As always, great tech Tuesday.

Excellent insight and details. Great job Shaun.

Thanks Shaun enjoyed the tech Tuesday info

I love Tech Tuesday's! Very Interesting!

That was awesome. Love the tech stuff

Thank you Shaun!

Love the tech video

Very interesting, clarified such a lot. Keep these videos coming...cheers Roger.

Very interesting. Cheers Shaun

Great video

That was a good mate, keep up the good work.

Great video thanks Shaun

Cool info, thanks!

Keep the coming Shaun. Well covered.

good stuff man.

Good stuff!

Thanks Shaun! 👍👍

Enjoyed knowing more. Thanks for doing that for us.

Interesting and informative. thanks.

Great video......

Thanks Shaun I learned a lot from this tech video.

Thanks, Shaun

Well done sir

Sees CPL video.... Cracks open Champagne 😂 loving the content as always!

Good straight forward video, and we thank you for these. Realize you've had a lot going on, with S&F and such(and hope that was a success, am going to try and hit next yrs.) so no worries about missing some. Do hope you get some flight video's loaded when you get time.

Shaun..you have a way with words and a natural teaching ability...great video!!

Have been waiting to see all of that explained. Thanks for sharing.

First woohoo. Thanks Sean another awesome video.

These tech videos are great. May never sit in one but always want to learn something about aircraft. Much appreciated!

Great explanation. Very interesting. Thanks...

Great vlog and thorough explanation of the panel, thanks Shaun!

Sean Your FMC is similar to the Garmin GFC 700. Your explanation as always was simple and to the point. Thank you! Patrick

Thanks for the great explanation of that nondescript panel that you pilots seem to touch so often. Now i understand how you can hit those buttons so quickly with so much confidence.

Right on Shaun! FMS makes it all good...

Enjoyed the video and meeting you Friday at Sun-N-Fun!

I'm a non pilot and a old man this is the vid I have been wanting to see. lov your show

1st! Uhhh scratch that lol Now that flight guidance panel info is Extremely interesting to me! Great video and info Shaun!!! I just noticed you got another video up today I missed, think it was the flight sim at sun n fun! That'll be fun to see so I'm out to check it out now. 2 thumbs up! Added - must of been a senior moment when I thought I saw another new video, it was your 1st check out ride down to Fulton Ga. I watched the 1st few minutes, I hope nobody ever wrote Alerion especially after you cautioned us not to, that would of been awful and it not only would of been ridiculously bad for you it would have shot all of us viewers in the foot too. Hey, I hope you had a blast at Sun n Fun!!! My pilot was on vacation or I'd have been there buddy!

Excellent. Now I could crash in style!

I'm sure some people aren't as interested in the details in this video, but I totally love it.

Enjoy the tech lessons. Off two my 4th flying lesson Friday. 2.3 hrs under my belt at 52.

Tech Tuesday on wednesday i cant believe it🙄😁

One of the best tech videos I’ve seen! I’m having a hard time understanding some missed approach procedures. As complex as one may seem, the one at Martin State Airport in Baltimore is challenging. It’s the VOR DME. The arc goes from 14.7 to 11 at the R-68. I understand the have restricted airspace in front of it but why not just have a 11 DME for the whole segment. Super confusing.

I’ve got about 5k in different Gulfstream models, and I knew them as the magic buttons that did STUFF. LOL. With the latest and greatest Gulfstreams, all you need to do is just need to think of a operation and the plane will perform it. Well, maybe not, but somewhere down the road.

Very good explanation Shaun. Is there an autopilot kill switch on the control yolk as well? Thanks, great VLOG!

@timsfun6653

5 жыл бұрын

Yes, a button on the yoke will disconnect the auto-pilot but leave the auto-throttles active. To disconnect the auto-throttles you would normally press the AT disconnect buttons on the front edge of the throttles or shut off the AT on the Flight Guidance Panel (button top left corner).

There are actually 2 methods on the yoke to disconnect the autopilot. There is a designated button for it, or the most common method is to use the electric trim switch, as that disengages the autopilot.

