Exactly what I was wondering about a few days ago, thank you 🙏
As always, appreciate your videos and instruction. These shorter, more focused videos, are so great, and you have almost an endless number of topics that has the potential to be covered based on your experience
100% agree. I love the technical videos Em puts out about the different aircrafts. Definitely helps when understanding “why” something is done, rather than just being told to do it.
THis is great, thank you. Any chance of an ETOPS video for the A320 series of aircraft, similar to your B737 ETOPS video?
The other name for that is critical point (CP). Manual calculation is for this is achieved by that formula: D*H / O+H =. Distance * Homebound (by adding wind turning back to departed AD) is divided into sum of the outbound and homebound (including the winds bidirectionally).
That one's called point of no return
@@markusthl nope, it's critical point or as is mentioned in the video 'equal time point'.
@@emreisldag2303 yeah, never mind. Point of no return is calculated with endurance and not range.
The approach to EDDS25 has problems with the glideslope, and always brings you too low. Its a known issue with that particular runway. Interesting that it also happens with the VOR, and not just the ILS.
Fantastic video! Thank you!
So interesting ! Thank you . 👍
By he way happy Easter Emanuel .
Eme always look forward to videos perfect thank you.
Thank you for making a video about this when I asked about it. Wish more creators would do this. I’ve been simming since xplane 9 days and I learn somthing new every day from you.
Hey Captain, i have a question about PMDG 737-800. When flying over a VOR, should i insert the VOR frequency, or not. Thank you for the answers, and keep up the GOOD work?🎉😊
I asked before and apparently it's only used if you have a severe navigation failure, otherwise it's kind of just a GPS waypoint like any other stored into the database. The FMC knows where it is without needing it to be tuned
Hi, no need to tune VORs manually along the route. The plane is automatically checking its position accuracy and if there is any doubt about the position it would alert you to it.
Hello A330 driver, thank you for creating the interesting content. However, I have seen some pilots make the range arc or circle with fix functions. Is it related to ETP or EDTO/ETOPS? Thank you again!
Hi, there can be many reasons for using the range rings. ETOPS alternates, T/D backup, MSA awareness, etc.
Very interesting. I note that you said pilots *should* keep the ETP updated, however I would think that recalculating for suitable airports every time the ETP is passed would be quite time consuming and would also require knowledge of every suitable airport. I assume this is only done periodically instead of for every suitable airport, especially in areas with a high density of suitable airports?
You'd use sensible airports of course, not every single one available. Which ones those are will depend on the circumstances, but destinations of your airline would always be a good place to start with.
can i use this as markers for ETOPS points ? in the Toliss A346 i can not really use the Fix rings as they are limited to 255 miles.
But it doesn’t work on the Inibuilds A320 V2
What is that small window screen just above the MCDU? I can't seem to find it in any of my manuals.
@@ectem... Thank you!
Warst du mal bei Airberlin Pilot?
Video request: Fenix A320 Allegiant KPIE to KROA with RNAV approach
Do Boeing aircrafts have something similar to ETP?
How did you know the equal time between two potential diversion airports in the 737NG?
Please, can you show us how to program an escape route in mountainous regions?
For example in case of Cabin decompression.
I mean by using SEC-FPN.
Thank you.
I believe you can use the ALTN DEST function on the 737 to add in airports and it will show the ETA and distance to them
@@tomstravels520
I know that, but there is no symbol like ETP, so that you can see on your magenta line where the Equal Time Point is.
Boeing aircraft do not have something similar unfortunately. But on ETOPS flights you'd get your ETP on your flightplan, you can use that to program it through its coordinates into the FIX page to visualize the ETP.
Hello Emanuel,
Thanks for your reply.
Would be nice to see that in one of your future videos.
I mean how you find it in the flightplan and how you insert it in the FMC.
May be when the PMDG 777 arrives?
@@AVIATIONSOUNDEXPERT he has already done it in a previous video although admittedly I can’t remember which. Something about ETOPS
