In simulator choose FREE FLIGHT. Click on Flight planner... button. Dialog with the same name shows. Click
on Select... button in Choose departure airport area to open dialog for choosing airport. Into By airport ID input
fill out LKMT. In Choose runway/starting position choose PARKING 2 -- RAMP GA MEDIUM. Press OK button
to close the dialog. The same with Choose destination fill out LKPR. In Choose flight plan type choose IFR.
In Choose routing choose Direct - GPS for simplicity. Click on Find route button and set 16 000 feet. Click
on OK button and save the flight plan. You wish to move your aircraft. Choose Boeing 737-800 aircraft, set time
and weather as you wish. I recommend set to Real-world weather (updates). Check Launch flight with ATC
window open. You can close the air tower communication window by ; key at any time. Click on Fuel and
Payload... button to open dialog with fuel settings. Click on Change Fuel... to open dialog with amount of fuel
which will be in tanks of your aircraft. You can briefly count which amount of fuel Boeing 737NG needs. 4,400
pounds for climb plus 4,800 pounds per fly hour including climb time. Add more 2,000 pounds as reserve.
So wing tanks have 4,400 pounds of fuel both and central one should be empty, because ony 30 minute flight
is expected. Close the dialog and start simulation by clicking on FLY NOW! button.
You can light up the instrument panel at night. Next turn taxi and anti-colision lights on.
Dynamic temperature shows in left up corner of the display. When dynamic temperature is between -40 °C a 10
°C turn engine anti-ice on. Doesn't matter the airplane is on the ground or flying. When the plane is on the
ground and temperature is below 10 °C wing anti-ice is required. Wing anti-ice are used rarely during flight (for
example during flight to Vietnam where clouds are high) because cabin air pressure could be lost.
Pushback
Press CTRL + . shortcut and release parking brakes. Then request a clearance to move to runway.
Engine start
When engines are not running press CTRL + . to activate parking brakes and start engines by CTRL + S. Then
release parking brakes by the same shortcut. When probe heat is turned off switch to on.
Pojíždění
Pokud nemáte vedle sebe navigátora s mapou letiště, můžete se přepnout do Locked Stop pohledu a nechat si
zobrazit šipky, které vás dovedou ke správné VPD (vzletové a přistávací dráze).
You must stop and wait in front of double cross line at any situation.
Takeoff
And now may be the most complicated part of the flight. Start with request takeoff clearance.
Slowly increase thrust to 40%. When engines get it increase again to 80%.
The first captain watches own speed indicator. When airplane reaches 80 knots he says ″80 knots″. The
captain check his speed indicator and when the speed is not the same he interrupts takeoff. Otherwise answers
″Check″. When any of warning signs are lighted up, takeoff should be interrupted.
When speed exceeds 145 knots, the first officer says ″V1″. After this moment, takeoff can be interupted only in
case of wheel or engine failure.
When speed exceeds 150 knots, the first officer says ″Rotate″. Captain slowly increases nose for 3 seconds to
8 to 10 degrees.
When speed exceeds 160 knots the first officer says ″V2″. After this point aircraft can fly even with engine
failure.
The first officer says ″Positive climb″ when aircraft starts climb. Captain answers ″Gear up″ and sets gear
switch to UP position.
Autopilot is turned on in 400 feet altitude. Set A/T switch to ARM and turn SPEED on. Autopilot now controls
speed. Set Nav/GPS switch to GPS, turn CMD and ALT HLD on. Autopilot now controls altitude. You have still
manual direction control.
Boeing 37W, Turn right heading 280 proceed on cource, Climb and maintain 10,000.
1 - Acknowledge Instruction
Turn left heading 280, Climb and maintain 10,000, Boeing 37W.
Contact departure tower by changing radio frequency which you receive. Then turn HDG SEL on and turn
autobrake off.
Climb
You will receive clearance to continue climbing to flight level 160 (altitude in hexafeet) before you reach flight
level 100.
Cruise
Descend
Tower lets you know when you will be close to LKPR airport.
Boeing 37W, you are 66 miles east. Turn left heading 240 Expect vectors ILS
runway 6 approach.
1 - Acknowledge Assigned Approach
Turn left heading 240 Expect vectors ILS runway 6 approach, Boeing 37W.
Set heading to 240. Then take a look to a map which frequency and orientation has runway 6 on Ruzyne. Open
the map and click to green approach arrow area of runway 6.
Set course to 63, frequency NAV1 to 111.15 and turn NV1, MRK and DME on. Turn APP on and switch
from GPS to NAV.
Boeing 37W, Turn right heading 265. Descend and maintain 3,500.
1 - Acknowledge Instruction
Turn right heading 265, Descend and maintain 3,500, Boeing 37W.
Change heading and set target altitude 350 to start descend.
At flight level 100 slow down to 250 knots, make a double ding sign and turn landings lights on.
Approach
Label Below G/S will light up. It means you are under final approach vector level. Label ID on the radio panel
will light up too.
Boeing 37W, you are 21 miles southwest. Turn right heading 030, Cleared ILS
runway 6 approach. Maintain 3,500 until established on the localizer. Contact
Ruzyne Tower on 119.7.
1 - Acknowledge Approach Clearence
Turn right heading 030, Descend and maintain 3,500 Cleared ILS runway 6
approach. Maintain 3,500 until established. Tower on 119.7 Boeing 37W
Now set heading and wait in flight level until cross the final approach vector. Before that, contact Ruzyne tower
and let them know you are going to land on runway 6 with ILS.
After a while airplane reaches final approach vector and autopilot starts descend to the runway. On the primary
flight display label ALT ganges to G/S, ALT HLD and Below G/S stops lighting.
Boeing 37W, cleared to land runway 6.
1 - Acknowledge Landing Clearance
Cleared to land runway 6, Boeing 37W.
You have a landing clearance. Extend flaps to 15, switch gear to DN and slow down to 155 knots. The first
officer reads landing checklist.
Landing
Flight Simulator is really great for flying ILS (Instrument Landing System) approaches but the landing may
never be as real as in fact is. During approach the altitude is checked above location markers (OM, MM, IM)
which are signalized visually and acustically. Flight Simulator signalizes them acoustically only. North American
Boeing is not as technically great as Eupean Airbus. Autopilot cannot control rudder so after landing the aircraft
can go away from runway during strong side wind. Therefore autopilot is used to be turned off before landing.
Turn autopilot off above the last marker. Set A/T switch to OFF and press CMD A.
Continuously raise nose and decrease thrust to slow down to 140 knots. Vertical speed is slower. It's indicator
is on the right of altitude. After landing to the main gear Speed Brake Rever sets to UP position automatically.
Slowly decline the nose until it lands. Auto brakes are activated. Set thrust to reverse (for instance by
holding F2 key). Keep aircraft on the runway center by a rudder. When the speed is below 60 knots turn
autobrake off, reduce thrust to 20% and set Speed Brake to DOWN (by Spoilers (extend/retract) command).
