This is the most comprehensive and clear review of the G1000 I have seen. I have been flying with the G1000 for some time, but didn't even know some of the features until I watched this video. Thank you!!
Fifty years of aviation - Commercial Certificate - Where were you when I was in my earlier training days? Your videos are the best, easy to follow, voice is great and speed is perfect. Good Presentation and I look forward to all of your videos. Thanks
Richard, Glad to have a verteran like yourself among our ranks, and thanks for the kind words. Glad you're finding the content helpful, and thanks for watching!
Wow, this felt like a powerpoint presentation in a paid learning environment. Thanks for this video, I can tell you are very passionate and knowledgeable about this subject!
Thank you for a very clear and concise approach using the G1000. I am a retired twin auto pilot from back in the 70s in northern Alberta and I am finding this new stuff very intriguing. Please keep the videos coming.
Thanks for the kind words Tony, I'm glad you're finding the content helpful. Make sure to check out the videos on the Working Title NXI upgrade - they added some very impressive features, and worked out a lot of the bugs with Asobo's original build. Thanks for watching!
Your tutorials are really the best I’ve ever seen. You’re doing an exceptional work for all aviation pilots. Great and exceeding for flight simulator pilots.
what a super training video! Thank you for taking the time to put this together. Finished it the entire video, I will probably watch again as a refresher. Two thumbs up, Alpha!
Glad you've found it helpful, Bill. It's pretty amazing how realistically this unit works now with the upgrades Working Title has made to the unit. Thanks for watcing!
This is one of the best training aids that I've seen in 60 years of aviation as an ATP, CFII, MEI, Part 135 Check airmen. I fully disagree with comment about newcomers!. If you plan on piloting ANYTHING in the future, keep this video sequence close by. Good job Alpha.
I always appreciate the positive feedback from industry veterans like yourself John. Thanks for the kind words. Glad you enjoy the content, and thanks for watching!
Welcome back to flight sim, @ancientmonotheism5118. I think you'll find this version has a lot to offer! Glad you enjoyed the content, and found it helpful. Just be aware that Working Title has upgraded the G1000, and it has a lot of new features now. You can find videos on the differences in the links below: th-cam.com/video/bfcIzxmW5ug/w-d-xo.htmlsi=0pn32QGHIQjIwjQd th-cam.com/video/Pi1KP4NW534/w-d-xo.htmlsi=DWJcv03xYikqHVos Thanks for watching!
You should publish a book based on your videos. It will sell like crazy because it will be easier to digest. Also it would be very helpful to non pilots who want to fly an airline simulating an actual commercial flight to show a video, or better something in print, to start with an airline flight from takeoff to ILS landing in GREAT detail. Include everything to show what all those buttons and knobs are for.
Some lessons would be great. When I flew FSX I used; Microsoft Flight Sim for pilots by Jeff Van West. And Flight Sim Navigation by Charles Wood - this is still available on the net, I think there are two versions, the blue margin one is the latest.
Don't know if I'll be getting into the book market anytime soon - I have my hands pretty full with just the TH-cam channel - but I will keep it in mind. Glad you've enjoyed the content, and thanks for watching!
Maybe I listed this elsewhere but I’ll repeat it to ensure it gets to you. You seem to be an expert pilot but also an expert in using MSFS. I note you access different views of an airline cockpit rather quickly and it would be helpful to see how you set this up using a keyboard and yoke switch controls. There are many clumsy controls. If you have found a better way, let us know. 14:23
Well that was very educational. Thanks for taking the time to put that together and post it. I can't wait to see what I learn from part 2 & 3 now, thanks!
Thanks for the kind words, TristanJohnCropper. Glad you enjoyed the content, and thanks for watching. There is a lot of information to process when learning an avionics system this complex. If it helps, you can probably skip over part 3 and go straight to the NXI vids after part 2. The GPS system is quite a bit different in the NXI, so watching part 3 doesn't do you a lot of good.
Wow can i hire you as my instructor just amazing watched the whole video sec by sec just understood everything very first time one of the best videos keep it up
I am really enjoying your videos - a small request - could you organize your videos into playlists so there's a better sense of categorization of what to watch and in what order to watch? Thanks!
@vfragos, yes that option was removed when the G1000 was upgraded to the NXI by Working Title. I cover the differences between the 2 units in these two videos: th-cam.com/video/bfcIzxmW5ug/w-d-xo.htmlsi=MAhr3xAASJ8pw5Mj th-cam.com/video/Pi1KP4NW534/w-d-xo.htmlsi=m4IskplPAxs4GjuK Thanks for watching!
