- In this video, I fly the Boeing 777-200ER out of London, Heathrow and make a 11 hour journey across the globe to San Diego, California on a beautiful approach. This was one of the real world flights that became interrupted by a certain global phenomena, but has recently comeback and is making this flight more regularly. What you hear in this video is a sound mod by FTsim mixed with real life sounds and recordings. Enjoy!
Thank you to Skylite Productions! I use a lot of the sounds from there and where a lot of real and authentic content is created on various aircraft and airlines. / sla31

This takes me back to my days as a pilot! All I need now is to hear simulated cabin crew shouting "how did you get in here?!" And I'm all set.
Underrated comment!
W…wait a minute….
Are you retired from flying nowadays?
Hahaha! Wait..
@@series25a Oh you 🤣
Imagine seeing this as a kid in 1988 when flight sims consisted of a few colors and blocky shapes moving at 6 frames per second.
Love that :)
Imagine seeing this after playing Pac-Man on the Atari 2600.
I had F-18 interceptor for the Amiga. I was so excited a game finally where you could land a plane 😂 how far it’s come ❤️
@@bobbobby3318 That was a marvel for 1986, and far ahead of anything offered on an IBM/clone. The 1MB version even had a few additional special features.
flight path 737 on the c64🤣
I've flown on business flights out of LHR going back 35 years more times than I can count. That is an astonishing replication that it feels like the real thing. I also automatically pressed myself back in my seat as the pilots committed to take-off.
36:47 The wing bends upwards due to weight of the plane being lifted & becomes straight again when the weight transfers to the wheels upon landing.
The game shows this phenomenon. Crazy!
I was watching for that too on landing. I wasn't disappointed, lol.
It's actually because of the force of landing, and activation of the spoilers. If you see a planes wings on takeoff roll they begin to lift up at sufficient speed, regardless of being on the ground (weight on the wheels)
Yes, when the plane is in the air, the fuselage is "hanging" on the wings, when the plane is on the ground, the wings are hanging from the fuselage.
@@Taydrumyeah around v2 when it starts to gain lift & becomes light on the ground & the plane stars to slide around on the runway, that's when the bend starts
Phenomenon*
I can't believe how far virtual reality has come in such a short time. I grew up playing Flight Simulator on an Apple 2 on a green / black display. The airplane was a single pixel on the screen and the "earth" was represented by a checkerboard square pattern to create the illusion of altitude. The airspeed, altitude, and angle were displayed at the top in text. This was enough to entertain us back in the 1980s (along with imagination).
These days, my imagination plays no part of the simulation. We are basically on the verge of making games indistinguishable from reality. I would say that this video is on the threshold. Thanks for sharing!
There's a game called Driveclub, I recommend you checking out some of its gameplay, and this was a 2014 driving/racing game.. literally 8 years ago today it achieved this level of graphics which to today standards the next gen games struggle to match..
[th-cam.com/video/12Y3Fuivc7E/w-d-xo.html - Ultra HD Norway gameplay]
absolutely incredible how amazing some 'games' / simulations can graphically achieve these years, there are serious efforts to achieve realistic simulation - this decade has been crazy
audio is incredible... when i close my eyes, feels like im really in a plane traveling somewhere... trips me out
I flew the 777 for BA for ten years, and apart from the very long runway occupancy at LHR and no-autothrottle takeoff, it's hard to imagine any home flight sim being more realistic than this. The audio is especially impressive, apart from all the redundant GPWS callouts on approach, we don't have so many!
The physics are hortible
The sounds are actually taken from TH-cam videos.
@@eeriknieminen6627 Your grammar is horrible
I was really into flight simulators ten years ago. It was always a constant battle with rendering options and throwing more and more money into my computer to handle the graphics and reflecting on it, the graphics were garbage compared to this. How far we've come. Thanks for sharing.
So relatable!
That’s why I like flying on the Xbox. Cheap hardware and nice performance.
@@ghostviggen my friend, that option was out of the equation ten years ago. Happy flying.
@@ghostviggen not much cheaper for the performance. Right now yes a bit, because of high gpu prices from cryptomining, but usually pc is cheaper and even now not much more
@@user-wq9mw2xz3j It’s basically half the price for the GPU alone to buy a Series X. I’m very happy with its performance.
That approach was insanely realistic🔥
Indeed it is 👏👏
Bruh that shit was crazy lol
Ikr
This San Diegan agrees the time of day the look of the skyline is close to perfection.
facts
When you flew into San Diego, I loved that you can actually make out the rappelling tower and a USMC welcome sign on the right.
When I was there in 1989, I used to watch those planes take off, wishing I was on them and not being yelled at by my DIs.
29:10 - While almost every static shot was postcard-quality, this one in particular truly stood out as a potential photograph.
Thank you for including the wing views of the flaps & slats extending!!!! It (along with the audio) really added to the realism. Beautiful video
So realistic ! I can almost smell the kerosene and the "perfume" in the plane. And with the sound of the passengers, so many flashbacks from my vacations in Vancouver...
This "game", with the machine and the good GPU behind, this is The flight simulator I wanted to have 30 years ago. What a journey since FS5. Thank you for sharing.
Incredible production, and amazing flying as well. Im just in love.
Don't know why I found it so damn funny, but 35:55 watching that car drive off the overpass to it's certain demise was hilarious.
XD
Love watching the wings load and unload on take-off/landing! Amazing footage.
Being a passenger is such a stress-free experience
Right but your are missing out a whole lot of different experience as pilot
But you will never be paid to be passenger :D
I live near KSAN and could see my house! 😂
Hard to tell what's real and not these days but great animation.
British Airways has been using a 787 since restarting this route after the covid shutdown which is s great move considering economy for a route that likely isn't very profitable - replacing a daily 747 which flew this route before the Covid shutdown for year plus at most that had replaced a daily 777.
I've flown this BA KSAN/LHR/KSAN route on 777's and occasionally will tune into SoCal ATC around landing time between 4 & 5pm to hear the word Speedbird and watch it fly overhead. Enjoyed listening to the huge 777 trents as they ripped the air. 747 was more a traditional 4 engine old school scream with accompanying low rumble of all that air displacement, the 787 is very quiet and sleek.
You have become master of flight simulation . The way you made cinematic one from check in to deboading , gate to gate is commendable . Superb bro . Didn't realise how 40 minutes passed . ❤️❤️
Always love the approach into San Diego! Stunning video!
The approach and landing looks crazy! I need to try that :)
Having the triple 7 fly over you while in traffic on the 5 at sunset is an amazing experience
Been there done that 🤜🏽
Having one zoom over your house is awesome
Love the floating cone as you enter the gate at the end!
That is an absolutely phenomenal video. As real as it gets!
Loved the ultra-real traffic crossing the freeway (35:38) and the floating pylon (39:00).
stranger things have happened in san diego
There are moments while watching this when the camera points out from the cockpit and I'm like "yeah I'm aware this is from a game but this is actually real life". It's just so realistic. My brain is getting conflicted.
I would suggest this isn't a "Game" but a "Flight Simulator". In "games" there is usually some sort of points/levels/achievements as incentives to the "players" or competitors. Simulators on the other hand, are primarily purposed for giving the user a "simulated experience", usually either flight or driving.
@@N34RT Well...you are not completely wrong. But that's exactly the problem i'm having with MSFS. There are "gaming-components" that attract gamers, because you have races and can get points. Thats why it is so popular. As a "hardcore simmer" since over 3 decades i must say that i have been very disappointed by MSFS. Last flight with the C172 and trying to tune a VOR frequency...it didn't work! Even basic things like that are missing and that is a shame. The devs put way too much energy in making it a game with races etc. and eye-goodies. But they forgot the simulator-part. And i've heard many pilots complaining about that too. For example the shape of the aircraft in MSFS doesn't impact the flightmodel, as it should in real life. So for me MSFS is still not really there yet although it has potential. I think that most of the "hardcore simmers" still use mostly XP/P3D and not MSFS. On the other side XBox gamers cannot understand why people have fun using XP...because simply they don't understand the purpose of a sim ;-) Just my 2 cents.
