Real 737 Pilot LIVE | Learning to fly a glider again! | Microsoft Flight Simulator
411The Microsoft Flight Simulator 40th Anniversary update saw the introduction of a couple of stock gliders and a refinement in the simulation.
My first taste of aviation was over 15 years ago when I started flying gliders and I first flew solo in a SZD-50 Puchacz and having a play around has brought back many happy memories and super impressed with the simulation!
For today’s stream we’ll run through the MSFS Glider Training program to remind ourselves of the basics.
After that join me live on the MSFS server (West Europe) on Robben Island (FAEU) as we fly the DG Aviation LS8-18 to Cape Town where we’ll need to utilise ridge lift off Table Mountain to make it to our final destination, Cape Town International Airport (FACT)

THIS STREAM IS NOT TO BE USED FOR REAL WORLD FLIGHT TRAINING
The primary purpose of this stream is to give you the opportunity to see how a Real 737 Captain operates a desktop simulated aircraft in real time using real world operating procedures.
Whilst every effort is made to accurately replicate the way the aircraft is flown based on my experience as an Airline Captain and Type Rating Instructor, this is purely for entertainment only.
If you happen to be a line pilot or training pilot you must not follow the guidance in this livestream, it is purely for non-professional computer simulated flight. Only consult your approved material from your respective operator.
Personal questions and queries regarding my employment status will not be answered.
