I am a real world Airbus pilot with thousands of hours flying the real aircraft and thought it would be fun to have a look at the detailed simulations of the 'bus in MSFS and X Plane. Hopefully you find this useful and it brings another perspective to your simulation. Any thoughts or comments are welcome!

Still a struggle for me!
@@320SimPilotplease dont rename the channel. 😂
Never expected I would consider a Boeing. Yet here I am. Might even put one on the stand and follow along with a trip from LHR to MAN. 😊
Lol
@@cintula82 Yeah, hope he keeps the name, the A320 is an amazing piece of engineering and it's thanks to him, I learnt so much with his A320 tutorials! Now looking forward to delving into this one!
There is nothing like getting MSFS training from someone with real-life experience in the aircraft. We all want to make flight simming as realistic as possible, and knowing that your videos are based on real world experience makes them invaluable. Thank you so much for taking the time to make such high quality videos!
Amazing work on A320 and now on 787. Thank you and keep up the good work!
Glad you’re enjoying them Lucas, and thank you!!
Yes! Here we go, the tutorial series of the 787 from the best tutor from the the community. A made a playlist so I can store every tut video in there. Thank you very much!
Thanks very much for taking the time to produce these videos, congrats on your move up to heavy from the Airbus. FYI, you can also load fuel, Cargo, ZFW and number of passengers on the CDU. INIT REF/Index/Settings/Weight + Balance...enter the info. Saves faffing with the MS stuff
Yeah, I use GSX and typically turn on power, go to the weight+balance page, set payload to 0% and then fuel to something like 6000 lbs, and then I call the fuel truck and after it has arrived I hit the "Set from OFP" button and it syncs up the refueling very nicely. The weight and Balance page will also tell you your CG% if you want to use it for performance calculations.
Thank you for your kind words! Those are great tips, I’ll do that in future!
@@320SimPilotfound out in the news that low cost flydubai is also ordering 787s too.
@@320SimPilotin yur sim how do u update yur navigation database including also ARIAC ?
I guess, @320SimPilot - like most of us - uses Navigraph, and this will update your Nav database according to the AIRAC cycles. If you don't want to go with a subscription, you're pretty much stuck with an outdated one.
It's so comforting to have your 'no-nonsense' and straightforward tutorials back once again in this super cool aeroplane. With the somewhat limited functionality inn the currently available MSFS flight models, the amount of information (and automation) yet to come is really exciting. Thank you as always for taking the time and troble to inpart the knowledge you have gained in the coorrect way to set up and fly the 787......your obvious growing appreciation into the amazing features of the aircraft are infectious......I look forward to many more tutorials (and updates in the functions available). Great video Captain 👌👍
Thanks so much Vutti, really appreciate it as always! Indeed it’s really grown on me and hopefully it will for you all! I’ve been so impressed by what the default avionics have to offer too.
Hi Capt. thank you for taking the time to make these tutorial videos. I love flying the Horizon -9. Amazing distance, for a little bit shorter version of the 787 family.
So happy about this New series. Really looking forward to it ❤
Absolutely outstanding video. Nice pace and brilliant explanations. Looking forward to part 2. Doesn’t seem nearly as scary coming from the bus already. Thanks for your time and effort in making these videos. Greatly appreciated.
way back to your first couple a320 videos, you have inspired my passion for planes and cant wait for these new series!
Thank you! Been waiting for this, appreciate the time, effort and detail you've put into this.
THIS IS WHAT IVE BEEN WAITING FOR! Thank you so much for this. Perfectly done!
Thanks for the great video, it’s great to hear a real 787 pilot tuition, I have been learning to fly the 787 since your 1st video, and this video is another massive help, so thank you and I’m looking forward to learning more from you.
Glad to help and thanks for watching!
Been eagerly awaiting this one:-) Thank you so much Capt.
MUCH appreciated! Takes you a lot of work to make these vids but it is so helpful for us amateurs! Very detailed instructions for us to copy and then enjoy flying this amazing plane. I am a a320 fan too but for long hauls, I wanted to add this plane. Now I can ! TY. Greetings from Amsterdam
Thank you very much for explaining in this much detail, eagerly looking forward for more videos on this
Brilliant. Idea for a 787 stream, VIR107X, Heathrow to Nassau
Fantastic video! Looking forward to all of your 787 videos while enjoying the past A320 content.
Thanks a lot!
