This is BY FAR the best tutorial I’ve seen for this great airplane. You never rush and are so relaxing to listen to. I'll be watching this video many time again just to get comfortable with the procedures. Thank you for taking the time to make this great video. Cheers

It has come to my weirdest attention that after me feeling really down after a series of unfortunate events, I decided to learn to fly a new plane for flight sim. I chose the Dash-8 because I'm a short-hopper and that this would be my first study-level aircraft to put my mind off things. THEN a few days later, I tried exceeding the flight envelope of this plane just for fun and then once I got tired of randomly stressing the A/C, I decided to rest and then YT recommended me a VAS Aviation video about the SEATAC incident last year... Lesson: Get a Q400 when your feeling really bad. It's a fun "sporty" plane you can fling into the air. Disclaimer: Only use software Q400s. DO NOT TRESPASS INTO A REAL AIRPORT AND GRAB ONE FOR YOURSELF. I will not be held accountable for anymore missing Q400s ending up in fireballs.

@ellonysman 5 лет назад

Hows the short flying in the dash 8 going after a few weeks of playing with it?

@agoogleuser4317 Месяц назад

It is just easy enough to learn, yet not as boring as an e175, difficult enough to keep you engaged but not overkill like MD-88, and has enough checklist items balanced throughout the flight to be fun and not most items during preflight like the 737. Once you start to realize you might be getting bored, you're already starting the descent to your destination airport. An all around fun plane to fly

@iclicklike3397 5 лет назад

Max RPM put a smile on my face. That hum just so pleasant. Since your ref speeds allready have icing component in it, pretty sure FD will add extra on top of what you have. Been a while since ive flown this one, but i think plane will ask you to switch to increased reference speeds once icing is detected, thus adding component to your normal reference speeds.

@comicgeek1178 5 лет назад

@97I30T 5 лет назад

Wow, this plane is super hands on! And I thought that the Leonardo Maddog X MD-80 was a handful. It seems like there’s always another button to push. It’s not like an A320 where most of the tedious things are done for you by the plane. I really respect the pilots who fly these things for real.

Quick tip: Feed in 2-3 clicks of right rudder as part of your prep to counter act the left yaw roll on take off.

@spookygh0st234 4 года назад

Is this just an issue with the plane? I did what you said but still got a bit of a left offset when taking off

@ExpeditionOverlanding 4 года назад

@@spookygh0st234 it's replicating real world yaw with the crash eight. Both props turn the same direction rather than counter, so it causes yaw at take off and climb. You might need to feed more right rudder (6-7 clicks) to counter yaw plus cross wind.

@deancarlson5992 5 лет назад

how do you get track IR to be sooo smooth and hold it directly in centre to look up at panel?

@SimulationChannelDeluxe 5 лет назад

It's not only TrackIR, I'm also using EZdok. I use TrackIR only for the pilot and copilot views (and even there I can deactivate it if needed), to have a detailed look at the FMC, the overhead or other panels I use predefined views that are saved in EZdok.

@SimulationChannelDeluxe 5 лет назад

Thanks a lot Rick! Unfortunately I'm no real pilot, just on the PC. Even though it might not seem so, the Dash 8 Q400 is very modern and high tech, it's just more hands-on than other airliners. I think that they still get produced like that :)

Why are you descending with the condition levers in the climb (CLM - 900 RPM) detent?

@SimulationChannelDeluxe 2 года назад

I didn't fly the bird for ages, but it might be part of the descent procedures. Also higher RPM help with slowing down the aircraft.

@AviadorLPA 4 года назад

On landing, apply thrust until touchdown, the dash 8 slams the ground with idle power on flare

@SimulationChannelDeluxe 4 года назад

Yes I will try in the future. Bad habit from flying Airbus and Boeing haha ;)

@AviadorLPA 4 года назад

@@SimulationChannelDeluxe ;) and by the way, on flap 15 config your nose should be 2º high, you didnt slam the ground because you where high on altitude and speed. You can check speeds on the pdf of speeds, you can check your LW and set your VREF

@axelsubo126 2 года назад

47:48 I'm not too clear on why we switch on incr. ref speed after takeoff and not before? Is it only used to increase ref speeds for landing? Would someone be able to explain?

@axelsubo126 2 года назад

Ohhh is it just you telling the plane that you're using increased ref speeds? Like it isn't actually changing them for you, it's just aware you've done it?

@axelsubo126 2 года назад

Found the answer! Took a scroll through the sample delivery flight PDF offered by Majestic and stumbled upon it by accident. Direct quote: "To address the “ICE DETECTED” caution, place the INCR REF speeds switch to “INCR.” The ICE DETECTED will change from yellow to white, and stop blinking. What the switch does is raises the low speed cue (red-tape) about 20 kts, as well as the stall warning threshold to compensate for the detrimental effect ice has on an airframe. This is why we always increase our Vfri and Vcl speeds by 20kts, as well as Vref/Vga speeds on landing to account for this change."

@renatoroberto 3 года назад

I'm trying to use the third axel of my joystick to steer the aircraft... impossible. How to turn that ON?

@SimulationChannelDeluxe 3 года назад

I think there are three ways to steer the aircraft that you can choose in the Control Panel App: Only via the mouse, using the Ailerons axis, or by using the Propeller(?) axis. Not sure if it's the Prop axis now, have to look that up. Cheers

@callumclausen8658 4 года назад

Why do you change it to above at 44:37? Thanks alot!:)

@SimulationChannelDeluxe 4 года назад

This is realistic procedure for the traffic avoidance system. For takeoff to "above", for descent to "below", so you have the appropriate radar beam when climbing and descending.
