Happy flying Captain Hancock. She's a beautiful bird with only a few rough edge left to iron out. It is my favorite plane to fly in X-Plane for sure.

Aside from not beginning this by explaining how to get your flight plan (simbrief.com or similar) this was excellent. Thank you.
Big thanks Captain, I learned a lot. Next episode will be much appreciated. Cheers from Europe!

It's the best plane in X-Plane in my opinion. I just love it. I have the 767 Pro 3, E195, JD A320 and the IXEG 737 and the IXEG is my go to plane for flights.
Wow! Thats enough to get me subscribed! Thank you, sir!

Welcome aboard. Glad to have you.
Thanks, great job.
Nice tutorial. I love the -300's. At around 13:30, you mentioned that Southwest Airlines does not turn on the fuel pumps/APU. The FO actually has to turn on the Left AFT pump at least, but they don't have to start the APU. Once all the fuel is onboard the aircraft, the captain will turn on all the required fuel pumps. Usually, the CA will bring on ALL the pumps of the tanks with fuel in them and go hydraulics A’s off B’s on. Anyway, great tutorial.
Best IXEG tutoial on youtube, thx 👍
Excellent tutorial, very well explained...would like to see one in the future with the 737-800(zibo) and Rotate MD-80 if at all possible? Many Thanks :)

Hi Captain, nice video - just two things I noticed while watching: Field elevation in KSEA (your destination) isn´t -430, its +430. Also you managed to kick both ducts into overheat condition trip-off (thats why the "RECALL - CHECKED" didn´t quite work out on the pre-taxi checklist ;-))
hey there, very nice video! Is there any way to open the cabin doors? Thanks in advance
Very valuable video. I was waiting for you to turn off the chrono.
Hi. Congrats for vid. Just a suggest. The correct IRS position is pointed at second page of Pos Init menu (left irs position)
I just got a question how did u get the jetway to be by the plane door??
How do you know what to set for the center of gravity? To avoid too much forward or backward.
Gorgeous run-through,thanks ,Bada bing bada boooooom

I have one question .....there is 2 "course" knobs ,that you initially set to yr take -off runway heading ....and use for runway IlS approach heading....... I never understood, what this function actually does.Can you help?
@CaptainKMan
7 жыл бұрын
That's all they are for, to set for ILS approaches and to help you get the Localizer needle lined up properly and to remind you of important directions you need to fly. For takeoff we set them for the departure runway heading just so we are doubly sure we know which way we are going when we depart until we make our first turn. For the approach they are used to tell the Autopilot that this is the final approach course for the runway and it uses that in conjunction with the ILS localizer beam to get your aircraft centered on the runway. As you get into the glide envelope for the runway then the glidescope ball comes down and once it is centered (or just before) you turn on APP mode on the MCP and the aircraft will literally land itself, descending to the runway. This is not typically done. Most pilots will turn off the autopilot once they are 1000 feet above the terrain. If you had the course knobs set wrong the aircraft would never be able capture the Localizer beam or worse, it would lock on to the wrong runway or heading, and you'd never get lined up with the runway you want to land on while on Autopilot. The course knobs are also used during flight occasionally to help you remember radials at VOR stations that are important for your flight. Some visual approaches use VOR station radials to help the pilot turn properly for a visual approach.

Oops, I have still another question......You seem to be communicating with the Betterpushpack plugin through your voice ......(or are you pushing buttons). So this leaves me puzzled if this plugin has that capability?
How did you bind the TOGA button. I can’t find it in settings
Maybe run a how to on how to properly install this in xplane. I'm sure I'm doing it right, but the plane keeps crashing to desk top each time I try to fly it.
Hi Captain! Nice video and thanks for that one 😉 really helpful. One question tho: I thought that in the US, one does not need to ask for pushback and start on non movement area so basically if the pushback does not stop on an active taxiway. Could you clarify that point for us please? Thanks so much

Depends on the airport really. I just like saying it so I say it. :) A lot of airports on require you to contact ground when ready to taxi.

@CaptainKMan

The ground service vehicles and animations are from JARDesign Ground Handling Deluxe ($9.99) and the Jetway plugin is Marginal's Autogate which is freeware and used by many airport designers to get moving jetways at their airports.

