FS2020 - Boeing 747 Manual FMS Tutorial

In this video, we go through the process of manually setting the FMS up in the Boeing 747 in MS FS2020. Some work with the MCP is covered as well as how to deal with in flight changes.

I love how the jet bridge is going through your aircraft at the beginning :)

Love it, notice the gear is down and probably the reason for different v ref speeds .

super helpful video, you literally put everything i was looking for in one video. Thanks man!

I have stopped bothering flying the default airplanes. They are bugge like hell, you never know when the next flaw hits. Totally insane.

[javianjohnson]

Thank you for this explanation! Very detailed and east to follow

Great video! I was able to watch and then execute a pretty (ok mostly!) crash free flight from KLAX to KSFO using United 1550 flight plan! Great job, keep them coming!

Please do the a320 fbw version. This is amazing!

[aniruddhapaturkar]

Thanks, that really helped me at getting started with the FMS!

On my version of MSFS 2020 they have recently updated. There are many new fields that can be populated. Any chance of updating your video?

I just make the flight plan in game use the ifr flight planner use the auto assits until it starts asking me to expedite flight climb to a certain altitude then I just disengage assist mode engage manual auto pilot to obtain the atcs desired altitude until I reach my destination at that point I just wait until the approach point where I just engage the assits again until the last 500 ft to touch down works everytime 150 hrs in 4 days 😀

I'm coming after I land, mom!!





This is going to take another 20 minutes, mom!!

[michaelfulton]

There has been an update! Can you please do another video. You explain everything pretty well!

[ReefAndReptileAutomation]

On the auto take off you did. I notice you set the speed to V2. If you do not engage AP how does the auto throttle work with take off? I noticed once you hit AP the VNAV speed took over? Can you explain that a little bit. Thank you! Keep these videos coming!

I appreciate your youtube videos much. Don't forget to explain the Dreamliner in detail too.

I get "2nd index not valid" when trying to punch in the waypoint after an airway, I got the route from simbrief so it should be good. Any tips?

[vityok]

while you change your altitude in FL CH mode you need to set spoilers at detent position to descend quickly without gaining speed and disconnecting auto throttle

GREAT video - well done and much appreciated.

[alexandrenigg]

Many thanks. Your tips have been very useful.

Regarding the mach / knots bug if you bind an input to 'set AP managed speed in Mach off' it's possible to switch back, at least in the A320 Neo.

Interesting, so the PAPI lights don't look like they're programmed for the three white when on glideslope.

So here's a question, not sure of this is a glitch inside of the current build or whatnot(also have no idea what I'm doing, so there's that) : my flight will not automatically lower from Cruise Altitude, and the DECEL waypoint seems WAY TOO close to the airport if it was going to. Seems like I need to set a gentle decent as a manual intervention a few waypoints before DECEL just to get maybe low enough for the Approach.
