747-200 Civa INS Navigation Tutorial | Felis 742
Comprehensive beginners guide to the CIVA INS (Inertial Nav System) found aboard Felis's B747-200 "the classic" in XP12.
The video will cover:
- What the Civa INS does
- What Coordinate System Does INS Use?
- Where to get Civa INS Flight Plans from
- Starting up the 747-200 Civa INS
- Aligning the Civa Navigation System
- Choosing Suitable Waypoints for the CIVA
- Entering our Route Into the INS
- Departing in RADIO mode
- When to Switch to INS mode
- Autopilot Civa INS navigation
- When to switch back to Radio mode
- Final Approach
Note: This video assumes you know the basics on the aircraft, and some flying / navigation 101, like how to tune in a VOR beacon. While it includes Navigraph for some of it - this is not required, you can use free alternatives like chartfox.
To do this flight, we will include a short flight from Baltimore - JFK using a suitable flight plan for our aircraft type. We will touch on performance based navigation - but it is not essential to understand this, beyond the fact that "older navigation = not as good" and that other people (for example ATC, or Vatsim controllers) will be aware of this.

Hello, how are you? I just wanted to ask for your help. It's been days since I bought the felis 747200 for x plane 11 but I don't know why every time I take off the plane and raise the landing gear, the hyd 4 qty falls and lowers itself, do you know why? I need your help thank you very much
Thank you for this wonderful tutorial. Very interesting topic, plane but the most important thing, you explain very good.
Great tutorial, I’ll be using it as I’ve yet to make a successful CIVA flight.
I always take-off straight into a 20kt tailwind when I feel the need for speed.
40:00 that's a thumbwheel switch
