I used to fly but quite many years ago but just recently started going down the flight-sim trail which I am totally getting hooked too. Flying Xplane 11 and want to in days ahead want to get into including Live Vatsim. Thank you for sharing your knowledge experience wisdom and guidance!
Awesome! X-Plane 11 is a great flight simulation software now that most of the bugs are worked out of it. Navigraph is a great solution for navdata and charts!
@@MicahMesser since I know it is going to take a while for get navighraph I'll use chart fox instead the only problem is that I can't update my airac cycle for simbreif and the fmc.
Nice one, I do have a question however: why did you set the speed for that leg? It says that turbojets are subject to that limitation, while the 737 has turbofan engines.
hello Micah! i have two questions, And the first one is what does the flood light do? becouse i dont see a difference when turning that up? and the second is: can you fly with fmc out of date? and if you cant see the sid for example could you ask for vectors?
1. The flood light is a light usually used at night to see non-illuminated text and areas of the panels. I usually keep it pretty low. In the daytime you will not be able to see a difference. 2. You can fly with FMC out of date. If you do not have a SID or STAR just inform ATC "Delta 123, I am unable to fly the SID (or STAR) due to faulty FMC data, could I receive vectors?" Unless you are flying in an extremely busy event, the ATC will have no problem giving you vectors. You may also have an older version of the SID or STAR, if you do, inform ATC what you have available and they will be able to advise if that will work or you will have to use Radar Vectors. ATC is there to help, not throw you under the bus and run you over!
When i try to connect my x pilot to x plane it just doesn’t work. It says waiting for x plane connection but I’m already on x plane so what do i do? I just can’t click on the connect button until it connects to x plane but it just bugged or something that it thinks that x plane isn’t open or something.
Make sure in the setting of xPilot you have it pointed to the X-Plane 11 game directory. See this video to make sure it is installed correctly: th-cam.com/video/kW1bj4_mcxE/w-d-xo.html

Ready for my first VATSIM flight with Zibo. This video has been extremely helpful - thanks!!

You are welcome!
Thanks bro you helped me learn how to fly the zibo with all of your tutorial videos
That's awesome! It is the reason I started doing these flight simulation videos!
nice video, thanks for guiding us!!
You are most welcome!
I just got x-plane 11 from steam and now I'm waiting for navigraph

@@Unknwon__now correct. You have to use the given AIRAC
Great video. I am just started to investigate VATSIM. I was surprised to not hear any ATC chatter. Is that not part of VATSIM?
It is, but you have to be at an airport or in a sector that has someone online as ATC.
Nice.
Thanks!
nice i found you here too, aren't you in SVA?
Im also started to investigate VATSIM. One question...what checklist app do you have?
XChecklist
Such a good video, thank you! I do have a question, with your checklist how did you get it to automatically tick the boxes when you do something?
It is through xChecklist. It should automatically do it.
@@MicahMesser That's odd, mine doesn't seem to tick them automaticity for the Zibo.
Thank You..... This was a very helpful tutorial.... Which Zibo version are you using in this video???
It was the most up-to-date version, I used the updater right before the video.
@@MicahMesser OK.... Just curious because it seemed quite stable.... I havent updated mine for a few weeks.. Thanks...
Nice one, I do have a question however: why did you set the speed for that leg? It says that turbojets are subject to that limitation, while the 737 has turbofan engines.
Yes, they have Turbofans but when it references turbojets it means all jet aircraft. It's old language.
@@MicahMesser Thanks for the clarification

@@MicahMesser thanks it worked😁
58:02 how did you know the trim? Is there any trim indicator?
First the FMC shows the trim, the wheel moves the mechanical trim and has a white line indicator to the right of the wheel that moves.
@@MicahMesser Ooh Thank you again you helped me again bro (from cold and dark to this)