Thanks for this tutorial! Especially the details behind many of the steps, which cleared up a few mysteries for me. Looking forward to the next one!
The one I’ve been waiting for 😅thank you so so much for all the time and effort you put into the production - you’re a ⭐️ 😊
Yes I am up in the air many many thanks for your astounding videos. Things always seem to fall into place when you explain things. Cannot wait for the next. 🤗🤗
Amaizing! thanks for taking your time and share with the community your wonderful tutorials!
Thank you very much! Looking forward to more tutorials - and again congratulations on the new airplane type!
Glad you enjoyed it and thank you, really appreciated!
Hi Captain, many thanks for posting this interesting video, much appreciated. You are an amazing instructor, the way you explain it all is simply WAAAW, nice, easy and not forced. I always enjoy your videos and I’m looking out for the others to come.
Thank you so much, more to come!
what an enormous amount of information you share with us. very helpful, thanks very much!
Thanks very much!! Really looking forward to future tutorials - reigniting interest in the 787 for me
Excellent, glad to hear it!
Great video! Will have to go back through it more slowly so I can annotate my checklist. Thanks for doing this!!
Fantastic work! Looking forward to more!
Thanks Tim!
Thank you for your excellent videos in the 787. They are very informative helpful.
Great tutorial very well explained! Thank you!
Great video as always. Looking forward to the future videos as learning a lot already!
Awesome, thank you!
I was just finishing one of your 3-year-old A321 videos and I saw this one suggested. Congrats on the upgrade to a "heavy", I have flown as a pax in the B787-9, LAX to Auckland NZAA, New Zealand- where I'm originally from. Other than rather loud whining hydraulic pumps that seem to go on and off, a very quiet and smooth ride.
Welcome back! Great tutorial
Truly great videos and your time and effort being put in this is really appreciated.
Great start to what I hope to be a full series! May I recommend the FTSim+ sound packs. They have a really nice one for the 787 family with support for all variants.
Perfect, I will look into that!! Thanks for watching!
Love your tutorials. Keep it up. You make a fantastic instructor
I appreciate that, thank you!
Just commenting to a) thank you on this great tutorial and b) tell you that I love to listen to you! :D You speak very softly and it's sooo much easier on the ears than the usual youtuber style... Keep it up!
That’s great to hear, thank you for the kind words! Will do!
Superb Tutorial! You are a great instructor. Much Appreciated! :)
Thank you soooo much!!! Wish you all the best.
Fantastic video, can't wait for the next one
Excellent, thanks for the time taken to put this video together
My pleasure!
Thank you I love your teaching style
That’s really kind of you, thank you!
Amazing tutorial. It really helped me to understand the setup! :)
I'm flying on the 787-9 and 787-8 with TUI on December 12th to Jamaica for a cruise and then a holiday in Jamaica, Yes I'm excited for the holiday, but I'm just as excited to be flying long haul on a Dreamliner. These tutorials are perfect as I'm trying to fly the route in the sim before I travel. Thanks for all the content and your dedication to us simmers. Have you finished with the Podcasts? I rather enjoyed them, seeing what pilots do/think, especially as I work for RR (34 years service), as a NDT Inspector.
Brilliant, thankyou so much. Really enjoying learning this amazing aircraft. Thanks!
Congrats on the new type certification!
Cant wait for more tutorials that go deeper into this amazing aeroplane!
… one word … Awesome … thank you👍
Thanks for watching!
Cant lie, seeing this title after watching the A320 video brung tears to my eyes. Very well done on becoming a 787 pilot.
Eagerly waiting for Kuro 787-8 to be updated to AAU2 standard
Thanks very much for your videos, great help for me
Awesome video! Thank you for that. Finally I know how to operate a Boeing correctly. 😄
Nice to see a Boeing that does not need 200 button presses to get started :) A nice aircraft, with a great solution to arrange the displays!
