Thanks for taking the time creating this. Excellent content for the community and very interesting also with your explanations to the roles and responsibilities. Wishing you a nice vacation
Hello Magnar, I want to thank you for your very informative videos, and everything you do for the community of flight simulation enthusiasts! Sylvain, France
I am so thoroughly enjoying these videos, Magnar! The ATR is just a wonderful plane to fly, it's a nice blend of simplicity and pilot engagement. Your videos are taking it to the next level in the sim. Thank you so much!
At first I never knew how to operate ATR aircraft and I'm very interested in aviation myself, but I just never knew anything about this aircraft, but then your videos make the ATR look so easy to operate, very detailed in my point of view, very nice video :D
The ATRs, imperfect as they are in the sim currently, is still one of my most flown aircraft, there's something really fun about it compared to typical airliners flying at FL370. I owe a lot to this channel in learning its systems and operations. Hopefully they can continue updating it as there are still some really annoying bugs in it.
Hey, thank you so much for the series 🙂 So far your channel is about the best piece of coherent well-accessible documentation for this plane (for simulation purposes). As a small note, could you please add this video to the playlist as well?
Many thanks for yet another splendid tutorial video. In the last one I hope icing conditions will occur. I had extreme icing buildup recently while anti/de icing were switched on. Wonder what I missed. Thanks again and happy vacation.
thanks for a great and very educational video! could you comment on the overall versimilitude of the simulation? for instance, climb rate, acceleration, handling and so forth? also, what specifically is broken about the simulation of VNAV in the climb? thanks, and have a great holiday.
And the acceleration on ground in thrust idle. Especially the deacceleration on landing with thrust reverse idle seem very very high, you don’t have to use the normal breakes!
Amazing tutorial as always. I'm wondering what the difference is between the blue arrow and the white circle on the ND during the climb. They both look like TOC indications but sometimes they are in different spots. Thanks!
Amazing videos Magnar. I’m a brand new ATR42/72 200/500 series and not familiar to 600 serie. I learned a lot with you with systems videos and now learning the 600. So, I want to say THANK YOU for spending time to do so amazing videos. I have 2 questions if you don’t kind: *Do you know how can I have the SPS 100% functional in my iPad? It’s giving me only examples. *Are you using the Honeycomb Bravo Quadrant? Did you find a good way to set the reverse?
SPS is sold by ATR to the airline companies. It is tailored for their aircraft fleet and airports they are using. ATR offers a course to manage SPS. I doubt others are allowed to buy SPS, but if so, it will be utterly expensive (imagine an absurdly high price, and then multiply by 10). Yes, I use the Bravo, but I have not managed to set it up properly.
Thank you for your vídeos they are very helpful. Don’t you think the ATR-72 is underpowered ? I can’t take off from LESU which is an airport opérated regularly be this aircraft.
Andorra - La Seu d'Urgell Airport has a short runway and high elevation. Therefore, you cannot take off with maximum take-off weight. The take-off speeds must also be reduced. With temperature +3 degrees Celsius, QNH 1013 hPa and 5 kt headwind, the take-off weight should not exceed 21.5 tons. V1 is reduced with at least 5 kt, VR and V2 are reduced with 2-3 kt. You must use full runway length and set full power before releasing the brakes. However, the sim model accelerates a too slow, so you will have to reduce the weight, reduce the temperature, or increase the headwind.
Thanks a lot Magnar. Your videos are very instructive, can't wait until part 4 is ready. I noticed after takeoff that the ATR seems to have the tendency to roll to the left, if not corrected (which can be corrected with 2° ail trim). Is this also observed in real live and do you just correct it manually?
Hi. At high angles of attack, there's a tendency to yaw to the left. This will induce a roll to the left. After take-off the angle of attack is reducing, and there should be no tendency to yaw or roll. Besides, when the landing gear is selected up, we engage the yaw damper, which activates automatic yaw trim. If there's a roll tendency, it is because the roll trim is not set 100% to neutral after trims check. Then, we adjust the roll trim and leave it there for the rest of the day.
Amazing tutorial, captain ! Thank you very very much for this great video. I have a question: Are you experiencing flickering ADF bearing pointers occasionally? I’m also having an issue with the HSI in the VOR mode where the deviation bar gets “lost” , after passing overhead a VOR. Waiting anxiously part 4 of this tutorials! Have a nice day!
@@FlywithMagnar Once again, thanks for the quick reply! I've checked in the content manager and the latest version that's available for me is the 1.0.20 😐... Thank you for the info ! happy flights !
We start the procedure when we approach the holding line. The second half of the procedure is performed when we are cleared to line up. It is not long when you are two pilots!
Hello Mangar. Thank you for the great tutorials. Could you please explain a bit about the take off performance of the ATR. Today I flew out of Arusha in Tanzania. But even with 1800m runway I barely made it out. TOW was around 21800 kg. And with boost on, throttle to max and pax off I overran the runway during rotation and hardly avoided crashing into trees. It felt as if something was holding the aircraft back. Was I to heavy for this runway?
The runway is long enough, but the ATR model in FS 2020 is accelerating too slow. I know the developers are working on the issue. It is not easy because when they change the propeller thrust during take-off, it will affect the thrust during flight (and those data are already very close to the real aircraft.)
@@FlywithMagnar so another bug of the msfs atr. What a bummer. Fingers crossed the developers are able to fix all the issues soon. The ATR is fun to fly.