@@frankbyte yes, that was going to be my recommendation, X-Plane is a much better "simulator", though the graphics aren't quite as good (some say).
The rotating light of the tow is showing on top of the front wheels. Nice and real
The ambient noise and background chatter makes this feel so authentic. Bravo
The graphics are so good and game experience with working buttons are so realistic I thought you were flying a plane!
That hovering cone at San Diego, pretty dope!
Reminds me of a flight I took from London to lax with British airways back in 2012! Good memories, thanks for these awesome videos 🙏🏼
Omg… I have these memories on my flight from Munich to Abu Dhabi. That engine start up was just soooo amazing!
The realism of MSFS is just stunning! Excellent piloting too 👍
You say realistic but there's only one hitch. G-YMMR is Trent 800 powered. The engines shown are GE90-94B but with a RR logo plastered on the side. One of my biggest bugs that the developers get you to buy a product which in a way lies about what it has to offer
Wow! The game play is GORGEOUS! I remember the first flight sim game I played in my late teens and now that I'm 54 years old, I'm so happy that I've lived to see a truly photo realistic flight simulator game that can be played on a home computer. I'm definitely going to get this for my birthday this year. Thanks so much for sharing this video! "Keep looking up!" :)
Don't wait, buy it now. You won't regret it.
@@beesmongeese2978 I'm worried my computer won't have the rendering power to play the game. So I'm saving up to buy a much better computer. :)
@@JamesAlburyTheSkyAboveUs Wishing you luck
AWESOME. Took this flight a few years ago and was a bit alarmed on approach over Balboa Park!
As a BA geek, I LOVE THIS, so much detail right down to Flower Duet as the boarding music, and the VERY ENGLISH pronunciation of British Airways!
This is extremely impressive, keep up the great work.
Thank you very much! :)
I was wondering ms made such a superb realistic clouds.
15:25 the best engine sound I've ever heard
A beautiful and outstanding video! I hope you will keep the work up.
Nice! I love the floating cone near the arrival gate in SAN...as real as it gets unless it's an accessory!
Absolutely amazing, could watch this all day! I was spellbound from start to finish, the tea went cold and the cat really enjoyed the landing for some strange reason!! Would love to see more flights, it’s an easy way to get a travel fix without going anywhere.😁(My dad, brother and nephew - all pilots)
Maybe your cat wants to fly planes too Julia... Lol!
Movement?
I loved every moment of this
What an incredible video! I love this sim so much!
I have siming sice FS 5.1, but this.. Pure Gold, can't be much better than this. Thanks for this one, nice video and landing. Reg from Sweden.
This is not a game its a sim and it is awesome can't stop playing on my xboxseries s nothing else comes close to this there is no end to this awesome will never get tired of this
“Downtown London”? Never heard of such a place! Lol! I actually saw this fly over my house!
I've been playing MSFS since 1995. It's unreal how far the graphics have come
Thank you! I’ve been on this same flight a few times, although not yet on a 777. I don’t do flight simulators at all, and saw the last one maybe 20 years ago. This blew my mind. Only at the end did I lose the reality sense which the airport lounge, but I give the game props for having the proper lounge location. It was fun!
It is not a game, 4K and ULTRA looks REALISTIC! 💪🏻🤩
How do U get the passenger view
@@lucakramer-smith9443 the Boeing 777 is a mod which includes the passenger area. The free ones like a320 and 747 don't have the rendered passenger area
Is a game is microsof flight simulator 2020
Sure it's a game - rather than reality. Can tell by the jerkiness in the framerate. lol - even on this high-end system. It's not yet accurate enough to really be considered a serious simulator. Having said that though, the graphics are very impressive. Just a shame it doesn't support multiple monitors, for a truly immersive simulation. It's only muliple monitor
"support" is through nvidia surround or AMD equivalent, and that really distorts the sides.