They are almost certainly called soft keys because the function is software (menu) driven. The autopilot keys are also "soft" to the touch but they are a fixed function.
OldRighty1 - Yes, I looked this up a few months after I made the video. Turns out the line select keys on the side of most FMS units are also considered softkeys - and they are usually made of a hard plastic.
Hi, excellent tutorial even a year on. I've seen a small green circle with tick marks at W,N&E on the AI floating around the middle where the aircraft seems to be tracking. Can you say what this is?
Thanks for the kind words, and I'm glad you've found the content helpful. That green circle is what's called a flight path indicator or flight path vector. It shows the current flight path of the aircraft (vs. the attitude, which can be different.) I discuss it here: th-cam.com/video/bfcIzxmW5ug/w-d-xo.htmlsi=pn2zYFRWR_aai-eQ&t=1334 (This is part of a video on the differences between the old G1000 and the NXI upgrade that's available here: th-cam.com/video/bfcIzxmW5ug/w-d-xo.htmlsi=OF_FZhUuetu0l3y2) Thanks for watching!
Slightly daft question. My vision isn’t brilliant and I’m finding it really hard to read the display when I’m flying. I’ve taken to putting it in a separate window so I can read it… but then the controls are very hard to use. Is there an easy way to increase the font size on the display, or pop the display and the controls our to a separate display or window?
@jamieknight326, not a daft question - I'm sure plenty of others have the same question as well. I do not know of a way in the GPS settings to change the font size. I also checked the accessibility options in the MSFS menu - but alas, that only affects the font size in the menu and not on the avionics. Unfortunately, I think the font size is hard-coded into each piece of avionics equipment - so I don't think it is adjustable on any unit. Probably what you are doing is the best solution without upgrading your monitor. (I will say that I upgraded from a 22" to a 31" monitor about a year ago, and was very impressed at the difference it made in being able to see the screen. So if it's financially feasible, consider that.)
@python27au, funny how things come full circle. You can now find displays in aircraft that look like flight simulators! I will say, with the upgrades Working Title has installed in the G1000, it's working quite well now!) Thanks for watching!
@Hyestar, glad you enjoyed the content, and thanks for wathcing. Currently, there is not a way to display flap and trim information on the MFD. I believe this is an accurate emulation of how the real life units typically work - which is what working title is going for. With most of the aircraft equipped with the G1000, there is usually a mechanical indication of flap/trim position near the displays (and there may not be a position sensor on those systems) so it is not displayed on the G1000.
I was wondering if you could offer advice on how to setup and fly a visual approach to a specific runway in the GTN750?. How to setup the descend and etc. Thank you in advance!
I was not able to adjust the CRS button to change the VOR heading. I realized that I had startup a flight with a departure and arrival, and this automatically populated a flight plan. I had to press soft key 6 (CDI) to toggle they heading display so I could see the CRS heading.
@ex5tube - yes, when the CDI is set to GPS course display, it will automatically set the course, and you can't change it. You have to hit the CDI key to change over to VOR mode before you can change the course. It's also worth noting that in MSFS, it will also set the course anytime you are in VOR/LOC mode, and tune in an active Localizer or Localizer type navaid.
Thanks for your clear video! When I first start the engine of the aircraft and then enter the flight plan, the engine stops immediately after pressing the ENTER key. Example: I enter EHAM at departure and then press the ENTER key on my keyboard. NOW THE PLANE'S ENGINE STOPS IMMEDIATELY. Is that normal, or is this a bug? Michael from The Netherlands.
Glad you found the video helpful, Joshua Tree. Regarding the engine - I suspect you've accidentally bound your ENTER key to something like your fuel shut-off valve. Check your keyboard assignments in the controls menu.
They are just reference points, JohnVanderbeck. The 45° points are helpful for making procedure turns, and I find the 90° points helpful for pattern work.
@@AlphaHotelFlightSimulation Yeah my comment seems stupid in hindsight lol. I actually did figure that out in the sim, how I could look at the 90 degree left or right mark before my turn and that would show me what the next leg was at. Now that I've used them I am mad other aircraft don't have this! I"m bad at the "compass math".
Please forgive me, as I have not browsed all seven videos, I've just watched the first few minutes. Does this tutorial series cover the NXi versions of the G1000? Is it best to first learn the basic G1000 functionality, then learn the NXi features?
