actually, scrap my last shots

[xxMATTGxx]

Shall I lol? Hmm Ok.

Looking at it and many of the replies you need to slow down here using the speedbrake (Air brake) system and flaps. If your coming into land over 200 knots then you got a problem sunny!

[xxMATTGxx]

How do you get that i dont have it on Fs04 :S

Its an addon, PSS Concorde (Payware)


Amazing shots as usual Matt \\ Shame she still aint service today all because of another plane :|

Galax: its payware.

Thanks, Yeah such a shame, amazing aircraft. Gives a shine in my eye when I see it at Manchester Airport's Viewing Park =]


Absolutely Amazing <3 I love that ol' bird there!

Well done :) Made my day that was **** so far :P +REPpage if i can, doubt I can but meh.

Thanks very much :)

[Scania]

Ooer, Can't you edit your posts Matt?

I'll post some of myne later.

[xxMATTGxx]

I know this has been said but It will be much easier and better for you to just re install and yes that Q-100 is AI traffic only.

Amazing aircraft and I'm glad to have been in it. :)

[Mattch]

How did the tail set on fire lol?

And you might want to sort your sig out before somone else has to ;)

I dunno how i set the tail on fire and WHATS WRONG WITH MY SIG??


lmao, fspax gave me an engine blowout yesterday

Lol's what plane was it? Hope you landed (i fell sorry for the simulated pax if u crashed :P)


You love your crashing lmao.


No i don't love my crashing im just a very unfortunate person that som1 left a lit cigy in my tail :P


Ummm... nice shots?

Thaxs :)

boeing 737-800, and yeah i made a landing..

[Scania]

Hey!

Well, recently I've been taking loads of shots and thats probably why you havn't seen me as much posting shots, as well as Internet Troubles.

Anyway, I've been taking some [AA] American Airlines shots (I have plenty more, but I thought these ones were the best.

You're sig is too big.

Screw my sig if its to big i'd get a message from a mod :)

[Scania]

What the hell is good about scenery? o.O

You can get different types on makers scenery, (FlyTampa, Aerosoft Heathrow 2008, UK2000 etc.

It enhances your simulation time.

[ScottDiamond.]

Screw my sig if its to big i'd get a message from a mod :)

You just did.

Your tail would be on fire because you rotated too far on takeoff.

Radial, visual approach 23L at Manchester isn't fun.. Especially when you've not done it before and the controller muffles the inbound radial.

Server problems?

Why would an sql error be a problem with the server :S..

Quality sucks. IDC.
Wanna insult the video? Well sod off.
I only want CC or positive responses..

And no. It wasnt my first video in WMM. I forgot bout my css one.

Anyway.

Info:

Me and LeeStrong did a flight from 23:00 - 00:00 Around that time anyway.
The route we flew was GCRR > GCLP..
I flew at a maximum altitude of 8000, and maintained a speed of 245kts..

Any more questions?

[xxMATTGxx]

Why would an sql error be a problem with the server :S..

And? Its over, its up now. Why post? :l

[xxMATTGxx]

It was ok, apart from that smoke effect which took a while to go.

[cocaine]

nice smoke ;)

[cocaine]

Your arrived too early at your destination airport.(00h37:55 difference) (-100)

yeah lol.. :S

[Recursion]

How did you land that well :P I cant land still :D

[gtavc1210]

Why would an sql error be a problem with the server :S..

Because i was in fact rebooting the webserver as we are ona dedicated server it does require the occasional maintenance break now and then.
The SQL error is because it could not connect to the SQL server because the SQL server was down because i was reloading it.

Hope this helps you to understand

[Frank459]

I unno why it smoked in the reply. It was fine when I did it

Oh well.
Captain, our front gear has been damaged..

[Stephen]

I unno why it smoked in the reply. It was fine when I did it

I get that everytime I land lmao
Just did a flight and landed and my front will got damaged and I was braking along the runway like this:

\

Not a very good example so it was mainly looking asif you just lost your front wheel off a plane :)

[myke]

My PC is crap... I like my downloaded water textures though :)

Where are them textures from? :o

[myke]

nice sam :)! where is this plane from?

[myke]

Fit, 24th is my birthday LOL

[myke]

So I should land at around 100?

[Recursion]

Real Enviroment Pro I think its called, its free too :) I don't have the link anymore, but if you look on avsim, im sure its on there. It can add some other sexy stuff to :)

[cocaine]

So I should land at around 100?

in a normal jet like a 737 it should be around 130.. possibly 140 for other heavier aircraft

light aircraft should be around 45-60

[Frank459]

I would suggest landing at around 140kts
Set autobrake to 2
Soon as you touchdown, throttle off + reverse thrust + spoilers
Get to around 60kts on runway, press f1
Taxi to your gate.

(Thats what I do ^^)

[myke]

Nice, I think you lowered nose too quickly. It looked abit bumpy, nice though :) +REP

[Frank459]

yeah, but I was in cockpit mode, and didnt see how far my nose was up.. So I just lowered it

[VPSwow]

Nice images.

[myke]

I thought it was best to put autobrake at MAX and how do I engage speed brake?

