A32nx ILS Tutorial | FlyByWire Instrument Approach

In this Microsoft Flight Simulator video we do an instrument approach tutorial with the FlyByWire A32nx, We look at the charts, setup the approach in the MCDU and then fly it on autopilot all the way down to minimums.

you forgot to Arm the Speedbrakes. Keep in mind next time.

[@davidnaylor83]

Thanks for the tutorial! I'm feeling inspired to have a look at some real charts and not just rely on the built in approaches in MSFS.

[@leohors852]

Hello, My question is; before approaching, on the MCDU are you >Activating (APPR PHASE) or not? At the final APPR your aircraft is slightly in angle from the ND! [OHHH....you made slight right turn to get in the runway... . I like your tutorial.

[@vnnn3962]

At landing runway was not inline with direction of flight. So you had to turn right to line up. I know: this way is given by instruments, but why does this be best way of landing? - Sorry for my bad english.

[@RealSimPilot]

This approach has what is called an offset localizer due to the terrain on the left hand side of the approach. It keeps the aircraft away from the coastline.

[@davidnaylor83]

Was wondering about this too.

[@Dakigamess]

I think I've done all of steps (i was even flying the same route) but i had a problem, the F-Plan disconnect, and I couldn't CLR it, but i landed safely as the AP disconnected.. And also I'm getting ''Too low terrain'' warning even if I'm perfectly okay at height and PAPI is half white and half red.... Btw I'm new and i haven't got a lot of knowledge, and this was my second flight LFPG-LFMN.

[@DPatau]

2 year old video and still very informational. when ever i need some help i come straight to @Real Sim Pilot first :) well done

[@reticentsimmer]

Do you have a video for a localizer only approach using the FPA mode?

[@lenhjalmarson]

Really great overall. For some of us less familiar with the MDCU you move a little quick at times. A lot to learn altho SimBrief integration has helped!

[@aero3831]

Great video! kinda sad tho that for a few AIRRAC's and Charts I need to pay 10 euro a month (Navigraph) but you have a great video. Btw you have 787 likes now so yeah :)

[@CactusBravo42]

When are you supposed to tune the ILS when it needs to be done manually?

[@leohors852]

you know what! I just flew the same FP and and I start earlier to descant and I did not get on time at FL4000 and AP > APPR went to manual landing.. what is my mistake?

[@yams900]

Well explained, clear as mud :)

[@karlos417]

I can’t remember what I done the other day on approach but had a nice curve going into Oslo and it missed a way point on approach any ideas what I done wrong ?

[@AlanNFuller]

Another great instructional video #RealSimPilot . I'm beginning to get to grips with this aircraft and your video's have accelerated my learning. You've got my subscription!. I really appreciate all the work you put into them. They're clear, understandable, to-the-point and relative. Looking forward to the next one...

[@ralphconnell8163]

As usual, clear and precise. Thanks. Got to say, you keep calm on approach. I''ll try this, daytime though. Night time looks scary

[@joby1387]

your videos are fantastic best i have seen your a great teacher buddy great pace and explanation of what your doing and why

[@joby1387]

hey do you have any RNAV approach tutorials please

[@SkysimAir]

interesting, but the most important stuff is missing. What to click when in the cockpit to reduce height, reduce speed, set up the localizer/glide slope bugs, pressure etc. What we not need is another explanation for the ILS charts, that is covered by so many other videos already.

[@romainwio9225]

True, have you find anything that answered your questions ?

[@Perseileva_orava]

this was a ILS tutorial not a tutorial how to fly the plane + you should know how to slow down a plane by default.

[@Topcat1952]

Very useful. Thanks. One question: on the FCU what is the difference between the Approach button and the LS (Landing System) button? Some confusion on my part. Thanks again!

[@RealSimPilot]

The LS button is simply a display that comes up on the PFD which shows the ILS glideslop and localiser markers.

[@Topcat1952]

@@RealSimPilot Thanks.

[@BobBob-cu7ne]

When you program the arrival into the module, it never works for me, the flight plan looks like a mess does anyone know what I might have done?

