Another video on using the Air Traffic Control in X-Plane 11. Thanks to the ATC, a large jet flew past just before landing (~22:20), making things a bit harder.
I dabbled a lot of FS back in the early days and all I had was a flight plan using VORs to go from one airport to another. Thanks for showing how to fly in XP11 using ATC. Can't wait to get my hands on one!
That video was very helpful, thanks! First time Flight Sim user and I know how to take off and land, but that's about it. Your video has given me the confidence to do more than just circle an airport lol. I'll start by copying your flight :)
This helped me so much because I just started the x plane realistic things and am planning oon becoming a better pilot, so this helped me greatly by learning and understanding the Cessna aircraft better :)
I purchased xplane 11 prior to doing my research unfortunately. So with buying a new desktop and learning I require an adapter for the monitor connection, for my older monitor, I hope to install the program shortly and learn to fly. Great video. I learned a lot!
Fantastic job, I really learned a lot. Yes, there are some things that I would like changed in the program it will come as more people are requesting changes. Thanks again.
Hi Jason -great video. I have been flying FSX since its birth and have flown XPlane since V8 and have always found the ATC on XP either non-existent or an annoyance but your video here with XP v11 gives me another perspective, demonstrating that the ATC does indeed work and pointing out bits of the 172 autopilot that I had not noticed before. Now I can catch up with more realistic flights vying with FSX , notwithstanding the odd heavy being directed through my flight-path :) - do people really think that the default ATC on FSX is perfect? - I must smile at the odd comment below to the actual perfection of your flying -hey, nobody is perfect! Your lesson worked fine for me. Thanks a million - worth a subscription!
Well, it was eye opening in the sense of how amazing XP11 is. I installed it and am learning it little by little. I use 10.51 more because I know it well, but 11 is certainly compelling. Your PC video quality is very high because the AFL 172 looks beautiful. I'm still trying to make it work nicely with both 10.51 and 11. Not easy.
X-Plane 11 is, as a lot of people know who have this Flight Simulator, so realistic. So even if, like me, you never became a commercial pilot or your love for flying is an important human aspect in life you always can pretend being a pilot. And using all the instruments as it should be. Thumb up from The Netherlands.
You have done everything very well ,The only think I recommend on the Turn coordinator when turn ,make all of your turns Standard Rate turn per IFR .Thank you
Thanks for sharing. I'm a private pilot with about 200 hours of SE time. Going to be using X-plane 11 to "pre-fly" my short cross country flights out of KGAI. Real world ATC would have been busted for that oh-shit moment when the 737 buzzed overhead. I imagine your plane could have gone inverted, but wake turbulence is unpredictable. BTW, I find landings and non-autopilot aircraft control in the sim is far more difficult than in the real world. There's no substitute for the visual perspective, sounds, etc. Of course, sim is a whole lot less expensive! It would be nice if sim let you change your aircraft number and the readback voice, but that's not a game changer.
I'm simming on the Rift. I'm using flyinside atm. I've always used FSX but FSX kept crashing for me, probably an OOM error. Can't really imagine going back to simming flat after trying it in VR. It's a whole different ballgame. Next step: get my PPL and an old Cessna 150 :)
I know we joked about the 747 passing above the Cessna, but a lot of you weren't around in September of 1978, when a commercial airliner and a Cessna 172 were in the same type of scenario, and the outcome was very tragic. Pacific Southwest Airlines (PSA) flight 182, a Boeing 727, and the Cessna 172 with an instructor and a student pilot, were involved in a mid-air collision, both aircraft crashed into neighborhoods in San Diego, CA and 144 people lost their lives, including 9 on the ground. :-( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PSA_Flight_182
As a real world pilot and plane owner, I noticed that you adjusted the flaps on final at a speed of around 130 knots indicated air speed (KIAS). Trust me, if you did that on a real airplane, you would rip the wings off or at least cause structural damage to the airframe. If you want to fly with realism, it would be to your advantage to learn the markings on the air speed indicator. All those pretty colors are put there for a reason.