What does yellow boxes on the overhead panel mean? (Dc svce/utly bus, BTC, ACW GEN1+2, EXHAUST MODE, OVBD VALVE, Rec fan 1+2 and airflow norm high) thank you ?
I tried to follow your instructions but the plane starts to act crazy when I try to do the hotel mode, like the aircraft will start shaking, any ideas what can that be? so weird thanks for this videos
Hi, I'll contact you this way. Yesterday I flew the route LEBGA 1D in Podgorica LYPG with the new update. The second point PG351 was a flyover and the third was a flyby. The ATR flew the second point PG351 well. The third point PG352 is a flyby and the turn was initiated very early and the plane didn't recognize the point and turned back to PG351. When I changed the point to a flyover in the cockpit during the next takeoff just before PG352, it approached the point well, but then flew over the point and turned to PG354. Would a real captain do that in reality? The MSA in the area is very high and the valley very narrow.
ATR has no clear guideline regarding use of the wing lights in flight at daytime. Most pilots keep the wing lights on below FL100 (like the landing lights.)
Thanks for all the explanations! Is de Flight Crew Training Manual available for simmers? I can't seem to find it on the internet (except some very old ones for earlier types).
Good morning instructor :) I really like this aircraft in to MSFS2020 , but sometimes I encounter some problems, today I have the green Prot Level warning on the Primary Flight Display (PFD), what does it mean and how can it be corrected? underneath there is the amber "speed speed" alarm that flashes, I am at an altitude of 21000 feet, the speed is 173knt TAT -17° SAT -24° PWR MGT set on cruise, TQ% on 42.2& and maintains 165knt, among other things I am unable to take and increase speed, I saw that my fuel temperature is at -5° in both tanks. help :) weight, altitude, speed have a connection between them, is this the error? should I go down in altitude? Thank's for this video tutorial
PROT LEVEL warning means the airspeed is too low. Is anti-ice ON? If so, then the minimum speed is the icing bug (amber bug on the speed tape). At 22 tons weight, the icing bug is 165 kt. And are the power levers in the notch? Under those conditions, engine torque should be more than 60%.
Help please: I'm at 17,000ft i and have the TOD between 70NM on the ND. If I set the Autopilot altitude to say 10,000 feet the TOD moves me forward on the ND. Is this behavior normal? I now change the target altitude for descent when going through the TOD. Thank you and have a nice vacation
There are some issues with the remaining distance on the PROG page on the MCDU. However, TOD appears to be at the correct location on the navigation display. When you change ALT SEL, the FMS calculates a new TOD for that altitude.
I noticed in this video TERM shows on the bottom left of the PFD. When I followed along APPR displays on my PFD after takeoff. Did I do something incorrect?
Engine bleed is air from the engine compressor. It is used to pressurize the cabin and operate the de-icing systems. The autopilot can follow vertical navigation during descent and approach. This is called LNAV. The FMS is then defining a vertical path (in degrees) that is followed. This feature is not fully implemented in the FMS by this date.
@@FlywithMagnar Why do you manually select altitude? Does the flight plan not include altitude for each of the nav points? Does the Autopilot not follow nav points exact location (their altitude and position) ? My ATR In the sim likes to lean softly to the left, as if I have aileron trim set wrong. Did I forget yaw dampener, or is this normal behavior?
@@AzzySunfire, the altitudes given at various waypoints are only minimum or maximum altitudes. We select altitude manually for several reasons: 1) Aircraft performance varies with atmospheric conditions and aircraft weight. 2) ATC often instructs us to fly at a certain altitudes to keep us separated from other aircraft. 3) On short sectors, we cannot fly very high. 4) There might be turbulence at some altitudes, so we choose another altitudes.
Here are some examples of a damaged engine: Loss of oil pressure before the engine failed, loud bangs from the engine, erratic engine indications (especially torque and ITT), and severe vibrations.
Maximum cruise speed is achieved with the power levers in the notch and the power management selector set to CRZ, while flying at FL 160 or 180. Reducing the weight will help. Reducing the temperature will also help.
It's always advisable to have the heading synchronized for what can happen. In the face of any problem, you go to hdg and solve it without the aircraft going anywhere. It's done in real life and in simulation.
@@HeinrichHarpo Thank you. That makes sense. So basically just reseting it each time you make a turn. I'm still mostly doing vfr patterns so I tend to keep it on runway heading as a good visual air on my turns
![กี่หมื่นฟ้า | Your Sky Series EP.1 [1/4]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/vLGjxFL6U_I/mqdefault.jpg)
This is number 3 of 4 videos in the series about ATR procedures. I'm afraid the last video has to wait, as I'm off for summer vacation. See you soon!
No issue there, thanks for the video and have fun on your vacation !
Be safe. 😊
The best part, you used the latest FCTM 2022, that's so cool and precise.
Cliffhangers. What is this, TV? :)

Thanks for all the explanations! Is de Flight Crew Training Manual available for simmers? I can't seem to find it on the internet (except some very old ones for earlier types).
Unfortunately no. The manual is the property of the manufacturer and the customers.
I don't know how legit it is but I did find a "For Training Use Only" version with some searching
Is there an objective point in the climb-out procedure that you switch AP on or is it just when you are ready?
It's up to you. Minimum engagement altitude is 100 ft. I prefer to fly manually until the aircraft is stabilized in climb.

I noticed in this video TERM shows on the bottom left of the PFD. When I followed along APPR displays on my PFD after takeoff. Did I do something incorrect?
