[@Ploxsource]

Matt and Squirrel. The two most hopeless pilots lol. Imagine the announcements. "Ladies and Gents, as you can see, this is Edinburgh. Get used to it. Matt left the pins in the gear so we couldn't retract the wheels."

[@IamTomas987]

It is called the landing gear mate

[@ItsSamHussey]

Matt: "It sounded like the engines had just exploded!" Squirrel: "Lovely" 😂😂😂😂

[@anonym9929]

- positive rate - gear up - put the gear up? - i just said gear up - put it up anyway XD

[@jdonovan74]

Gotta love Discord lol

[@ashokaggarwal9906]

Anonym Haha

[@blucklightfoxartinnovation9357]

V 1 V 2 Anonym 2 rate positive rate - gear up

[@Kolobochok95]

"Will it land itself?" - "Yeah it will" - Matt Davies 2017 :D

[@chipmunk449]

The Barometric pressure is seperate as a safe guard. (static pressure vents one for both captain and co-pilot)

[@tin2001]

death_by_midget I'll just like your comment instead of saying the same thing.

[@savielmonzac5014]

I just watched Matts video and then started watching this one and it was a bit confusing😂😂 for some reason I was shouting Matt you're sitting on squirrel

[@nofxstu]

Really enjoyable video guys it's great to see the collaborative effort, FYI CAT2 auto land won't land the plane only CAT3 will. Also f/o side window has no de ice or demisters in the dash so it will always get foggy! Hope this helps and looking forward to more content from you guys!

[@TheBarnem13]

Faster than Road or rail Yea right! good stuff guys loved it

[@juliegibb6408]

I'm pretty sure you forgot to put up the landing gear ⚙😂

[@Nangleator22]

Some of the back and forth did sound like a cockpit transcript after a disaster. Loved that foggy approach, though. Love to set that up for myself; take off into the soup, navigate and never see the ground again until decision height.

[@siddkumar8032]

I like seeing mistakes in videos because no one is perfect like you said but especially for games like flight sim we can sort off laugh it out together which is great and it shows that even two reasonably experienced flight simmers make mistakes

[@casementsue]

Mat “you can check the brakes but it is not Vidal part of it” Welll that’s reassuring

[@TaffinExile]

Lovely video. Finally catching up on a ton of your content on my holiday, enjoying the binge watching! Cheers.. Just seen the landing! Well we walked away which is classic pass

[@OkenWS]

If you were using real-world weather, this is exactly what the weather has been like at EGFF the last few days. I live on the seaside just to the south of RWY 30 and I was out on a run watching the 'fog' (it was just a straight up cloud, we were inside a cloud) rolling in off the Channel. Amazing stuff.

[@Domhnall_A_Ghalltachd]

It's so cool how realistic this looks, so like Edinburgh Airport!

[@RealWorldAviationandGaming9392]

Hey, love your guys videos.... Note as a ground super, most pilots will ask before pressurizing, if pins and chocks are removed before engine start.

[@djsobek86]

If someone hasn't already said it: You guys should be looking at TAF, or "Terminal Area Forecast" information if you guys are wanting to go that realistic. A list of past METARs is available alongside the TAF which gives weather information in 3-4 hour intervals into the future. Hopefully that'll help you guys prevent flying "blind" into IMC like here.

[@ThatCanadianGuy-e1p]

Most modern aircraft use a general purpose RTOS (realtime operating system) pretty much the same thing that is used in factory automation, power stations, ships etc

[@RealWorldAviationandGaming9392]

Again, Matt is so right. haven't seen a -8 video go without a hitch.... Lol

[@demoscottgaminglounge6315]

More shared cockpit in the dash 8 it's so majestic in those beautiful skies also love the shared cockpit vids with you and Matt he is is so funny you two combined are hilarious and might I just add keep up the great work and hope to see some more shared cockpit vids in the dash 8 or the plane by Airbus called the A380

[@sebastiencaplat1530]

I was one a q400 dash 8 the other day with Flybe going from Belfast to Southampton. They're super fast and mental

[@thefsxlegend961]

hi Squirrel, Cardiffs my Local airport and been very foggy recently but very fun to land in

[@nightstar786_7]

This video was pure comedy, yet still really good!