I noticed that, I always have the lockheed blackbirds crash on mine all the time ha, how do you get jets flying around? I only have other Cessna, and Blackbirds?
If you want other planes , that will fly around while you are playing , then you will need to install X-LIFE , it is a plugin , there is a free version and a pay ( extended ) version , but the free version is very very very NICE ! You can download it here : jardesign.org/x-life/www/ *NOTE* ..... It says ' For X-Plane 10 ' but it also works for X-Plane 11 !
Excellent..of all the vids I watched on ILS approach this is the one I learnt the most from as you went through methodically from soup to nuts. Thank you sir. edit:Was expecting you to show the glide path on the map and how did you know when to activate nav on approach?
I had to fly a single engine from San Diego to Rapid City SD. the Pilot would be awoken to change Nav. It made me absolute hate single engine planes...hour after hour just hanging there!!! Love the Baron Twin!!!!
Just got started with X-Plane. Your videos are extremely helpful. Can you tell me what keyboard commands you use to zoom in to see the airport and also the Cessna cowling?
Looks like you were originally tuning-in to the ILS frequency for RW-25 Right on NavCom 1 with 111.10 at the 20:50 mark, but then your radio configuration ended-up tuned-in to RW-25 Left on 119.90 which is probably more consistent with standard landing procedure at LAX. I think they generally take off from the 2 interior runways 25R and 24L and land on the exterior runways to help with separation. There apparently was a major fatal accident that happened on 24L in 1991 when a 737 was cleared to land and it hit a twin turbo prop waiting for takeoff on the same runway further down the runway. The FAA recommended separating traffic that way but they apparently did not put it into practice until 2004 when another accident almost happened with a 747 landing on the same runway 24L and 737 was lined up and waiting for takeoff 200 feet beneath the path of the 747 landing right above it. Talk about wake turbulence! Anyway, appreciate the the video and you sharing your experience using ATC and AP in X-plane. I picked up a few tips on some things with waypoints in the maps feature and using AP for headings, ascents, holding altitude and the ILS. I know the purpose of the video was to show those features and not how to execute a perfect flare on landing or turn away from wake turbulence on final approach after you had spent time recording an entire video demonstrating other features. Those pointers are helpful in their own way but we should all be willing to show a little humility and grace towards others in the aviation and sim community who work to share their knowledge by recording, editing, narrating and uploading videos with helpful content. Even a seasoned, celebrity actor and pro aviator like Harrison Ford can make a mistake like missing a runway and landing on a taxiway at KSNA. Aviating, navigating, communication and flying in complex airspace is challenging and good pilots never stop learning things in the industry, ever. Keep filiming, keep sharing, keep flying!
I'm learning a lot thanks to your videos. I did this exactly as you did and worked just fine. Then I tryed it in my home base flying from SCEL to SCTB and the ATC take me directly to a crash agaisnt a hill. I don't know why. Maybe I should have set a route.
Thanks Jason just what I needed , getting XPlane installed and learning .One question , the Autopilot turn on and off keyboard commands ? Yes do it theru Yoke .Maybe Video you did on that ? keep up good work.
Nice Demo, Jason! Pilot's response voice should be a totally different voice from voice responses of other aicraft, a 'My Voice' male or female voice, selected upon pilot's option in setup. Yellow text should pop up in pilot's front view for the convenience of users having three monitors. ATC should keep the pilot well above or below large jets ahead on approach to avoid turbulence, and/or no aircraft over flies the pilot out of cleared landing order. Have sent this demo to other XP Sim friends not yet upgraded to XP-11. BruceBuilds on the Gateway.
The turbulence just before landing, that was really special.
thank you so much for these tutorials. I know they're 2 years old now, but they are REALLY helpful....Really like your channel...
Thank you so much. More than ATC, I learnt about the ILS approach with autopilot.