[myke]

Thanks Jaffa :) +REPPY

[xxMATTGxx]

Autobrakes are for when you hit the ground. Speedbrake command = " / "

[cocaine]

I would suggest landing at around 140kts
Set autobrake to 2
Soon as you touchdown, throttle off + reverse thrust + spoilers
Get to around 60kts on runway, press f1
Taxi to your gate.

(Thats what I do ^^)

you're meant to reduce throttle to idle at 100ft over the rwy ;)

unless your crap like me and sometimes descend too fast..

[Recursion]

In my 747 at KEDW

Set Autobrakes to 1
Arm speedbrakes (shift and /) This makes them deploy as soon as you touch down
Flaps 25
Keep a steady speed of 146kts
As soon as you are over the first bit of tarmac put throttle to idle.
As soon as I touch down I apply full reverse thrusters (f2), when I reach 80kts I put my throttle up to keep me at about 30kts untill I get to parking. This also disengages the reverse thrusters.

[Recursion]

no problemo ;)

[Frank459]

I descend too fast aswell x]

You can use f1 to turn of Reverse thrust which I feel is better.. =]

[Recursion]

Hows it better anyway? :P

[myke]

Ok, how do I keep going on the runway at a taxi speed instead of completely stopping?

[Liberation]

Add my to MSN, ill give you the link if you want or something. PM me your address (for REP)

As is that what the thing you are on about that i sent you Tom?

[Adam!]

One thing I will say is do not use the spoilers any lower than 1000ft, if your not sinking into the runway DO NOT deploy them at least until you have touched down.


Ok, how do I keep going on the runway at a taxi speed instead of completely stopping?

Go easy with your throttle..

[Recursion]

Ok, how do I keep going on the runway at a taxi speed instead of completely stopping?

Put the throttle up to desired speed before you stop :P

[Recursion]

yeh, the REP thing :P

[Adam!]

8/10 for a first landing, not bad at all!

Few minor things wrong but mostly a very good landing! :) - Well done.

[Frank459]

Tar.
Would you mind pointing out the errors?

[cocaine]

put your N1 to around 40 if you wanna go about 30 knots.

but the taxiway speed limit is 20..

[Adam!]

Tar.
Would you mind pointing out the errors?
A bit too much flare, hard touchdown and a little late putting down the nose..

Reversers also shouldn't be deployed until all wheels are on the ground.

Nothing major though! :)

[cocaine]

what screen recorder do you use?

[Galaxay1]

how do you get smoke? lol

[myke]

One thing I will say is do not use the spoilers any lower than 1000ft, if your not sinking into the runway DO NOT deploy them at least until you have touched down.



Go easy with your throttle..
What do ya mean sinking?

[Scania]

nice sam :)! where is this plane from?

Its the 777-200ER Overland.

[Recursion]

slowly lower down to the tarmac.

[Adam!]

What do ya mean sinking?
Going down towards the runway, lol.

[Recursion]

Hey

http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=C4xaP0XmrTI

Rate :) Read the beginning of it, its important...

Anyone know why FRAPS adds that crap to the bottom of the video?

Tom

[Scania]

Shame about your PAPI all the way down (Precision Approach Path Indicators) AKA the lights at the side of the runway.

Oh & your frames/second are horrific.

[Recursion]

The frames are fine without FRAPS. As soon as FRAPS records, it goes horrible. I dont see why the PAPI and ILS/Glidescope dont match PAPI :P

If it wasnt for the FPS I would ave recorded it live, instead of replay..

[Mattch]

On my gps i've set the approach to 08L like the controller said then i pressed VECTORS and then ACTIVATE

If I'm right when i put the approach hold switch shouldn't it follow that white dotted line?

If it should it didnt

[Scania]

All approach hold does it hold your heading and lifts the nose to flare.

[Mattch]

Drat lol

Anyway i had it on to land but it didn't flare i had to do it manually also i could turn etc while it was active YES I DID HAVE THE A/P MASTER SWITCH ON!

[Recursion]

in the PMDG you have to press LOC then APP. But thats got an FMC cos GPS is ***** ;D

BTW You need to tune the ILS and Put the rwy heading in.

[Mattch]

A) how the hell do i tune into ILS?
B) I didn't know the RWY heading as i was flying in the fogged in with strong wind/rain :)

I want a challenge

[Stephen]

A) how the hell do i tune into ILS?
B) I didn't know the RWY heading as i was flying in the fogged in with strong wind/rain :)

I want a challenge

Just checking but you did have the little switch thingy on gps and not nav? :P

[Mattch]

Could of had it on Nav

Whats the diffrence though?

[Recursion]

Find the ILS Freq and put it into NAV1 and find the heading of the runway and put it into the course. You find em on the FS Map, I think you goto one of the menus then Map

[Scania]

A) how the hell do i tune into ILS?
B) I didn't know the RWY heading as i was flying in the fogged in with strong wind/rain :)

I want a challenge

That made me laugh. You don't check the runway heading mid flight. You check it in the map/charts your using.

[Mattch]

It wasent a vatsim flight and i was following the APP and de ATC'S instructions :)

[Recursion]

So you still look at the map like i said...

