Real 747 Pilot Crashes In MFS 2020 Landing Challenge

I wanted to try out the Microsoft 2020 Flight Sim and a friend recommended I try the landing challenges so this is my first few attempts landing at JFK in New York while playing FS2020

"This is your Captain speaking. I didn't get enough points for that landing, so we will be taking off and trying again."

[dimitristripakis]

"I can do it, I swear"
Imagine hearing those words coming from the cockpit !

[MentalParadox]

"When in doubt, throw the gear out."
"If you're not clacking, you're slacking."
*furiously writing that all down*

[Jack]

"This is your captain speaking, I need a million point landing to win a bet, so we're gonna land this thing like it's a F-16" lol

"This is your captain speaking, today I will be working from home"

It's easier for a flight simmer to get used to a plane than a real life pilot to get used to the flight sim

[Hugothester]

The 747 behaves like a Cessna in FS2020, it can take off at 90kts, so no wonder you could not keep it on the ground at 120kts, it was not your fault, the plane is super bugged xD

[mojogrip]

You can tell a 747 pilot when he thinks 160 Kts is kinda slow. That's sky high for us single engine pilots.

Love the little full body movement he does while he’s landing. The instinctual movement as if moving in his chair was going to move this simulator plane is neat to me.

I'm a Cessna pilot, but I've been trying my hand at the 747-8 on MFS, with disastrous results. I even spent a few hours with an airline pilot with 14000 hours, who set up the LOC and ILS and still repeatedly crashed it as well. Then, after several attempts, I finally landed it at Frankfurt. The secret, forget the instruments. Land it like a Cessna.

Next time 74 Gear lands a plane smoothly in real life : "This one is worth one million points in MFS for sure"

14:20 Flight attendant : Captain, Everybody is throwing up at the back of the plane !!!
Kelsey: THIS IS AWESOME ..

[fuguzawaz]

im a flight student, and a couple of my friends in the flight program got together one time and we all tried to take off and land a 747 in microsoft flight sim 2020. we all took off barely, but the challenge was to land the jet on our runway. were all at different levels, but i think it would be really fun to see someone who knows what he is doing to try it. ironically, our friend who has had the least flight experience got the closest. it was a great time. we appreciate youre videos!

[tommiesmith]

Attendant:" People are throwing up in the back!
Kelsey:" THERE'S NO WAY!!!

[axelfoley]

Kelsey: "You can't bounce a 747 like that."
Me: *assumes Kesley speaks from experience* ;-)

Kelsey: “In the simulator they’re always writing stuff down and I feel judged”
The company sim instructor: *writing* “Holy shit I’ve watched all of this guy’s videos, he’s so cool”

[soulman]

Kelsey getting so mad at the bounce was some GOLD. I would love to have him as a pilot on a long haul flight.
