This is perfect timing for this content. In March I knew nothing of airliners or flying, and in celebration of turning 50 I decided to see how much I could learn. I've been using the PMDG planes for a month and watched a ton of Emanuel's videos from when he was called 737NG Driver. I will have questions.
I've been really looking forward to this and the session did not disappoint. Unfortunately I wasn't able to attend live but watching back also allowed me to follow along at my own pace. Thanks guys, see you tomorrow!
54:59 I don’t disagree with anything stated, just want to add that I was taught to sit so that the forward panel is just about within your arm’s reach without having to lean forward and that your eyes are lined up with the slope of the top of the glare shield. The manual uses the term “eye reference position” if you want to go into the weeds there. Also check for free movement of the flight controls.
Stig dhift is a trsl LAX envgineer, mechanic works nights in aircraft. He accidentally hit that switch and reset all the O 2 masks one by one. He just showed a video of it and it certainly impressed upon us the danger of deploying all pax masks at one time. He has never made that error again mind you.
I meant to watch live but forgot... I walk by these beauties here in my town where the 737 is built, Renton Washington. Thanks for this! Oh, and retired from Boeing.
Thank you very much! I am not huge into Airliners, but when I saw this, I had to incorporate this into a 4 week stream. Every Thursday I will be doing 1 of the episodes live on my stream!
57:40 I was told that when your scanning for things, you should go right to left because most English writing and speaking people go left to right and out of habit can overlook things. But if you break that habit and go from right to left, you are more likely to catch something because is not normal so your attention is better. Have you guys heard that? That is what they taught us in Sniper school, so curious if that would apply here?
Thank both of you so very much for taking the time to do all of this at such a fine level of detail! Will you guys do cruise , approach, and landing also?
you'd think Boeing would have colored rocker covers for some items like for Passenger O2, BLUE, not black like flight recorder. Savings penny's I guess
I love this! I did subscribe and got the mail with the takeoff performance documentation. Since I don't have facebook can you include all the documents through the mail? Would love that! ❤
This is a delicate question. I understand the window and rope evacuation requirement, however, I wonder if some of the more geometrically challenged pilots would fit through the window? I am thinking of some of the American pilots I have seen over the years. Is there a specific requirement for this during the medicals? Great instructional video. Thanks.
So 3 pins in the cockpit means landing gear is retractable using the gear handle. If not in the cockpit and inserted in to the landing gear it prevents accidental retraction using the gear handle in the cockpit ?
@@jameschen9099yes, unless MX has used their own set of pins. Some operators use logbook entries to try to prevent this embarrassing situation, and the walk around inspection will also check for the presence of the gear pins.
How does ATC select the transponder code and how do they know that the code given is not being used with another plane in a different region country? Thanks
@13:55 it is stated that the engine driven hydraulic pumps are always on, but it begs the question, when would they need to be off? I figure it must be part of a checklist for some failure?
Do these initial checks require both the Captain and First Officer, like say a landing checklist, where each check is spoken and then checked by the other guy?
In a type-rating sort of course each student or applicant will be responsible for all the knowledge necessary to get the rating, so even if you’re training for the first officer’s seat you still need to know the captain’s seat items. The opposite is also true, imagine an airline captain switching to the 737 from another fleet type. The way the airlines operate, some of these preflight tasks may be split between the two pilots to spread out the workload. Other tasks may be duplicated by each pilot. It’s no problem for one pilot to arrive at the aircraft alone and begin their checks, but in the end two pilots are required to fly it and the necessary checklists will be run together after each has completed their checks/flows.
@@p38cobra pilots like the simplicity of Airbus cockpit and direct connection with the control surfaces of Boeing. In daily flying the mechanical connection allows you to feel the actual distortion on the yoke and counteract it before it blows the plane from your track. Boeing controls are very redundant and you can still fly it after hydraulics failure. Peter have covered both cases of hydraulic outage and you could see how these scenarios developed. I think both steering strategies are equally safe (Boeing more redundant, Airbus more idiot proof), however the pilots tend to prefer the system with less protections and instant feedback in manual handling.
Atrocious sound quality. Voices are distorted. The louder the person speaks, the higher the transmitted volume level, and vice versa. In other words, the audio's dynamic range is set to expand, so loud sounds become much louder than normal, and soft sounds become much softer than normal. Listening to that is not an enjoyable experience! One person speaks with a British accent, the other one with a heavy Swedish accent. The one with Swedish accent has all treble frequencies cut off, so he sounds like he is talking from inside a barrel. The one with British accent has all bass frequencies cut off, and he oscillates between speaking normally and very fast. He speaks according to how he feels at the moment--it doesn't occur to him that somebody may be listening. To what extent the viewers will be able to understand the speech was, obviously, not in the video creators' consideration.
The seat track has the seat slide rearward and then to the outside, leaving a small gap for your legs between the seat and the console. Once seated, you’ll slide back to the inside and forward. This will re-close the gap.
Thank you so much for doing this, as an aspiring pilot it really gives me an in depth look at how the flight deck is run!
Glad you enjoyed it!

