X-Plane 11 - Learn to fly a RNAV Approach

[@JReuland]

It's extremely rare that someone tries and tries a video before uploading it!!! Well done Sir! I learned perfectly how to land a RNAV! Too bad you have stopped to make further videos. I know it is very time consuming! Again thank you and all the best.👍👍👍👍👍

[@steveyford7127]

The first but about the altimeter is exactly what I have been looking for. Perfectly explained

[@robertgreen7715]

Well done, great explanations, thank you for taking the time to share Richard Green !

[@ethanponce6770]

You need to arm the SB's during the appr checklist, it is not that hard all you do is pull the handle reward just a little and a green light will illuminate just above the ND and it will say SB's armed, that way when the gear touchdown they deploy. And reversers should be stopped at 60kts and manual brake after that. the altitude during the approach should also be set to the published missed approach altitude. Other than that great landing. :)

[@mr.martintorres5804]

Thanks for the 60kts advice on the reverse thrusters. Personally, I would have used the SBs to drag off speed when lining up the approach rather than lowering the landing gear so soon as Jason did.

[@ishtiyaqmakda-coffeelover3942]

Thanks for this awesome video. Could you please do RNAV approach with default FMC in XPlnane 11 on B747-400? I will be grateful. Thanks.

[@lalochivafan]

Hey Jason, good video just one thing that would add to the realism. When you set the cabin altitude, don’t set it too high. 11,000 feet and your pax might have a little trouble breathing and if someone has weaker lungs, it could cause a medical emergency. From my experience (I don’t fly the 737) we climbed up to FL260 and had set the pressure altitude to 7,000 ft.

[@christopherboyer583]

As always, fantastic video! I’ve learned so much from your tutorials. Thanks for clarifying avoiding the APP function for RNAV! Also would you mind listing the type of system and hardware you use. I’m planning on purchasing a new system and want to invest in the proper hardware for the best experience! Thank you!:)

[@mr.martintorres5804]

Very informative video. Learned many things. Hopefully I can do this w/o having Zibo Mod. Can't wait to try this myself. Since you flew in high visibility conditions, I'm sure many here would have the opinion of disengaging the AP sooner & hand flying the landing. You can't let the plane have all the fun Jason!!!

[@petraeva7698]

I see the B737 has a fully programmable fms-cdu. Unfortunately, the Xplane 747's fms-cdu is extremely limited. Great video and well explained. Thank you !

[@ChristopherDrieberg]

Thank you Captain Jason. Very informative and entertaining. I was just missing a way to clearly locate what your comments were referring to on the instrument panels (I am new to flight simulators :)). Thanks again.

[@petrospapanikolaou6538]

Another great video.Do everything how you said and land in stormy conditions.Only question is how do i get the flight info that you show in beggining of the video and import all in fmc (I do have simbrief but its 20 pages of info and cant understead everything there,your infos is more compact),THX anyway.

[@waamamps]

hi new to x plane how did you come up with cot index 23. thank you

[@diegoadum2701]

Thanks for this video! I've lean a couple of things here!! Really nice!!

[@mr.martintorres5804]

I'm not familiar with where the takeoff/Go Around button is!!! Need a little help. 11:12

[@TheREALDocRabbit]

for future viewers, it's on the throttle controls, or you can just configure a TOGA button on your joystick for it.

[@robertbrown9154]

Thank you Jason,another excellent demonstration where lots of new learning has taken place,also very new for me the approach button , what would happen if it was engaged in error? I feel I have done it several times,without realising the effect. Best wishes keep up the great work Robert

[@scottellis5645]

Well done, great explanations, thank you!

[@pminhas]

I have learned alot. Thanks so much, this was exactly what I needed.

[@edwardruiz4316]

Where do you get the plates ?

[@rudavalek]

Hi Jason, would you like to try something a bit challenging? The approach and landing at LFKJ rwy 20.

[@JasonVriends]

Sure

[@Greazer]

You Do Press APP for RNAV in 737-800. Called RNAV IAN Mode check it out.

[@JasonVriends]

Not from all the reading that I have done from the Zibo forms but I could be wrong.

[@Greazer]

[@JasonVriends]

@@Greazer This is great, thanks! You can't imagine how many threads I read where some said Yes and others said No. So if I understand correct, selecting APP during the RNAV approach puts you in IAN mode which allows LPV minimums if your aircraft is capable. Perhaps with this I wouldn't have been high without changing the Altimeter etc.

