It's about time I got back onto the cockpit for some IFR poor weather flying and put in some hours for the VA I fly for, Andras Meridian Airlines.
The A2A Simulations Accu-sim Piper Comanche 250, which has just been released for Xbox, is an absolute dream to fly and it's a good challenge flying it in these conditions.

I love the Comanche in MSFS. Yes I agree it does immediately show the gap between A2A and everybody else. The Fokker F28 is probably the closest other aircraft in terms of quality and steam guage goodness. I always have ATC on VATSIM logging off the second I want to make a video so I know that feeling. I really like the polish of your videos, keep it up!
awwwww. MINT touchdown mate
Many thanks Peter. The Comanche really is exceptional isn’t it! Can’t wait to see what they do next! Yes I don’t think I’ll be using Pilot2ATC much more. Interested to see what BeyondATC brings when it comes out.
There’s a ton of fairly decent videos out there on how to pilot. You’re clearly not one and don’t pretend to be. Major tick for that. I value this video because you demonstrate what it’s like to be someone in my situation; a simmer with an absolute love for their Piper Comanche showing it off. It’s you, your dog, and your Comanche exploring the world (with a small airline narrative going on). Really relate to that.
Lol I appreciate your honesty. I do have some flying training from some years ago, as far as first solo, but it is a rare thing for me to do IFR, especially in an aircraft like this. I think it's important every now and then to challenge yourself to find your weak spots.
@@Dreamsofwings if you do more IFR, especially ILS stuff, I’ll definitely be watching closely. Sounds like we might both be neglecting our IFR a bit.

What a wonderful, funny and entertaining video.
I'm completely in love with this plane and started a roadtrip along the U.S. West Coast from San Diego until I reach the Canadian border with the option to cross border and go to Alaska (not sure if I should wait for spring or even summer flying live)
I try to stick to the procedures and start getting them into my muscle memory. I had a few troubles on my way with the internal oil pump and carburetor icing.
Coming to the point, I operate always by the book using the power setting table. And always lean to the optimal setting (about -100). It was a little bit irritating watching you doing it not (or have i missed it).
Would be interesting what you or someone else thinks about it. It makes me feel uncomfortable knowing I'm not using the "right" power setting (even fiddling with RPM getting it 100% spot on)
Many thanks and apologies for irritating you! I mentioned in the video that I wasn’t using the EDM to lean but was using the EGT and listening to the engine. Not as accurate as you perhaps.
good job - takes some nerve and faith in these conditions when the plane has no vertical AP. Round of applause well deserved ;)
Very kind of you sir!
You deserve a round of applause for that touchdown in that weather. Good job. Try FS Hud, adds a lot of immersion and easier to manage than P2ATC.
Many thanks.
Great simulator, one can quickly understand how easy it is for things to go wrong in IFR conditions. I would be interested in seeing flights were there's an emergency (in-flight engine failure, severe thunderstorm build up whilst in-flight, fuel leakage, avionic failure - comms/nav, carb heat failure etc.).
great intro, great video!
Cheers mate 🍻
Thanks for this.
As we would say in Scotland, it is 'gey dreich'.
Had the plane 2 wks now, & I've tested the book specs on long range and high altitude flights - impressively accurate! Though, like in the real world the performance is not spot-on.
Ah many thanks! Yes I think it helps immensely that the owner of A2A owns one and can focus the realism as a result.
Currently flying the Bell 222b and Hawk T1 both excellent but I must admit this Comanche has wet my appetite some what 😊
I need to get back in the 222b. It’s a beautiful helicopter!
Great vid bud, nice co pilot u got there at least it's not that dude sitting on the toilet 😂🤣 I still can't get over that
Yes was not expecting that 🤣
@@Dreamsofwings 😂 🤣 always a great laugh on this channel
Spot on Thank Youuu
Many thanks Mike!
I also love this module,
It is rather wonderful isn’t it. So immersive.
Great video really nice what kind of ATC do you use
Many thanks! Pilot2atc
Thanks for this, if only I could land like that. Is that the regular Newcastle airport? It looks better than most
Many thanks! This is the ORBX EGNT so a bit more detail.
Great job on landing. You mentioned an ILS, is that the approach you have chosen? You didn’t seem to catch the GS
Many thanks, yes flying an ILS approach in that weather was quite a challenge.
Good job...............👌Next time you fly into Newcastle gis a call and I will meet up and have a coffee with you ( I live 4 miles from the airport....).
Cheers Alan! I’ll remember that! Was actually up there before Christmas going to Otterburn, had an issue with one of the group leaving a bag behind at the airport. The team there were fantastic! Lovely people up your neck of the woods!
What version of newcastle was that ? I use Orbx
Hi, thanks for the video! How did you get the dog there? thx!
Many thanks! The hairy sidekick is from the Gotfriends Man’s Best Friend Avatar pack www.got-friends.com/products/avitar-mans-best-friend
How did you lock the primer? Mine just pumps again.
I use the mouse wheel to lock and unlock.
hi! have you ever had problems with the TRK autopilot? for me, it just doesn't track the GPS route
It’s a bit like I said in the video, it’s an old autopilot system that struggles to follow tight turns on a GPS route. Sometimes you either have to disconnect early and manually fly the tight curve or use heading mode to anticipate the curve and then reconnect to TRK. Think of it more like holding a biscuit in front of a dog’s nose rather than the dog being on a rail track :)
@@Dreamsofwings oh, thank you for your reply. I used to fly without problems because this autopilot was very accurate for me but after a two-month break it now seems to work differently, and I think something is wrong
@@nieschlafen ah ok, no it shouldn’t really have changed from what you saw a few months ago
You forgot to check the stall warning vane on the left wing and you didn't check the play on the rudder. Don't feel bad, I haven't seen a single content creator check the rudder to date.
Lol, I have done in my previous videos. Well spotted
Dog in front, humans in the back........CORRECT!
I'm not sure it is entirely safe to have a dog in the copilot's chair.😂
So long as it’s passed all it’s exams it isn’t an issue 😉
How is the xbox version compared to the pc?
I don’t have it myself but hearing very good things from people who have.
Straight from the horses mouth, there is no difference. Everything you’ve seen in the PC version is in the Xbox version.
@@Dreamsofwings wow fenomenal achievement 👏🏼
That was wrong runway
What do you mean?
Going off wind would it not been 25 ? Just asking 😊
@@agenttechstreams3891 where are you getting wind from? Had a quick check and as ATC had gone down I can see I checked QNH but not wind. This was following a simbrief route using live weather and wind direction might not have been same at destination as departure.
That’s fine was just a question good video btw when I fly egnt as it is my base on neofly mostly rw25 I hate runway 7?approach IFR anyway
Best intro music I've heard in forever.
Thanks! It is rare I add music so glad this one worked!
