I've spent countless hours watching other tutorials over the last several months, and this series is one of the best! Extremely helpful. Please continue!
Your videos are FANTASTIC. Please please keep them coming. I love how you're going through similar things on multiple planes. I'm learning a ton from them and am able to replicate what you're showing us. Your level of detail is perfect. Hope you hit one of the jets so we can see the differences in autopilot configuration on them too!
I really love watching your videos, but you may want to consider slowing down a bit. For me as a beginner it’s hard to follow everything even if I pause many times. I always miss some steps. So much information. It’s like taking a drink from a fire hydrant :)
If you try it in game, then go back to the start of these videos and watch until the point where you got confused in game, it makes it much easier to put the steps together in your head. Dont try to memorize the entire process, just try it in game to see how far you remember until you fail and it will help you understand the theory of it more than just memorizing. I felt the same way with "holy crap this is complicated" but breaking it into sections helped.
These are simply the best tutorials! There's something about your videos that is very calming. One thing I have to say is that I don't necessarily agree the g36 is a good step up if someone was just flying 172's in the game. Have to worry about gear and prop feathering which makes things a hell of a lot more complicated while trying to learn IFR
Hi P., love your series of videos. They are complete and seem quite exact to the real thing which is how I like to operate simulated aircraft systems wise. Keep them coming !
Very very good tutorial. I look forward to your next releases. I’m on holiday and can’t wait to get home to unpack my amazon packages and fly. Your tutorials have giving me a really good understanding of Nav and Com and instruments. Love the humour too, makes easy listening.
in FS2020 on map view - set your filters to have the bottom three items ‘on’ - then you can click on airfields with ILS beacons and it’ll show you the frequency needed. Just in case you don’t want to google the charts (although that is fun too)
That weird "USER" point in the approach including that strange path is SO annoying. And I also happened to delete the whole flight plan which seems to happen whenever you press CLR on one of the two entries that are part of the active leg (purple arrow). So annoying...
G1000 systems can be very confusing. You could try sitting in the aircraft on the ground and just playing around with the buttons. That could help you for most of the buttons on the bottom of the screen. Another tip to help you out is to remember that both screens are essentially the same. Aside from the autopilot, there are two sets of each button. So that cuts the amount of buttons by half.
I had issues getting these frequencies for the Localiser but i found they are actually in game! you can turn them on in the filters for navaids and look at the runway you're planning on landing at and you can see the little icon it'll tell you what it is and the frequency info if you select it!
Yeah, but that works only in the World Map view. Consider the scenario that the wind direction changes and you'll have to use another runway. Never forget your approach plates, no matter how good the preparation.
These 3 have been a great series. Look forward to more at which time perhaps you can address the question of OBS mode on the G1000 which worked as expected in FSX, but is nowhere to be found in 2020?
If you are using ATC on an IFR flight plan but dont choose a runway on either takeoff or landing...will they vector you into SIDs/STARs at the larger airports or do they vector you into a made up route that the computer picks?
Fantastic video, I will reproduce the exact same flight just for me to learn & practise. One question though: at 22:20 you say "make sure your barometric pressure is set correctly". I'm so far as understanding this is the QNH / real pressure instead of the standardized 29.92 for flight levels. But how do you know the QNH and how do you set it in FS2020?
Yeah, I think the $100 hamburger has probably become the $300 hamburger. Unfortunately (or fortunately depending on your perspective), I'll probably be limited to simulated flying from here out.
did you previously have the 3000ft altitude set so it triggered when you turned on AP? Had some issues on the Cessna 172 today where I had VS turned off and only wanted to use AP for heading hold, but it kept trying to change altitude and absolutely mess up my trim. Maybe a bug but it was weird
As someone who is trying to learn autopilot functions for the first time ever, it's really frustrating wondering if i'm doing something wrong or its just a bug or a feature that hasn't been implemented yet.
kmb519 it is totally bugged right now. You see a lot of them in the video. And the video creator shows workarounds. Imagine this all happens in a crowded airspace in real life. 😱
rnedisc really? :) for example when he selected the approach, it added a user waypoint... and to avoid, that the autopilot becomes crazy, he had to change to heading mode. The flightplan in some situations becomes deleted, when adding a waypoint. Approaches and runways are often not available... the flight director oftennshows wrong flightpath when autopilot is not on.... etc etc etc etc etc
Hi, congrats, your tutorials are great. I have several questions, is it possible to setup a fp midair? Or add waypoints? Or setup a direct to and then select procedures? I am unable to do it and a video on how to proceed would be very interesting for me. Thx
Anyone know if there;s an option to set the brightness of the G3000 in the TBM 930?! It gets blindingly bright during night flights, and extremely difficult to read.
you make great tutorials but i dont understand what you mean about not touching the GPS on the ground for fear of engaging the autpilot. I thought everything should be programmed before flight.
So there is no way of finding ILS frequencies from what the G1000 offers aside from 3rd party charts? (Besides from the auto setups off of menu flight planning).
If you use the PROC button and arm or activate the approach it puts it in your nav radio automatically. I’m not sure if there’s a way to just look up the frequencies yourself in the game. Granted, it is a simulation game so it assumes you either have fore flight or paper charts for the airports you’re going to. Paper charts are cheap if I remember correctly, and it’s not like you’re flying for real so the currency of them doesn’t matter. Foreflight on the other hand is expensive but you can look up any airport whereas paper charts are only for certain areas of the US.
Check the flight plan in Part 1. Take a look at the "ILS or LOC RWY 5" page. Bottom left, "FAF to MAP". At 90 kts, you get to the Missed Approach Point in 3 minutes 48 seconds.
I use the exactly the same setting as the tutorial metioned, but the default CRS angle is totally different which is 15 degrees. And the CRS setting is unchangable in the GPS mode. What's the problem?
Luke Fan i also try to make the settings EXACTLY the same, but somehow every time there are differences and I can’t figure out why. That’s why I said it would help if everything was said just a bit slower
Make sure your NAV radio is on the correct ILS frequency for that runway, then when you are lined up you can press the APR button to automatically capture the glide slope. Also, make sure you cycle through with the CDI button to select the green LOC line.
Part 3 of 2? What am I missing here? Not sure I want instruction from someone whose grasp of math is suspect. Actually, thank you for this video. Some of it is above my comprehension as I am new to flight sims altogether and therefore new to MSFS. S I am glad to have the resource and your knowledge.
@@tashleybar yeah decrease throttle and it'll depend and hold the set altitude. Took me a while to learn this too! Obviously you don't need to do that on planes with AUTO THROTTLE
Using Skyvector you can pull up the airport diag. on the bottom left it will give a list of speed in knots/ min:sec (example 90 knots=3:48, 150 knots=2:17)
On the approach plate, it will give you different times from Final Approach Fix to Missed Approach Point depending on your ground speed. ILS approaches don't usually have times though, as your missed approach point is reached when you hit your Decision Altitude
@@dreaminginfraviolet Pretty acknowledged by whom? The usual trolls and haters? You're claiming it is broken(!) right below a video that proves the opposite. And so far you couldn't tell me at least one specific bug! Nice try, troll!
I've spent countless hours watching other tutorials over the last several months, and this series is one of the best! Extremely helpful. Please continue!