Hello sir, Fabulous vidéo... i love it. Now, i m going to look yours others vidéos about 737 IXEG . Just one thing: the feets altimeters between pilot and copilot is 80 feet. you have not set the QNH on your copilot side and your stand-by altimeter
I am flying the IXEG 737 a lot now and lately I was trying to tune to Schiphol Amsterdam ATIS frequency which according to Charts would be something around 104.something ,but the radio won t tune to such a low number.....can you help?
why can't I get the menu to go away, it's always on.
When programming the fmc , I keep getting a route discontinuous error and I dint know how to fix it or delete it

With Pilot2ATC do you use a 2nd monitor for it?
@CaptainKMan
6 жыл бұрын
Yes I do. I actually use 3 monitors when I am flying but only the center one is for the simulation itself. Pilot2ATC goes on the left and Navigraph charts and video recording software goes on the right.

Depends on what kind of flying you are looking to do. Are you doing Bush Flying? GA props? Airliners? There are two payware add-ons you will want regardless; xEnviro for the weather engine and XPRealisiticPRO for pilot/aircraft sounds and psychics. I would invest in large fast hard drives too and at some point start learning how to use Ortho4XP, a free tool that allows you to transformer X-Plane's default 'fake' world into the real world under your aircraft.

Ahhhhh! Airline pilot! My thing! I don't do much prop flying at all. I am all about heavy iron. The IXEG 737 is an excellent choice. It is perhaps the most complete and comprehensive aircraft available for X-Plane. The new Flightfactor A320 has the bar even higher and other aircraft like the 757 Pro are exceptionally well simulated but the 737-300 is my baby. I wish PMDG would get off their asses and port it over. The gave us a nice DC-6 prop liner as a test to see if they could do it. They did it. Now.. transfer over the 600/700/800/900ER already! Until then, the Zibo Modded default 737-800 is pretty damn impressive and is approaching PMDG quality. I would look into it. You can find the main thread for the ZIBO mode in the X-Plane 11 General forums at the very top as a sticky. All the links to what mods are needed and other add-ons such as the kick ass audioXP sound pack can be found there.

There is no 'best' flight plan. It's whatever the weather calls for during the planning. I have a tutorial on how I prepare my flights that may give you some insight that you are seeking. Just look in my video section for the Flight Planning the Captain K-Man Way.
Awesome! Could you do the default (or Rotate, though I'd prefer xD) MD-80 tutorial?

That is one of the planes I have not bought yet but it is on my hit list very very soon. I am mastering the 767-300ER Pro and 747 at the moment. Once I get the MD80 from Rotate Sim and get some hours in it I probably will do a tutorial!

You can set up hundreds of cameras. If you have ever watched one of Thomas's promo videos for a new plane or airport product and you ever wondered how he does all those cinematic pans and sweeps... he's using X-Camera like me. It can be used for interior, exterior and airport camera setup.

Captain K-Man Just subscribed. Thanks so much for answering my questions. Just bought the plane. With pilot2atc, does it tie in with the default atc or you not using default and just that. I’m really confused on my end. I’m using the United airlines livery with mine but the default callsign cant be change can it? So will pilot2atc be its own??
@CaptainKMan
6 жыл бұрын
Pilot2ATC is a stand-alone ATC package. It ignores X-Plane ATC. You will setup your flights in the Pilot2ATC flight route setup and define the airline and flight number for the flight. It will call you by that callsign and flight number for the duration of the flight. X-Plane's ATC is garbage, hot steamy garbage that isn't going to get the kind of improvement it needs anytime soon. Pilot2ATC is just an amazing piece of software for offline ATC needs.
42:49 it's PERFORMANCE button (not Preference)
Hi Captain, I am sure you get this question a lot. Are you a real airline pilot in life? You have indicated great knowledge and explanation in this video. Thank you very much, subbed!

It is actually called AVGAS (aviation gas) so he is technically correct, also how come the pilot did not fly the fp marker on initial climb out, the indicator wings were at 20degree on the display for the aircrafts loading but it seemed a little struggled to get up there even though I was watching the vsi which seemed acceptable.
