This is the level of detail I want when I build my new computer for Microsoft Flight Simulator.

[@TheFlightShow]

Cool!

[@dawaane]

This is where the reddit and Instagram post was created ! Very cool video ;)

[@TheFlightShow]

Haha yes! Thanks!

[@ricmagioni1]

Your computer config is great man! Congrats. P3dv5 is great. Obviuslly MSFS2020 once download real world scenary will be even better but will only have machines to run like your in 5 or 6 years to start reaching out same fps and smothness.

[@TheFlightShow]

Yeah my PC is a beast 💪! MSFS will definitely be able to run smoothly in a few years (already can on lower settings which still look very good)

[@davidrosenblum2178]

You certainly didn’t need to do a packs off takeoff! Great detail, I’d like to know your specs.

[@TheFlightShow]

Yeah I should have thought more about the outside temperature 😆. My PC specs are in the description

[@davidrosenblum2178]

@@TheFlightShow ,. I see that now, thanks. I think I’ll be upgrading my 1080Ti soon. That looks so smooth!

Beautiful 🤩

You are the best! But i have a question. How much did you pay for the p3d?

[@TheFlightShow]

Thanks! How much did I pay for it? Idk really but at least $500 so yeah... not cheap rip wallet.

[@TheFlightShow]

Well for only the base simulator (Prepar3D v5 Academic Licence) that was $60

[@semajsachairi84]

The engine when you took off

[@syafiqlaw5634]

How did you have the GSX level 2 for Kai Tak?

[@TheFlightShow]

I don’t have GSX Level 2 I only have GSX Level 1 so maybe you meant SODE jetways?

[@pascalwagner6896]

What was the temperature that day in Singapore?

[@TheFlightShow]

I don’t remember

well im redoing my challenging approaches on p3d v5 now.tomorrow im flying to Samos!

[@TheFlightShow]

Cool!

[@M1A2-X]

would be interested to watch non fastforward version

[@krishavsehdev7490]

Smooth

[@TheFlightShow]

Yes

[@mikkelgxp8573]

is this the default P3d graphics? been considering to get P3d with just like a 737 or something i really like the PMDG 737 its just really hard to get information on P3d without the knowledge of where to get the information

[@TheFlightShow]

Default P3D is really shit, so if you want to buy P3D and make it look anything near this good, you need to be prepared to spend a lot of money. All the addons (mods) I use are listed in the description of my videos. Just google them and you’ll see websites to buy them. Of course not all the addons are essential, but certain ones (like Chaseplane, ORBX Base, Active Sky, GSX) are. Feel free to ask any other questions you have to me and I’ll be happy to help!

[@mikkelgxp8573]

@@TheFlightShow fuck me thats alot of addons Xd alright then i might not switch... its just the PMDG 737 :O i have seen videos on it and it looks so good :OOOO

[@TheFlightShow]

Yeah PMDG aircraft (and FSLabs) are the best in all of flight sim if you ask me, but of course that comes with a cost. Maybe wait till PMDG makes their aircraft for MSFS and buy them then :)

[@mikkelgxp8573]

@@TheFlightShow yeah but the problem is i depsice MSFS lol... i really like flying planes and dont really like flying birds... or in MSFS flying bricks would be more accurate Xd

[@gasviation9077]

5:51 i got chills

[@TheFlightShow]

Yeah the engine sounds are so immersive!

[@DeanStringer]

Great vid and excellent landing (I'm still practicing mine :-) nice showcase of ImagineSim Singapore too, you've sold me on that now

[@TheFlightShow]

Yeah I had to practice the Kai Tak landing before I recorded this video (still went a bit low, managed to hide that in the video). ImagineSim Singapore is great too but not the best for performance.

[@simworld2508]

Awesome video with amazing realism, really enjoyed it. You deserve more subs and views, your content is really worth every minute of the video. Keep it up.

[@TheFlightShow]

Thanks! Sorry for the late reply the comment was put into spam for some reason by KZbin

[@PandaAviator-xw5ru]

Nice video, I’m wondering how much storage flytampa takes up? I’m looking to getting the scenery myself

[@TheFlightShow]

Thanks! It doesn’t use up much storage. I can’t remember exactly how much but no more than 2GB

[@PandaAviator-xw5ru]

@@TheFlightShow Alr thank you

[@darrenliewweiyao]

How do we add AI traffic and the SID for Kai Tak in P3dv4?

[@TheFlightShow]

I can’t remember exactly but I think to add navdata for Kai Tak I had to add it through Navigraph or something (search online to find out exactly how). I didn’t actually have any AI traffic working at Kai Tak, all the planes were just static models included in the FlyTampa scenery

[@thanos8039]

What saddens me the most is I’ll never be able to sum because I’ll never be able to afford a pc with specs like that

[@thanos8039]

Sim**

[@TheFlightShow]

Well, you don’t need specs even close to as high-end as I have. You could go for a much cheaper option and still be able to flight sim. I used to flight sim on an old MacBook lol

[@CarlosQuesadaR]

Oh wow how did you manage to do the camara shots from 13:13 to 13:38? This is my favorite airport of all times and my fav plane too. Awesome video. It is very difficult for me to land here

[@TheFlightShow]

Thanks! I was able to do those camera shots with chaseplane in replay mode by setting up static cameras. Also it is hard to land at! I had to do a practice before this flight lol

[@CarlosQuesadaR]

@@TheFlightShow Thank you, I'll have to explore chaseplane a bit more then :-)

[@TheFlightShow]

No problem!

[@yuval737]

amazing approach! where did you get the SID/STARS from?

[@TheFlightShow]

I can’t remember exactly but I think in the manual for FlyTampa Kai Tak there’s a guide for it. You could probably search for any KZbin video tutorials on it as well.

[@yuval737]

@@TheFlightShow thank you!

[@vladimirkurdish2318]

What sound effects you use? That engine roaring sounds amazing

[@TheFlightShow]

Completely default PMDG sounds :)

[@joseeduardobarrientos3422]

@@TheFlightShow ever tried the TSS RR RB211 soundpack? it absolutely sounds awesome too! :) both the default and the TSS sound pack for the PMDG 747 sounds great but for me, i think i like the tss better. nice landing btw :)

[@21mattypug]

Nice video mate do you get many device Hungs with your card?

[@TheFlightShow]

Thanks! Add this to your Prepar3d.cfg under [GRAPHICS] and you won't have any more of those issues: ShowDeviceLostWarning=0 ENABLE_MEMORY_OPTIMIZATION=0

[@21mattypug]

TheFlightShow ah your a legend I’ll give it a go I have a 2080 too amazing card

[@TheFlightShow]

No problem!

[@AviationAlex]

nice

[@TheFlightShow]

Thank you!

[@YukariAkiyamaTanks]

This is why i love the pmdg 747, its simply amazing

[@TheFlightShow]

Yeah it’s awesome. Probably my favourite aircraft to fly in the sim

[@YukariAkiyamaTanks]

@@TheFlightShow may I ask how did you get runway 13 into the pmdg 747?

[@TheFlightShow]

I actually can’t remember but I’m pretty sure on the FlyTampa website or manual you can see instructions or maybe in Navigraph
