- Microsoft Flight Simulator is a very serious game about piloting very complicated planes around an accurate model of the entire world.
Naturally, this goes about as well as you'd expect.

Imagine if Jon had become a pilot
"Good evening ladies and gentleman. On this flight from Heathrow to Edinburgh we'll be following the M4 north at an altitude that allows me to read the road signs. We shall be disilluminating the seatbelt signs by Norwich, and hope to begin our descent at around Newcastle. Thank you all, and hope you have a pleasant flight."
If im flying and and I hear Jon's voice come over the intercom, I'm RUNNING off the plane.
Eaglescout60 Take 2 things with you while you’re at it, a parachute and me
@@Le_R73 I doubt parachutes work on the altitudes Jon is flying, tbh. You'll hit the ground before you can even grab the cord. Though on the positive side, you might just survive a fall from that height.
Killean perfect, now, which button opens that door? Anyone? No? Well, I’m doing- OH GOD!
This made me realize Jon as a pilot would fit very nicely in the cast of Cabin Pressure.
Planes: designed to cruise at several thousand feet of Altitude
Jon: Proceeds to fly plane at 400 ft above oxford
Otherwise I wouldn't be able to see the city well enough :(
@@ManyATrueNerd You actually did pretty well with flying, for someone who has never flown a plane before. BTW the "delorean numbers" are your radio frequencies. typically you would have one set for general air traffic and one set to the air traffic control so you always have someone you can radio in to if you have an emergency. Additionally if you are flying at an altitude of 18,000 ft or higher you are flying based solely of your cabin instruments and what the air traffic control person is telling you.
A Cessna flying low is not that big of a deal. Certainly not nearly as big of a deal as ignoring the huge pop up telling you to retract your gear and how to do it.
@@Aaron-xq6hv Well see, by law if you are over a crowded settlement (Area of Congestion) you must keep a min of a 1000ft as measured from the peak of the tallest obstacle. The only exception to this rule is when you are landing or taking off. So when Jon was flying over oxford at an illegal altitude. Which is technically worse than forgetting to retract landing gear. One poses a risk to everyone in the city, the other only poses a risk to the plane itself
@@HailKosm But also by law if you don't read pop up in video games it's ten years in prison.
* Looks at altimeter, vertical speed gauge, fuel gauges *
"These are not important!"
Right. Sure, John.
For bicycles, no. For aeroplanes, yes.
@@Pchlster LMFAO
They'll be REALLY important for a few minutes, then he won't have to worry about them ever again
I don't mean to split hairs, but they aren't used for a basic landing. :P
True, they aren't. Not with a competent pilot at the helm, they aren't. For someone who isn't clear on things like cruising speed and maximum altitude for their plane... well, it's not that they're useful for that person, but the information is available right in front of you.
I know the game isn't supposed to be about the horrible and devastating crashes, but man do I need those animations of horrible and devastating crashes.
Those were always my favourite part of Flight Simulator 2002.
"Falling gets included in airspeed, right?"
Yes, Jon. Falling does get included in airspeed.
Well, depends how you're falling. A nose dive, sure. A spin? Not so much.
Game: Maintain an altitude of 3k feet at a velocity of 300 knots
Jon: Alright alright, 300 feet at 3k knots. Simple enough.
I didn't know the game had an SR-71. LOL
"I have no way of cutting the engine and I don't know why! Uhh... does anyone know where the, where the... uhh, the airport is? Officially it's still in front of me, I was supposed to get there after three minutes, but it's been a lot longer than three minutes and we haven't got there yet and what's that over there?" This is the best in-flight announcement a passenger can ever hear.
Jon: "Time to do some sightseeing of Oxford"
Me, an Oxford native: "Squeals of excitement"
*5 minutes later*
Me: "I have no memory of this place"
I love how Jon feels obligated to give a tour of England in any game that includes it/takes place there
Jon: "Controllers are better than a mouse and keyboard at steering an airplane."
