- Hi all, I'm a PMDG tech team member and real life 737 pilot. Here is my next video in the 737 tutorial series.
In this tutorial we will land in Dublin and taxi to the gate. Please view it in conjunction with the theoretical landing video found here:
• PMDG 737-700 for MSFS ...
The video has been taken using a pre-release beta version of the product, so you can expect to see some issues that will be fixed before release. There's no need to point those out as the team will be aware and working on them already. For example the trim sound is not working 100%.

These tutorials are not designed as absolute beginner tutorials. It is expected that the viewer already has basic experience with airliners and knows the basics how to operate an aircraft.
Instead these tutorials will focus on the 737NG as an aircraft and the particularities of how to operate it.
I'll be closing this introduction by saying that I'm not a professional TH-camr or Streamer quite yet and these videos are my very first that actually get more than a hundret clicks. I have never before created such content so bear with me for doing beginner mistakes.
I record straight from the sim without any fancy stuff going on in the background.

And of course the most important quote from the Flight Crew Training Manual at all:
"The smoothness of a landing is NO criteria for a good landing!"
Thats right, Survival is. LOL
I understand if it’s too smooth, the speed brakes won’t deploy since the sensors won’t notice. Is that correct?
@@FlightSims There is a squat switch on the landing gear that works when a landing gear strut compresses, which activates and deactivates certain actions on the aircraft, for instance you cannot retract the landing gear while on the ground due to the squat switch.
good excuse for inferior pilots
@Llamato Good landing: you get to walk away. Really Good Landing: You get to use the airplane again!
An absolutely fantastic series of video's! I really felt as though I was sitting next to you on the flight deck. Thank you.
Excellent videos today, particularly enjoyed the Landing Tutorial, wealth of great information. Thanks again for your professional work in creating these informative videos for us.
Wonderful series. Thanks for all the work you put into this. As we are looking at the intro image for a while, I can't help but recognize that this image seems to be taken on approach to cologne! Looks awesome.
yep, it is ;-)
That was allot to take in. Of course there is allot going on flying airplanes. I watched 13 and the two part 14 tutorials just now. Thanks for all the information on how things are done and for taking the time to make your videos.
I sure hope PMDG is remunerating you fairly or generously! Of course you don’t have to answer that, it’s none of my business. You are a great asset to the MSFS and PMDG community and really appreciate your work here. Thank you!
In fact I'm volunteering with my work for PMDG, I do not get paid by them.
That was a flawless butter👌🧈
So many get that information, thank you! Have a safe flight!! Capt
VR controller support is a must for me as I abandoned all but rudder pedals a few years ago since x-plane was so good. Decent controllers really add to the immersion.
I've never used VR on any of my systems so I can unfortunately not really comment on it.
Brilliant, thankyou !!
I see they added the sound to the stab trim wheel and the speed at which it turns looks to be correct now since it seemed slow to me from before. "Wonderful"
It still needs some more work, it's not perfect yet. But it's on a good way.
Hey man, love these videos, especially the full flights. Any chance we can see more full flight videos coming up the next few weeks? Thanks for all the hard work, the community is loving it!
I just recorded a new one today. Knowing TH-cam however it'll need processing until at least late Saturday evening before it's available in HD.
@@A330Driver Awesome! Thanks again for all the hard work on the product and the videos.
@@ROsteveification My pleasure! I am sure you're going to like this one!
3:00....yes very important..In real life people dont care about it most of the time ;) This guy is a good instructor ;)
Fantastic set of videos. Would be lost without them. These and 320simpiot for A320 are best for FS2020. Regarding landing, I really struggle. I’ve tried countless times but as soon as I disconnect the autopilot I can never achieve a clean landin, either losing the centreline or the gideslope or both!. What actual manual control inputs/thrust changes are used during the last 1000/500 feet altitude? Is autothrottle disconnected? Whatever I do just results in a very messy adding.
To overcome this annoying pause issue qithin MSFS just disengage the AP right before pausing and then engage it again immediately after unpausing the sim.
What throttle quadrant are you using that you are able to keep the engines in idle reverse? My honeycomb can only do on/off for reverse :(
Hi, do you flare at 20m ?
I'm really struggling with the landing. Loosing altitude too early. Do you do all the work with the yoke and throttle?
I.e. to adjust altitude, just more thrust or pull on the yoke or both ?
I think sometimes I adjust too much.
Great job Captain, i love your tutorial. I used pmdg since fsx. A question
I have in my sim 2 only switch landing lights. I saw 4 switchs in this video... Why?