[@mackmitchell9388]

You should fly to Canada 🇨🇦 in a 747

[@Ghost96ist]

Thank you for choosing FlyBe and I hope we see you again. Our next flight, we will have at your service an engine issue. Have a good day. LOL. Nice video and really funny, please more

[@Smertyuk]

During the landing it looked like the GS was guiding the plane to the threshold of the RWY not to the touchdown marker that's why you had trees so close and 3 and then all 4 out of 4 PAPI lights red. Watching this i was like: go around! Go around! And then there was no flare and i expected the nose gear to collapse.

[@lukiemondi5007]

I love shared cockpit

[@ellonysman]

Lol, your company tag on the side says “Faster then road or rail” , lol....not this day!🤪😢✈️

[@christopherkratz7104]

Farewell Flybe!! We will never forget you

[@AlasdairAdam1]

The Ice on the props happens in real life also on the air intakes as i fly on the dash regular glasgow to East Midlands

[@LengthyEmperor]

Hats off to you guys. Looks like u need a pilot license to even play :) I wouldn't be able to do this.

[@musicalaviator]

No full autoland on the DH8D, CAT 3 only available manually flown from DA using the HUD. The main reason there's no autoland is that there isn't auto throttle.

[@Dkentflyer]

Great video Paul and what crazy weather on approach, completely agree with you about leaving mistakes in.I have recently started uploading my flight videos in the sim and they have plenty of mistakes in lol but its a great learning process.

[@vololibero8330]

moral in the story "never skip a check list item." Faster than road or rail. Yeah right! Not with those two pilots lol.

[@rubenmonsterman4044]

you two are a great problemteam together .... already fun what is going wrong next time .... haha

[@SHSprostyle]

Do a video in an airbus a380!

[@IntrepidInfinity]

go to Bournemouth and then to Jersey in the channel from Bournemouth. I've done that flight before and it's quite interesting.

[@zzzHeadShockzzz]

Not gonna lie, when Squirrel opened the video with Good Morning Matt, I nearly freaked.

[@musicalaviator]

DH8D don't have an anti-fog system on the right side window (First officers side) cos of ... stuff :P ... it's a design feature :P On the overhead there's a specific switch for "Captain's side window defog" - there is a distinct lack of "F/O side window" switch ;)

[@squirrel]

Good to know! lol

[@dextercarr7158]

Squirrel you are my best KZbiner

[@twitchclipsnow993]

Squirrel where do you get the checklist and how do you know all the preflight stuff?

[@theflyinggasmask]

Paul you can disconnect the autopilot by pressing Z on your keyboard. I recommend mapping the autopilot button to your weapons release button on your hotas :)

[@skylord8850]

Good to see a video where you fly in to my local airport

[@ellonysman]

Yes, good morning from Abbotsford cyxx🚁👍👏🏻

[@ellonysman]

Squirrel...ever fly the private/business jet Premier1? Love that aircraft! and the Premier1Driver channel in the real world!

[@dmaskell]

The power was cut about as you went past that tree on approach, of course it was going to face-plant into the ground.

[@anessenator]

This aircraft does not have autoland, mate! Cat3 only down to decision height, then you need to take it! :o

[@tomsatterthwaite9674]

Great video and graphics - good effort guys. Not sure about your landing though - more of an arrival!

[@tallishyeti2756]

I knew you left the pins in!!!!!!

[@botrbro]

Just so you know, the Q400 (in fact no turboprop) can Autoland. It just maintains the decent profile right to the ground.

[@TheTheoblad]

Keith Robb I think you meant 'can't' 😀

[@botrbro]

Errrr.... yup. My fingers were not typing what I was thinking. :)

[@OfficialBeaverYT]

+Squirrel Please do a flight From EGHI (Southampton Intl) as it's my local airport! :D

[@ghoztie6713]

Paul, you and Matt reminds me of Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy in these vid's lol

[@otbusiness8653]

U didnt have 20%, almost idle power

[@sunnyyan1080]

Just got an ad for Construction Simulator 2 half way through!

[@PercyPruneMHDOIFandBars]

Is it just me, or does the exterior sound of that dash in flight sound uncannily like the 707 in "Airplane!"? It does somehow fit you guys. 😉

[@rhyshutch]

Finally flew into my home airport! :)

[@viktorc9682]

Another great video Paul ! I love the dash 8 and I especially love the music that you put in the video when you show us the plane:-)

[@andand-yx7xt]

Love your intro

[@DoselH]

Squirrel should be the Pilot because he is the oldest lol

[@computer5272]

Shouldn't the most qualified person be the pilot? If there's a 6 year old who knows more about flying this plane than he does, the 6 year old should be the pilot. Why does age matter? lol

[@HowToCameron]

he said "lol" he was joking

[@computer5272]

Putting "lol" at the end of a statement does not constitute a joke. You're either trolling or just plain ignorant.