Yes it was a relief to me too! It looks after itself very well
The 777 and 787 are extremely easy to set up that I’d honestly say it’s easier to set up than all the other airbus aircrafts
Awesome turorial-followed it to the letter but now I’ve been flying round for days getting dizzy!…..Can you please do one on how to get back to the ground again?😀
That was an excellent video! I taught on the 787 for 3 years for the manufacturer, but never flew the jet on the line. I am more of a 757/767/747-400,-8 guy. I am just converting from P3Dv4 to MSFT 2020. so a good review of the 787 is desired since I had a 44 year aviation career as a Pilot/Instructor/Check Airmen/FAA Examiner, now retired. I do wish they had simulated the use of the Rotary Cursor Control and the Trackpad so the impression to most is that the CDU is a touchscreen. Also, I am surprised the VSD is not available. That is such a nice display on these big screens. At 24:40 in the video, when you put in 340 for the CRZ ALT on the PERF INIT page, that will not generate an EXEC light. Very enjoyable video, if you are not an instructor, they need to make you one...
thank you sir, this is amazing 😍
Thank you! Hope you continue to have time to produce more in the series with not too long a gap between. Is there a reason why the switches seem to be mostly "down" for "on" except for the FD and arm autothrottle? Or should we forget "up and down" and think of it as "forward and back"?
Excellent tutorial may I ask what your graphic settings are, mine seem more wide angled than yours….looking forward to all your fourth coming tutorials 😊
I could hear the smile when you said “I’m a real world b787 pilot!” 😂
there is a specific hud camera view in fs, I forget the default key binding but it's one of the F keys, just press that and it focuses the hud.
I'd love a short breakdown of how you maneuver your camera, it's very smooth. I've tried to replicate it by binding WASD to translate the camera and R/F to adjust height, but I can't seem to get the speed and precision of the camera translations balanced. Great video as per usual, I owe my entire airliner experience to your videos and the FBW A320.
Thanks for the comment! I use an Xbox controller and the drone ‘showcase’ camera with the speeds reduced.
Thanks!
You’re very welcome and thank you so much!!
There's seems to be a bug on the CDU/FMS. Keep in on the pedestal position when you're making the takeoff performance calculations. If you move it upwards to the navigation display, it will always delete the takeoff speeds.
I always bring it up in the ND, where it's easier to check and monitor flight progress. I find it more comfortable in VR to have it there.
Very nice Cpt. Please let us know how you set up TOGA on your device for MSFS, as TOGA is pushing 2 engines not one. A little confused to how thats done in the control settings. THX again for your effort
Amazing tutorial! Thank you for providing such meaningful information in a such in-depth video.
I have a question because I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or it's a bug. I use Horizon 787-9 variant, I'm trimming the airplane correctly for Take Off, but when I am airborne I cannot trim it anymore (and I assume the auto-trim takes over, that's why). The PROBLEM is that I have to push the yoke pretty forward to maintain the desired path given by the Flight Director. And when I am switching to the AP, the plane corrects its attitude violently pitching down then going back up again and then stabilize itself.
It's pretty annoying.
For sim simplicity the CG as well can be computed by the sim when clicked on while empty, very much like the zfw.
Great tip, thank you!
One day pmdg will release its 787. I look forward to it
@320SimPilot I learned at the civil aviation school i'm in, that Derated Thrust is meant to be used on contaminated runways, since Flex Thrust isn't usable on wet runway unless AFM allows it.
My question would be, how do you use the different thrusts settings usually? Is it different in the 787 from the A320?
Thank you so much for your time on those videos. And hope you'll take time to answer me.
Take care
Great tutorial, thx for the great work! how did you change LB to KG?
No worries, changed in sim, it's now showing KG :)
I have missed youre videos so much sir
More to come!
@@320SimPilot can’t wait captain 🫡 but I’ve never seen.. the switch coming at all
Thanks so much for your work on this. I'm still learning the ins & outs of the Airbus planes but I do want to learn the 787's as well since I have all three versions.
Just a couple questions arose watching this:
1. I did not see how you activated the push back. Since the 787 does not seem to have the commends on the EFB as the Airbus A320's have, how do you connect the jetway, as well as activating the tug for push back? Do you use the built-in Asobo tools, or GSX Pro?
2. I plan to use my Bravo throttle for the Boeings. However, I'm confused where I physically put the throttles for take off if I use the TOGA button in the sim. I assume full forward. What if using less than full power. The Thrustmaster Airbus has the indents for MCT but the Bravo does not. Wondering where I move the physical throttles on the Bravo after take off when the auto-throttle kicks in. I'm concerned that if I move the Bravo throttles back, will that disconnect the A/T in the sim? Any thoughts?
Thanks again.
haha it was weird to hear the usual line but "real 787 pilot" instead of "a320" xD
thank you for the content!
I’ve been struggling to say it!!
Amazing thanks so much.
You're very welcome!
