Great Video! If I may offer a bit of advice coming from a real pilot, your rotations seem to be late, its hard to tell from a 2D screen, but once you hit VR you should be lifting the nose wheel off the ground, continue to let the speed build and the airplane will simply fly itself off the ground. In this scenario it seemed to be a short runway making this vital as it looked like you could have clipped the runway lights with your gear! Other than that, it is impressive the amount of time you have put into this, to learn all of the command, and control functions of a complex aircraft such as this!
+sam farley I wouldn't say that, complex aircraft are meant to be flown with a captain and and a first officer so it's easy to miss something when you have lots of other stuff to do and no co-pilot to relieve you of some of your tasks. Pilots are people, and people make mistakes, that is why we have checklists and an additional pilot.
sam farley I was commenting on his ability as a an amateur. At the end of the day unless you're a pilot I don't think anyone is in any position to judge
+sam farley Yes, I agree there were reckless mistakes made, but at the end of the day this is a game, and he doesn't have thousands of hours of multi-crew, complex, multi-turbine time. I wish you luck in your goals to be a RAF pilot, but as said above you can't really judge someone about real flying unless you have been in the left seat yourself, and experienced what it's like to be PIC of an aircraft, and all of the responsibilities that come with it.
+sam farley Sam, as an experienced aviator you should encourage people, offer help and constructive advice. Imagine if you join the RAF and your instructors simply criticise your mistakes rather than tutoring and guiding you through them. None of us are born with the skills to fly aircraft, we learn them, and the only way to learn anything in life is to make mistakes. I've come a long way in 12 months and perhaps in 12 months more I'll be making fewer mistakes. Peace.
Paul, the UK transition altitude isn't 10000ft. Most UK airports are 6000 with a few exceptions like manchester which is 5000. The aerosoft airbus has the correct transition for departure set on the PERF page of the MCDU, and you can check it by looking at the SID chart.
You know squirrel we live in a world where people never praise the lot of work you do right or put into, but they always criticise only one mistake you make. Well done you
Hey Paul, love the flight sim vids! It allows me to experience these kind of high quality sim experiences without the very (I believe) prohibitively expensive amount of content you would need to get before it visually looks as great as this. Also, I didn't notice until I started watching Bob Ross painting videos that you (more or less) do the same sign off as he did. Thanks for introducing me to Bob as well, nothing quite beats the stress relieving qualities his videos have on me after a hard day at work. :)
I would love a tutorial, on what you look at on the PFPX printsheet, and enter in the FMC. I have figured out most of it. But I am trying to write my own kind of checklist, from cold and dark, all the way to landing. So I can actually fly a plane from start to end, without having to Alt-Tab to look for tutorials, or videos to remind me what I need to do. So a full flight from cold and dark. The tutorial part doesnt have to be long. I usually watch a video, and put in the info on the go. So I am prepared when I take on flying and dont end up with an error i realize on takeoff, and have to abort, and look into it again. Other than that, i really love your P3D videos, and happy to see them back on the menu!
Little bit of advice coming from an Airbus pilot you don't arm the auto throttle when you push the thrust levers up to clime thrust it comes on automatically then push it up flex or toga and it will stay on till the thrust leavers are back down at idle or you disconnect it
Stunning Glasgow aye, cheers for the video man, I've upgraded the Scottish scenery to its very top, with some of your help and flights. Running it fairly smoothly (Wee stutters a few places) outside the Glaswegian scenery, not really sure why.
Nice video Paul. Just for info, APU Bleed is for air supply, for instance for supplying air conditioning and, more importantly, for starting the engines.
Excellent video, good to see one of my local airports and rendered so well too. As for requests, how about Glasgow to Barra, though you would have to use a turbo prop and the runway at Barra is the beach. This is the only scheduled flight anywhere that is controlled by the tides. You would have to fly over some amazing scenery on the way.