Your in-depth tutorials are the best around. Keep up.
Best flight sim content on the web imo. I love this channel. You'd be a great CFI if you aren't one already.

Great work as always. I hope this series “... of 2” will continue ;)

ALT + L, your tiny flashlight, if you didn't know :)
7:36 - flying in a death trap is fun to do! lol...
Great videos. Keep them coming.
Man, you are hilarious and really informative! Kudos from Russia!!!
good video's once again helps out with some stuff looking forward to more. Also you do have a flashlight in the game. ALT + L
Oh man, tha instrument tutorials sounds AMAZING! Can't wait. (Yes, suscribed and belled)
Awesome. Loved it, had me stressing so hard when the runway hadn’t showed its face yet.
That weird "USER" point in the approach including that strange path is SO annoying. And I also happened to delete the whole flight plan which seems to happen whenever you press CLR on one of the two entries that are part of the active leg (purple arrow). So annoying...
That was so good. Nicely done. Thanks.
Love your tutorials
God i love your personality haha awesome video
like your vids, love to see ifr in the tbm 930
Great style - liked & subscribed!
Nice series, thanks!
Good stuff, thanks man! I would definitely appreciate some more in-depth tutorials for the glass cockpit avionics in this new sim. So many buttons...

441 and 1 like/dislike. I was 441; good video. Your description was very clear, and Skyvector helps a lot.
That was very helpful. Thanks a lot.
Awesome. Keep them coming.
I love your vids! I’d really like one covering the A320 and it’s associated controls / autopilot if your able to :)
Awesome job!

Yeah, but that works only in the World Map view. Consider the scenario that the wind direction changes and you'll have to use another runway. Never forget your approach plates, no matter how good the preparation.
Depending on the aircraft, you can get a list of NDB and VOR frequencies using one of the flight displays in the plane!
Part 3 of 2? Bonus!!
Thank youuuuuuuuu! Great tutorial
These 3 have been a great series. Look forward to more at which time perhaps you can address the question of OBS mode on the G1000 which worked as expected in FSX, but is nowhere to be found in 2020?

