I love this video, it is super helpful and provides a great "handy dandy" challenge to "choo-choo" along with. Please keep them coming along with your signature style which is delightful. Thank You.
Love this airplane & your tutorials. I "co-piloted" these with a CFI a few years ago and the use of the inertial separator was important when landing on grass/gravel, not sure if it is modelled in MSSFS?
Dont know if you guys cares but if you are bored like me atm you can stream pretty much all of the new series on instaflixxer. I've been streaming with my girlfriend for the last few months :)
Dumb question: how is an rnav approach a challenge? The AP follows the GPS right? I know VOR flying is difficult because you need to think about freqs etc.
Why does MSFS keep returning the pilot to the "9-year-old" view, looking at the edge of the glareshield? Seems you keep having to jack the seat up to see the nose. I have seen this before in other vids. What the fix for a stable seat height pls?
Think you should use the inertial separator when landing on grass fields. But what about the fuel economy? Everyone says it burns too much (not just this one (DA62) if you do as you do with full power), where do you find economy cruise speed and such?
Ditto on the Inertial Separator. I came to ask if there is a reason it wasn't mentioned. Maybe I've been overdoing it, but I have been using it for ALL takeoffs and landings. I usually run it in conjunction with my flaps so I don't forget to activate and deactivate it. It can keep gravel from getting sucked into the turbine, but I've also read that it can help in the event that a bird gets sucked into the inlet.
I believe your referencing "sim rate" try searching for "increase sim rate" don't forget to also do the same for "decrease" handy for quickly traversing on auto pilot 👍
LOL - of course you are. VFR clearance rules over sparsely populated areas are very liberal. You should see how close glider pilots get to the mountains when ridge flying.
That push back on a running engine Caravan is one of the most ridiculous thing I've ever saw in flight simulation! Other important procedure totally forgotten: before engine start in EVERY airplane is necessary to apply PARKING BRAKES!!!!

The "mixture" lever in the 208 it's actually the condition lever, it's mislabeled in the sim...
It's mislabeled in the balloons but correct in the pedestal.
VR seems to be coming on the 23rd of Dec. Can't wait!!!!
Glad to see this, the update totally changed the way this flies
Merry Christmas to you and your family. Thank you for the enjoyment and learning I get from your videos!

I like to think of the caravan as a flying passenger van.

@Dominick Ty Definitely, been using InstaFlixxer for months myself =)
"Reminds me of Middle Earth for some reason, not quite sure why" lol
Abundance of hobbits?
I love flying this plane into grass strips in PNG. What C-208 mod are you using ? Thanks for the video.
ahhh follow Missonary Pilot in PNG
Great stuff! Could you do a video about what to think about when flying non pressurized aircraft? Climb rate, descent rate etc.
I seconds this, it would be good to know safe speeds and I like the reference to passengers during the videos 👍
That airstrip was enormous, lol

Sure hope they add floats to this one day.
Yes, yes and more yes!

You can change the default camera height in the simulator camera settings
space bar
You can set custom views for each plane with cntr-alt-number1-10... Pull them up with alt-number1-10.. They save for each plane.
perfect place to land the fenix Airbus a320 or the pmdg Boeing 737.
They finally fixed the C 208 in the Sim well better than it used to be.

how did you velocity/path indicator??? You said you had mods, what mods were those?
which mods are you running?
great videos! Hey, I loaded the C208B Mod and now my entire cabin is invisible!! No panel instruments...nada. Any ideas?
So... parking brake released and the aircraft won't move. Am I bugged or did I forget something?
Great video, thanks! How did you setup sound ducking so that the plane noise doesn’t drown out your voice?
I figured out audio ducking in OBS by using the compression filter 😊
Curious about the mods you're using, as well as the reason for avoiding use of the yaw damper?
Yaw damper doesn't work in the Cessna 208.
I believe he's using the working title G1000 mod. You can look up working title on github.
Please explain your set up for the reverser using a throttle throttle
Where do you find the time acceleration feature to bind it, I can not find it anywhere?

Are you allowed to fly that close to the mountain IRL? if yes that is nerve racking

Eh! Yeah little aggressive on startup, ha. Gotta wait for video procedures and processes to engage and than go flying...
@@greenthumb6875 I will keep all my comments...
Great video (can you talk a little slower!)
They call New Zealand "Middle Earth" because that is where Tolkein's "Lord of the Rings" was filmed.
REEEEAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLYYYYYYYYYYYYYY?
