Boeing 747 PILOT flies traffic pattern with CESSNA 152! Including CHECKLISTS by CAPTAIN JOE

Dear friends and followers, welcome back to my channel and my first video of Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020. Now in this video I will go back to my flight school days and fly around the beautiful island of Saint Bart with a small Cessna 152 I will show you all the

checklists

necessary for a flight on a Cessna 152 and I advise you to download the checklist from my website. The link is in the description box below with tons of additional information explaining each checklist item. Because? I need to change this and that, when and where, when to extend the flaps and so far, so don't guess, do it right and learn from me now.

Please understand that I see the Microsoft flight simulator as a fantastic procedural trainer or any other simulator if If you want to become a

pilot

, start small with a Cessna for example, use the checklist I provided and it will be more easy once you're in flight school. I can promise you, so let's fire up that bird and get to the market. 236 Kennedy Grounds teach you well, go right on bravo and don't get to Victor, okay guys, now we're at Sunbath Airport and we see a little bit that Cessna wanted to do, just go out for a sunset flight, here now we say that We have just done the pre-flight inspection and we have done the passenger briefing, we have turned off our mobile phones and we have adjusted the seats and fastened the seat belts, obviously we want to set the handbrake and all the avionics should be off and all circuit breakers should be checked meaning they are flush with the cockpit panel and the fuel shut off valve is on then we have the engine starting checklist so the mixture obviously gets rich, we'll start the engine at any moment.

The moment the heat from the carburetor cools down, then we will activate the main switch so that it is actually the battery and the alternator together. Then, since we're going to start the engine in a minute, we're now going to turn on the beacon. so everyone knows we're going to start the engine, then put the key in the ignition, open the throttle about a quarter to an eighth of an inch, just push it forward and then apply the brakes. Make sure they are set, we can prime the engine if necessary, we call the clear prop through the window and then we start the engine, so we just turn the starter key and release it immediately once the engine is actually on. running, we'll set it to idle, uh, somewhere at a thousand rpm or less, which you can use with the rpm meter.

Then obviously we'll check the oil temperature that's rising, then we'll check the ammeter that's charging and We'll put the fins on, check that the fins are in the up position, turning on some lights here, you'll see a little bit better, yeah, then We will set up the radios and configure the necessary frequencies. then we'll turn the transponder on standby, actually just to warm it up a little bit and then we'll already request our taxi authorization, yes and bartow, good morning, actually, golf sarah, requesting attacks to the staging area, okay, then we turn . at the taxi light because we're obviously taxiing so you'll need to check the left side and the right side to see if it's clear and we're on our way just watch this animation right now or simulation sorry I think it's absolutely beautiful it's like this . well done, okay, we're rolling on the center line.

Now you can do a lot of flight control checks and things like that while you're taxiing, but I decided to actually do this when we come to a stop just to make it a little easier for you to see what I'm actually doing, so we have the list of pre-takeoff check, so I've skipped a little bit, I'll go but go ahead and set the parking brake because obviously We're doing this check now, so I set the handbrake. We are verifying that the doors and windows are closed and latched. Now the flight control check is very, very important.

You have to move it in all directions and check that. they're free and correct, especially since they're correct in real life plane, you could actually see the ailerons go up and down, um, yeah, that's definitely what we want to do, then we'll set up the elevator trim for takeoff. which is that little horizontal wheel that you just push forward and you see that little sign that says take off, that's where you would put it, so the flight instruments need to be checked and set, so that would mean that the speed indicator of the air would show zero, the attitude indicator is level and the cageless altimeter is set to q h or qfe, whichever is applicable that day, the vertical speed indicator is at zero, the heading indicator or directional gyro is, Let's say the heading makes sense if it was pre-predicted to the runway um that it's obviously 90 degrees off the runway heading and on the turntable and the coordinator are level, the wings are level and that the ball is showing approximately on the half like it's okay now, so we've done it. that and then we add a little bit of power we use the rpm meter to check we set 1700 rpm right there and now that's the actual start of the runner so we're going to do the magneto check first which means you're going right, both magnets to the left. magneto and then go back to both pieces again and you should check for a drop in the rpm gauge.

Well, we do the same with the carburetor, you test it by removing it, put it back in, checking to see if there is a drop in rpm. It was actually there and the ammeter should be charging and we are checking that the engine instruments are green and that the suction gauge has enough vacuum to operate the directional gyro and attitude indicator, then we put it back to idle. We adjust the throttle friction. I'll come back to that in a minute and then light it as needed. If it was a night flight, then you would dim all the lights and, yeah, then we go to the radios and configure the radios. um the transponder reaches altitude obviously because we're going to start a flight at any time so the atc can see us on the radio screen, we put the rich mix on and that's the period before the takeoff checklist is completed, then we release the handbrake. obviously we need another taxi clearance to get to the holding point oh not really sorry about the liner well he just gave this knife.

Yes, again, now you use your brother's pedals, obviously, to steer the plane on the ground and stay on the centerline of the taxi or cab. line and here we go this is our bar alignment applying the brakes to stop again and now we do the normal takeoff checklist so we set flaps 10 for takeoff that's just my decision that I wanted to make that I wanted fly as fast as possible, the carburetor warms up cold, obviously you want to get maximum power output for takeoff, then obviously you apply full throttle or open and then the elevator control will be at 50 knots, it will turn and the climb speed will be 65 to 75. knots I'm releasing the brakes and gently applying power takeoff power takeoff set the call stabilizing and being on the center line here we go live speed we rotate and we're up there okay, we would immediately launch for the speed of climb is 65 to 75 knots there you have it and then I added the little sambar

traffic

pattern

s chart where we actually see where we're going and you guys know where we are so we immediately turn a little bit to the right heading towards that inlet of over there.

