit "ALT-1" you then come back on the recorded position ;-) BTW, thanks a lot for all your tutos that I started to follow previous week ! Great job !

[@margsritavargas5339]

Hi! How you control that a320neo? because I use the xbox series s, and keyboard, and mouse and it is awful to control this aircraft ,and the a310 ,and B747-8. Even the flight plan have too much error. The update is a bullshit,.

[@RSU214]

I assume thisis a good video, however, I am rea lly a begginer. I wanted to learn or practice landings landings. Every time I set up for a similar landing, the aircraft shows up at the runway. When I click the "fly" (yellow) key, it just totally ignores what I did, it takes off on its own, no matter if I turn or adjust the power, it keeps going, lifts off and climbs straight agead. I try to get outside views, just like you did, but I wish you could show me the steps to do that. I would appreciate some "pointers" Thanks

[@Easyjetsimpilot]

Do you have any assistance turned on (ai pilot). Make sure you select an arrival runway, and no departure runway, or you'll be set up on your departure runway at the start.

This is a great video. However, following your exact steps, my FMC doesn't behave like yours. I can't select ILS approaches that way, there is no destination airport already in the FMC as you have, and I can't even do a simple operation like put in EGCC as destination. I always get "not in database". Am I being daft?

Just tested that with the Fenix and it doesn't work, instead of being airborne, we get on the ground. Does anybody know if there is a way to make it work with the Fenix? It would be great to be able to practice without having to set a full flight each time, because it takes so long...

Sadly this technique no longer works as the sim and aircraft have changed over the last 2 year. You'll need FSIPanel now instead.

Hello friend, in FS 2020, when will the FMC work correctly for the descent in normal flights? Now it is not possible to use the FMC to descend with poor visibility, you can hit a mountain, I am very interested in your channel, greetings.

[@Easyjetsimpilot]

The FMGS will not prevent you from descending into terrain. That is your job as a pilot using charts. Vnav will not be implemented for a while yet. You can still use the FMGS to decent and respect the relevant constraints surrounding terrain. All Vnav does is decent you at the most appropriate descent rate and speed. However, you can calculate this manually.

[@neilmarkell1414]

Sorry, but I simply cannot get this to work. Every time I select and input the the ILS in MCDU it then takes the aircraft off of the straight approach and tries to pick up a far more convoluted ILS approach. Have tried this at various different airports and cannot select an ILS as demoed in this video...ie straight final.

[@Easyjetsimpilot]

Instead of selecting an approach, simply just input the ILS frequency into the RADNAV page.

Great video! However, when I set my flight up I am only about 4 nm from my destination airport. Tried several airports with the same result. Also, I have the Logitech Cessna yoke and I am having real difficulty in setting the sensitivity up correctly to make flying easy. I have tried your settings and various others but the yoke is not smooth there seems to be a slight snatch when I tried to correct my flight so the aircraft will suddenly either jump up/down or right to left. This is especially noticeable during the latter stages of the flight when making the approach/landing. I have temporarily gone back to using my Logitech Extreme 3D Pro joystick and this is much smoother in operation. Wonder if you have any suggestions on what to try next? I used the yoke with x-plane 11 and it was nowhere near as switchy in operation (but took a bit to get it right) so have to assume the hardware is OK.