I believe in the sim you can just click the CG button and it will auto-calc the CG to the scratchpad, then you can insert it.
how come you moved to b787 pilot. Wishing you good luck in your pilot future. Never fail to cook a amazing clear video
Great video,
im having route discontinuity problems with the requested route. Any suggestions?
Tip: You can simply click on the "CG" button and it will auto populate the CG, just like for ZFW.
When setting the performance data on - runway conditions has numerous options to pick from.
Can you explain what conditions qualify for each option?
Obviously dry, wet, ice. But can you give any more detail?
Also - what does each option do “more than give you different power ratings” any more explanation?
Thanks! Love the videos would love more in depth and could listen to you talk about the stuff you deal with every day! Super informative!
Thanks for the masterclass ! Two questions from me : (A) how do you activate a push back and (B) how do you calibrate the thrust levers in the Horizon ? Mine are not aligned together and to my knowledge there is no user guide. Appreciate any pointers
For pushback Left Shift + P! Press it again to stop. For the throttles I currently don’t have reverse assigned (I’ve been using F2). But I’m going to look into this
@@320SimPilot - thanks. Could you also explain what the 'trimmer' is at 52'05" and what you moved to adjust it - nothing in shot - thanks
@@jinglesbluecat whichever button you have assigned to move the pitch trim
Can you share your binding setting for separating the tiller from the rudder pedals?
if you expand the loading toolbar horizontally it reveals the CG slider
Good video! I am stuck on that my LNAV won't turn on. It is stuck on off, not sure what to do
Hi again great video! Could you possibly share your pc specs?
I am now ready to fly the real 787 in real life 😅
hello.. How did you change the FD (flight director) symbol? You couldn't find a previous video, how did you turn it into a classic?
Thanks for the video man, so everytime I do a flight plan its automatic and the origin and destination always pops up in the CDU how do you do it so I can just manually put everything my self?
Thank you so much for the Detailed Tutorial. Before this video i couldnt even Turn the Batteries on XD. But aren’t you supposed to turn on the “Clock” while taking off??? Or is that only if you are flying Commercially?
Thanks! No requirement to turn on the clock during takeoff, the ‘elapsed time’ on the PFD will start at liftoff!
@@320SimPilot Alright ,thanks!
Also at the 44:57 you say the d-2 thrust is set at 49 degrees
Where did you get the number for that?
Does the 787-8 vs 9 vs 10 actually feel different to fly? Specifically hand fly? Do you get the sense you’re in a bigger plane when flying the -10?
Please, could you tell me if the "OFST" and "RTA" keys on the CDU work on this B787 model, or are they still decorative details without operating?
It's probably not simulated but do you not do an APU fire test before starting and engine fire test?
Hello there! The tutorial was amazing and it was flowing amazingly for me until I tried to make the AP to follow the route. I’m unable to make the plane follow the route. ¿How can I fix that?
Great tutorial just what is needed thank you. Though I've noticed with the horizon 787-9 with the CG which gives you the stab trim number. It seems to be incorrect. Example of a flight I did earlier today the CG was 6 and in takeoff performance calculations gave me a trim number of 9.25 though upon takeoff when V2 call out the plane did not take off. It took more speed which I'm pretty was due to incorrect CG to trim calculations.
Actually it shows CG in settings > weight and balance page something around 23, 6 might be a cruise CG
@@sanket007hzb ah thanks for that.
I always thought you would leave the autothrottle arm switch off until getting to the runway incase you accidentally hit the TOGA button whilst taxiing
On the the real one, wonder how long mouse program last for how many different pilots are using it ? How many times mechanics have to replace it, cause it wears out.
Just a Question , in my PMDG 747 there is a button with APP , VOR ; MAP and Plan , where in the 787 is the APP button on the pilots side , in the 747 the button is on the left side of TFC
For the OAT temperature, how would you put a minus value? Thanks!
Why do you set the stab trim at this point, and not during the performance CDU entry ? Is there a specific system reason for this?
If a 787 comes out for the sim that’s not part of the deluxe edition then I’ll fly it for now stickin with the fenix sim a320 and the upcoming lvfr a340
Hi am just getting to grips with the dreamliner 787-10 but having issues with all the screens going dark as i have set up the route in the CDU and i have been having problems on final approch with it deleting the route on final approch. Am on Xbox. And some times it puts the screens dark as i taxi out to a runway and it deletes the flight plan so i just wondered if i have missed something or is there a bug with it. Kind regards