You can tune to airport's ATIS, or ATC will tell you in the landing clearance. To set it, find the BARO knob, or just press B on your keyboard.
@@eKalb33 super, thanks!
You heard my pain. Thanks!
For some reason my G1000 is missing the knob to select the altitude lol. Great video, subscribed!
Mine Too - I thought i was going bonkers or something !!
Didn't know about the keyboard binding, thank you! And yes I just noticed it is indeed the Bonanza he's using.
Helpful! Been doing a lot of flights and I find this a little confusing at times.

Great „Workaround Tutorial“ for this currently, crazy buggy G1000. Hope MS will put some efforts to fix those whole stuff in the near future.
It feels like a Carenado G1000 🤣

It is possible now (8/19/2021) at least with the Garmin G1000. Did you discover how to do it since your question?
Love your videos! How did you use the keyboard to enter the way point in direct to?
I think no keyboard is used for it. Just by mouse (wheel) is my guess.
18:41 yes yes question was where to get them. if forget charts and try land.what to do? ofcourse you get them from fancy G1000 its that awesome

you make great tutorials but i dont understand what you mean about not touching the GPS on the ground for fear of engaging the autpilot. I thought everything should be programmed before flight.
I think there's a flashlight option in MSFS2020, you need to check the key bindings.

I must've missed something since I'm a total noob but where did you get 3:48 time from?
Check the flight plan in Part 1. Take a look at the "ILS or LOC RWY 5" page. Bottom left, "FAF to MAP". At 90 kts, you get to the Missed Approach Point in 3 minutes 48 seconds.
@@lucas1berti Thanks!
why is there no OBS function on the g1000 in flight sim?
I use the exactly the same setting as the tutorial metioned, but the default CRS angle is totally different which is 15 degrees. And the CRS setting is unchangable in the GPS mode. What's the problem?
Luke Fan i also try to make the settings EXACTLY the same, but somehow every time there are differences and I can’t figure out why. That’s why I said it would help if everything was said just a bit slower
I heard that 3 out of 2 pilots are dyslexic, guess the rumors were true!
How do you make the plan switch to GS mode, will it do that automatically when you are close enough?
Make sure your NAV radio is on the correct ILS frequency for that runway, then when you are lined up you can press the APR button to automatically capture the glide slope. Also, make sure you cycle through with the CDI button to select the green LOC line.
I think alt+L is flashlight
the Approach procedure is not availiable if you setup the flightplan during flight?
it is available, he just deleted too many waypoints from the approach and it removed the whole approach automatically
45 degree angle of bank in a climbing turn... whoops!
Part 3 of 2? What am I missing here? Not sure I want instruction from someone whose grasp of math is suspect. Actually, thank you for this video. Some of it is above my comprehension as I am new to flight sims altogether and therefore new to MSFS. S I am glad to have the resource and your knowledge.
With decent FLC never works for me, I have to always use VS, FLC only works with climbing. Pretty sure it’s a bug.
Seems to work fine for me, bare in mind it's trying to maintain a speed so you need to decrease your throttle to allow it to descend.
@@tashleybar yeah decrease throttle and it'll depend and hold the set altitude. Took me a while to learn this too! Obviously you don't need to do that on planes with AUTO THROTTLE
Is Chris Henson flying planes now?
You’re in a Bonanza. Not a Baron.
how do you calculate the for your final approach. the 3 minute timer you set up
yeah id like to know too. I've no idea where the 3 minutes came from
Using Skyvector you can pull up the airport diag. on the bottom left it will give a list of speed in knots/ min:sec (example 90 knots=3:48, 150 knots=2:17)

Really really looking forward to part 4 of 2...gonna be great like all previous ten videos.
It's Bonanza, not Baron
This sim has a flashlight! Alt + L will turn it on.
Part 3 of 2 sounds about as buggy as the G1000 in the game 😅
What bugs?
@Tgorolf It doesn't work very well, especially the autopilot. Hopefully they'll fix it soon!
@@dreaminginfraviolet Works perfectly fine for me, including the AP.
That's strange, it's pretty acknowledged that the G1000 is broken, it's on the list of known issues by Microsoft.
@@dreaminginfraviolet Pretty acknowledged by whom? The usual trolls and haters? You're claiming it is broken(!) right below a video that proves the opposite. And so far you couldn't tell me at least one specific bug! Nice try, troll!
