MSFS 2020 | TUTORIAL: Aerosoft CRJ 700 lesson with a real world pilot | Complete Lesson

Video Description

Learn along with me as I take a lesson in the Aerosoft CRJ 700 with Michael, a real world CRJ first officer and former flight instructor. He takes me through a full flight from Atlanta (KATL) to Washington Dulles (KIAD), from powering up the aircraft from cold and dark to shutting it down at the other end. If you'd like to follow along, the flight plan and other resources can be found below. There are also links to different chapters if you're looking for guidance on something specific. We go through every flow and checklist, just as they're run in the real world at Michael's US regional carrier. Along the way, we gain some fascinating insights into real world ops, key differences between the Aerosoft CRJ and the planes that Michael flies in real life, and we learn how to troubleshoot and deal with some of the plane's... idiosyncrasies! Michael has his own YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/user/AUpilot77 - do go and check it out! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE FLIGHT ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Atlanta Stand D32 To: Washington Dulles Stand Z6 Weather: Few Clouds Time: 12:30 local, 17:30 UTC Routing: KATL/26L JACCC2 KELLN DCT BYJAC Q60 JAXSN DCT DORRN CAVLR4 KIAD/01R PDF Flight Plan: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1FYsdrgpdcpcOnY1bCGM9pZmegDXE16po/view?usp=sharing KATL Charts: https://skyvector.com/airport/ATL/Hartsfield-Jackson-Atlanta-International-Airport KIAD Charts: https://skyvector.com/airport/IAD/Washington-Dulles-International-Airport ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CHAPTERS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PRE-DEPARTURE 00:00:00 - Introducing Michael 00:03:08 - Safety check flow 00:05:12 - Establishing electrical power 00:09:17 - Safety checklist 00:13:23 - Originating check flow 00:32:39 - Originating checklist 00:32:57 - FMS setup 00:47:53 - Performance data & trim setup 00:50:02 - PFD & FCU setup 00:52:28 - Before start checklist & pressurisation discussion 00:55:02 - Pre-departure flow 00:56:25 - Cleared to start checklist PUSHBACK, ENGINE START & TAXI OUT 00:57:04 - Pushback 00:58:22 - Engine start 01:02:00 - After start flow 01:03:50 - After start checklist 01:05:37 - Taxi checklist 01:06:13 - Taxi out TAKEOFF, CLIMB & CRUISE 01:08:25 - Before takeoff checklist 01:11:48 - Takeoff 01:15:30 - Climb checklist & climb 01:29:07 - Cruise at FL390 01:30:43 - Descent & cruise at FL370 DESCENT, APPROACH, LANDING, TAXI IN & SHUTDOWN 01:38:19 - Descent preparation & real aircraft differences 01:43:09 - Using the FIX page 01:46:21 - Descent 01:58:45 - Descent checklist 02:08:08 - Approach 02:12:00 - Before landing checklist 02:13:27 - Landing 02:14:32 - After landing checklist & taxi in 02:19:56 - Parking & shut down 02:22:24 - Shut down checklist ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WANT TO SUPPORT THE CHANNEL? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Join Club Filbert with a regular donation and access perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmiXdxpQlbpFLCA-Mb_diww/join Make a one-off donation: https://streamlabs.com/filbertflies Join my Discord: https://discord.gg/hNA9ANn ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LINKS TO ADD-ONS USED ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Aerosoft CRJ 700: https://www.aerosoft.com/en/microsoft-flight-simulator/msfs-aircraft/3303/aerosoft-aircraft-crj-550/700 Flightbeam Washington Dulles: https://shop.flightbeam.net/products/flightbeam-kiad-for-msfs ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SYSTEM SPECS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- i7 8700k processor 32GB RAM GeForce GTX 1080Ti LG UltraWide 25UM58 25-inch Monitor Thrustmaster T16000.M flight stick Thrustmaster TFRP T.