< _Jon proceeds to violently jerk the plane with a slight touch of the controller joystick._ >
Also Jon: "Why do I need to slow down on a landing? Full speed ahead!"
< _Flight instructor in the next seat quietly peers over at Jon with worry and existential anguish._ >
Flight instructor fastens his parachute
Flight instructor: Bailed out 5 minutes ago with the black box. Watches in horror from the ground while recording for posterity.
Jon's piloting will make any atheist into a believer.
This is great with auto-captions. The intro is literally, "Good afternoon Malaysia, I'm John Cena".
Oh no
Ha! It does!
Well, that's less than fortunate...
Jon has been face caming the entire time we just can't see him.
Bruh moment
Having done flying before, watching Jon push a Cessna at 200 knots into a residential area is blood-curdlingly terrifying, I have no idea how that thing held together in the air.
Does this mean the summer 2020 NerdCubed, ManyATrueNerd and Mattophobia road trip special will be multi-player Flight Simulator, if so, I am so down for all three of you to do a road trip in the sky!
It's so needs to happen, their chemistry reminds me of top gear honestly.
@@nateg452 Since Jon is the James May of the group, he now needs to read James' book on "How to Land an A330 Airbus."
I dont think it can be done, since none of them would be able to land
@@nateg452 It's all the good parts of top gear with none of the guilt supporting casually transphobic people. It's great
“A serious game for serious people”
*snickers in airforceproud95 while barrel rolling a hot air balloon through the control tower*
Oh, no, I need to look this up now...
Blog it
Butter
groundpound69, you mean.
IT'S WAFFLE NIGHT!
shit...
Me, seeing the thumbnail for MSFS pop up:
“Microsoft Flight Simulator? Why the heck would I want to watch someone just flying around in clear blue skies for 40 minutes??”
“wait a minute, it’s Jon...
*click*
Is anyone else imagining some passengers in the back seat, paralysed with fear as Jon says:
''I haven't flown a plane before''
''I don't actually have a map''
''Don't know what these numbers and switches do''
Imagine showing this game to us in the 90s...the realistic graphics would have blown our minds! :D
Yeah back when characters were walking cyber trucks
90s? I played in the 80s. Monotone beeps, wire frame everything.
You had two plane choices, Cesna and Learjet, and Sopwith Camel in the WWI combat version - although I managed to switch to Learjet in combat and overshot the combat area frequently.
Yeah but then some might ask... "Where's the world trade center?"
@@metetural9140 I thought the start point was Chicago O'Hare and the tower on the skyline was the Sears Tower
We should have a video of attempting to circumnavigate the globe with Jon, Matt and Dan in Microsoft Flight Simulator.
Can you do that?
With Jon in control and Matt and Dan watching in horror, absolutely
@@TypicallyThomas Scott would have to have the patience of all the saints to do that without leaving a quarter of the way through.
Grand Historical Gamer yeah
Jon: "Only so many roads can have 4 lanes"
Me: confused American noises
If Skylines has taught me anything than that 4 (or more) lane roads inside a city are a very bad idea.
If you had reasonable... or ANY public transport infrastructure, you too would only need a few roads that that 4 lanes.
@@SarahAndreaRoycesChannel
*Laughs in 8 lane highways in Houston*
@@MelficeSilesius I mean even then, when you also have a state that has a population of 40 million residents, you kinda gotta realize that you need alot of 4 lane roads
@@MelficeSilesius There's a bigger problem with that; people from outside the cities would need to commute to the closest public transport terminal, which is unlikely to be nearby them. You'd either need truly massive feeder systems, or truly massive parking lots that would service what multiple feeder branches would have serviced.
I really can't remember where I saw the video, but it went in depth as to why public transit isn't super viable for the US; there's always that great video about why trains in the US are bad which explains it well too. For comparison of size, the US is about the size of all of Europe all the way to the Urals, with about the population of eastern or western Europe (they're similar in pop, if you divide europe in half rather than other subregions). In addition, our population is more spread out (and not in cities but often in massive suburbs; I've never so much as walked to the shops because it'd take me 20 minutes for a one way trip to the nearest crappy one, and this isn't even a very big suburb), but also the jobs are more concentrated in the actual cities. And the population not spread out in ways that make great sense for public transport.
