"charming flight attendants who might just let you out without a beating......alright the passengers are dealt with". Now THAT is customer service! 🤣

[@lmb5529bml]

That catched me off guard 😂

[@jamesmurawski44]

The GE90 startup is fire in the PMDG. Whenever a 777-300ER starts up outside my office at work, you know what aircraft it is. Great videos lately, thank you!

[@amirtak9886]

Yeah is its like a big moooo

[@Jaync5894-ge1em]

Another great flight by a professional pilot. I would be your passenger anytime and have zero worries. Loving the 777 myself.

[@abangfayyad343]

Nice flight! Can I request flight from Jakarta (WIII/CGK) to Jeddah (OEJN/JED) with Garuda Indonesia B777-300ER? Thank you!

[@gwalker3092]

Thanks for all the comprehensive videos and really looking forward to ebook, im interested to see how it turns out , I expect it’s a lot of work

[@A330Driver]

Thank you so much! Sitting down at the hotel table right now to write the next chapter!

[@gwalker3092]

This will be a quick 13h flight…..😂. Can finally do proper flights from west coast to JPN/KR. Thx for the video been really fun on the 777 your videos have been very informative

[@jamesbp]

You make it so dang fun to fly with you, whilst learning so so much from your knowledge!

[@b3njroverr67]

Could you please make a playlist for ETOPS and oceanic flights, i am trying to find all your ETOPS videos but some older ones you did on the A340 are much harder to find. 🙏🏻 ( cant wait for your A330 tutorials especially ETOPS on those) 👌🏻

[@Delta-airlines-737]

Bro this is a great video really realistic

[@wingersoncaquias5163]

Nice video you can make a video of SimBrief detailed flight plan and forecast

[@captainrogerdodger144]

Hello. You should show and explain your preffered simulation and performance settings of the 777

[@A330Driver]

Hi, I'll do a video about them soon!

[@cocox9948]

Great video ! I really like this 777,I have the A320 Fenix and 737 PMDG and my frames are pretty good almost 50 fps with all max to ultra but with this 777 start pretty good but sometimes i see my frames drop to 25 fps and is only with this airplane I think something is wrong

[@worldofai-games1036]

In SFO, the pushback tractors usually pull large jets forward to the concrete patch @44:36 and the pilots would start their engines there to minimize jet blast damage to the parked jets in the F gates. Does MSFS have customized push options where the tractor can also pull the plane forward?

[@A330Driver]

MSFS can not do that. There are some third party addons however that have such ability.

[@jrod_pilot_miami]

Excellent video! Curious, I noticed after flaps up the FMS set the flaps up speed above the 250 kt restriction below 10,000. Shouldn't the speed restriction supersede the flaps up speed?

[@ppaulino04]

Hey! That's normal when taking off close or at MTOW, normally you'd just let atc know that you can't meat the restriction in advance and either ask for your up speed or be given "free speed" to do as you wish :)

[@jrod_pilot_miami]

@@ppaulino04 well, that makes sense. Thanks for the insight!

[@smithkenny8034]

that's true the real PEK ground aircons are really weak, usually we will ask the flight crews if they are willing to leave the packs on instead of using ground aircon

[@A330Driver]

hahaha, wow! Well, at least you have any units at all! Here in Germany we don't even have such units - and it's not like the temperature commonly doesn't go over 30°C in summer as well.

[@extremedude8000]

Do you happen to know if any replay tool is working to integrate the 777? I've yet to see any videos where it shows extended flaps etc on replay's and was hoping that this would be a high priority with how popular the plane is

[@kurohone]

Pretty sure there's an actual market out there for Flight Dispatch Simulator.

[@madsib5187]

Wow, wonderful flight and route! I wonder if you sped up the stream or if you used the built in time acceleration (or both?)?

[@A330Driver]

Hi, it was a combination of both. I filmed at 4x simrate and then used something around 2000x replay speed in the video editor.

[@Richard_McDonald_Woods]

Excellent!

I am also a real world airline pilot and flight sim enthusiast, but I really don't know how you can "work" on another long haul flight on your days off. I am only flying GA and DCS when I'm home. Please help me find strength to fly airlines in the sim😂

I also have a problem with simbrief flight sheet in PMDG EFB. It doesnt import simbrief flightplan though it's been already created

[@a350pilot]

What Threshold time and Target scenario you use for ETOPS on this route?

