Sniper31 Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 Some high crosswinds on takeoff there Jack? Some good looking images as you hit the skies for Newcastle! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VH-KDK Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 Beautiful images in very clear skies. I like the Westjet colours too. Keep to the rules and no tricks with your flying for if you look to the bottom left in your last image, there is Belmarsh Prison. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think I'd be happy in Belmarsh prison, no sir. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Paul, made an ok landing there, had to hand land it after a go-around. In this sim the ILS in APPR mode doesn't seem to sync until almost at the threshold, not just PMDG, it's other planes too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest Jack (and bear in mind that I have only been using the sim for a short time), whilst MSFS excels on the graphics front - ground detail, lighting etc, at the moment P3D and XP11 are more sophisticated in other ways. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sniper31 Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 @Jack Sawyer @paulb Since you two fellas are still getting used to MSFS, and you are noticing some differences, in regards ILS glideslops, approach modes etc, in MSFS, it really matters more if you approach and capture the glideslope from underneath. Best method is to be below the slope and fly straight in to intercept. Across most aircraft in MSFS, if you try to capture the glideslope from above, it is very hit and miss. Give that a shot next time you are executing an IFR approach and see it it makes a difference for you. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's the actual procedure to capture below however when too low to capture I get nagged in the 737 with "Below Glideslope". I'll continue to do touch and goes and see where the sweet spot is. It seems to me, mind I may be wrong, but it seems to me you can get reception much further out in real life. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