I will soon do my sim assessment for an Airline and thanks god this video came out and refreshed my MCC JOC course, well done it’s an amazing job ❤
Wonderful session! Amazing work, Captain Petter and Captain Ben! Thank you for this!

Well, now I can fly the 737. Thanks a lot folks, appreciate it! 😁

Excellent initiative! Thank you very much for this! Looking forward to tomorrow's session. Greetings from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil!
Our pleasure! 💕

Absolutely wonderful teaching. Looking forward to more videos on this.
What an off the wall chat. Thank
you guys.
Thanks for this. I routinely fly the 73 in the sim. Feel pretty proficient at this point, but still picked up a couple little nuggets of information.
Love this type of deep dive. Thank you for this.
Absolutely amazing. Thank very much!
Thanks for taking the time to do this!!

Life size posters of the cockpit are needed for the bedrooms of ten year old future pilots.
So mad I missed this!! Please give us a heads up next time!!
We will continue the next 3 days, same time
Love this video 😍 I love learning how to fly the 737
Great video!
Thank both of you so very much for taking the time to do all of this at such a fine level of detail! Will you guys do cruise , approach, and landing also?
Watching on an iPad. Guess that means I'm type approved on a 737 according to Boeing.
Boeing just got owned!
Congrats! But please, announce the next time please! And by the way, good afternoon from the twelve agers colective
he did, in the community tab of his channel.. 7 days ago
Next time he will write you a personal letter!
Sorry, I didn't notice it

Awesome!
Is this a re-upload of what you did a couple of years ago? I'm getting a strong sense of deja vu!
what are the three bolts with the red tags in the center console aft pocket for ?
Gear pins.
So 3 pins in the cockpit means landing gear is retractable using the gear handle. If not in the cockpit and inserted in to the landing gear it prevents accidental retraction using the gear handle in the cockpit ?

Nice vidio
@13:55 it is stated that the engine driven hydraulic pumps are always on, but it begs the question, when would they need to be off? I figure it must be part of a checklist for some failure?
just curious, what is the typical amperage load with engines running idle, avionics on ?
hi guys - why was the gps 1 and 2 position lightly different? you coppied the gps 1 to irs position...
Do these initial checks require both the Captain and First Officer, like say a landing checklist, where each check is spoken and then checked by the other guy?

Question. Why is the ships library checked while draining the battery in the BELL check?
Here for this
😎 cool
What is the sim used?
I want to learn how to fly my Xbox simulator running Msfs 2020
I paid and nothing received except the payment receipt to my mail!
Send an email to ben@airlinepilotperformance.co.uk

Can Boeing just make 737 fly by wire with same everything else?
Pilots want the opposite of what you said
@@XXXDannyHardXXX so pilots prefer hazards of hydraulics instead of longevity of fly by wire? Not ones I’ve talked to you know, airlines?

In daily flying the mechanical connection allows you to feel the actual distortion on the yoke and counteract it before it blows the plane from your track.

The way aircraft are certified, with such a major change they might as well go clean sheet.
Why doesn’t MCAS have an on-off switch?
Why doesn’t Boeing lengthen landing gear so they can offer NEO like Airbus did?
They did.

Daft question, how do you get in the seat with that huge console in the way?
The seat track has the seat slide rearward and then to the outside, leaving a small gap for your legs between the seat and the console. Once seated, you’ll slide back to the inside and forward. This will re-close the gap.
Does anyone know which simulator is used in this video?