Now, being from California, I know a fair bit about commuting problems. For reference, California is slightly smaller than Sweden, with a population somewhere between Ukraine and Poland. It is absolutely terrible when it comes to entire cites that are entirely modern fabrications of massive neighborhood developments spread across a number of square miles with like a couple of shops. Mine is a city of about 200k, and would take about an hour to bike across the entire thing assuming absolutely no interruptions. People commute, by car, up to a couple of hours; for instance, there are people in Sacramento who will commute to San Francisco (really more places near SF than SF itself), though that is less common. Look at, if you will, the Greater Sacramento Metropolitan Area, as it's a great example of the problems here. People from pretty much a hundred miles+ around it will commute in to work. And the larger your radius, the area needed to be serviced grows quite a bit more than linearly.
There is the problem of who would run such a system; you see, the US system puts a great deal of power in the hands of the states and lesser local governments. So there's not going to be any federal public transit system (and such an idea would be idiotic, if nothing else because of the sheer scale of such a thing). The states might run some things in a limited fashion, but often they're uninterested, tend to come up cash strapped for one reason or another, and tend to be less than effective at a great wide variety of things. Counties and the like are often too small and poorly funded, and such public transit would need to go inter-county in most cases because the counties were there before the cities and population centers. You also have other internal divisions problems adding to this; commuting across state lines would bring you in contact with a number of entirely different public transit systems run by different people with different priorities.
Also, the population keeps drastically shifting. My city was basically a town with mostly farmland and a couple subdivisions in the early 90's, and had reached full size by mid 2000's, while inner Detroit has practically been entirely abandoned.
It's just not "hurr durr, stupid Americans can't figure out that public transport would fix all their problems." A major reason for our current traffic issues is that many of the slated (or proposed) improvement projects to make commuting better by car can't get done. Take Sacramento again; highway traffic into and out of this major transportation hub (it has 3 major freeways running through it); on two sides traffic flow is mainly limited by bridges, and one of those is only three lanes, which is narrower than the highway is on either side of it _which already needs to be widened._ The US's infrastructure is also generally crumbling in the first place, and it's not even due to a lack of spending. The US spends a reasonable or higher (I forget which) amount on it than other countries per capita (iirc). It's just gotten (at all levels of government at least) less and less efficient at both spending that money and making that money go further for reasons that are hard to even figure out. I'm really wishing I remembered the video where I saw that, now.
Jon: "Fly the friendly skies with JonAir!"
Me: *Looks for the nearest rail terminal*
Am I sitting in an ejection seat for this flight? No? How can I upgrade to one?
@@ryanpayne9119 Ejection seats are available in the First Class cabin. Business Class passengers are handed out parachutes.
“Whiskey Tango Foxtrot!” 😂😂😂😆
"There's something wrong with the plane!"
That would be the pilot, Jon.
Jon: Hmm can't quite figure out how to fly a Cessna, so maybe a 747 will be easier?
The autopilot helps. Works for China!
I would like to imagine Jon being a real pilot, commentating like this without realizing the speaker was on the whole time.
As someone who works in aviation this was painful....and extremely entertaining!
do pilots ever wish there was a 3rd person camera for the aircraft? Or is it not as useful as it always seems like it'd be in video games since you're reading instruments all the time anyways?
RaidsEpicly actually some large airliners do have external cameras to assist with taxiing, but otherwise they serve no real purpose. If you’re flying VFR then you’re gonna be spending 90% of your time looking around outside for traffic or collision hazards and navigating anyway.
