"i'm gonna keep this brief" proceeds to record & upload 50 + minute video.

[Nasrul]

you know you're a long-form video enjoyer when you consider a 50- minute video "brief" and i'm all here for it!

[speedbird]

Do I fly long haul? No.

Will I buy this? Yes.

[jimmyx]

just flew on a 777 a couple times this month and the engines are really amazing. feels like nothing else on takeoff.

World Traveller is economy on BA. Those seats in Business are called Club Suite, the next gen version of Club World. PMDG simply didn’t update the screens for the different classes

[Wellthatsjustcheese]

from the bottom of my heart, thank you Squirrel. You're the only AVgeek content maker that offers transparent, inspirational videos with humility, not bragging about being a pro pilot or whatnots. It's truly refreshing, your content is spectacular, keep up the good work!

[wmwho]

PMDG are legends. I cannot estimate how many hours I spent with their 747 and 737. This should be an incredible aircraft.

"At the engine start I will not talk so you guys can hear the engine" then proceeds to talk nonstop 😅

[ronsmith]

Really looking forward to this... I have thousands of hours logged in the various PMDG 737's over the past 15 or so years... Started in FS9, then FSX/P3D now MSFS.

I think the reason you didn't get the glide is because you have to intercept the localiser first. I think it is an option in the settings. The AP won't let you intercept the glide before the LOC.

[MaxRank]

The T7 requires LOC capture first then APP. Your profile was too high to capture from above hence no G/S. Arming the LOC before the turn onto final would have intercepted it perfectly and then engage the APP. Great video can’t wait to fly this thing

[danotake]

You can "default" the settings that aren't options in the menu system by saving a state. So basically you will turn the knob and then save the state of the plane as it is cold dark.

4:37 world traveller is economy, that’s probs just a screen they display on all of them for simplicity, I’m guessing you might’ve flown world traveller, club world is business

[personthatexists]

The flight directors blend in really well in the PFD

[anbrod]

So much looking forward to this plane!! Been a very long wait!!!!

[conlethbyrne]

Love this ship.Throughly enjoyed the video haven't heard from you in a while, Squirrel Lovely landing like butter. Slainte ❤

[coriscotupi]

Nice, informative video, and a pleasure to watch as usual with your videos.
...What happened at 42:10? Sounded like a few galley trolleys were knocked down back there. 🙂

[martynbrinton]

Nice to see that my BATC copilot @squirrel has spread his wings 😂

[EasyPCUK]

Great video Squirrel! When you struggled to capture the ILS there’s a couple of reasons. Firstly you should have armed VOR LOC as you were on the base turning final as the LNAV route took you through the localiser and took too long to get you back into it. Secondly because that took so long, you reached the set 2500 MCP altitude before you captured the glide so it stopped descending at that stage as it’ll never capture the glide before the localiser

[Norshuttle]

Very excited, but cant stop thikning about the fact that I will now buy the 777 for the 3rd time, already owning it in FSX and P3D. Doesnt matter though, it looks incredible.
