MSFS - Instrument descent without vertical guidance (AH IFR Quick Look #2)

Ойындар

Hello flight simmers, and welcome back to Alpha Hotel Flight Simulator Training.
In this video, we'll look at how to descend on instrument approaches that don't provide any sort of vertical guidance. We'll talk about the two techniques you can use, and do an-depth look at how to conduct the second technique - a Continuous Descent Final Approach or CDFA.

    Thank you! I’ll watch this video later as soon as I learn to virtually fly with your other lessons! 😊

    Good idea, gooodoldgavens. Get your VFR skills sharp, and then move on to instrument flying!

    You are a machine man! Thanks for the videos. I never attempted the instrument training in real life but always wanted to if and when I hit the lottery. Never hit the lottery though. Go figure. I sold my plane and started really getting into my sim. I am trying to teach myself how to fly on instruments and thanks to your fantastic videos I might just be able to. Are you an actual CFI? If not you should be. Anyway thanks for all the info.

    Glad you're enjoying the content & finding it so helpful @BennyLandron60. There are a few quirks to the sim that make it slightly different than flying approaches in real life - but it is certainly a good way to get familiar with instrument procedures. I am a CFI-I/MEI and AGI, but I haven't taught IRL in many years.

    Thank you @AlphaHotel... you are helping me very much. I am a new student pilot and I use your videos for flight sim knowledge. I use MSFS on xbox series s and I want you to help me this way: I saw you are using maps/charts that I never see in the sim on xbox. Plz let me know how I can get those maps to use in flight. I have a laptop and a tablet as well. Thank you🥰

    Glad you're finding the content helpful, modesten.8254, and thanks for watching! All of the charts and approach plates I use are available (for free) at SkyVector.com. Probably the best way to use it while flying with MSFS would be to look at SkyVector with your tablet. I have a video on how to read IFR enroute charts here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/d6BqyLShks2nkrw.html A video on the basics of instrument approaches and approach charts here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/emGArsyakpWbeso.html And a video on how to use VFR charts here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/iqOEptqNaarJYrQ.html