RaidsEpicly instruments are mainly when you’re in the clouds so no need to glue your eyes to them out of the clouds. And for the 3rd person, it won’t help like in games except the larger aircraft in the taxiway I’d say
@@RaidsEpicly it's really nice to put your face up to the glass if you can sometimes haha
As someone who can read the on screen prompts this was painful😅
The amount of aviation law Jon has broken in this video is a lot.
According to all known laws of aviation...
... There are laws in the sky?
Many A True Nerd As a person studying to be a lawyer, I can confirm there are laws for everything that exists and probably a few things that don’t
Many A True Nerd The book of US aviation regulations is literally 550 pages long. And that’s the abridged version. I’d imagine it’s similar across the pond.
@@4thPlayerFilms it's worse. Because rather in parallel with how Americans have state and federal law, there is international aviation law governed by organisations like IATA etc, then we also have local law governed by organisations like CASA ( civil aviation safety authority) etc. It's such a fucking mess.
"I need to get under the clouds." Oh god Jon, please no. Not the best idea in a massive storm... oh god he's flying at 500 ft....
Flying a 747 at 500ft like its an F-14 at that.
You know it's going to be a good video when one of the first things Jon says in the cockpit is "Most of these things you can ignore"
Me before clicking: Oh finally, a competent MS Flight Sim player... this guys is smart; he definitely knows how to fly.
MATN: I know nothing about planes - they're magic made by wizards
Me: damnit
"Lots of it is just fields" dang I didn't know England was Illinois.
Illinois used to be called New Flat England for that reason before the tea incident.
History Facts.
Hey Jon, glad to see you've earned your wings I'm an A320 pilot in real life, based in Florence, if you ever want me to give you a quick lesson on how to fly an airliner we can do it.
Guys, let's show this comment to Jon I bet the video would be amazing!
Btw, long time viewer, keep up the good work good sir!
That’s an incredible idea. I would love to see it
the best flight I will never ever get on.
I'd really like to see him go for a first lesson in a 152. For so many it's very classique for our first experience. It's also fun that John flew 1 here. I'd love to see him do it and show people what it's like
I would LOVE this!
"There's just a bunch of parked traffic on the M25" ... Yep! Sounds about right!
The fucking M25!
Crowley's greatest achievement. XD
"We kinda came in too steep... and upside-down."
Note to self, don't take a drink while Jon is landing a plane. My poor monitor...
I woke up my wife laughing at that one.
Rudder and two wingtips = three-point landing.
its easy, a plane is just a boat in the sky you need to just pray to the sun god
Praise the sun!
What if your flying at night when the sun isn’t visible?
And when you're done praying to the Sun God you just hope you don't fall out of the sky and if you're flying at night will you just talk you don't fall out of the sky.
Unless it gets too late in the day... then you enter what professional pilots call "the Heathen Realm", also known as night to the layman
Nah you need to pray to Zeus or Ouranos.
Jon, your lowflight over St. Gilles killed some friars and a couple of Classics professors.
jon: "i wish you could just stop the plane"
me: [grinning like an idiot, thinking "i know the stop the plane button"]
If only there was a way to PAUSE the flight.
@@Not-Great-at-Gaming even outside of that, there is a button you can press to just freeze the plane in mid air to look around
@@saccharinesilk Its literally the pause button.
@@Not-Great-at-Gaming y is the pause button??
@@saccharinesilk The actual pause button on the keyboard pauses the plane in midair (photo mode).
"The Dolorean numbers" best description ever.
i shall have to share that one with my avionics prof.
10:34 my favorite scene in Last Crusade: Sean Connery “I didn’t know you could fly a plane” Harrison Ford “Fly, yes, land, no”.
Harrison ford actually can fly a plane
@@MrGhosta5 Except for that time when he couldn't and buzzed a passenger jet in 2017, and crashed his vintage plane on a golf course in 2015, and crashed a helicopter in 1999.
Nightweaver20xx exactly. “Fly, yes, land... no” although any landing you can walk away from is a good one, any landing you can fly away from is a great one.
I showed my wife this video. She's a test pilot. I'm pretty sure she just had an aneurysm
Jon: "There's only so many roads with that many lanes"
Me: *laughs in American*
Haha American.
