PilotEdge V-03 Rating - Advanced VFR - Part 2
This video shows a V-03 rating flight, which demonstrates your ability to perform transitions of the LAX Class Bravo airspace. As briefed in part one of the video, I'm using the Coastal Route transition for the northbound leg, and then the Mini-Route transition for the southbound leg. If you want to try flying the rating using my exact route with GPS, the waypoints I used on my ForeFlight flight planner were

has anyone run into display problems with white or brown colored boxes blocking out vital information?
Over the past few months, I've been watching (and rewatching) the PilotEdge workshops. I recently checked the forums and discovered that you created these videos. I immediately recognized your voice from the recordings, as you consistently asked relevant questions and made insightful comments to Keith. Thank you for making these videos; your explanations are easy to follow and I find your videos calming to watch. Thanks!
OLAAA2 STAR also South Arrivals . Any frequencies can providel? Thanks
How does this game works on windows 10? Every time when I start the game it crashes and goes back to desktop. I have real traffic and EHAM sector in it.
23:00 Didn't he blow the frequency readback when he said "27.2 for departure" when it was actually 127.2
I still use this advice when controlling LAX.
Good video but it needs massive volume boost.
Do you know if there is way to update Tracon! 2012 to the latest airac cycle?
Without question this is one of the best videos on Pilotedge anyone has done. Will you do the rest of the I-ratings for pilotedge?
Question: shouldn't the traffic pattern begin at 1,000ft above airport elevation (in this case 1,400ft) and not at an altitude much higher than that (in your video, 2,000ft +)? Isn't that the rule? I appreciate the video and thoughtful flight planning, just curious about your altitude in the traffic pattern. Thank you and great video!
I'm just getting into PilotEdge and understanding the charts. This is superbly and straightforwardly explained (without confusing things with rare exceptions) and I feel I'm quickly climbing the steep learning curve, which is great fun!
Very comprehensive demo, excellent presentation
This was the best video on I-1 I have found. You did an amazing job from start to finish. Really helped me. Thank you so much.
Please tell me how do I see the sid and the star in the game? Tank you !
Nicely organized and presented.
Hi friend, how didi you do to make appears the SID and STAR? and It´s possible have VFR aircraft inbound to the aerodrome? Thank you for the Videos.
In the Tracon editor, click on your aircraft while holding down the CTRL button. The ALT button can be used in the same way, to see the distance of one aircraft from something, or to see if two aircraft will conflict.
It is possible create a new scenary? Do you know how?
Jesus loves you and died for your sins. Repent ye for the kingdom of God is at hand, Salvation is given to those who follow and obey the Lord Jesus. This world is temporary and you will only get temporary pleasures from the things within this world, so look to God for he is everlasting, promise keeping, stable, loving and mighty and just in power. Look to the eternal things in life, Repent and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of your sins and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. Time is running out!!
Is there a way to create your own airspace, say your home airport?
Hi Mark, AWESOME video! Would you consider making some for other I-ratings?
Good grief! Where’s the bus. :)
15 minutes in and I have a pretty long list of why this is a garbage simulator.
Hi mate I'm very new to this type of game been playing tower 3d pro. My question is what key do I press to give voice commands.

What happened to sw3768 at around 9 minutes? After handoff they said "14k descending 12k," but at 9 minutes they started climbing to 16k? Was that supposed to happen?
Thank you for having these tutorials!! How did you install the real traffic? I have the Steam version and when I tried to simply copy and over-write the files, it doesn't appear to work.
Hiss filter please
Excellent!
john wayne reassigned runways in 2014. was wondering what happened there. Oh and thanks for the vid!
As you probably know, the runway number is determined by the closest magnetic compass heading to a round number. The 'old' runway number, 19 (RL) indicates that the closest magnetic heading for the runway was 190 degrees. When the Earths, magnetic north pole shifts enough to make that heading "wrong" by too much (as I recall, if the magnetic heading changes by more than 5 degrees), the FAA requires that the airport renumber the runway. As you can imagine, that takes a lot of advance notice and coordination with controllers and chart publishers! --and it slightly messes up old videos like mine. :-)
Why were you talking to Socal approach on 127.2, when on the plate I read 121.3 @ 58:05?
I'm talking on 127.2 because that's the frequency I was assigned by clearance delivery in my original clearance beginning around 50:00, and was never issued a frequency change until I went to the tower frequency at the outer marker. The 'APP CON' frequency on an instrument approach plate is simply a 'starter' frequency you can use if you're flying VFR and want to pick up an approach clearance to that airport. Depending on where you are, the controller would almost immediately hand you off to the 'correct' frequency for the controller handling the sector you're flying in.
@@markhargrove ok, thx
Mark.... You should monetize your videos via Google. Looks like you have 1000+ subscribers. A few ads here and there would not be too bothersome and would perhaps motivate to do more great videos. I think 8k views = $8 bucks but, what the heck! LOL
Thanks Mark, great videos. 27:40 As you said, in the event of lost comms, "Direct" means: after SLI, go direct to clearance limit.