[Mattch]

Um... Do what i did in my virgin atlantic Buy a crapy aircraft (the worst on list) and then clip your wing :)

If u dont sue FSPAX

Land HARD AND clip your wing :)

[myke]

I don't fully understand what this does :(

[Scania]

It raises your nose on the Artificial Horizon, (Basically Flaring) for you.

[Scania]

Hey!

Put these in your pipe and smoke thum!' :)

Nice pics :)

How did you get bagage truck thing by your plane.

[Scania]

Its built into the Model :)

If you have FSX, Turn on full airport traffic and go to a well known airport, and then you can call for these trucks automatically.

If you don't have fsx, then you need to get models from Project Opensky - they do alot of cool models etc.

www.projectopensky.com :)

[VPSwow]

I use FS2004 but il look at the site :)

Thanks

[Scania]

No problem. ;) Hope you get VATSIM working.

[Frank459]

I used fraps, and I didnt plan the smoke. It seemed to appear during the replay..

woot even i new that and im new to flying and i can land and talk to atc :D


so i iz not a real noob :D

funny this is on vatsim we can tell you to go way we dont what you crap fires :D

MetroAir, i dumb i swear :@


i had them fly in when i was on Tic Tac tower (EGCC) they land witout out contacting me then taxied around the airport may to aircraft go around :@


then Mr IK_SUP kicked them Muahahahaa

how do you get smoke? lol

smoke just thing you get when you land it only dust on the runway so i was told by few real world pilots so put it in FS9/X

[Adam!]

smoke just thing you get when you land it only dust on the runway so i was told by few real world pilots so put it in FS9/X

You don't generally get dust on a asphalt runway that is used practically all the time.. It's rubber burning from the tires!

Where are the engine bleed valves are on 747

and

How do you stop the engines from spinning when you cut everything off?

[Yoshimitsui]

It is! But not as realitic as the realt thing! Or the proffesional simulators. You would have to pay a LOT more to get it very accurate

[Stephen]

I thought flight sim was meant to be realistic :S

Lmao next you gonna make a thread saying that in real plane crashes you don't restart at the runway :P

[Dan!]

lol matt, i flew from LEMG - EGGW and EGGW - LEMG


and just landed off doing LEMG - EGGW


all for TOM VA :D

[Dan!]

Thats lies.. You have to hav over 1000+ hours of flying time to be aloud to fly the 747.



Thats kind of impossible aswell, MetroAir don't fly in the UK. If you did - report there call sign.



projectopensky.com

Cody: I was just doing it for display ;)


pojectopensky plane are rubbish soz :D

and i think i no how to report pilots



and on a random note im starting work on getting my C1 :D

[Frank459]

I may be doing EGCC > LEMG tommorrow, if I get bored or if Lee dont do it..

If not, ill probably go up into Glasgow and do some vfr circuits.

[Frank459]

Doesn't mean I couldn't download it and have a play around offline ;P

So you werent really "working" for them.. Your message above goes against what you said before that..

[Recursion]

Yes i did work for them, I flew the Bombardier Dash-8 :/ but you have to have so many hours before you can fly certain planes, But that didn't stop me from downloading them and playing around with the big boys offline...

[Recursion]

I suggest this guide, it takes you right through the flying process. http://smithplanet.com/fs2004/pmdg/
Inc. startup and shutdown, also has a very neat overhead panel plan to show you where everything is.


^^ For some reason I cannot turn underline off, ***?

One thing I hate about some Virtual Airlines they make you fly some dodgy small aircraft. I rather fly for who i want these days :)

or osmthing like that

any help?

[Recursion]

Disable your firewall, and open the ports on your router ;)

[dannyisnotamazing]

Check your firewall

[Yoshimitsui]

Thanks, i will take a look at that :)

[Yoshimitsui]

Its built into the Model :)

If you have FSX, Turn on full airport traffic and go to a well known airport, and then you can call for these trucks automatically.

If you don't have fsx, then you need to get models from Project Opensky - they do alot of cool models etc.

www.projectopensky.com :)

Can you call them from any plane? Or that one and some other special ones.

Do they taxi for you and would this slow down your computer?

[Scania]

I have, it was great, but I lost it in the format. :(

Anyways, nice pics ;P

[Recursion]

You never post landing :( but nice shots none the less.

I used LOC and APP on the 767 today, and the ILS was established as the morse was sounding and it didnt land too well, it landed next to the runway, and didn't go down in time so I had to manual the height :/

[Mortalized]

Ace Pictures!
btw can other people fly in the same game as you, If you get me

[You]

Should of got in the way of the person landing :D

I would but it be harder for me to do that as I had traffic around Manchester and I had to come in manual, didn't have time to take Pics. Yes other people can fly around with you, there's tons of people on Vatsim. Lmao, If i got in a way he would of shouted ;[ :P

Level D 767-300 :)

[xxMATTGxx]

Hello, I picked both for a very normal reason. Why? Both companies make two wonderful aircraft I like. Which is the Boeing 747 (PMDG) and the Boeing 767 (Level D) both adds on are very detailed and very workable systems.

[You]

I've only flown a PMDG, so PMDG :)