After seeing Jon's bird-plane in that one sandbox game, I don't have great expectations...
You should have great expectations you will piss yourself laughing
Game: You crashed
Jon: *This is fine*
After so many years, I'm surprised your putting out such plane content...
would you exPLANE that to me?
I thought you spelt “Plain” wrong but then I realized it’s a joke. It didn’t really take off for me.
@@TheLiamster Not taking off? That´s rudderdicelous
@@ChulioRCHulio if you keep making plane puns I'll have to throttle you
@@mysticdawn7569 Not with this altitude
Fun fact, your artificial horizon (the blue and brown part) actually can't show you upside down as its physically limited. Not sure how it is in game as I haven't done so with the 152. Also I'd recommend using the 172 as it comes with a glass cockpit which is easier to learn and presents the information better imo. It also has autopilot which can help quite a bit.
Also Cessna is company not type. You're flying a 152 which is a common trainer aircraft.
Also the beep is your stall horn. Basically a whistle in the wing that makes a noise if the angle of attack is too high (leading to a stall).
Your pitch doesn't actually determine if you're going to stall or not. It's how the air is flowing over your wings. When the angle of attack is too high the air no longer sticks to your wings and you lose lift.
As for the instruments.
The go starting from the top left,
Air speed indicator. (Shows airspeed from air coming into your pitot tube and compared to air from a static port),
Your artificial horizon (uses a gyroscope to show you level and is spun with air from your pitot tube),
A clock,
Your altimeter shows altitude by comparing air from your static port to a sealed compartment)
A localizer (I may have this name wrong as I don't fly gauge aircraft anymore) for navigation (same as the one below it. Using both allows you to triangulate your position),
On the left again, a turn coordinator which shows the bank of your aircraft as well as how coordinated your turns are. (The more coordinated the more comfortable as well as the more efficient you are.),
A compass, vertical speed indicator. (this shows how fast up and down you are moving)
The more important a gauge the closer it is to the top left as your eyes should always try to be outside the cockpit for VFR. It's important to keep an eye on the gauges but remember to look outside too. This is one of the biggest things that people mess up when first learning to fly.
I'd be more then happy to answer any questions you may have as well
I feel like one of us is now obligated to take Jon up for some pattern pro, stalls, slow flight, and a cross country. That would be great.
"We're falling out of the sky right now, which is positive"
Uh Jon?
You know Jon, it would probably be a good idea to learn the plane's basic controls BEFORE takeoff.
29:30 Yes. You dont need engines to climb, just velocity you can trade for height. And vice versa, you dont need engines to accelerate, just altitude you can trade for velocity.
Game: press the left stick to retract the landing gear
Jon: H O W
MATNs Serious playtrough of the serious Flight simulator, with serious undertone and serious superb editing skills thanks to Claire!
Oh and Jon helped....more ore less serious
I´ll take it seriously!
As a pilot in training, I absolutely love this!
airline pilot here, can confirm, we're all wizards. that's why we get the nicest hats.
Ah, so that's why they insist we learn to use "Wizz-weels", because it is a wizard wheel...I thought it was just American slang,....
Oh please, someone make him play modern-era games more often! At first, he thought that a gun was a metal tube where you put some gunpowder in and now this.
No offence, but you sound like a caveman and I find it hilarious.
It's funny because he's a classics major from Oxford. I love Jon like he's my starter pokemon but it will never not feel cathartic to see the epitome of English upper class privilege allowing himself to look foolish.
@@farshnuke Regrettably, he does that most of the time.
Ah, this video should provide another good reason for why there are vastly more planes in the sea than there are submarines in the sky.
“Hello control this is whiskey tango foxtrot”
Nice one John very subtle
The whole second half felt like an episode of the old NetGeo show "Seconds from Disaster".