@ex5tube, with the videos that are out on the NXI, you can skip over the one about the G1000 GPS (video #3 on the old G100) - most of that information has been updated with the NXI series. You can also skip the video on the OBS function, if you're not that interested in that mode. Other than that, they were created with the idea of folks watching them in order. The are listed in correct order in this playlist:th-cam.com/play/PL1AlvGUwm14Ao4YOG1MhL2ETj_8U3hpb0.html Thanks for watching!
That's correct Dustin, the arc mode went away when the NXI came on the scene. You can set up an inset map in the HSI that presents in an arc mode - but the arc is much larger (almost a full compass rose,) and I find it more difficult to read with the map in there.
@Brianh-pr9eg, I'm currently using the Turtle beach Velocity One Flightstick. I got that one primarily because it has two throttle levers - the second of which can be used for prop control or spoiler control, depending on what you're flying. It also has a detent for reverse thrust on jets and tubroprops that makes utilizing reverse very simple. I used to use a Thrustmaster T. Flight Hotas, and had that for many years. The only complaints I had with that one was that throttle axix was a little loose, and with the big head, tended to fall to the full forward or aft stops. There was also not an easy way to go into reverse with that one. Thanks for watching!
Alpha Hotel Flight Simulator Training: My MFD moving map never appears. I would have hoped that when the Avionics was turned on, the moving map would have appeared, but it does not. How can I get the MFD to display that? The only display on the MFD is identical to the PFD. I am brand new at MSFS 2020. Can you or someone reading this help me to get the moving map displayed on the MFD? Thank you for any assistance.
Larry, Sounds like the screens may have gotten in the backup mode somehow. Try clicking on the red button at the bottom on the audio panel labled "display backup" and see if that reverts you to normal ops. Also be aware that you need to push the rightmost softkey on the MFD after startup to get the MFD to display.
@garywiley7886, make sure your CDI displaying GPS data. Use the CDI softkey at the bottom of the PFD. If you have an "empty" vor or Localizer down there, there won't be anything for the system to track. If you have GPS data displayed, and it still won't engage, try re-entering the direct, or go direct to the next fix on your flight plan. (You can also just stay on the GPS path using heading mode until the unit sequences to the next fix.)
I have no idea who you are or where you are in the US, and I'm pretty sure you have heard this said previously, but you sound awfully similar to the US Senator Rand Paul? I would guess that his origins match yours so his accent and delivery match yours, but to my UK ear the similarity is uncanny. 😉😉
not matter msfs sdk still not work with g1000 softkeys. unplayable game. there is no need mouse when have hardware g1000,but cant use it lol. mobiflight worket i think how they did it. why cant i make own c# that send those keys when i click my buttons lol waiting 2 years those event work.nopw. so far just 100hours loading main menu. nice microsoft. and 2024 coming LOL for what i buy this game? flightsinworld actually good game. i playing it lol
Could you try a little harder to word your tutorials for NEWCOMERS rather than people who are already semi-technical and know all the purposes of the jargon. The presentation is far too slick and busijnesslike for beginners. Slow down and be a lot more friendly..
@@AlphaHotelFlightSimulation I'm a newcomer, I have little to no issue with this video (by this, I mean it's an absolutely excellent video). I think if you've never been in an airplane it may not be the place to start, but any terms I don't know I can google.
Imo non-pilots should take the private pilot ground course before getting too much into MSFS, and then all this will make a lot more sense. Teaching the G1000 in addition to basic piloting knowledge/concepts/vocab is unrealistic. Thanks for these videos...
Hi: I agree with this critical comment. I lke what you are trying to do, but your pointer moves so quickly from poi to point that it is downright impossible to follow. I'm a very senior fellow, and a teacher for about forty years, and think that it would be better if you tried to cover less per session , but more thoroughly. Buttons are all mashed up in my brain! I note that many pilots and ex-pilots have enjoyed the videos, for to them all of these terms are everyday banter. I guess it all boils down to a question of knowing which audience you are trying to help learn this instrument
"autopilot". Will never understand the purpose of such a thing in a video game. Whole point of paying is to "play". To "fly". Why would anyone want to hit a button to "not play the game"?
That's the beauty of both flight and flight simulators. Some people want the joy of flying aircraft with minimal instrumentation visually, and some like the challenge of learning advanced avionics, automation, and aircraft systems. There's room for all of it (both in real life, and in MSFS!)

Other than that, they were created with the idea of folks watching them in order. The are listed in correct order in this playlist:th-cam.com/play/PL1AlvGUwm14Ao4YOG1MhL2ETj_8U3hpb0.html
Thanks for watching!
