[@joe131100]

What. A. VIDEO!!!!!!! Please please please we need more! Quality work mate

[@JackHansen1997]

Thank you! Much appreciated 😀 - I aim to upload as frequently as possible, although my routine at the moment doesn’t allow it too often due to the editing time, I’m certainly planning on a few more to come though!

This method of videos in the style of a trip report is amazing. I really enjoyed it. Keep up the amazing work. Gained a new subscriber!!

[@JackHansen1997]

Thank you very much! I enjoy watching trip reports from time to time irl, so I always enjoy trying to capture that feel in the sim. Glad you enjoyed it in any case 😀

[@rileyoldfield3503]

@@JackHansen1997 yeah mate, I love watching trip reports as well so it was really cool to see that format in the sim. Btw your SIM looks absolutely gorgeous. I'm super jealous. Do you use ortho? I've never been able to do it as I don't understand how it works 🤣

[@JackHansen1997]

@@rileyoldfield3503 thank you! Most of the scenery you see here (Menorca and the UK) is Orbx True Earth, so it’s basically just payware scenery I’ve downloaded and installed - it comes like this pretty much straight away at these settings. You can produce your own ortho scenery for free using Ortho4XP, the best thing if you want to do that is check out some tutorials - I’ve done a fair few areas on it and I’m not a big expert on mods/addons etc - once you’ve done a tile or two, it’s relatively simple. Just gotta follow the step by step instructions - and make sure you have enough hard drive space haha! Xenviro is also a big factor in my clouds and lighting, it hits fps hard, but I think it renders the environmental elements really nice.

Well modded! Good video

[@JackHansen1997]

Cheers pal!

[@trippelle7793]

I mean, that is just sooo perfect! A lot of work on that video! Beautiful flight! Beautiful scenery! Beautiful B738🤩

[@JackHansen1997]

Haha, thank you 🙏 This one took the longest so far, hopefully it won’t take me as long once I’ve done a few more though 🙂

[@jackbruin1197]

Wow , this is amazing?! What computer, mods, etc do you use? Wanting to start on x plane again but want to get it right so I can get max FPS for a perfect experience . Great video !

[@JackHansen1997]

@@jackbruin1197 Thank you! My full PC Specs are in the description, although in simple terms I run a 2070 super and Ryzen 3800X at 1440p. For mods, I generally record content with ortho photo scenery, whether that’s in freeware or payware packs (Orbx True Earth sceneries are great, but not the cheapest sadly!) but I find any sort of ortho scenery makes a big difference. For the lighting/ weather and atmospherics etc, I use Xenviro, this hits the fps hard due to the volumetric clouds, but I think the result is worth it. I normally get around 30fps, but without Xenviro easily double that, probably around 60-70fps if not more. If anything my advice is to tailor your X-Plane settings to your specs/budget of PC, and the gradually add things to your liking if you think it’s worth it. Personally I don’t mind a hit to fps, as long as it’s not dipping below 20 - then I start to get issues with replays not syncing etc. Hope this helps!

You do know there’s a turning point about a yard in front of you when you landed at Leeds that’s where aircrafts turn to back taxi off the runway irl

[@JackHansen1997]

Good catch! I notice from what I’ve seen on Flightradar24, (+ a few videos I’ve seen online) 737s often seem to back taxi turning on the runway itself as opposed to rolling out all the way to the end, but you are right in that they often do use the turning point at the end also 😊

[@marcberenguer5152]

Which Walter addon do you use?

[@steveyford7127]

Hi which is this jet2 model please? With the announcements, do you have a link? I have a few jet2 liveries but not this one. Ps I work at LBA

[@JackHansen1997]

Hi! Thank you for the interest, the livery is on the X-Plane.org site, under Zibo Liveries - check it out via this link: forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/files/file/52767-g-jzhk-jet2-holidays-sunburst-livery-for-zibo-737-800/ Regarding PA announcements, I wasn’t able to find any pre-recorded ones to embed in the sim, so these are just edited in afterwards using real-world audio clips, I added them in After Effects. Normally I try to get them in pre-packed formats so I can trigger them in the simulator, but I couldn’t find any for Jet2. Hope this helps!😊

[@Itreallywasnt]

love these types of vids keep up the good work :)

[@JackHansen1997]

Many thanks! They are a lot of fun. Just a shame I have less time to edit nowadays😅