[@martin_gaming7692]

If ur on about the star and it has gaps then thats the discontinues on the module thijg (idk what its called) press the clear button until it says clr at the bottom and press the discontinues and it should fill the gaps (u access the discontinues on the f-pln page) im assuming thats what u mean

[@BijanStewart]

Just earned a sub. Your instructional videos are really good. Keep them coming!

[@masramos1966]

Hello i have the same plane but weather radar is not available how do you get it working ? Thx

[@RealSimPilot]

Weather radar is not available yet.

[@yams900]

Nice mate ! How do you fly without ATC? Do I need to program STAR manually ?

[@RealSimPilot]

You can turn it off in the options.

[@cornucopiahouse4204]

I wanna know how I can engage the heading and the speed that I want using the mouse... The same trick with altitude - left then right clicks - doesn't work.

[@RealSimPilot]

Standby for my next video where I go over the autopilot and answer this exact question.

[@cornucopiahouse4204]

@@RealSimPilot Looking forward to it!

[@Fromatic]

@@cornucopiahouse4204 Yes, I never get the little up\down arrow appear to push or pull the knob when I put the mouse over it, cant find any info on how you get that to appear

[@cornucopiahouse4204]

@@Fromatic Go to the next video, look at the comments. He doesn’t address it in the video, but viewers commented on how. Check it out.

[@birdman4274]

@@Fromatic If you're on a PC, make sure you have LEGACY setting for your mouse. That might be why you don't see the arrows.

[@Toyotale.]

you forgot to arm ground spoilers and autobrake

[@RealSimPilot]

That's what happens when we dont use our checklists!

[@rafaelyorro4466]

To connect autoland you select apilot?

[@RealSimPilot]

Both autopilots must be on

[@kaiarbenhansen1617]

Cant you print the metar data ? So its easy to se , right next to mdcu ? Or is that only in orginal ? Oooor do i dont have a clue of what im am talking about 🙈

[@RealSimPilot]

You can. But last time I did that I had a CTD during a long flight. I was so disappointed.

[@HoekNoot]

Hello I love to see your films on KZbin bud can you tel me how you get the weather on and visible I have try it but it don’t show in the cockpit

[@RealSimPilot]

The weather radar is currently inop for the development version. I think it's working on the stable version. You can turn it on via the weather panel on the pedestal.

[@rafaelyorro4466]

Confused Do you release Apilot before touchdown, is this autoland?

[@RealSimPilot]

Disconnect autopilot if not doing an autoland

[@thomastasler6296]

How come, that your weather radar is working? I thought this is not available in the current versions of the FBW A32NX.

[@jamiegrant7973]

Development or Stable build is being used. Experimental has those features presently INOP

[@thomastasler6296]

@@jamiegrant7973 ahhhh, thank you for that clarification

[@chiccoka]

Something Very buggy there 4sure it was so off from cl.

[@RealSimPilot]

Negative... it is designed like that. That specific approach has what is known as an offset localizer. It is noted on the approach chart.

How did you know what via to use

[@cincho822]

What does the * after LOC in the PFD mean?

[@birdman4274]

Great video! Is activating the Approach Phase in the Perf menu the same as hitting Appr button on the dash. I've never been sure about this.

[@RealSimPilot]

No. The approach phase will slow the aircraft down as you add flaps during the approach, provided you have inserted the destination data in the perf page for the approach. The approach button activates the autopilot to intercept the localizer and glideslope.

[@birdman4274]

@@RealSimPilot Thanks for the clarification. I have used both but at one point I thought they did the same thing and probably wondered why the speed wasn't lowering with flaps from the perf data. Did you ever do an RNav approach video. That would be awesome too. I like your style of teaching and picked up a lot on your Simbrief import video especially the W&B and wind component.

[@leejs3418]

Thank for your instrument. What is version?

[@RealSimPilot]

Latest experimental version.

[@leejs3418]

My experimental version is forced to end because unknown. Many Korean users and I'm experiencing a problem, but there's no way to solve it.

[@christofferlangendorf2212]

what is the website you use for the charts?

[@RealSimPilot]

Navigraph

[@christofferlangendorf2212]

Thanks