I dabbled a lot of FS back in the early days and all I had was a flight plan using VORs to go from one airport to another. Thanks for showing how to fly in XP11 using ATC. Can't wait to get my hands on one!
That video was very helpful, thanks! First time Flight Sim user and I know how to take off and land, but that's about it. Your video has given me the confidence to do more than just circle an airport lol. I'll start by copying your flight :)
Whoa, I can't believe ATC allowed that airliner to pass right over your head! The autopilot certainly didn't like that wake turbulence. 🤣
Followed your whole flight to KLAX, learned a lot, thank you!
This is such an underrated video, thanks J.
Your tutorials are the best! Thank you!
You did what you said you would do - you taught us how to interact with ATC and you did it very well
Best video on CZcams for understanding X-Plane 11 ATC. Also, a great channel for RNAV/GPS
This helped me so much because I just started the x plane realistic things and am planning oon becoming a better pilot, so this helped me greatly by learning and understanding the Cessna aircraft better :)
Thanks Jason !
Your vids have helped me tons, especially since I switched fromfs2004 to xplane 11.
Great Training Videos Learned from all of them
I purchased xplane 11 prior to doing my research unfortunately. So with buying a new desktop and learning I require an adapter for the monitor connection, for my older monitor, I hope to install the program shortly and learn to fly. Great video. I learned a lot!
Thanks for the great walkthrough, detailed and clear.
Thanks for this. I am new to flight sim and XPlane 11 is great so foar. Soooo much for me to learn! Very exciting!
I really love this step by step video for beginners, hope that more video like this . Thanks
Thank you for sharing the video, I've learned a lot.
Great video. I personally learned a lot. Can't wait to get home and try it. Thanxxxxx
Fantastic job, I really learned a lot. Yes, there are some things that I would like changed in the program it will come as more people are requesting changes. Thanks again.
Great video and commentary. Thank you
Your videos are really helpful. Thanks!!
Thank you for your videos. They help me so much.
Genius! Thanks for the explanation. I was having problems with the ATC haha
Thanks Jason, keep up the great work. Nice video .
EXCELLENT Video Sir ! I hope you are still making videos. Thank You for this highly instructional and well done video.
I hope to create some more in the next month or so.
Informative. Well done! Thank you!

Great video, Jason! I'm going to try it this evening. Best regards from The Netherlands.
Learned a lot from this video. Thanks man!
Thank you for the very educational video.
watched this a few times, many thanks
Great stuff! Learned much!
Very nice example for us, thank you

love your videos thanks ...take care.
Thanks you taught me my first flight . Newquay to lands end .
I learned a lot! Thank you
Very nice video, Jason...!
Skews me while I land my heavy jet over your head lol. Seriously though, great instruction I will probably watch it many times. Thanks!
Very interesting, I learned something.
As usual awesome introduction. Regards
Great vid makes it easy thank you
thank sooomuch for the videos they do help a lot thank you again
Excellent clip Thanks!
Lol that 737 flew over a Cessna, caused wake turbulence and landed on the taxiway.
I think approach tower did a great job! :D
747* and it crashed lol.
Caution: wake turbulence. Lol.
Whats funny about that?
Livin that class B life
Sensei Dekkers edd
What sim controls are you using? Great video by the way!

At least we know the game does have a detailed jet turbulence simulation lol
Feliscatus Xu LOL also love that ATC didn’t care that there was a huge ass jet right above him. 😄
@@unleashedfx7220 lmao
great tutorial , thanks!
wow that was great thx for the lesson
Cool video 👍
Im playing this game on mt HTC VIVE and im LOVING it. I bought it recently and its absolutely amazing being able to press all the buttons in vr
I'm simming on the Rift. I'm using flyinside atm. I've always used FSX but FSX kept crashing for me, probably an OOM error. Can't really imagine going back to simming flat after trying it in VR. It's a whole different ballgame. Next step: get my PPL and an old Cessna 150 :)
Thanks Jason i would like to see more of this!! how would you go about setting your own flight plans from state to state?
pretty nice video instruction, thanks
great video, thanks
You make it look easy.