Wow. I haven’t seen FS in a while. The last FS I played a lot was FS2000. The ATC chatter and the crew announcements are great. Graphics are realistic but still lacking something. An improvement for the next FS would be to show rising heat from the runway and engine exhaust, especially during the landing. Also would be cool to have passengers in the plane and show crowds of people in the airport.
My god, thats insane. Thank you for sharing :)
Amazing and beautiful flight! ❤️✈️
great video✈
This is just outstanding. I’m new to FS - i assume this BA 777 model is an add on as I’ve not seen it in any MS promotional videos (and it would have been!). Loving the detail….
The 777 is a Captain Sim add-on. Terrible company, great plane graphics! Take a look at my latest vid for cinematic flight!
@@ChrisBilodeauPhotography thx so much - will do!
Really excellent to watch . Incredible detail 👌 👏
This was amazing to watch, thank you.
What's really impressive is how you were able to fly that captain sim 777 for 11 hours without the sim crashing lol. Nice work though
yes good i never could finish a flight from paris to tokyo yet too and i did deleted it later, its absolute shit
At times, it was hard to tell the difference between real and this. Actually, at one time I thought this had to have been taken with a camera, there is no way this is computer generated. Amazing guys! I enjoyed the whole flight. Was waiting for some pretty stewardess to offer me a light wine and dinner.
Credit where credit is due that was a bloody cracking video! You definitely do MSFS justice 👌
I agree! I would love for you to check out my latest video. Cinematic flight.
Wow , so authentic, I salute you Major !
I played one of these a few years ago, I managed to take off in a 737 and I am sure my passengers had the most wonderful time, what with all the screaming and crying as we all hurtled into the ground shortly after. As a passenger I am glad the bar for entry to being a pilot is ridiculous.
Love how the wings flex! It looks amazing!
Crazy specs man, frames look nice.
Even after reading the description still can't believe it is a game!!
Imagine what this will be like twenty years from now, or fifty.
Only so far real you can get mind.
it would be slightly better than this
You absolutely nailed that landing. As a long time simmer myself since Fs2002 I understand it is a bit more awkward trying to land in msfs2020 the physics are slightly different to older flightsims. I will make the switch once I have the bought a more than capable PC to run the add-ons as well including Vatsim. 10/10 for this video and editing skills
omg this is the most realistic flight sim video on the internet!!!
if you keep doing this you will be famous!!! lots of succses
I haven't been on a plane since March 2019 -- going on a trip in a couple months and watching this makes me so excited!
Flying to MSP from ARN next week! First flight since 2018. Hope you'll have a nice trip.
@@aq3121 how was it
This sim just blows all the others out of the water! 😳
Depends what you are looking for in a Sim. In terms of graphics, yes, MSFS 2020 is the best. But it's lacking compared to other sims in other areas. For instance multiple monitor support. Also you need a hefty system to get decent framerates compared to, for example, x plane 11. Also the flight modelling is not done as well as in other sims, although they are improving it gradually.
This is just scary! Having flown this aircraft type for 6 years (including MMR) and done the San Diego route many times it is quite disturbing how accurate this is.
Incredible!!! Great production! I remember when I started simming with Microsoft back in 1984... Lol!
I actually flew on this route twice IRL before in 2013 and 2018. I went to the US last June and I couldn't find the route anymore. I had to go all the way to Frankfurt to SFO then to SAN.
Very very nice vid mate....and....I get a bit angry when people call this "a game". (something dies inside me...lol)
Agreed. I think it’s a game when you want to be a game, and a sim when you want it to be a sim :)
@@MajorTom. True. If I want to call my Pacman a sim...it's a sim :))))
i am sorry to burst your little ego bubble but this is nothing but a game. The simulator is fine, the pilot is the one who decides if it is a game or not
Amazing video, just a quick question, what Addons do you use for traffic
In the description ;)
More videos please these are fantastic! Very enjoyable
You are the best TH-camr your videos are so amazing and you just earned a sub
15:53 Interesting that they've got another plane doing a low pass over the airport, right towards the runway where a jet is taking off. Must be 2:22 in the afternoon.