Thank you Capt'n for the wonderful flight maybe one day we'll see you down under specially Western Australia that was very interesting game the amount of stuff you have to remember to key in
Your videos are just amazing sir.....i started watching ur videos a wk back on eurotruck sim and let me tell u that ur videos had that quality which i liked instantly and i subscribed to ur channel day one after just the first video...since then ive been a regular follower of ur videos....ur doing great with sim games...keep it up and thank you!!!!
Suggestion: For those of us who are keen t get into this sim...would you do an in depth video of where to get it...how much....set up...where to get the charts and airport layouts (taxi ways radio freq's)
Hey Paul. Flight idea here. Looked up some information on EasyJet LGW (Britain, London Gatwick) to HER (Crete, Heraklion) 16:45 Departure > 22:45 Arrival = Estimated flight time: 6 hours. I believe as you will departure in the afternoon, and arrive at night, you might just get some amazing content. Hope you have LGW & HER installed, it would be a blast.
lol that is actually very impressively accurate of glasgow, however some minor errors i saw like gate locations and that an air france was on the wrong pier XD
Well Paul, i enjoy and appreciate your vids, but you have blown me away with your knowledge of aviation, i,m very impressed, and i see you got good comments from a pilot, well done .
Transition altitude is at 6000 feet for Bristol and you are meant to switch from the local barometric pressure to standard pressure and then at 10,000 you switch lights off. But other than that it was an amazing flight
Really nice flight that sunset was georgous you´re really getting better and better:D here´s some advice to master the airbus: The company route didn´t completely "work" because usually the runway and the sid is provided by atc therefore it shouldn´t be in the company route. The apu bleed is just needed for engine start as it spins the fan before fuel injection it has nothing todo with power generating (the bleeds also provide air for the airconditioning). Normally a pilot uses the turnoffs during all landings and takeoffs and never switch off your TCAS/transponder as long as you are airborn. If you struggle with the safe flap speeds there is a yellow double line marker on the speedometer that indicates the max speed for the next stage of flaps. I hope I could help a bit and would really enjoy a flight from/to austria;)
Nice vid. I want to see Málaga in your video because it's one of the few airports I have actually seen, and I want to see how much the game resembles my memories of the place.
I like the video very much. When i wore headphones it sounded like i was actually in the plane. Thats also a reason i liked this video. I have already subed to you i always watch your OMSI 2 videos. Please make another one soon!!!!!
I must say a smooth landing enjoyed this video and find it a help as just starting to get ready to learn to fly the passenger jets. Will be checking out your other videos Squirrel ✈️👮
How about a flight from Edinburgh to Farnborough (EGPH - EGLF)? Be great to see the approach to my local airport on the game! Must be the approach onto runway 24 at EGLF too...
i love your videos i am new to your channel the first video i saw on your channel was euro truck simulator as soon as i saw it i subscribed keep up the good work ''
I dont normally play plane sim games but after watchin you play one on youtube im looking into now plus other sim games. I am a newbie here so I dont know if you have done Bristol to Palma yet. I fly to palma alot and so it would be interested to see the difference between a sim and real life flight!
1- What was that sound in 13:40? 2- And what does Flex mean? (on takeoff after you put the auto throttle) 3- Does the aircraft change automatically from flex to climb? Or do you have to do it? 4- Did you continue to climb at 6000 feet? 5- What is transition altitude? 6- On 22:43 was that rain? 7- What did you do in 29:44? What was the button that you had before changing it? What was the button that you changed to? And why did you do that? Sorry for so many questions, but I'm really dying to know. Nice video!! Sincerely Mauro
Transition altitude is where you press the barometer and it automatically to "STD - standart - 1013 hPa" and when you are approaching and you are at this altitude, you press it again and it sets to the QNH which you can find on ATIS of your arrival (or departure of course) airport.

