Flying from Little River to Boonville in the Tecnam P2006T in Microsoft Flight Simulator

- When I did the cursory "first look" at the Tecnam P2006T last week, I really didn't do it justice - so today I'm working through the checklist from end-to-end, and flying a route. It's a wonderfully simulated aircraft. Note - I know I forgot to turn the fuel pumps off :) I'm terrible at multi-tasking :)
And hat-tip for the email that reminded me that some aircraft in the simulator demand a little more consideration than others :)

Thank you Jonathan, and congrats on your intro - refreshingly candid. 😊👌🏻
I really enjoy your videos and always appreciate their frequency and the variety of topics covered - to the point that whenever a new one drops, my first thought is to clear the decks and settle in with a nice cuppa!
Long may this satisfying routine continue!
😊☕
1000% agree, definitely going to be watching this start to finish.
Really enjoyed this, a nice modern slant on a twin engine with landing gear so has all the features. I'm glad I felt pretty comfortable with most of the controls without ever seeing this aircraft before so that's nice and reassuring. I don't like the attitude indicator low down there though, I think they should be at eye height but like the look of this. Great vid as always, lots of detail.
I really love all of your videos. They all have a very good balance between information and entertainment. If the title says "First look..." that usually means this will not be a tutorial but an overview what this airplane is all about. In my oppinion it is totally OK to take some shortcuts in procedures or checklists sometimes. There is a reason a lot of planes are operated by a crew onboard and a ground crew, not by a single pilot. After all it is a simulation and there are all kinds of limitations compared to real life.
Cheers :)
I couldn't agree more Tommy. That said, for my personal viewing habits, I probably would prefer the "First Look" approach. I am more of one of those kind of flyers who prefers a faster and maybe more fun flying style to just jump in, set the flight plan and go. My personal comment to Jonathan, is keep making both kinds of videos to cater to the both styles of flying. I wouldn't want to see just the more in-depth videos based on just one email received.
My computer is away getting a major upgrade, so I'm passing the time looking at videos. This plane looks very nice and I'll probably buy it. Very good in depth video by the way. To add my two cents to the first look vs in depth videos, I must say I like the latter better, mostly because I don't consider X-plane and MSFS to be "games". I like to fly the aircrafts well, as they should be flown. This said, I often bypass the tests, because I don't implement failures, if available. For example, when I was flying real piston aircraft, I of course did the magnetos checks religiously. I even brought a rental plane back to the FBO when the RPM drop was greater than normal! But in the sim I skip this and other tests. So I'm ok with shortcuts, but the most important thing to me is that things be done in the correct order. Fuel pump on before starting the engine! The videos I really can't stand are those having "tutorial" in the title, but done by people who have no idea of how to really fly a plane and do everything wrong! I would have some examples, which I will keep to myself, to "protect the innocent". I like your videos Jonathan, and especially the emphasis you place on navigation. So I finally subscribed... OK, so I guess after this long post, I really need to get my computer back! 😆
@@Gilles45 Thanks for the great feedback. As you probably have seen - I have a project going on alongside the usual content to look at real-world training materials. So I'll be covering the "real world" procedures, mnemonics, and so on soon :)
Cheers Jonathan I’ve just purchased this and thank you for your run through. It was very helpful. It’s a tricky one to start though.
It really is :) I've found cracking the throttle open and using choke tends to work 9 times out of 10 :)
@@jonbeckett we shouldn’t tell everyone, but then you wouldn’t be doing your job would you. 😂👍🏼
Overkill and your wonderful video got me purchasing this beauty this morning
Hope you enjoy it!
Hi Jonathan, Did not purchase the Technam yet but after seeing this video I will. Thanks a lot!
It's very, very good - and thankyou for the recent feedback :)
ok if a coach is on the runway.... the propper thing to do is to go round and let the coach take off lol .not doing things propperly nooooo say it isn't sooo well time to start then and another informative video Thank You. even though this was a well done video and also entertaining I simply can not purchase any more aeorplanes atm, I do have a few now. :)
Nice video! I'm waiting for this bird to appear on other stores, like Orbx. Seems like all the best planes are showing up in different stores, which isn't much of an issue, except when having to track down updates.
