wain71 Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 I have had the 737/700 since it was released, never flown it, not had time, however I now plan to get to grips with it, I have been a predominately Airbus man so it's all alien to me...I am looking for Brussels Airlines livery if there is one and a descent pdf tutorial to get me started....are any of these available anywhere?...got so confused with FMC earlier and how to get the figures, maybe on the EFB? Any help appreciated, it looks like I have a bit to learn... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodger Pettichord Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 Good luck, Wayne. Those professional-level planes require real dedication. But for those who persevere, it seems to be a joyous experience in the end. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I highly recommend to check out the YouTube channel of Emanuel aka A330 Driver https://www.youtube.com/@A330Driver/videos His YouTube name used to be B737NG Driver when he still was a real world B737NG pilot, but he has become a real world A330 pilot last year and therefore has also changed his YouTube name. Emanuel is also part of the PMDG tech team, i. e. advising PMDG as a real world pilot. His channel is a real treasure chest for anything connected to PMDG's 737NGs. There are detailed tutorials on anything connected with this bird (always in connection to the real world), but also full flight videos with detailed explanations, videos about other planes in the sim and in real world. Of course the focus is now more aiming towards Airbus flying. So you have to go back at least 10 months or so to find the kinda videos you are looking for. E. g. this video is about programming an FMC, but it's not the only one: Emanuel is German, his videos are in English though and easy to understand.

Scott Harmes Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 Mentour Pilot recently did a 737 online course, which he has done a few times, on his "Mentour Now" Youtube channel. You probably won't find a more in depth tutorial, as he is a real life 737 check pilot. He does these courses in conjunction with Ben from Airline Pilot Performance. I actually haven't watched all of these ones, but watched a lot of the last course. I believe there is also a paid course, but these videos are free to watch and on their Facebook page there were also files. I can leave links to both. If you are unable to download the PDF files from Facebook let me know, I downloaded them previously. It's probably worth going through the PDFs included with the PMDG 737 as well. I'm pretty sure there is an included tutorial flight you can follow through. https://www.youtube.com/@MentourNow/streams Watch videos right to left (cold and dark video first). https://www.facebook.com/groups/virtual737course/files/files Actually, it looks like the group is paused on Facebook, so you can't join, so probably can't see the PDFs, so here they are. 737 Virtual Type Rating.pdf STN-DUB Flight Plan.pdf B737NG_FCTM_(31-10-05).pdf 7.PMDG-NGX-QRH.pdf 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Harmes Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 Along with the ones listed above Wayne, British Avgeek also has a full playlist of MSFS PMDG 737 tutorials. In fact there are quite few Youtubers that do 737 tutorials, even from back in the FSX and P3D days. The channel noted by Wolfgang above is an excellent one (A330 Driver). I have watched many of his videos. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shane2801 Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 Hi @wain71 I followed Doofer911 PMDG tutorial for the 7737. Real well explained and easy to follow. I love it. There are 11 tutorials all up. Definitely worth checking out. I'm the opposite to you. Now I am moving onto the Airbus 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
