Mastering RNAV Approach | In-Depth Tutorial | Miami international airport / KMIA

Join us in Miami / MIA /KMIA as we explore the RNAV Approach, a GPS-coordinated area navigation technique.
In this video I'll give you an in-depth tutorial on how to fly an RNAV Approach.
We are going to start with how to input all the information in the FMS (Flight Management System) and then move on to how to fly the airplane along the waypoints to the final approach with the Auto Pilot.
At minimum we'll take over the controls and land the plane safely at Miami international airport on RWY 09.
We'll go over all the fine detail that you'll need to fly a RNAV approach on your own.
Throughout the flight, you'll gain a comprehensive understanding of the various checklists and procedures involved. From monitoring instruments and systems to managing the aircraft's performance.

For this video we went back in the Airbus A320 full flight simulator to show you how it's done in the Cockpit.
As an Airbus A330 Pilot I must say this simulator really works and feels like the real deal.

Pascal thank you for the RNAV video, it was realy helping me in MSFS 2020 during my daily flight in A320 NX (FlyByWire). I was certified IPPL and R/T during the 80's of the last century at EBAW where I was trained on the Cessna 152 and 172. When I retired from my position as a nurse anethetist, my collegues treated me on a flightlesson on a C172, I did not fly during 30 years but I was able to keep the plane in the air on a reasonable way. Since I got MSFS 2020 I have trained myself in IFR in which various videos from Youtube have been very helpfull. Looking forward to your upcoming videos. Greetz George from the Netherlands.

Thank you for making a personal tutorial video. It was great to see you demonstrating as if I were there in the cockpit with you. A lot of other chanels are simply the home simulator set ups, so it was great to see something different this time.

Thanks Pascal for this wonderful video it was very useful and I learnt a lot from watching this video and also I love the sim videos they are very entertaining keep up the hard work. ❤🙌✈️👍

I programmed the approach into foreflight and rwy 09 was active as I watched this video and, in foreflight, saw several flights fly it. Virtual fun!

You hand 320simpilot have both helped me master the A320-A330 series, hats off to you Pascal 👏 Thank you very much!

[mordechai_ben_gershon]

Thankyou, really interesting! It does make sense that the RNAV/GPS approaches will be the predominant approach type in the future for airliner RPT, as GPS has revolutionised mapping and route navigation in general. I didn't quite understand the constraints (and quite a bit more!), but learned that RNAV & ILS are almost the same thing. Eventually airlines may allow fully-automated landings with the use of autothrust and autopilot; airliners have certainly been capable of it for a long time!

Very well explained, I'm new to MSFS and was looking exactly for this kind of info that you covered in here. ❤❤❤

[dimitri-FAEX]

What an awesome video, finally learned how to fly an RNAV!

[robertjones]

Awesome job! Thank you for this information.

[saschapeischl]

Rnav approach hör ich zum ersten Mal. Wirklich sehr interessant und wirklich sehr gut erklärt von dir 😊

[food]

Vielen Dank Pascal! Really such an interesting and awesome video again! 🤩😍👍🏼✈️😊

[lucaslessing]

Thanks Pascal, always interesting, well done 🙌👍✈️

As far as I’m aware, for a RNP app you can only arm the approach (FINAL APP) once the FAF is the next To waypoint OR if the distance between the IF and FAF is <2nm you can arm the approach if you have the blue descent arrow on the FAF and you’re established on the FAT

Subscribed, thanks a lot for the video. Cheers

[MrPhil]

Thanks for a very good explanation video, Pascal. Very good walkthrough. One question though: the FDP
must also be the “to-waypoint” on top right of the ND, before you can press the APPR pb. Correct?

Thanks for your answer 🙂

[smilemore]

Thank you, awesome work, more videos like this ✈

[Manuel-okjh]

Hope to see you soon performing the new GLS/GBAS app down to MDPC

that “bawo” was the most german thing i’ve heard in my life 2:28

Simulating at home RNAV APPR, Why should I set every waypoint during descent to APPR FAF? In fact I can fly with AP all the way setting ALT to FAF FIX and let AP continue with 3º after APPR activated until short before minimum, then landing manually.. (under AT on or off?) - correct? And thanks for tutorial ..

Hey, that's my home town. I feel for your guys and the difficulty pronouncing some of those waypoint names. I'll help you with this one. BNFSH: bonefish; FENDE: Fendi, GUCCI: Gucci, PRCHE: Porche, DAHLA: dolla; BILLZ: bills. Dollar bills? Get it? Because all these brands are so expensive lol? Yeah, the FAA loves doing these things lol.
