TBM 930 ILS Approach - HOW TO in under 15 Minutes - Microsoft Flight Simulator 

100%! It become evident, pretty early on, that I must just be here for the flashing colours and bright lights cos damn my pea brain couldn't work most of this out!

@@DavidBournePhotoandVideo Basically, you just need to know your departure and destination. Lean The Automatic Pilot, how to set your Altitude and for you to learn how to gain a certain altitude on Autopilot. Then, learn the The Nav button, which puts you on your flight course. Then, you need to set the Altimeter to lower to a certain altitude before hitting the automatic landing guide which doesn't actually land the plane. Of course, a tower may ask for you to change your heading or a new destination to land at. It gets a little complicated the more you get into it especially if you fly a Jumbo Jet and use The (FMS) Flight Management System. That is when you have to research and learn route codes or airway codes. Every Jumbo Jet has to follow flight Airways to travel, so that they don't bump into one another. Of course, some planes don't have any of that. Just a stick, rudders, and ailerons. Flying is easy.....Also, a person needs to learn how to use Trim, and even some planes don't even have that. Then, you are constantly pulling back on your joystick which is a pain in the butt. Oh...anyone can fly a damn plane. Can everyone understand Flight Controller Tower Lingo Requests is a different story. I like starting off from the parked position and taxing to the runway. It makes if feel more real. Of course, that isn't easy for everyone to do. Just start off simple, and learn the rest later. Just have fun with it. After all, you can't kill anyone in a Flight Sim.

@@DavidBournePhotoandVideo Heck, I have XPlane 11, and other Flight Sims in VR. Not as scenic as Microsoft, and they only plan on coming out with it in VR much later on from what I was told. Oh...that would be awesome if they were to do that sooner rather than later. Of course, computers can't really handle a game like that yet but eventually...I'm pretty sure that will change.

As for Squirrel, he likes all the games I like for instance, Euro Tricking Simulator and American Trucking Simulator. Of course, I was a trucker in real life. Even so, my direct ancestor is one of the reasons why we all have a U.S. 1st Amendment. Oh...long to explain that history is in order to explain. I flew a plane when I was 5 or 6 yrs old. Not alone...I just held the yoke. He said, "Don't worry!" Whatever mistake you do, I can get out of it. I got to turn the plane, go down and up. To me, I was flying in a Cessna. I couldn't reach the rudders, and my parents never knew I went up in an airplane with a stranger at a small airport in Bristol, CT. I was a brave little kid. A little escape artist. My mom couldn't keep me locked in any room. I was an explorer. One of my sisters complained that she found me 9 miles from home at 4 years old. I always made my way back home even when I traveled further than that. lol I rode a Big Wheel from Bristol, CT to Plainville, CT and then to Southington, CT, and back home. Ha...I can't imagine where I'd go if I could fly. Area 51 perhaps. lol Hey.....doesn't everyone want to know what they are hiding? lol

@@brianparent That is one heck of a reply, I do appreciate the time you took to write it! It's amazing how these videos start off with flying basics and I think "yeah OK, I'm following so far" then within a short period of time I'm left sitting there going, "I'm lucky I know how to tie my shoe laces!"

Literally the same as me and same reasons

Amen brother

Same. Who wants to do a multiplayer mode and fly around in our TBMs?

JoeyGoesGlobal no

@@bangjoeofficial I would, but my 10Mbps internet says, "better wait for Starlink".

Welcome to the club, i'm dsoing the same

In FS2020???

Serge P yeah mate, just go to the MFD section on the bottom screen, go to airport information then put in any airport code, will show you all the runways and frequencies for that airport 👍

@@ocat1979 And then you can click on the frequency to put it into COM1 or COM2. I love this plane! I've now flown it real time/real weather/no assists from my town in Missouri all the way around to Burma now. My only real scare was landing at Queenstown NZ. ATC tried to fly me into the side of a mountain. 😄

Is it common for smaller airports and airstrips to not have any ils frequency?

W W yeah ILS is generally only found at larger airports

Does that mean the programmed flight plan, will include the ils waypoint? So all I have to do is enter the localiser frequency?

@@exiletsj2570 Yes that's correct. I believe you still need to be at the right altitude, but you'll see the ILS glide slope appear on your screen, and the plane should catch it as long as you intercept it by matching altitude.

knickknack Don’r forget to note the frequency before you click Fly because once you’ve left the world map there’s no way to find that frequency again

@@DaiBach99 You can actually get it directly from the PFD in the TBM. You just have to search the airport's ICAO in the "waypoint finder" and there is a tab with all the frequencies for that airport including the ILS frequencies. If you click on one of the listings you are prompted to load the ILS directly into your active NAV 1 or 2 radio.

Sorry but what is ILS mean?

Living in Nantes too!

Honestly, I've been learning myself and the video makes it out to be more complicated than it actually is.

@Old World Blues Hi, I might be able to help someone helped me today when I didn’t really know what I was doing, I know what to do for the next landing now after him helping me just add me as a friend on discord and I can link you to him AaronTheGamer07#9105
