Basic flight planning and autopilot operation in the Cirrus Vision Jet in Microsoft Flight Simulator

A quick flight showing basic use of the flight management computer to program a flight, and then fly it using the autopilot in the Cirrus Vision Jet in Microsoft Flight Simulator. Along the way we talk about GPS navigation, VOR navigation, FLC (flight level change), VS (vertical speed mode), auto throttle, and finally do an ILS approach - capturing the glideslope in AP (approach) mode, and then taking over during finals for a manual landing.

I was lucky enough to be a passenger in a vision jet, the pilot was quite impressed when I was asking questions, he actually asked if I have my ppl, I chuckled and said only in msfs 2020. Great vid.

Ive just bought the Vision Jet having started to move from steam gauges to glass so this video was perfect for me. I found this concise, thorough and very easy to follow. Thank you for your work

[dagwood]

I typed in "MSFS Vision Jet Autopilot" in the YouTube search bar and yours was the first video listed. After watching your excellent and informative tutorial, no need to watch any others! You have a new subscriber to your excellent channel. Looking forward to more useful content. Best of the Holidays to you and your family...🎄

Thanks for a very helpful and informative video! The Vision Jet is one of my favorites in the sim, and your instruction has given me confidence to use all the bells and whistles!

This video has made me buy the jet behind my wife’s back so I’m going to be in trouble in the next few days/hours. I hope you’re proud! Thank you so much though because I love it. I never knew about the little nav map so have just spent the last few hours messing with that. I’ve not watched the full video and learnt so much. Will be coming back to watch more of this and your other content soon. Easy decision to sub. Thank you again!

Very informative, really nice to understand on how to navigate on vor and gps

[GoldWinger]

You’ve done it again Jonathan! I appreciate how you respond to subscriber requests. Thank you for this. I was looking forward to it.

I have saved this licketty split for later use, and at my leisure to follow the tips one after the other. Thanks Jon because but for your intervention this would've been another aircraft bought and immediately mothballed away in my hanger. With your videos, I intend to revisit all of them (eg the Boeing 247, the Honda Jet and the Bae) and to enhance my proficiency with even the ones im flying more frequently. Once again, much thanks.

I have been slowly building my knowledge of the auto pilot in this plane, and have watched several YouTube videos by others. This is by far the best video on the subject that I have seen, packed with so much useful information and demonstrated so well by showing the plane’s position on the map view.
As a sort of bonus it covered the auto throttle as well plus lots of additional tips on flying the Vision Jet. I have made extensive notes. Thanks very much Jonathan.

Your videos are so helpful and I love the way you explain everything. Thank you so much!

[nigelsmith]

First class.
Great video - crystal clear tuition. Thanks.

[DDheliservice]

I'm so glad you made this tutorial of my favorite airplane. The way you explain everything is so pleasant to watch. Every time I learn new things from you that make the flight sim so enjoyable. Many thanks for this and I look forward to seeing what possibilities there are still with this aircraft such as ILS approach landings, etc. I am so glad I found your channel, the best there is!

[garethbritton]

Great Video! Just what I needed to help me understand how to use the SF50 avionics properly.

[unlimitedbagels]

Great guide thank you! This aircraft is perfect for taking in sights and I think I’ll use it for community flying events.

[fmaples]

Thanks for a great video. You've just made the easiest tutorial on the Vision jet's nav system I've come across. Because of this you have a new subscriber. Looking forward to more.

[richritter]

Great video! I love this plane and you've helped tremendously. Later today I will try doing an ILS landing into L.A. from Las Vegas! Thanks mate!

[GumperVanLier]

Another excellent video and near perfect landing.

[Blairvoyach]

Wow, you are certainly pushing out the content and nearing the 10, 000 subscriber mark! Well deserved too. Love the Vision jet, my current favourite. Any chance you can do an in depth tutorial on using Vnav and procedures too?