[@cliftonthompson2849]

He meant that as a joke.

[@computer5272]

Ayy check it out a random popping in just to insult someone rather than provide a rational argument because that's too hard for a fool.

[@MastersDoesGaming]

I love these shared cockpit videos could you do a Euro truck video with Matt

[@jdonovan74]

That would require online and online in ATS/ETS is ass. Of course not my call, but it really is ass.

[@Sanderos25]

That music is really reminiscent of the Antarctica soundtrack by Vangelis

[@aaronrooney6559]

You two are great haha! Keep it up please!

[@jsamuel5116]

Squirrel reminds me of my dad. Always says the lights are too bright.

[@jessemururia6365]

please do more of this damn

[@ivardozon8064]

Squirrel, do you fly with real weather, if so, when exactly did you take off from Edinburgh?

[@archieskelding1074]

I love this so so much !!!!!

[@kswindlehurst]

If you guys keep it up you'll have to brand Flybe to fly maybe 😂

[@demoscottgaminglounge6315]

Squirrel you should try using line it's like discord but way better plus even when the mic doesn't sound good you are able to still here the person instead of were on discord when the voice over thing gets bad it cuts your voice were on line you don't have to worry about that

[@kamikazeman]

Woop woop music would be interesting

[@SpeedSetSims]

Can you please do a flight from Edinburgh to Kirkwall please

[@FlavourlessLife]

1:22:06 Yeah, you can tell from Matt's responses that he hadn't heard your replies... RIP.

[@ItsSamHussey]

When I buy this the first flight I'll do after the tutorial is a 8 Q400 flybe flight from Heathrow to Southampton

[@ignacehelsen7609]

I love these videos!

[@yazeed6276]

love these vids more

[@aidandietz6835]

L.............O.................L That is insane.... I mean WOW how did you even close to make that I didn’t even know it ecsepted that every time I played I never made it in to that situation good work

[@kenshaw6985]

hnnnnng!!! second time lucky haha brilliant loved it

[@noxy_key]

Faceplant for autopilot, the shortest landing ever, tricky

[@X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X]

If you guys had the choice: Which GA aircraft by A2A should I buy?

[@danparisi97]

X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X c172 definitely. I have that and the piper Cherokee and the 172 is much better! I don't have the 182 though

[@X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X]

Than you very much, Daniel. Why do you prefer the 172 if I may ask?

[@musicalaviator]

The autopilot on the C172 is 'easier' than the thing they stuck on the Cherokee. I happen to like the Cherokee myself, but that's mostly due to flying Archers more than C172's. Also, for Flightsim purposes, it's much easier to see out the side windows in the Cherokee than the 172. You can see the horizon when turning toward that direction for instance, which you can't in the Cessna. The C182 is also gorgeous... And a touch quicker than the 172. In the real world a 182 is much more than a "Fast C172", it's literally wider, taller and roomier inside. A bigger aircraft all round. Its a pity they didn't make it an RG and give us 10 more knots :P I have all 3, and love em all. I haven't gotten the Comanche because I've never been in a real one and am unlikely to ever be. Also that whole "Radio stack to the left side of the Pilot" thing is strange.

[@X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X]

Thank you.

[@BillyBoze]

Not to rush, but any ETA on My Summer Car? Really excited to see you race the Rally! :)

[@97I30T]

+Joshiplier Squirrel does these shared cockpit videos because many of his subscribers asked for more videos like this.

[@catz8449]

"Edinburgh Tower this is FlyBe 4508, we forgot to pull the pins on the landing gear so we would like to return to Edinburgh so we can get the pins pulled." - Matt and Paul, March 17th 2017

[@cedric12]

Would you do a flight with Brussels airlines and depart or arrive at Brussels airport?

[@playlisthouse8165]

Do a flight from london to Birmingham

[@FiremixerGaming]

one error at the start, Dash Q400's taxi with Engine 1 on only, they start Engine 2 before the start of the runway.

[@lewisCbacon]

depends on what airline it is

[@FiremixerGaming]

I know that Flybe do the One Engine Taxi. as ive flown with them for a while

[@Bisonrulz16]

Flew on a Flybe Dash 8 Q400 twice not long ago, at Southampton airport they taxi'd with 1 engine started and at Düsseldorf they taxi'd with 2 engines. It probably depends on airport/airline/pilot.

[@alexandadventures5434]

Hey squirrel are you planning on making any videos on cattle and crops the game looks so realistic and would love to see you review it like you did with farming simulator 17 thanks love your videos!

[@ZeroGaming-ds7mb]

no Q400 can autoland, maybe it will land "itself" in P3D but not properly. It is certified, if equipped with HUD, for CATIIIa approach which is no DH but minimum RVR of 200m and it is manually landed, the Q400 cannot land itself under any circumstances.

[@baley7]

Matt was right, it does seem like you idled the power prematurely.

[@squirrel]

Look at the RPMs on the display. I lowered from 20 to 10 (which is my mistake) but I did not idle the power. The confusion came because I was trying to control the aircraft but Matt had not taken the AP out (because Discord didn't transmit my voice for some reason). That is what screwed us over.

[@Cg23sailor]

Squirrel , You're right about "Any landing you can walk away from is a good one". But a great landing is one in which you can use the plane again afterwards. I do believe that's a down aircraft until maintenance can go over the gear and airframe. 😁

[@musicalaviator]

Do you have paid FSUIPC or some other way of binding autopilot disconnect to a button on your yoke? Standard way of doing things would be for the Pilot flying to disconnect autopilot with the yoke mounted button, and the Pilot Not flying to confirm that the autopilot disconnects by checking the MCP light/PFD modes and challenge Pilot Flying if he doesn't call they have control. I know the Majestic has some oddities with pressing Ctrl+Shift+Z on the keyboard to disconnect on occasion, so I think the FSUIPC method is the only sure way without mousing over buttons in the virtual cockpit which is a pain, but getting it on your physical yoke would be a better idea, then pilot flying can choose for them self when they become the pilot actually flying.

[@TheTheoblad]

That, and Matts insistence that the Q400 definitely has autoland, which it absolutely doesn't. This is why you got smashed into the ground, there's no flare.

[@ZeroGaming-ds7mb]

You are right, Q400 does not have autoland. It it certified, if equipped with HUD, for CATIIIa aproach which is no DH but minimum RVR of 200m and it is manually landed, the Q400 does not land itself.

[@lexamodz3685]

My summer car man 😭😭😭

[@ziggybowman6875]

Does anybody recognize the background music in the plane?

[@RubenGamerFN]

Could you please make a TAP Air Portugal flight from Manchester Airport to Lisbon Airport

[@tobybloomfield6193]

great vid

[@LengthyEmperor]

I think it would be great to have an open world type sim that has different jobs. Multiplayer Eg.. Plane sim - people play as pilots, others load/unload baggage and re-fuel Ur aircraft. Perhaps pushing it, playing ATC. Truck simulator.. people load/unload Trailer.

[@tin2001]

Lengthy Emperor When robots have replaced almost every human job, these virtual simator jobs might be how we all keep from going insane.... I look forward to my new job of virtual garbage collector servicing the classier parts of Sydney, New York and Paris.

[@Callum23-02]

i dont know if it just me i have noticed that matts mic cuts out at some points

[@RoryHanna]

These are just the childhood videos...

[@Dillique]

YES

[@contraposaune]

Yeah the 402Q doesn't have CATIII :P

[@NorskGamer1]

Kan you flay from London to Trondheim Norway.

[@cliftonthompson2849]

Wait, isn't the whole purpose of a checklist to check everything before you take off. But either way made for a great video.

[@Duvstep910]

+Squirrel where do you guys plan your flight plans? (including charts and such)

[@rolmaxify]

Duvanie Smart PFPX for Flight planning (thats what Matt uses in his video so I assume Squirrel uses it too) and I think (but not entirely sure) they get the charts from Navigraph

[@Duvstep910]

thanks m8

[@beardedbaldy3814]

hiya great vid as allways,i just revisited fishing planet big changes for the good,pop in and take a look.

[@justinkoster4417]

if you can, can you plz do a dash flight with a porter airlines skin

[@sexyguy3647]

Are you ever going to continue world of subways?

[@sexyguy3647]

thats why i want him to continue it

[@madbro9977]

I love cardiff
