PMDG DC-6A - IFR Approach Into Nome | Learning the DC-6 #3.5 | MSFS | Engine Out Landing

In this video we continue our practice with the DC-6 with an IFR approach into Nome, Alaska. Low cloud cover means we will be flying the approach with instruments (and, unintentionally, with one engine out!). The theory, procedure and requirements are the exact same as if we were visual with the runway. Do we get it right? Almost, it was a bit bumpy, but any landing you can walk away from is a good landing! Especially with an engine out (as usual my Perception is 0)

#4 Engine was pooched. Perhaps you should of shut it down and feather the prop to reduce drag.

Did you know Engine 4 was dead/dying? Speed decay was shouting out to me. And the displaced ball.

And the nose-up pitch all the way.

Not until the replay, 0 perception. Now that I have a better feel for it and don't have to focus quite so hard on the landing procedure I find its much easier. Definitely if it starts feeling bad the first thing to check are the engines

Great flight, I love this plane, maybe I can get the wife to buy it for as a Christmas present?

set the throttle and leave it. use flaps and gear to vary speed (pitch too of course) your still alive 🤕
