- A quick flight in the ATR from Luton to Jersey to "keep my hand in". A couple of small mistakes are made, but overall I don't seem to be seeing any of the issues others are having with the aircraft. Great fun.

Well done. Thanks!
I really enjoyed that - thank you!
As a GA only sim pilot I find complex aircraft like this and the airliners quite a daunting prospect.
This was just what I needed - an excellent, step by step and very detailed explanation has helped me understand so much more!
😊👌🏻
You're welcome :)
Nice plane, reminds me of the Dash 8 Q 400.
p.s. I left the power management system on take-off - I told you I was rusty :) (to be honest, all it does is set the maximum power available)
Well, thanks Jon - you indeed promised to come back to the ATR and you certainly have! Its become my go-to aircraft presently with an attachment to the 42 more than the 72. Currently, I'm chugging up the Italian peninsula into the heart of Europe. Great to see you take us through the ropes once more on this absolute beauty of a machine.
I completely forgot to change the thrust management system to climb and cruise though :)
Hello, thanks for the video. I love this very good ATR 🤩 I think that you couldn't see the speed brakes flaps moving because you were on drone mode view. I noticed that with this ATR. You have to choose exterior view mode to see every flaps/gear moving. And I think that speed brakes are only available for ATR 42 and 42S (stol), not for 72.
They are not in this version of the aircraft - a friend that works for Airbus told me :)
Great video didn’t happen to notice if the scenery at the destination is Asobo or an addon?
I love this plane. Flew it roughly two weeks straight. Now I'll fly it again; I'll be rusty. Interesting how you used the hold feature. I've never done that and didn't know you could do that.
I sometimes do group flights with air traffic control, and IFR flight plans - holds are used quite often :)
Thanks for the thorough overview and great content. Found you through the youtube wormhole when looking up information on how to start up the ATR.
There is one thing that bugs me about the ATR in the cockpit. There's a faint, whining tone (I'm guessing from some of the avionics fans) that just irks me, other than that it've enjoyed flying it as well and following along with your guides has definitely played a part in that.
You're welcome :)
Jonathan, best prop airliner in your humble opinion other than the DC-6? I don't have one yet...
The MDF and EWD displays have click spots on them to change the display type, zoom settings and navigate checklists, rather than having to search for buttons on the pedestal. There's a weird graphical description you can pull up on the iPad somewhere which shows you where they are and what they do. Once I discovered that, it made checklists and using the autopilot 100 times easier!
Yes - I know about the click spots :) I choose to use the real-world controls in most of my videos :)
Really wish I could use that littlenapmap simply as a stand alone flight planner (I use the series x to fly). Has to be connected to the sim on PC right? Great video as always.
Yes - LNM runs on the same machine as the simulator.
I enjoy watching your tutorials, simple and easy to understand for non pilots.
I've a question about the Set Auto/ Manual Speed Target knob, located left of Capt PFD. Unlike A320, ATR doesn't have Auto Throttle. After setting the speed target with the knob, how do you get the ATR to follow the speed target?
I'm going to wait until someone more knowledgeable comes up but I use the auto set thing as well but only so the bugs are set on the speed tape during take off or landing. I use them then to know when to rotate or raise flaps and so on. There may be a better way to use them but I don't know those for now.
The speed target is for climb and descent in IAS mode. When in level flight, you use the power levers to control airspeed. e.g. say you set 140 knots speed target, and IAS mode, and you run at full power, the aircraft will climb at a rate to hold the speed at 140 knots. If you lower the target, the aircraft will climb steeper. If you lower power, the aircraft will climb less steeply.
@@jonbeckett Thank you for your detail reply.
Hey Jon, Excellent tutorial thanks. I have just bought this aircraft and am keen to get her flying. You mentioned a check list you have created. Is that available to download or buy?
ko-fi.com/jonbeckett/shop - it's free, but you can donate if you wish :)
I wish there was a way to create a pop-up window for the PFD. It is so hard to see the screen when sitting in a normal position in the VC. Constantly having to zoom in and out to better see the PFD or MFD.
Does the normal right alt + click not work in the ATR ?
Is the power management rotary switch redundant you haven’t selected climb or cruise positions as I thought you should do
You *should* use it :) I left it in take-off throughout - which was of course a mistake that I'll be raked over the coals for now - to be honest I was more interested in seeing if the pumps stayed on.
banking so hard on autopilot lnav selected , after take off tried hard to stable it and turned on autopilot but its not following lnav paths its banking back ,
I notice during descent, after VNAV was activated, why the FMA sometimes display ALT* instead of VNAV PATH ?
Because there is a target altitude, I suspect.
Thanks Jonathan - I'm thinking about giving the ATR a go - any chance you could share your checklist please? 😊
You can now download the checklists from ko-fi.com/jonbeckett/shop :)
@@jonbeckett Got it... Thank you! 😊👍🏻
1 engine Taxi is good.
hi, nice vid! a question: when I try to set ILS, I press the nav button then touch the screen and on my fmc write the ILS but it wont enter. It says nav freq error, do u know how t fix this? thx
You have to use the buttons on the central console to enter frequencies (I think?)
Jon you dont use the Power Management system?
I left it in take-off throughout - which was of course a mistake that I'll be raked over the coals for now :) To be honest I was more interested in seeing if the pumps stayed on.
Not gonna rake my man i did it too lol it flys faster in MC mode lol
I heard that you have to use the WEIGHT in game to match the ATR or it wont fly correct
Not seen that myself - but it kind of makes sense.
@@jonbeckett yeah its broken apparently
Have you opened up your airbus side-stick to grease it ?
Yes :) I've seen two of them - I've had them both to bits, and sprayed WD-40 into the sensor for the twist grip.
@@jonbeckett did you follow a guide ? I tried opening the bottom but there’s cables there so I don’t want to mess it up
Do you use dx12?
No
:)
Is this airplane worth it?
Yep
Блин,сплошной звездешь
Хоть бы посмотрел,как реальные пилоты на нем летают!