Thanks so much for your help

It seems bizarre to me that they don't simulate flap failure. Seems to come up often enough.
Thanks so much Jason
OMG ! That jet before you didn't land !!! it "crashed" at 23:38 in that field before the runway ! so it did an go around ! LMAO !
That was the first time that ever happened I was too focused on managing the turbulence LOL.
Well , you have it on tape ! XD
I noticed that, I always have the lockheed blackbirds crash on mine all the time ha, how do you get jets flying around? I only have other Cessna, and Blackbirds?
If you want other planes , that will fly around while you are playing , then you will need to install X-LIFE , it is a plugin , there is a free version and a pay ( extended ) version , but the free version is very very very NICE ! You can download it here : jardesign.org/x-life/www/ *NOTE* ..... It says ' For X-Plane 10 ' but it also works for X-Plane 11 !
Cheers, how do you get the game to recognise XLife?
Excellent..of all the vids I watched on ILS approach this is the one I learnt the most from as you went through methodically from soup to nuts. Thank you sir. edit:Was expecting you to show the glide path on the map and how did you know when to activate nav on approach?
Now I understand why they call it the "wake" turbulence... it fkin rocks the plane behind till the pilot wakes up.
thank you for this tutorial
Great video, I like your tutorials. Though you could probably edit out (or speed up) the flying parts where nothing is happening. Cheers mate.
I had to fly a single engine from San Diego to Rapid City SD. the Pilot would be awoken to change Nav. It made me absolute hate single engine planes...hour after hour just hanging there!!! Love the Baron Twin!!!!
TY for this!
WOW you actually got into turbulence when the jet flew over you!!! You need to report the near miss to the controller once you land. lol
Why are the readbacks vocalized, but not the actual requests? Kind of takes me out of the ATC experience.
They are vocalized
@@alexsurh1472 Not the initial requests. Only the read backs
X-plane ATC is complete garbage. Why is there only ATC for IFR? It’s really disappointing.
@@TheGbelcher because you can fly vfr without contacting atc lol
Saira Asif Really in B C D airspace?? NOT!!
Thanks you a lot, one more subscriber and a like
Nice video
Do wish X-Plane 11 had 'Traffic Zapper.' It came with FSUIPC when I had FSX-SE. Other than that, I do appreciate this, thanks!
I love how within like 15 seconds you drop flaps in the yellow and then a 74 flies over you by a hundred feet and rocks you with wake turbulence lmao
Instant karma
Just got started with X-Plane. Your videos are extremely helpful. Can you tell me what keyboard commands you use to zoom in to see the airport and also the Cessna cowling?

Coming in for approach! Giant 747 comes right over him. "Tower we a have a bit of turbulence but nothing much." Lol
nice tutorial!
Excellent Jason. Could you point me in the direction of the scenery add on that is evident on this flight?
Great video. Can you also make a video of what controllers you have and how to set them up in the simulator ?
Nice-Thanks!
Thanks Jason just what I needed , getting XPlane installed and learning .One question , the Autopilot turn on and off keyboard commands ? Yes do it theru Yoke .Maybe Video you did on that ? keep up good work.
Appreciate the help immensely. Maybe I missed it from another video but I don't understand how you set up the approach .
Can you tell me which keyboard commands you use for autopilot on/off? Thanks for the video, very helpful.
Very helpful video. Just need to know what the "keyboard assignment" is for activating the Autopilot function. TY
Nice Demo, Jason! Pilot's response voice should be a totally different voice from voice responses of other aicraft, a 'My Voice' male or female voice, selected upon pilot's option in setup.

Hi John, love your videos. New to Xplane. Right now I'm using a mouse for yoke. Anyway to control senitivity ?