It was 2:11 (or 14:11) so yeah
Hey buddy... I have to say you've done a great job.... 👍 I was always wondering how you guys can get a such of quality like yours ? Amazing....
First could you just tell me how do you do or what is your camera setting to be able to go around like that 🤔. And finally the quality in 4k .I actually have a pretty good pc 🖥. A 49 " ultra wide screen of samsung for the pc it's also a nice beast I guess Nvidia RTX 2080 Ti
Intel core is 9900KF CPU
3.60 Ghz
64 go of ram
My resolution is 5120×1440
Once again thanks for all these videos they're just superbe.
Thank you! The camera setting is just me using the drone camera and moving it around to get certain shots. In the description, you will see a link to the settings I use in msfs :)
Jesus christ, overachieve much? the fuck do you need a 49inch screen for....
@@LegalLowGround lol
Impressive video. Congratulations !
Awesome video you do a real good job
Considering a certain global phenomena this is the only way to fly now
*phenomenon
msfs graphics are crazy. Do you use any mods for the 777? amazing production
Yes. A sound mod by ftsim and the salty 747 compatibility mod
Technology is amazing now. Great video (and PC spec)! My brother gets to do this for real. In all variations of the BA 777 fleet. 😁
Took this flight in 2013. Also a 777-200ER. Love that aircraft.
its a nice plane
If you can master this game you can be the passenger that lands the plane when pilots are dead. no problemo
You should definitely be paid by BA for the advertisement. Long hauls in this sim will be epic after the high fidelity 3rd parties make their way in.
Grandioso trabajo Mayor.Un abrazo desde España.
Just amazing! Congratulation !
I don't think that any of the professional simulators that I saw (with cabine, and actual cockpit) comes even close when it comes to that level of (virtual) graphics.
If you mean the full flight simulators meant for pilot training, they don’t. Their purpose is to train on the instruments and similar things, no one cares about visual realism
@@benjaminp2405 But for simulators that costs up to a million dollars, I think it's kind of a shame to not add some of that good visual graphics along with a 2 thousand dollar GPU lol.
Next ones will also have this Level of Detail... When the Tech is aviable for Home Computers. Also the next Generation of simulators will use them. In the past it was the other way around. I saw a Simulator around The year 2000 that used 12-24 3dfx graphic cards to Run the Sims 20 years ago. ;-)
it was sick and i like the videos hat you make thankyou😉😉😉
Absolutely beautiful landing
I absolutely love simulation games. No much action, just vibing and enjoying the beauty and realism.
Great video. Better than most. Beautiful sim.
Tips;
-Turn on autothrottles on preflight. Sets TO thrust. FMA switches to HOLD at 80KIAS and will capture V2 for engine failure.
-Display switch should be on MFD or NAV
-Clear the Master Caution before push
-Set V2 in the window
-Arm LNAV and VNAV
-Clear recalls before start
-Display engines on lower ctr for auto start. System doesn't monitor oil pressure.
-Learn the VNAV, it works amazing. V/S is lazy and unprofessional.
-You probably have approach charts by now, set your minimums including Vref and landing flaps
-Those lights should have been set through 18k or 10k depending on Co procedure. Not short final. 😂
-Arm the speed brake. It goes "gear down, flaps 20" and arm the speed brake. Otherwise they won't deploy on landing.
-Autothrottles can stay on for landing if you choose. It is most often.
-The autobrakes go to Disarm with manual brakes or retraction of the speed brakes. This sim isn't accurate if the switch goes to OFF. That's a manual function for the knucklehead sitting next to you.
-Configuration changes are made after exiting the runway.
Don't let the 737 sim guys tell you how to fly the triple. This is an old man's airplane by design.
Again, best video I've seen. Nice work.
Plain spotting flight simulator. Those clouds are just incredible Wowie.
Im not really into flight sims but I thoroughly enjoyed this. Thank you
The CYYZ ATC chatter is a nice touch ;)
The approach to beautiful San Diego is one of the best you’ll ever experience.
The level of realistic blows my mind.
A amazing video just subbed
Amazing. Mesmerising.