[@ivanbeinner7143]

How long did that take in real time?? Did you use the sim rate function?

[@philiporbesz6410]

hey guys, i am right now on vacation till the morning and cant watch the video because of poor wifi.. does he skip the time like cutting the video? or does he use the time acceleration in sim? I am interested in trying long hauls but using time accelration

[@thegrinchlol1106]

Dear Emanuel Great video! Could you please make a tutorial how to load the flight plan from simbrief into the PMDG 777. I have Navigraph + and it still does not work. Kind regards Samuel

[@Quotenwagnerianer]

It''s simple. First you load it up into the tablet. Once it shows up there you can use the route downlink function of the FMC and this will then give you the option to either load a stored flight or the current Simbrief flight.

[@thegrinchlol1106]

@@Quotenwagnerianer thank you, but the problem is that I can’t load it into the tablet

[@Quotenwagnerianer]

@@thegrinchlol1106 Then you have to check your login in the tablet. Your Simbrief Alias belongs in there not the number.

There weird issues with your cpu atm even intel don’t know fully. However everything you’ve done should help and is most you can do at present. I use AMD and have been flying all days since release at least 8hrs real time and no issues at all the performance has been great, even better than I could have hoped. Thx to all involved at Pmdg for the performance that’s been achieved with such a comprehensive aircraft simulation.

[@garrenvanderpool6804]

@A330 Driver I was on an A320 Allegiant airlines and at 10,000 feet I hear 4 beeps to release the cabin crew. I also saw the emergency exit lights come on and back off. What button in the cockpit do the pilots press to make that happen?

[@Virty24]

they have a button for emergency exit lights they just turned it on and off again

[@andrewbennett2582]

May I ask what setting you use for the turbulence in MSFS? I never can decide what feels the most realistic.

[@Virty24]

realistic turbulence i’ve noticed with the 777 is bad, the engines shake constantly and looking out the window just make it’s weird, i’ve got it to low and it’s just perfect

[@andrewbennett2582]

@@Virty24 thanks. Yeah I’ve been on medium for a while. But even then sometimes I think that’s it’s just a bit too much.

[@marcwatson3894]

Hi. May not be the correct forum for my question, but any help would be grateful. My AIRAC in the 777 is stuck on APR/MAY, even though the Navigragh Hub is undated to the current AIRAC. I've logged into my account in the EFB, and it still stays at APR/MAY? I have issues with the park brake not staying on - I can see a re-install coming.....

There's a bug with the navigraph installer at the moment. A solution is available in their forums.

Please contact PMDG support, they should be able to help. support.pmdg.com

[@iaexo]

I tend to avoid flying in China because of all the metric units... winds in metres per second (about x2 to convert to knots), QFE, metric RVSM which means I got to have the conversion chart out, and on VATSIM if you don't understand mandarin you won't understand any of the calls ATC makes to other aircraft. Also the satellite imagery isn't that great.

[@VTK519]

You literally just listed the reasons why it's more interesting to fly there, at least to learn something new about flying online :) By the way, China doesn't use QFE.

[@iaexo]

@VTK519 Interesting, I remember the ATIS on VATSIM giving the altimeter setting in QFE instead of QNH, but that was some time back. Might have confused it with Russia, where I'm pretty certain they use QFE around the aerodromes. And I have and will continue to fly in Chinese airspace, just that it's not my favourite place to fly in. Have even participated in some of their domestic events. I do speak mandarin but am not familiar with Chinese aviation terminology, so I communicate in English with the controllers. Kind of funny when you hear your callsign in mandarin, and then have to let the controllers know you're English-only.

[@logansmith9486]

How you accelerate time in fs2020 ? thanks for answer

[@Virty24]

on the efb at the top where it says ‘AUTO CRUISE’ press on that and you can see all the settings, you can change the sim rate manually but don’t make the mistake like I did by changing max sim rate to 8x and thinking if I press it again it will reset to 1x it won’t and will crash ur game, auto time compression is good and will speed up ur game in areas it feels necessary and slows down for turns and step climbs