You have LED lights installed on your plane while I used the conventional ones in this video.
How did you reset the trim to 4 so quickly? I can only move the trim manually. Is there a click spot to automatically reset the trim?
Btw I think the reason the MCP speed wasn’t reset when you pressed the LVL change button was because it defaults to the last entered speed which you had manually set earlier. Also thank you for your videos.
It defaults to the closest speed to the current one. So when you're below 100kt it would reset.
So it might be interpreting you clicking the FLC button multiple times on the ground at a low speed as an error/abnormal conditions and attempting to correct it by setting the MCP speed to the default value of 100 knots multiple times. And as you said in the video it depends on the model/software version of the aircraft. Thanks.
hey can i ask what graphics settings you use - I have very similar specs to you but my sim is very choppy at the moment
Might be a silly question but where can you see the pitch at 2
At which altitude would it be appropriate to set the engines into idle prior to touchdown? - Thank you, for all these helpful videos. :)
If you're on your target speed then between 30 and 20ft RA.
i follow all your videos !!! really amazing job !!! one questions when i disconnect the AP on approach an alert sounds start but i am not able to stop it ...the only way to do it is to re engage the AP. any Ideas?
Just press the disconnect button a second time.
I thought the transponder was off at the gate?
I've watched and studied every one of your tutorial videos. Amazing work and detail. Thank you so very much! I would, nonetheless, mention that you seem to inject a bit of negativity in regards to the MSFS platform every once and awhile. I find that it's really not needed and takes away from the amazing professionalism you show during your videos. Again thank you for your work!
Hello thank u for this amazing videos really enjoy watching it ... BTW sir as a part of pmdg team and also a real pilot do u agree with flightdeck2sim that the aerodynamic still need some improvements ? he said it float a lot would really appreciate ur reply
They're not perfect, MSFS is still pretty limiting despite all the adverts by Asobo how good it would be.
There are some things that I have really pushed the developers to do that were just not possible because of base sim limitations.
Asobo was made aware, but didn't care.
@@A330Driver thank you so much ... is there's any plans to improve the flight model if these limitations were gone during the development of of the sim ? I asked the question because the aircaft is now officially released so things could be deffrent now.
@@alton4357 Provided Asobo fixes it in a reasonable time limit (aka while the 737 is still in active development) I'm sure they will. I can't say what might happen once development starts to focus on the 777 and 747.
@@A330Driver thank you!
My plane wont show anything inside on the panel
Werden die extendable landing lights bei der Landung gar nicht verwendet?
Oh und vielen Dank für die super Videos 😊
Sie werden eingeschaltet, sobald die Landefreigabe erhalten ist. Der Trigger fehlte mir hier im Video einfach, da die Videos offline aufgenommen sind. Sorry ;)
@@A330Driver Ah perfekt, Danke 😊 Gar kein Problem, kommt vor 😄 Ich schau die Videos sicher noch 5 mal bis ich Alles verinnerlicht habe
Do you always disconnect auto throttle as you disconnect the AP ? I have found that if I don’t do that I have to fight the stick much more to get the plane down.
Yes
Have you covered one engine taxi in and taxi out procedures? I was told by 1 pilot its engine 2 on for taxi out but engine 2 off for taxi in but SOP's can be different so curious if you do different
Don't think I covered that in a tutorial yet. What you list above is how we do it in my airline. But when I posted about that at some point earlier in the life of my channel I got a backlash of people saying "but I've seen airline xyz do different, you're an idiot", that's why I refrained from the topic ever since.
@@A330Driver well then they’re the idiots especially if they’re not 737 pilots.
Sir.I use also TCA yoke and throttle.Can you share your sensitiviy and configuration?
Hi, I've done a dedicated video, try the search function on my channel.
Do you recommend pre-flaring at all? I notice you don't even begin to reduce the rate of decent until 20 feet.
No, not at all. Maintain a steady rate of descend until starting the normal flare. In fact it is expressively forbidden by Boeing.
When do you set the thrust to idle? After 20ft callout?
Between 30 and 20. The exact moment depends a bit on the exact flight conditions, you need to develop a bit of a feeling for the exact moment.
thought this is going elaborate landing technique, unfortunately learned nothing but some lights shutdown handling
Good idea for a future video, a bit more elaboriation on the exact flare technique might be a good idea.
4:45 WTF? :) how did you find out?
Will this run on a 4 core system? I have a i7 4770k @ 3.9ghz
Sure
Any chance we'll get to fly this plane ourselves this weekend?
