Enjoyed the video . Great job of explaining. Just transitioning from the 172 to the Cirrus in MSFS 2020. Over 30 years since I’ve flown “for real”, and never with a glass cockpit. Steep learning curve for an 80 year old.
Well done-I appreciate your emphasis on getting current. It exudes an urgency for a culture of safety. As a CFII, you did nothing here that would bust a checkride maneuver-wise. It's a sim, so I get the lack of flows and checklist followup. The only question mark I had flying an SR is: flaps 100% @80 before FAF? The SR flight ops manual specifies flaps 50%, kias 100 at intercept until MAP. Again, wouldn't end a checkride, but would generate conversation at debrief.
The only thing I noticed was calling runway in sight when only seeing the runway approach lighting. I wasn’t sure myself so looked it up, the approach lights allow you to descend below minimums to 100ft but doesn’t allow you to land until you see the runway environment. Looks like you were still legal since you saw the runway well before 100ft
Thanks so much, a great help in taming what otherwise seemed to be a homicidal autopilot in MSFS! Now if I could just get ATC not to insist on far too high of an approach...
I don’t even bother with the ATC. Unless I’m on a network talking to a real person it’s gonna be a waste. Those networks are honestly a great tool though. Pilotedge, and even VATSIM are great tools!
Downloaded the asobo version of cirrus sr22 and the engine parameters does not show... even if I increase power the RPM indicator continues in 0. Anybody know how to fix it?
Captain Clayton north up isn’t bad. Only confusing if you’re going south 😂. Honestly don’t know if it can be changed in the G1000 at the moment, and if it can be I don’t know how. There’s a lot the G1000 can do that isn’t in there right now.
Captain Clayton it really is beautiful. There are some bugs for sure at the moment, but even the last patch made a huge improvement for me. Excited to see how it progresses! Hope you enjoy it!

wow, intense, I was really worried. God bless who invented glass cockpit.
I really cannot imagine what it was like back in the early days of aviation.
I love the new flight sim content! Really helpful :)
I’m glad you’re enjoying it and that it’s helpful for you. I’m loving getting back into everything!
Great commentary. Extremely helpful!
Glad it was helpful!

Great tutorial video. Thanks :)

In MSFS G1000 si not shown the pathway? (Rectangular green boxes)
Like a boss!

Great tutorial. How do you get the cart to come up will in Sim 2020?
I did it in editing, had the chart up on my second monitor while flying.
thank you for that tutorial
You’re a north up kind of guy I see 🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢 hahaha. Good content though!

WJL downloading MSFS as we speak. I’m looking forward to it being upgraded! It’s a beautiful sim

WJL thanks!!!
WJL how do I set the hat switch to where it doesn’t snap 90 degrees. I want to be able to freelook up down left right