Neat info! How many hrs a month are you flying?

That varies quite a bit. I've been around 30 hours per month lately, but it can go up and down from that

Dang I wish I had the money to be able to learn how to fly these planes.

looks like today you are more of a computer monitor than a pilot. Must be depressing. Can appreciate reducing the workload,but every pilot likes to "hand fly:" Modern times. Love your videos

Felch makes me giggle.

Just wondering any chance you get together with Jon once in a while and fly with him again?

how do i arm TO mode before takeoff? (TO in white on the FMA)

The altitude selection knob looks odd. Seems like the mechanics didn’t have the proper spare parts... 😎

Yes there is - AP/ON and AP/OFF button.

No LOC button? So when you are cleared to intercept the localizer, you stay in LNAV?

@timsfun6653

5 жыл бұрын

That is correct. UNLESS, you are cleared for the approach, meaning cleared to descend on the approach. If you are just cleared to intercept and track the localizer you stay in LNAV mode. Once you are cleared for an ILS approach you activate Approach mode and start to descend on the glideslope.

Hey Shaun, I saw the Tech Tuesday video on the Nutcracker referring to the spoilers, but do the buckets at the back of the engine cowling auto-deploy also or is that a manual function?

That's a manual function. The levers just in front of the throttles are for the thrust reverser buckets.

One thing that was not answered here that I have always been wondering. When ATC says "Turn left heading 240", I see the dial turns to set 240 for the heading but how do you tell the aircraft to turn left to that heading and not right? I assume that it is based on the direction your turn the knob? I also assume it can't be simply that it will turn whichever direction is the shortest because I am sure there are times ATC wants you to turn a certain direction even if it will take almost a 3/4 circle to get there.

@mikeh2520

5 жыл бұрын

It's a pretty simple software decision to make a 20 degree turn instead of a 340 degree turn.

@CorporatePilotLife

5 жыл бұрын

Yeah...it goes whichever direction is shortest. It does get trick when ATC specifically asks us to go the long way around, like that 3/4 turn you mentioned. In that case we turn the heading knob slowly around to just keep it turning in the correct direction.

@Dufas136

5 жыл бұрын

@@mikeh2520 I realize that but there are times that ATC actually wants them to take the long turn so that is what I was asking is how to force it to make the turn the long way, the way ATC asked them to turn. I think I understand now based on Sean's response. They turn the knob slowly to force it to turn the direction they want.

@Dufas136

5 жыл бұрын

@@CorporatePilotLife Ah, makes sense. You basically have to turn it slowly to trick it to turn the direction you want even if it the longest. I think I hinted at a great idea though, wouldn't it be better if it turned in the direction you spin the knob?

Why there is a FL CH and not use constant SPD (selected) + ALTITUDE selection? If I have SPD selected and climbing using ALTITUDE and V/S selected will A/T not keep the selected SPD? Or you need FL CH selected while changing ALTITUDE?

@timsfun6653

5 жыл бұрын

This has to do with required power settings and the auto-throttles. With a specific airspeed and altitude selected, if you want to climb the airplane a decision has to be made about how much power to add to achieve the climb. Add a little power you get a slow climb, add a lot of power you get a high rate of climb. When you use FLCH to climb, the auto-throttle computers use max available power to climb as quickly as possible while maintaining airspeed (or near idle to descend quickly keeping airspeed). You could do this "manually" using the VS (vertical speed) mode but you'd have to guess how quickly the aircraft is able to climb (while maintaining airspeed) by increasing the climb rate until the auto-throttles couldn't add any more power and the airspeed starts to decrease. On descent, you'd have to increase the rate of descent until the power couldn't be reduced any further and airspeed starts to increase. It's far easier to just use FLCH and let the computers work it out.

No YAW dampener?

@timsfun6653

5 жыл бұрын

The Yaw dampener on/off button is located the forward instrument panel just above the pilots right knee (right next to the electric trim on/off button). It is normally left on for all phases of flight and does not turn on/off with the auto-pilot.

Why is the altitude dial/knob white?