29:36 I'm guessing the nxi by Working Title doesn't implement the HSI ARC mode? I'm unable to find it.
That's correct Dustin, the arc mode went away when the NXI came on the scene. You can set up an inset map in the HSI that presents in an arc mode - but the arc is much larger (almost a full compass rose,) and I find it more difficult to read with the map in there.
What peripherals are you using?
@Brianh-pr9eg, I'm currently using the Turtle beach Velocity One Flightstick. I got that one primarily because it has two throttle levers - the second of which can be used for prop control or spoiler control, depending on what you're flying. It also has a detent for reverse thrust on jets and tubroprops that makes utilizing reverse very simple.
I used to use a Thrustmaster T. Flight Hotas, and had that for many years. The only complaints I had with that one was that throttle axix was a little loose, and with the big head, tended to fall to the full forward or aft stops. There was also not an easy way to go into reverse with that one.
Thanks for watching!
Alpha Hotel Flight Simulator Training: My MFD moving map never appears. I would have hoped that when the Avionics was turned on, the moving map would have appeared, but it does not. How can I get the MFD to display that? The only display on the MFD is identical to the PFD. I am brand new at MSFS 2020. Can you or someone reading this help me to get the moving map displayed on the MFD? Thank you for any assistance.
Larry,
Sounds like the screens may have gotten in the backup mode somehow. Try clicking on the red button at the bottom on the audio panel labled "display backup" and see if that reverts you to normal ops. Also be aware that you need to push the rightmost softkey on the MFD after startup to get the MFD to display.
@@AlphaHotelFlightSimulation Thanks so much. That worked.
How do you access replay? 23:17

Glad you enjoyed the content. Thanks for watching!
One of the issues I am having recently is the nav button isn't working on the G1000. Not certain why. Very frustrating! Your comments are welcome.
@garywiley7886, make sure your CDI displaying GPS data. Use the CDI softkey at the bottom of the PFD. If you have an "empty" vor or Localizer down there, there won't be anything for the system to track.
If you have GPS data displayed, and it still won't engage, try re-entering the direct, or go direct to the next fix on your flight plan. (You can also just stay on the GPS path using heading mode until the unit sequences to the next fix.)

I have no idea who you are or where you are in the US, and I'm pretty sure you have heard this said previously, but you sound awfully similar to the US Senator Rand Paul?
I would guess that his origins match yours so his accent and delivery match yours, but to my UK ear the similarity is uncanny.
😉😉
No relation to Senator Paul, though I am familiar with him. We *might* be from geographically similar areas.😆
not matter msfs sdk still not work with g1000 softkeys. unplayable game. there is no need mouse when have hardware g1000,but cant use it lol.
mobiflight worket i think how they did it. why cant i make own c# that send those keys when i click my buttons lol
waiting 2 years those event work.nopw. so far just 100hours loading main menu. nice microsoft. and 2024 coming LOL for what i buy this game?
flightsinworld actually good game. i playing it lol
Could you try a little harder to word your tutorials for NEWCOMERS rather than people who are already semi-technical and know all the purposes of the jargon. The presentation is far too slick and busijnesslike for beginners. Slow down and be a lot more friendly..
Will do my best, but if I talk much slower, my videos will be 3 hours long! 😄
@@AlphaHotelFlightSimulation I'm a newcomer, I have little to no issue with this video (by this, I mean it's an absolutely excellent video). I think if you've never been in an airplane it may not be the place to start, but any terms I don't know I can google.
Imo non-pilots should take the private pilot ground course before getting too much into MSFS, and then all this will make a lot more sense. Teaching the G1000 in addition to basic piloting knowledge/concepts/vocab is unrealistic. Thanks for these videos...
Hi: I agree with this critical comment. I lke what you are trying to do, but your pointer moves so quickly from poi to point that it is downright impossible to follow. I'm a very senior fellow, and a teacher for about forty years, and think that it would be better if you tried to cover less per session , but more thoroughly. Buttons are all mashed up in my brain! I note that many pilots and ex-pilots have enjoyed the videos, for to them all of these terms are everyday banter. I guess it all boils down to a question of knowing which audience you are trying to help learn this instrument
"autopilot". Will never understand the purpose of such a thing in a video game. Whole point of paying is to "play". To "fly". Why would anyone want to hit a button to "not play the game"?
It's a flight simulator
That's the beauty of both flight and flight simulators. Some people want the joy of flying aircraft with minimal instrumentation visually, and some like the challenge of learning advanced avionics, automation, and aircraft systems. There's room for all of it (both in real life, and in MSFS!)