You talked for an hour and this never felt long. Clearly you prepared and it shows. I especially enjoyed the 3D models of the airspace. Very well done, very informative, and very much appreciated.
Good series of videos. Mark @35:30 you are not going to be flying the SLI 308 radial. 308 is, infact, your magnetic track. You will be flying along the SLI 128 radial.. I noticed you make reference to the 308 radial several times subsequently. All those references are incorrect accordingly. You can see the radial being reported on the GNS530 bottom left in this video @43:56. The reason I am mentioning this is that for new folk learning and starting out with vor navigation, the difference between track and radial is a source of confusion and so this doesn't really help, but they are the kind of folk likely to be watching this..
Really good point. Here's what I don't get. The "plane" has a G530. Use the GPS but have the VOR as a backup. Especially to stay out of the restricted. Plus, I don't get the use of his COMs when landing. Why not put ATIS in COM2 and continue to listen on COM1 with ATC. Keep the TWR on COM1 standby and flip to that when needed. Dropping off with ATC seems annoying for them.
Excellent video...thank you
@ 46:20 I noticed something wrong ... when you contacted SOCAL I noticed your transponder was off *tisk tisk
Just started trying to figure it out. The Tab key is voice key. The problem is the program is recognizing my voice, but the flights aren’t.
How do you know which frequency to hand the planes off to? Is that in the manual once you download it?
Yes, as I recall. I've not played this in years, but that's what I remember. There is a chart/diagram in the manual with frequencies for each sector.
Mark Hargrove Thanks! This ATC stuff is addictive!😎
Michael Sookochoff: it is -- and when you get done with this one check out ATC Pro -- far more realistic and challenging.
wish you were still making videos! I understand a few things have changed with this airspace, the mini route being gone now, but still very helpful!
I wish I had time to make more videos too! Someday!
Mark Hargrove well the ones you did make are much appreciated!
Hi Mark, I've been looking at Gaming PC's for ATC Pro and Tower 3D. Did you purchase a gaming PC for these programs? Any suggestions? Right now I have a fairly powerful desktop, but it only has 6 gig RAM and i believe I need 8 or more, especially If I want to load both ATC Pro & Tower 3D.
I cannot really advise you on this in terms of what the minimum workable config might be. My desktop was configured as a moderately-high-end system before I installed any of the various ATC sims I've tried. I'm running with 16GB of memory and a Nvidia GTX 980Ti graphics card. That's way overkill for just at ATC sim.
Thank you again, sir.
Mark these are awesome tutorials! Thank you. I've been looking at this, ATC Pro and a couple of tower programs. In your opinion which tower and radar program are the most realistic? I'm a previous Air Traffic Controller who worked in the tower and Tracon. Miss the experience.
At this moment, I think ATC Pro is the most realistic.
Thank you for your response. One more question, is Tower! 3D the most realistic tower program. I'm looking to purchase both a tower and Tracon program.
That's the only tower sim I've ever tried, so I don't have any other points of comparison. As I recall, it was just "OK".
Thank You!
I see that no one has posted in a couple of years here. I really appreciate this video. I haven't flown since 1985 and never have flown into class B airspace and I have lots of questions. This video is really covering Class B LAX really well. Thank you!
the voices are shit.
I am giving pilot edge a close look, and your presentation is very well done. Will be watching your entire series. Thank you. S. Sumner
PilotEdge is probably the single most important learning tool any student pilot (either private pilot student or instrument student) can add to their training regimen. In addition, it adds a dimension for serious simmers that can't be truly experienced any other way. I highly recommend it.
Thank you for your response.
Hi Mark, by any chance do you have the LAX sector as you use in the turotrials and such since the old forum has been scrapped Thanks!
I'm sorry, but I don't. I uninstalled this game many years ago and don't have any of the files any more. You might, btw, look at ATCPro instead of this sim -- it's much, much more accurate.
Hi Mark, I am a newbie at this game and i find your videos very useful. However i can't seem to find your asx files so i can use. Could you upload a new link to download the asx files for it please? thank you
I was long-ago asked by the publisher to remove any custom files I'd linked. Further, I've not played this game for years and years -- there is a much better ATC simulation (ATC Pro) available.
Mark Hargrove ok. Thank you
Your videos are so so good and very well explained !! Thank you Mark.
I currently have no access to a network like Pilotedge, or even a flight sim for that matter, but that will hopefully be changing over the next couple of months. The workshops from Pilotedge and these two companion videos from yourself have been a huge help to a complete beginner like myself. Especially these two videos with the practical flight carried out after the planning stage really do help to make things a lot clearer. The way that you explain how to plan your route and appropriate altitudes are well explained but the reasons why exactly are what really help to learn. Thanks Mark!