Yep - I tend to buy from the developers anyway, so they don't lose out on the percentage Microsoft take in the marketplace. Most developers send out an email when there is an update.
I love the P2006T - but unfortunately it's in the "Other Flight Sim"! It's a brilliant aircraft, mostly used as a trainer for multi engine rating. It really does deserve to be operated 'properly', even within a sim - the MSFS depiction looks marvellous, and I'd definitely purchase it. It's a sporty little devil, and a really good transition from something like the C172 and Boeing/Airbus. Anyway, thanks for the thorough and comprehensive demo - highly informative and entertaining as ever!
It's very well done :)
Hey, I just flew from Sea Ranch to Booneville in MSFS two days ago, cuz I wanted to take a trip I've done by car! Nice seeing airfields I'm familiar with.
Very cool!
Just got it today….man those side windows are very small. Tough to get a good view side to side when on taxi.
I wish they'd do demos on MSFS planes...
It looks nice, but its performance seems to be more of a training aircraft.
Nice video, what system are you using this on? I just purchased the 2006T but it does not show fuel quantity, pressures or oil quantity or pressures, I'm using it on xbox series x.
I'm running on a PC.
Nice video, my flight school just got one of these, so I'll likely be flying one in a couple months. How do you move all around in MSFS? I have never been able to figure that out.
I've mapped the arrow keys on the keyboard to slide me around. Beyond that, if you plug a USB XBox controller in, the analogue sticks control the drone camera :)
Hello, thx i'm looking for this livery ,thx for sharing
It's the stock livery that comes with the aircraft.
@@jonbeckett i didn't find it ,could you send it to me,thx
You are a saint. Lol
Cheers :)
My car has never failed to start in 12 year. Turn the key and engage the starter and it starts…so why are a few of the ga aircraft..hard to start or just start poorly?
Because many aircraft engines are based on 1950s designs.
Still no touchdown effects ????? When that sort they I’ll buy it
If you run FS Realistic, that adds some nice effects :)
I'm pretty sure the checklist says throttles forward before start? that seems to work? sometimes.
There are several tests of increasing throttle and monitoring the engine instruments - also switching off the magnetos and monitoring the effect. In the real world it's all about making sure each component is working as it should.
boonvile doesnt show for me on msfs premuim delixe and standard im on xbox someone help?
It should be there - it's a stock airport in the sim.
Did you notice the standby baro never moved from 29.92?
It's a bug (or rather, it was a bug)
@@jonbeckett Many thanks, love your video presentation style, love it when your new videos come out.
@@davideatterbury Cheers :)
hi! what is best option? this p2006 or the p2012? Thanks!
They are both good.
@@jonbeckett thanks!
I just brought this plane today and my rudder is not responding to my Commands
Well, bless my cotton socks, I'm first to post a comment on a JB's video!!!
Second! Lol
@@jonbeckett Eeeek!! Really?!?
Forgot to check oil
I mentioned it. You're looking for oil temperature and pressure after starting the engines usually - varies from aircraft to aircraft.
On top of wings you can check and refill your oil
@@DC-we5wx Oh - sorry - I understand what you're saying now :)
Came in on first update love your videos keep up the great work
System RIG?
I'm guessing you are asking the specs of my computer? I7, NVIDIA 3080RTX, 16Gb RAM, SSD, fibre to the house.
So tired of glass cockpits
I don't mind them :)
Wait just a minute Mr. B....you did not check all the doors in preflight? what?...Really. And on top of that... you did not properly shut the airplane down on the previous flight.....This is not good my friend....people could die! Lights??? just leave them on all nite....A little less than 20 mins from preflight and move to centerline....In a ROTEX powered plane. I have seen Airbuses appear in the gateway..in less than two minutes...they are airborne...why??
Because they can. Tons of Sim pilots have thousands of real time hours in many types of planes....I think if they want to E-start the sim....then do it...go fly and have fun...If you want Professional start ups every damn flight..then go to a real company who can drill you silly...geeeeez. I myself really enjoy your abrivated flights...tthank you!!!
This is the difficult balancing act - right here :)