I hope so, but I can't confirm or deny anything.
@@A330Driver Top Secret I see...🤐
@@A330Driveryour opinion had a release today or tommorow
Release is on Monday the 9th
How does the aircraft feel while flairing and in the flair?
That really comes down to the hardware one uses. With my Thrustmaster Boeing yoke it feels a little easy to flare, but that's the cast with most MSFS aircraft using this particular piece of hardware. Therefore I'd say it feels alright. I'd have to try it with a multi thousand dollar force feedback 737 replica yoke to be able to give you an actual real answer here.
All the aerodynamic effects are there, but with different ranges of travel of the hardware and without elevator feel computer in the hardware yoke it's always difficult to comment on the flare.
@@A330Driver have you ever tried the zibo 738 on xp11?
@@gamerdeol2694 p3d is more realistic.. they will use it in some training motion platform in our countrie.. flew a couple of times and it was unbelievable realistic..
@@Arvidje whish that was true, student pilot here and i cant really agree with that :/ Just look up xp11 vs p3d real airline pilot and watch the video :). Just think about it, do you think a plane can float down the runway with idle thrust all the way down to the end without any pitch inputs? Or climb at a fixed rate without any movement at all, p3d is realistic in terms of systems yes, but flying dynamics are hard coded in and not simulated with wind forces like in xp11.
@@gamerdeol2694 i agree on the lack of pitch inputs.. but with the latest updates for p3d, and pmdg version in conjunction with assons like real turbulence, it will give u a really awesome experience with the 737 in the sky and on the approach .. u get bumps and unexpected wake turbulences it will result in vibration etc.. flying on rails is from the past with the pmdg in p3d..
When i disconnect from autopilot using the disengage button the autopilot disengaged sound keeps playing forever. Anyone know what I am doing wrong?
Press it a second time
@@A330Driver when i press the rectangular white switch at the Autopilot panel and then press it to its original position it still plays the sound forever. i have now binded the Autopilot Off action to my joystick and it only plays the sound 2 times and then stops. Anything I am missing?
@@A330Driver Please elaborate. i am having the same issue. Are you pressing the AP button? or the white rectangle twice? please help !
@@Slow370Z go to settings and bind autopilot off to a button. to disconnect sutopilot press that button twice
@@Airboss007Channel Got it, I’ll try that. Thanks
Shouldn't you press the master caution recall after all those steps?
2 other things that came to mind, is it mandatory to start the timer once vacated to count 3 minutes until engine shutdown? If we had a wxr and left it on, would we hurt anyone?
Yes, 30 seconds after the engines are at taxi thrust settings and the flaps are up.
Starting the timer is not mandatory, however if you want to do single engine taxi I'd highly recommend it to stop the 3 minute cooldown period.
Yes, the WXR can cause severe injury if someone is exposed for a long time. Take great care of it!
Personally, whenever we turn into the gate I've made it my SOP to check both NDs and make sure the WXR is OFF, on top of the normal checks.
Where can I get the terminal parking charts?
They should be part of whatever charts you use. AIP or Navigraph should both have them.
@@A330Driver Thanks!
I've started using Navigraph charts, I wasn't using them in MSFS2020 at the time I asked the question 😅..
I'm a pilot (PPL) in the U.S. and I use DroidEFB on my phone a lot, so I'm just use to using FAA charts not Jeppesen..
My DroidEFB doesn't have any downloads for terminal parking charts, it's not exactly an airlane pilot kinda EFB if you know what I mean..
It's really just for IFR and VFR operations for the Private Pilot, not the airlines.
It has everything else, just not parking gate charts😄
But I went ahead and got the Navigraph charts anyways, the format is killing me though, just not real familiar with them and this might not be a good Idea..
It's probably going to screw me when I get back into a real plane😁.
I just rather stick with one or the other I guess..
Is the plane flaring automatically ?
If you do an autoland yes. If you don't then of course not.
@@A330Driver I tried to engage the second auto pilot for auto land but it does not engage. Is that not working functionality ?
The problem is the 737 is designed for a two crew operation. You should try VR for a real experience.
10 kts? 30 is to slow for me
Can i use it in Ipad 2022 ?
youre the funny bot voice 😐
bot voice? Hey, at least call me an Apache Attack Helicoper!
Captain, can you taxi with 1 engine only…? Is it realistic modelated this procedure into the 737-700 PMDG for MSFS? 🛬🤔
Yes and yes. And you can achieve great fuel savings with it!
@@A330Driver wonderful, thank you very much! ⛽️💪🏻😁
