Super Close General Aviation Spotting [4K]
My friend and I went doing some plane spotting again, but this time we were not filming big airliners, but rather small GA planes. There was a landing competition at the "La Côte" flying club, so we could not miss the opportunity. My friend even had the chance to do a flight (watch 'til the end). I hope you enjoyed, give me your feedback in the comments.

Evening Planespotting at Geneva with ATC [4K]
zhlédnutí 381Před 5 lety
We went back to Geneva airport to do some planespotting with my friend. This time we thought we could bring you the footage like that: some long shots with the ATC. For those who want to know how we did it, we hooked a phone connected to LiveATC (a site) just next to the microphone... and the result isn't bad! - Location: Geneva (LSGG) - Runway: 04 - Camera: Sony NX80 4K - ATC coverage: LiveATC

how did u get there? I want to go plane spotting but cant find the spot
So beautiful share this
Totally brilliant
💞
continue the journy even after 2 years!
You didnt show the starting procedure! ..whats the point?!!
Awesome!
Loving this- you’re pretty much exactly in my shoes so watching this is great :) love vatsim and pretty much addicted to it now as long as my mate is on to fly with me or unless I feel confident enough to fly by myself xD
I tried to contact all tree ground services but got no answer
Thank you FSB for a great video. I am just in the process of learning Vatsim so this video really helped me out. I also picked up some other usual info from you. Please keep making videos because they are entertaining and very helpful . Thanks :)
Very good!
Great video, thanks for sharing!!….
FlightSimBoy, I am not a pilot by any standards, but I do have some advice when running the APU have one of the aft pumps on. That is the only pump you need when the APU is running. Keep the packs on until you are ready to start the engines so the plane stays cool. Don't worry about the before Taxi checklist items until you have fully pushed. The anti-collision light goes on only when you are hooked up to the tow and ready to push. Speaking of checklist items the Zibo has that in the tablet. Otherwise, that was still a great flight.
Very nice video! 👍
Takeoff config: *Turns on wing and wheel well lights.
Been ages since I’ve been on vatsim and I know this video is old but right before you take off he says via A1 which is the holding point :) might try a vatsim flight soon it’s been months
Oh! so you fly airbus? I am am and airbus simulator pilot! cheers! well, one thing is that you are not supposed to put the flaps out at the gate. The huge hydraulics that operate the flaps require power from the engines, and it would not be a good idea to draw that much power from the right after start, and, you set the destination landing altitude only before the T/D. Before departure, you set the departure airport's elevation, just in case you need to come back again. Taxi and turnoff lights are only before you taxi. Turnoffs are usually after you exit the ramp area, or else, you would be blinding people at the gate and the ground crew. the discontinuity in the geneva arrival is deliberate, and signifies a vector. You can find amazing charts, powered by VATSIM on chartfox.com Again, LDG Lights and STRBS only when lining up with the RWY. RYANAIR would be MAD at you if you started the APU mid air. And don't worry. You have a PTU and a Ram Air Turbine, so you still will be totally fine... AND how much does fuel cost? And welp, I can't believe you approached the wrong runway... REFER THE WIND! You need to put the engine start switches to auto after landing if there are no icing conditions, AND ESPECIALLY the engine you are shutting down!
Awesome one ! Thanks for sharing :)
Thanks for watching :)
AWESOME!!!!! Thank you for sharing and keep up the good work.
Thanks for the kind words :)
great video :)
Very nice and interesting video...I really enjoyed it!
what spotting location is this? It appears to be on the France side
Which sim is this pls tell me
Really cooooool!😎
Thanks for watching dude :)
My Lord!!! amazing on 4k.. did a SUB / Liked (sure!!!) tks for share
i simply luv this vid.... really, REALLY cool.. and i can imagine howz hard for edit it, since colombian huey to DC3 and moving to modern planes... amazing
Thanks mate, much appreciated ! There's indeed a lot of work behind, but it's clearly worth it !
Quality video👌 I'm flying into GVA in a month from CDG!
@@theflightsimboy4310 merci!
43:44 ah yes, my favorite altitude, sickthousand
Love ur pfp
Did he turn the APU off after engine start?
You don't need the APU once the engines gens are on I believe. Cheers !
Hello, as a skilled bush pilot the competition might be interesting for you ilankrt1.blogspot.com
My name ´s Pablo!!!!!!!!
Hello, superbe travail ! Quel addon utilises tu pour avoir des vues en cinématiques comme dans la vidéo ?
Salut, merci beaucoup ! J'utilise X-camera qui est gratuit, je recommande ! Je te conseille de regarder quelques tutoriels parce que le menu est pas très intuitif (Ceux de AUS Flight Simmer sont bien).
Dude! I just watched your first VFR vid and used it as reference, (wrote a script, can send to anyone, just let me know!) and now I’m gonna use this one! Thanks a ton
Love it
Thanks, much appreciated :)
Man i need help flying the helicopter i say out of control
Hey it’s better to have the tug ready for pushback and then ask for clearance, but it’s not really that big of a deal. Nice job!
The transponder is set to TA/RA upon lining up the runway. The transponder is on standby on the parking position, turned to ALT OFF before pushback, this gives ATC the possibilty to see you on their ground radar. ALT OFF stands for "Altitude off", because the controller obviusily doesnt need it :-)
Thanks a lot for the tips, i'm still learning to fly this bird :)
VATSIM rules, mate. I know it's unrealistic, but VATSIM requires TA/RA... Though use TA, and it considers it as Mode C...
Astonishing! :) I dropped a like and sübbed, would you mind sübbing back? ;)
Very well done! I like your music too.
Thanks dude ! Much appreciated :)
can you tell me where did u stand?! i really want to do it aswell(not now in the corona, after it)? i would really aprrciate it
It's the spot 16 on the map: www.spotterguide.net/planespotting/europe/switzerland-europe/geneva-gva-lsgg/ (only good when runway 22 is in use)
This Dassaut Falcon T.O at 13:08 !! Stunning ! btw beautiful video
Isn't it ? Thanks for watching dude, very much appreciated !
Hi, saw you on Sveny airlines in cyvr, where are you flying out of? Would love to see a tour of airports Vancouver, boundary bay, Langley, Pitt meadows, Abbotsford, Chilliwack
It wasn't me, I've never been in Vancouver, even in Vatsim. Anyway thanks for the recommendations, I take good notes! By the way I guess you noticed my channel has been kinda down recently, that's because I didn't have much time to make vids... But I'll try to start again! Cheers :)
Thats one of my favourite XP11 film, i thought it has like 100000 views! But keep up the good work!
I don’t why this made me cry I can’t wait to do this job.
Glad you liked it ! Hope you'll reach your dream !
Great video +12
Thanks for watching mate !
Nice spotting 👍
Thanks mate !
Hi Emmanuel! How are you! Can I please ask you a question about vatsim? I downloaded xsb and I joint vatsim, but my pc and xsb can't detect my microphone from my headphones, even if they are new... How can I do? Please help me... Bye!
Hi! I'm doing great thanks. If you say your PC doesn't detect your mic, the problem doesn't come from xsb. Make sure you correctly assigned your mic in your PC settings. If that's not the problem, check your xsb settings (mic assignement, input volume). If that doesn't work i don't know what to do.
Really interesting and quality video, I like it
Thank you !
I hope you enjoyed, make sure to watch until the end (cockpit view).