Steadily climbing while maintaining that pace at 65 knots and reaching 800 feet is the

traffic

pattern

. The altitude at Sandbart could already be cut if you wanted to, obviously, for the climb. To set that step, you can then more or less release the controls that we took. that right turn is more or less now downwind for runway 1-0. Wow, look the sun is getting incredibly close, well the atc has confirmed that we are downwind, yes, and we have already reached the traffic pattern altitude, which is not really high, it's only 800 feet, so obviously you would retract the flaps to gain even a little bit more speed and then you have that cruise control list tone for level flight, meaning you adjust it and then the power is set to cruise.

You could tilt it if you wanted. set the trim and mix uh yeah I was leaning towards if I was on a proper cruise flight I would obviously start to leave the plane yeah and I think now we'll just enjoy the views right now and here. I just want to point out again, you see all the controls that I've been using in this flight simulation. Here you can download them, just go to the description box and click on the link that will take you to my website and I have the normal checklist and also an expanded version where you can or where you get all the super detailed information.

Why am I hitting the switch here? Why am I pressing this button there? When do I need to extend the fins, etc., etc.? Definitely worth a look just to try to get this done at as professional a level as possible. Yeah, this is really helpful with that graph. I think I'll put the graph there too. You can download it. also and just to see where you're actually going, yeah, and I mean, I love this, especially that display thing where you can actually see where you're going, that's a normal thing that you would do on the real plane. look to the right look to the left for some visual references um yeah when to do for example the bass tone when we come in around the base so any time it should be perfect it's trimmed super stable little

cessna

more, can you ask?

Okay, now we're becoming the bass leg. The air conditioning confirms that again, it's amazing, it's so stable. I mean, look at how you set the engine power. Everything is great. I love when I made that recording. I really enjoyed it, I think I did something like 20 patents because I had a lot of fun with it, it was really cool, okay, yeah, we'll go back to that graph there, yeah, once again, uh, we're getting definitive now there's also Va there's going to be a very detailed video on how to do all the atc conversations uh, um with yeah, with atc, that you know what you're doing in the traffic patterns, a super super important video coming soon where you can practice it, uh, obviously , in the simulators right now they are okay, yes, we have reached the final version, so we actually have a little descent checklist.

Power is required, make sure it is needed, and carburetor heat as needed. This descent check is complete, so now we obviously have to start slowing down. to set it to flaps 10, we're in the speed arc where we're allowed to set the flaps more or less and here we go to flaps 20, we're actually going to lower it a little bit to 55 to 60 knots for the approach speed. because Sambot is really famous for that drop right on runway 1-0 that you'll see in a minute and it calls for full flaps, so 30 degrees full flaps is a bit of an outside view, I mean look at that with the sunset .

Well, we do it. a normal landing checklist, the airspeed will drop to 55 to 65 knots with flaps 30 flaps as desired are flaps 30 and then the approach speed would be something between 55 to 60 knots now that the landing check is completed we have clearance to land by atc and here we go really always accelerating back here and then really pushing it down, down, towards the runway and now gently starting this layer, there you go, that's me, keeping it once again on the center line with the other pedals and bringing the We accelerate there, we go more or less and we stop right now.

HTC gave us a track back on track two eight to the platform, so we turn 180 degrees and we can easily do that on the bar and bring it back to the center line, yeah. we do the checklist after landing, it's a hot and cold carburetor so it doesn't pick up any debris, loose debris from the runway, we put our flaps up one more time so the prop doesn't pick up debris and hit it against the flaps and then new taxi to the next taxiway available here on centbart there is only one of them and then we turn left and that is where you then turn off the transponder just for itself, don't confuse a2c on your radar screens or other

pilot

s if they have tcas , so that's the post landing checks completed, we're testing, let's say we've come to stop right here on the apron, okay, back inside, securing the plane checklist, obviously we turn off the radio, the transponder turns off completely now, don't do it.

I need that more and then the magnets on the ground mean on both and on the throttle, we actually apply a little bit.of thrust again at just 1200 rpm uh and then this is the weight of shutting down you just remove the mixture, more or less kill it with fuel and then it stops, I love it, it really makes that sound, the ignition goes off, the main switch and then it also removes more electrical power from the entire system, control lock, we don't have it here, the amount of fuel would be checked outside, sure This means you tie down the plane and put chocks in place and then obviously close the plan Of flight.

Here's just a short video of me flying, here's how we did it with all the controls, obviously with the controls it's amazing on the left side. I can actually see the checklist. My checklist that I've been using to make this as professional as possible and yes, I just see that landing one more time. You see, I've really pushed her down and she's amazing, absolutely charming, nice, so I hope you enjoyed this first. Microsoft flight simulator video of me, so if you are serious about this and want to use the simulator as a training tool and practice your procedural skills, technical knowledge, etc., I highly recommend you visit my website.

The link is in the description box. below and get the checklist I just used during my flight plus the amplified version of the checklist so you better understand what you are doing, why you are turning this switch on and off, what speeds to fly at, when to extend the flaps , etc. I know everyone wants to fly the Boeing 737 and bigger, but every professional pilot starts their training on one of those smaller planes, once you can handle a Cessna 152 safely and know what you're doing you can move on to the next bigger plane until you finish with the big planes, that's all for today.

I really appreciate your feedback on my first Microsoft flight simulator video. What would you like me to do next? Please comment below and thank you very much for your time.
