The one thing that most simulator pilots are not going to be ready for is the physiological aspects of the landing. As earthbound people we are used to 2 axis of movement. When you add that 3rd axis of movement your body doesn't have a reference point for that, so you have to learn the feel. The one thing that is always missing in the "Can a sim pilot land the real thing" debate is that the test always begins with the aircraft stabilized on final approach in perfect weather. Let's run the test say from top of descent. The crew has just fallen ill and you have reported to the cockpit. Let's also assume that you cannot work the radios, so you cannot rely on ATC for help. Alternatively, you could begin the test at 2500' with extending landing gear, then add in a cross wind, such as landing on runway 36, wind is 060 at 20, gusting 30. visibility 3/4 mile.
I would love to see, and even participate in the "Can a simulator pilot land the actual thing?" video. Your videos are so inspirational to me, keep up the good work!
I talked to a Bundeswehr recuter once and he told me that going into the airforce just to get a pilot licence is not good. Like you said you have to stay there for 13 years i think and you have to do the basic training on a weapon and you need to learn how to be a solider. So its not a really good option in my opinion
Another informative and entertaining video, thanks guys! Great editing too, Adam! Thanks for the time and energy you guys put in this channel, definitely one of the best on youtube 💥
Enjoyed watching this Q&A. Short haul certainly allows for a better family life. Military deploys last months, so you made the right decision going the civilian route. I enjoy your youthful enthusiasm.
Hi Pascal, quick question, would you say that pilots who do integrated flight training have a higher chance of employment compared to those who did modular training? Do they climb the ranks quicker also? I am wondering as I know that modular training is a cheaper route to the ATPL and I cannot see any real disadvantage other than time. Excellent video as always, thanks.
It’s not always 3 minutes. Sometimes the pilot has to switch on the APU before turning the engines off. Because if they don’t all the systems in the plane shut down immediately. If not the APU, they waiting for the ground staff to connect external power.
Thanks for the video Pascal! About the UV-radiation, I heard that the windows block the waves that are responsible for sunburn but not the ones that cause skin-cancer (UVA if I am not wrong). So we should always wear sunscreen :)
Hey guys! Quick question… Can one attend the European Flight Academy with already existing PPL? Does one have to go through the whole process again or they can just skip that part?
I’m living in Brazil but I’m from France, it’s better to me to make my flight training here or in the US/EU? And if it’s better to me to make here, I directly apply for an US/EU airline or it’s better to apply for an Brazilian airline, accumulate flight hours and after that apply to an US/EU airline
I'm not quite sure you remember me, but I commented your videos before. It's really good to see your channel growing, when I was subscribing it was 4k or something, now it's more than 40k!!! that's amazing. As always nice video today. 🤍✈

Yup. My first real world landing in the 737 was terrifying 😂😂😂

You gotta love your country too, indeed! 😅
I love these Q & A's they're informative but also still interesting and brilliant for us pilot geeks

Would love to be part of the “can a sim pilot land the real thing”! I’ve got over 500 hours on vatsim and around 200 more not on the network!

Thank you for helping future pilots in their journey as I am part of them
Omg this is exactly what I needed to know thank you so much!
Hello, im 12 and when i get older i want to work for emirates as a pilot so i just want to say that your a very good person and idol
Hello 👋
@@OneAviationhi
Sup, also emirates is a hard airline to get into, like you im also 12 I want to fly on a smaller aircraft like a 757 or a 737 prob SWA
@@Himalayanking37 I wanna start flying the a320 for easyJet then possibly get a type rating for the 777 in ba I’m also 12
I love the collab between Pascal and Joey
13:22 don’t forget Fenix as well!
I LOVED it! Great video!
Your videos are so nice. Would love to fly with you in the simulator and try the landing.
Your videos are as usual inspiring and informational... I absolutely enjoy watching ur content... Keep going... ✨
Thank you for still making a video even though the footage corrupted 🙌✌️
Niiiiiice video. Looking forward to the future “Day in the life of a short haul captain” videos😎
what the rest days depend on? Why does a flight sometimes last 3 days and sometimes more than 4?

I’m gonna fly discover airlines in a month to Orlando
Love these videos.😅😅How do you guys do a brake check, and why do you have to wait about 3 minutes before engine shutdown?

Hey guys! Quick question…
Can one attend the European Flight Academy with already existing PPL?
Does one have to go through the whole process again or they can just skip that part?
You still have to go through the whole process
I have 1200+ MSFS hours and i already wondered if I could land the real thing. So I would vonunteer for the sim session :)
Always waiting for a Video
Which is nicer from a pilot perspective? A rolling takeoff or a line up and wait😂😂
As a pilot, a rolling, especially an, "Immediate departure."
Thank you for a good and detailed answer!
13:40 , I feel ashamed having 3700 flight hours on my sim XD
Captain can you make video on how to become pilot on airbus a350 aircraft 😢 please ❤😊

I like this question and answer board. I'm already watching.😃🇧🇷
about paying for our training what do you think about a 5% interest over 8 years?
Sehr unterhaltsames und informatives Video!
Could yoe do the video where the sim pilot gets into a real airline simulator, would be fantastic and informative
My personal flight instructor. So for you, yoke or stick??
U can try to make a video with swiss001 to test if a flight simmer can fly the real thing
tbf he does fly planes in real life but not airliners
20:06 i've heard that before..
Haha 😅 thanks for answering my question. Now I know what a FLIEßENLEGER approach looks like 😂👌
Was hat diese landung mit Fliessen zutun?
@@codingvio7383 Kacheln bis zum Boden... 😁
Can I be a commercial pilot with one eye having 20/20 vision and my other eye being a little blurry?
U can get glasses
Yes do the sim video
Pascal, why don't you wear your pilot cap?
Are you from Germany bc of the slight accent. Your english is very good but I can’t figure out where you are from. Germany and uk or just Germany?
He is from Germany also works for a german Airline
Im from switzerland and preparing for the DLR Test. Someone here, who successfully completed the DLR and would be available to
answer some questions?
why does discover cancle so many flights lately ?
Nice video, i would love to participate in a Video on an A320 Simulator, if 1000+ Hours are enough :)
couldnt a sponsership pay for it? or.....
When will we see You in the left seat?
I can be the pilot for the simulator video
over 1.000 hours on xplane and msfs together 😎
1500 in US and Canada
You need 1500 hours for the US.
We need a DLR BU help 😅
Hello F.O Pascale, i just saw an eurowings A330 passover my home. Was that you??
