- In this first of a planned series of videos, we focus on a general overview of how Navigraph can aid general aviation pilots plan their flights with precision. The focus of this episode is VFR with coverage of IFR in a future video.

As a real world Private Pilot, this is a great way for folks to learn all about VFR flight rules and flight plans (Im in USA)
I've been simming for 25 years now, I do it because I'm passionate about Aviation. I use it for fun and to help with my flight training, currently using it for my IFR rating. Flight Sim definitely helped me out a whole bunch in real world flying. Love it. Thank you for your videos and support in the community.
Good luck with your instrument rating 😊
@@SimHangerFS Thank you!
Which sim equipment do you use ?
@@interestingvideos4046 MSFS2020, Saitek Multipanel/Radio Panel/Switch Panel. Saitek Rudder pedals and Yoke. Throttle Quadrant. The Knobster.
Brilliant I.just switched back to GA and forgot how satisfying it is especially in VR. This will be a great refresher many thanks
Great stuff mark ... Very interesting and informative...looking forward to this series 😊👍
what a wonderful hobby, love it !!
nice video Mark as a pilot in Canada since 1971 its sometimes nice to have reminders now and then. Looking forward to the next in the series.
Thanks for watching
Your videos are far out the best for all Simaviators. Thank you for your work. Since 1982 with flightsim and since then also working in aviation since today.
Well done Mark. Love your videos and your teaching spirit. Keep up the great effort!
I've always wanted to be a pilot and I usually fly the deHaviland Beaver with amphibias loats eh! Always enjoy your videos and info.Stay well Mark 👍
Love the Beaver with floats!
And there is now 'Say intensions' and 'Beyond ATC' to add even more immersion. A great time to be siming
I used to fly GA planes, Bonanza with V-tail, C182rg, Cessna 310, all the types they had at the flying school. A very good friend of mine had a part-ownership of the Bonanza and as my job got me to fly to the USA once a quarter we shared many great flights. Now he has moved from San Jose to Hawaii and his health does not allow him to fly a real plane anymore. I am pensioned now and do not have the economics to continue flying real planes. We together decided to fly using MSFS2020, he in Hawaii and me in the south of Germany. The focus of flying with MSFS2020 is to have an immersive feel and to refresh my ATC knowledge and praxis. So a three-monitor setup, a Brunner yoke, and the Thrustmaster TRP pedals are meant to get as close as achievable to get the real feel. Now ATC and proper flight planning and chart tools will hopefully immerse me into flying and develop skills I was lacking.
Awesome video and will be following the vfr series. Would be great with beyondatc when they implement vfr.
Excellent video on navigation. Slainte, Mark ❤
Although it doesn't have charts, you can also make the same kind of flight plans directly in the World Map, as you see both the map and the different airports, navaids etc there.
Very nice! Quick tip: if you click and drag on the route line you can drag it to whichever point you want. A bit quicker than having to select a point and defining before or after. This will also snap the line to nearby points of interests. This is very similar to how Skyvector does it.
The current version of the sim is the first one that I have actually attempted to learn proper procedures (and fly airliners). Been flying virtually since subLOGIC Flight Simulator II on a Commodore 64 and always just flew around randomly. Of course the current sim makes GA flying amazing and most of my flying is still GA. I do use Navigraph/Simbrief for nearly all my flights though. Crazy how we have nearly every possible chart available to us for a minimal cost.
Great video! Like many older flightsimmers, I can no longer afford the expense of real GA flying (or a very likely fail on my medical!) so flightsimming, especially in MSFS, is a very acceptable substitute. It's also great for keeping one's flying skills sharp, particularly navigation which Navigraph does well. I just hope that the recent AI programs for ATC comms become equally 'as good as it gets' as real world flying!
Another great and informative video Mark
Very informative as always Mark. Keep up the good work.
excellent video , very informative
Totally agree. My sims became way more satisfying as an “accomplishment” once i applied all the GA PPL flight planning - fuel reqd, time of day, route planning, altitude, TOC/TOD, diversion airports, weather, etc. 👍 (I tend to use Foreflight.)
Nice
Sub'd
I find it interesting that you say you prefer Navigraph for flight planning VFR flights. I love Navigraph and use it daily for IFR flights, but unless I'm missing something it is incredibly lacking in even the most basic VFR flight tools. Let's say I want to plan a flight using VOR's. Nearly every VFR flight planner will let me draw out a ruler to determine distance and bearing to/from a VOR. Can't find anything like that in Navigraph. Most tools will spit out a flight plan including frequencies, radials, and distances so you have it in one spot. Again I can't find anything like that in Navigraph.
If all I want to do is fly fix to fix, sure Navigraph does that really well, but that's basically IFR at that point.
The first part of the video is recorded in mono. Stereo all the way please Mark!
Found this video very Informative thank you. oh simbreif and Navigraph is it possible to use the free editions for these applications ??
SimBrief is free to all. Navigraph is payware only.
@@SimHangerFS ahh right
The 10 dollars USD per month is well worth it
24:47 ....🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺👍😁😁😁
The problem I found with this method is that if you select a parking spot istead of spawning directly on the runway, it messes um the departure procedures... Never being able to fix that...
Hi Mark
Is there a way to load flight plans created in the Navigraph app to an Xbox?
Only via pc and then save to Xbox cloud storage
Mark, can you import .pln files from MSFS into Navigraph
Yes you can.
Audio is left ear only fyi I think.
Yes, just the intro though. My error.
Sadly navigraph doesnt jace but a few GA stats in the data base. They really need to fix this.