That was the closest takeoff I've ever seen in a flight simulator.
Please, fly from Valencia to Madrid. It's a short flight with beautiful views.

Matthew Richardson You know x plane 10 yeah do you have to buy the planes?
gamer sami yes but there are some default planes
You know squirrel we live in a world where people never praise the lot of work you do right or put into, but they always criticise only one mistake you make. Well done you
Lighting on that landing is amazing
The sound of the engines when you turn them to 100% throttle is so awesome!
Can't get enough of these P3D videos Paul! The channel needs more haha!!

Final pre flight checks @ 15:15, thank you for choosing easy jet and have a pleasant flight and arrival
Beautiful dusk landing! I enjoyed this video
a trip across the Atlantic to Nova Scotia in winter would be more than interesting
Jeez that was a close takeoff!
Thanks really enjoyed watching . All the best
What a landing, you were bang on, on the glide slope!
That's what you call graphics! Clouds looked amazing!
GREAT VIDEO SQUIRREL
I like at 15:35 how you use the mouse to just instinctively wave at the ground controller. That's the sign of an immersive simulation.
I would love a tutorial, on what you look at on the PFPX printsheet, and enter in the FMC. I have figured out most of it.

+Squirrel EZY cost index is 12 for the a320 family. Just for future reference! Looks like a great vid so far!
amazing graphics ur computer must be amazing
also love ur vids squirrrel
Paul, the Transition Level in the UK is 6000ft. It is not the altitude where you retract the landing lights either
I love these flights!!! My only request is for you to please show the full shutdown of the plane if you can.
Little bit of advice coming from an Airbus pilot you don't arm the auto throttle when you push the thrust levers up to clime thrust it comes on automatically then push it up flex or toga and it will stay on till the thrust leavers are back down at idle or you disconnect it
Yeah Glasgow is a gnarly approach even on the best of days! My home airport! Cool video :)
Hi Mr S, this is my ‘Milk Run’ route, good scenery, but not too heavy on FPS. Neat video of the trip.
very smooth landing Squirrel! Excellent! and nice vid.
Great vid, thanks for taking the time.
Just an amazing video .........start to finish good job well done .love flying as a pax and as a avid enthusiast ....

great video, very relaxing. It was great seeing you at Insomnia btw!
welcome to glasgow. flying over the campsies lovely.
Can't tell if it looks real does it lol I live here go by here all time
Thank you Capt'n for the wonderful flight maybe one day we'll see you down under specially Western Australia that was very interesting game the amount of stuff you have to remember to key in

Awesome landing
wow the graphics of glasgow are incredible when coming in to land!
Suggestion: For those of us who are keen t get into this sim...would you do an in depth video of where to get it...how much....set up...where to get the charts and airport layouts (taxi ways radio freq's)
Hey Paul. Flight idea here.

LGW (Britain, London Gatwick) to HER (Crete, Heraklion)

I'm from Bristol and my uncle lives in Glasgow
Well done squirrel another amazing video keep it up
That landing was butter xD
lol that is actually very impressively accurate of glasgow, however some minor errors i saw like gate locations and that an air france was on the wrong pier XD
graphics look amazing! great video!
Awesome flight loved it!!! And the scenery was awesome!!!
You wouldn't think that a game that came out in 2006 could be upgraded to look this good.
Not really. P3D upgraded to DX10 and some other things on top of FSX which is indeed quite outdated nowadays.
thank you for making these videos you made me not be afraid of flying;).
Well Paul, i enjoy and appreciate your vids, but you have blown me away with your knowledge of aviation, i,m very impressed, and i see you got good comments from a pilot, well done .
That was a fast take off.
Transition altitude is at 6000 feet for Bristol and you are meant to switch from the local barometric pressure to standard pressure and then at 10,000 you switch lights off. But other than that it was an amazing flight
Good flying