If man was meant to fly God would have banned Jon from the cockpit
35:17 If you look out of the right side of the plane, you'll see the Republic of Dave.
as someone just about to graduate from a aircraft avionics maintenance program, watching Jon faff about and declare all the buttons in the cockpit useless while failing to comprehend basic instrument function is both hilarious and painful to watch.
This is like the scene where Johnny English navigates his way to hospital by looking at street signs... while flying a HELICOPTER
The noises Jon makes upon landing a plane remind me the breathing of a pregnant woman attempting to deliver a baby
I had on the English auto generated captions and apparently your opening is “Good afternoon, Malaysia. I’m John Cena”
not sure who I would rather have as my pilot. Not sure it would matter really.
@@LiveLNXgaming "Hey ground, U can't C me!"
Seeing Blackbushe airport was pretty awesome! I used to drive past it every day to work, you know in the pre-covid times...
Fun fact: the road alongside the airport, A30, has probably the biggest pothole I've ever driven over, it managed to turn a tiny chip on my windscreen into a crack covering over a third of the screen and make me feel like my spine had gone through the top of my skull. Got to love British roads!
Today, Jon fails to appreciate the gravity of his situation...
Again...
But literally this time...
I'm disappointed they bring up a "you crashed" screen instead of modeling the explosion. It's like they don't know their core demographic or something 😉
They didn't do that in FS2004 or FSX.
I guess flight sims stopped doing that after 9/11
@@PavelD83 Trash people gonna do trash things.
It's a shirt thing for the non trash people when you take something away from them just to keep it away from the garbage ones.
Random fact... many of the planes that delivered mail in the US from the 1920s to 1940s navigated via giant arrows stretching across many US states.
I haven’t laughed this hard since Jon tried his skills at Car Mechanic Simulator
Jon has proven that flying a “better” plane is more difficult than flying a Cessna. Maybe that’s why getting a commercial license, let alone getting hired by an airline, requires at least 250 hours of total flight time...
27:56 *Jon:* _"I believe, either this valley or that valley, might be Delphi."_

You know what Jon, I'm actually impressed, your first landing wasn't a firery wreck! Good on you.
"It's pretty quiet for the busiest airport in the world"
I hate to be that guy, but that's Atlanta, not Heathrow.
I'm not actually 100% on that actually. It is the biggest in the States, and I imagine it beats out Heathrow on domestic flights, not sure how much it out performs Atlanta. It's have to look up actual traffic records, which I don't really want to do
@@nathanielspohn3004 In terms of passenger numbers, Heathrow isn't even in the top 5 (from 2018 numbers)
1. Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (Georgia, US) -- 107.4 million passengers

This was the funniest video you've put out in a while 🤣
I'm very proud to say that I'm sat in my office in the Materials department in Oxford and Jon just flew directly overhead! I couldn't help keeping an ear out for the crash
15:58 - "There's just a bunch of traffic just parked on the M25" ... so just a normal day then? 😜
Installed the enormous thing just so I could check if it had the tiny airport outside the country town I grew up in. It did. Crashed into the shopping center in my maiden flight. Good times.
> is in a plane
> follows the road
Never change, Jon.
Well, this video went as expected.
Remember when flight simulators came with a manual that told you all about flight history, theory, navigation, instrumentation, specifications of the different aircraft and so on?
Congrats Jon, you surpassed my expectation of staring at smouldering wrecks for 40 minutes! Kidding! 😉 Good job! 👍
Lmao I’m at 6:06 and I already know he’s going to run out of fuel lmao 🤣
19:10 "The Problem is not ME."
I and many others probably disagree with that assessment.
As a pilot this was one of the most painful yet entertaining videos to watch yet ! Great work Jon
00:27 it was walpole
My instant reaction to seeing this was "Jon's gonna die." Also good job buzzing Oxford like a madman.
I have been looking forward to this for so long.
I'm amazed how you have zero understanding of how planes work. I truly believe that you believe it's magic. 10/10
Best episode of air crash investigation I’ve ever seen
Never played a flight simulator either, but this one is looking rather good.
