How Do You Land A 747 In Flight Simulator X?
• Get clearance to land and have the runway in sightand alignment. • Prepare the aircraft. At this point you can see the runway, so now we need to prepare the aircraft for landing. • Usually the auto-throttle is on and the speed hold button is glowing, if not turn it on. • Now set the auto-speed to 165 knots. • Set flaps to 20 and lower gear. • Start descent towards the runway at a steady pace, if your plane is not yet at 165 knots, set flaps full, your auto throttle will take care of the rest but you need to be at 165 for the next step to work. • Turn all auto pilots off at this point, EXCEPT FOR THE SPEED HOLD BUTTON AND AUTO-THROTTLE SWITCH. • Now level your plane so you have 0 degrees of pitch. • At the speed you’re going, this pitch should make you decent efficient. • Now, at 900 feet, pitch to about 3-5 degrees upwards to slow your descent. • Now it’s up to you, depending on how far away from the runway you are by this time, you can either continue descent slowly or you can pitch