i love these p3d vids
Perfect landing! *thumbs up*
Nice vid. I want to see Málaga in your video because it's one of the few airports I have actually seen, and I want to see how much the game resembles my memories of the place.
Nice approach for sure. Can't wait until you get your North America scenery!
DANG! that rotate was scary! I thought u were going to fly off the runway!
Great video - Glasgow looks the similar in real life
Still smoother than the real EasyJet flight from Bristol to Glasgow :P
I landed at Bristol yesterday and it was the most turbulent landing I've ever had
Great videos mate, it would be good if you can show a replay of your landing with the outside view at the end of the video just for fun
hooray you are flying to my native homeland! Glesga!
Sweet vid!
I like the video very much. When i wore headphones it sounded like i was actually in the plane. Thats also a reason i liked this video. I have already subed to you i always watch your OMSI 2 videos. Please make another one soon!!!!!
Take off at 19:07
I must say a smooth landing enjoyed this video and find it a help as just starting to get ready to learn to fly the passenger jets. Will be checking out your other videos Squirrel ✈️👮
Applause for squirrel!!!!!😁😁😁😁😁
great video mate 10/10
Nice Vid! Really enjoyed it! Can you do a flight from Edinburgh (EGPH) to Gatwick (EGKK) maybe?
Great video! A flight out of Stansted in your next video would be really interesting, being my local airport.
How about a flight from Edinburgh to Farnborough (EGPH - EGLF)? Be great to see the approach to my local airport on the game! Must be the approach onto runway 24 at EGLF too...
Wow you are soooooo good at this
It looks a very good game.Good video
This is just awesome
Next time maybe a flight departing in switzerland, Zurich for example? You may see some mountains :D
Please keep the flight sims coming
nice flight squirrel
I want to play that game just because of how it looks, it only we had a good looking bus sim like that
Paul, will you and Matt start flying VFR around the UK again soon?
matt has a copyright strike. I think he wants that resolved first
+Joseph Enigam Matts copyrightstrike was removed some days ago, he explained it in a video on hes channel
+kimbonzky Only problem is it can take anything up to 10 days for a copyright strike to be fully removed.
+Ryan Blackley Yeah, but its being removed, so it just have to take the time it needs
+kimbonzky Exactly. Hopefully they'll keep it going, was a great series.
Great video, hope you can do some flying in Northern Norway some time Paul.
i love your videos i am new to your channel the first video i saw on your channel was euro truck simulator as soon as i saw it i subscribed keep up the good work ''
Awesome video!

Pretty sure I saw the block of flats I live in as you were descending into Glasgow.
haha that Aurigny ATR I see that everyday at work!
Once you get the Australian scenery fly from Glasgow or London Heathrow, in an a380-800, to Melbourne International.
just to correct, Transition level/altitude is when you start speaking of flight levels and not feet. also fly to north korea.
woop woop glasgow my home!
1- What was that sound in 13:40?
2- And what does Flex mean? (on takeoff after you put the auto throttle)
3- Does the aircraft change automatically from flex to climb? Or do you have to do it?
4- Did you continue to climb at 6000 feet?
5- What is transition altitude?
6- On 22:43 was that rain?
7- What did you do in 29:44? What was the button that you had before changing it? What was the button that you changed to? And why did you do that?

I got it now, thank you very much buddy!!
+Mauro Quaggiotto you're welcome!
Answer to number 1:
That sound is one of the hydraulic pumps working to keep pressure up :)
Thank you banger666!!
Love your videos
squirrel I would love to see a flight into a tropical island setting that would be really cool like Tahiti or something Fiji something like that
Nice :D Keep up the good work
I'm loving it
why not a flight in to Innsbruck?
The approach is epic! :)
And now during the winter, the scenery is great.
Maybe do Frankfurt to London Heathrow?
+Joseph Anastasi thats a good one!
Brendan Salter Thanks m8 :D 👍
+Joseph Anastasi :)
i agree
that’s really short
A GREAT vid thanks..like your choice of flying music ☺
Great video!!
Great vid