[@Greazer]

@@JasonVriends some airlines don't use IAN, for instance real pilot flightdecks2sim his airline dont. They do RNAV with lnav/vnav. IAN calculates the lateral and vertical using computer and GPS. On the PFD you get FAC and G/P. Regarding minimums I *think* you use the lnav/vnav minimums according to this: www.avsim.com/forums/topic/354645-ian-approach-which-minimums-to-use/

[@ethanponce6770]

Yes someone knows how to fly the 737 correctly.

[@ice_ryda]

Was that a United announcement on a Westjet flight. 🤔

[@Diga6ft]

immaterial?

[@hhobegginernew]

The speed you set for takeoff on mcp is v2 and not vr

[@TheREALDocRabbit]

The TCAS being off was a bit worrying to me, good thing no one else was flying this day or FAA would have been at the gate ready to arrest the pilot. :)

[@larissasousa5052]

Hello, captain. Top quality contents and well-made video. Thank you. Larissa.

[@szegfukornel8805]

Thanks it was useful. I have a question. I just bought the Yoke and this game so i dont know anything i just flew with no settings, but everything was set in the yoke perfectly and after take off as i stopped pushing the yoke forward to stop increasing the heights, the plane started going up nearly vertically almost every time. ( my hands were not on the Yoke control) Can you explain me or give me any help why its happening?

[@alexl7989]

Are you pushing forward to go up?

[@szegfukornel8805]

Alex L i was pushing forward to point the nose to the ground and pulling to point up to the sky so it was perfectly set. But somwhow when i wanted to land and i pushed the joystick forward nothing really happend. As i let it back to neutral position the plane started going up vertically and i dont know why. Maybe the velocity or sth else that blocked but im still triing to figure out.

[@alexl7989]

@@szegfukornel8805 Szegfű Kornél My best guess is that it's a trim or C of G issue. Those are the most likely to cause such a violent pitch up. Make sure the aircraft is properly trimmed for landing and the centre of gravity is within limits.

[@mr.martintorres5804]

Calibrate your Yoke, Throttle & rudders controls frequently. That's my experience with XP 11.

[@mjcranga]

If you rounded down instead of up for the landing altitude, do you think it would make a difference and prevent you from coming in a little too low.

[@lalochivafan]

Negative, that’s just for the cabin pressurization/depressurization. It has nothing to do with the approach.

[@AllenPortman]

Maybe the increased headwind forced the plane down lower on approach?

[@Karlsmarten]

1:05 It says approach type = RNAV (RMP) Z. Was is supposed to say RNAV (RNP) Z?

[@bruceyboy7349]

Hey Jason. How are you doing?

[@pbr2805]

How do you get the flight attendance to give their speech? I have the current version of x plane 11 and the B737-800. There must be something wrong with my setup? Any help would be appreciated.

[@aviation_tus]

You can’t use the default 737, it had to be Zibo.

[@pbr2805]

I have x plane 11 and the B 737-800 and I do not have the same FMC as you show. It does not have the Perf Init. Any way I can obtain it?

[@aviation_tus]

You have to get the Zibo 737. There are plenty of great videos on how to download and install it on KZbin and it’s free. Have a nice day

[@PaulieCav777]

Thankyou Jason 👍✈️😎🇺🇸 Always an Easy to understand Tutorial, esp. with the ZIBO, Which is the Best 737 Freeware Aircraft in Xplane 11, & Everyone Loves to Fly 💜✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️👍

[@brianscharsch9767]

Very cool 👍

[@ilGattoMistico]

well done !!

[@alexl7989]

36R means three six right, not thirty six romeo. Just a little phraseology nitpicking

[@elweewutroone]

It is not “Runway three six ROMEO”, but rather “Runway three six RIGHT”!

[@TheGbelcher]

You can also click on the airport in the map and it will get you the alt setting. In the real world you call ATIS but since X-Plane ATC is such absolute trash, there’s no point in doing it that way.

[@JasonVriends]

I didn't know it was also available in the map. The Avitab in Zibo mod has the ATIS, so I have been using that.

[@kossboss]

bro your intro is way too loud. in your next videos please lower it. sounds aggressive and shit

[@Del_Monico]

GRRR! Why does everyone use that STUPID bloated zibo mod?

[@TheREALDocRabbit]

uh..., because its the best 737 mod available for X-Plane... Hands down, for free at that.

[@deltaman1233]

First

[@AUSTIN12345631]

so only vnav and lnav is needed to guide you down, also I could not see how you cleared the reverse thrust. Good one Jason.
