Thanks for joining us today Tom and Mark. Tom flew our Boeing 737800 departing from Schiphol runway 18 heading over to Amsterdam returning on a ILS approach into Schiphol . Mark drove LMP1 on Silverstone International track . #simulator #lmp1 #sim2docar #sim2doboeing #pilot #pilotinstructor #schipolairport

Sim2do ILS APPROACH PROCEDURE
Check weather, select desired approach, brief transition and approach, especially stepdowns. Complete IN RANGE CHECK.
Downwind:... PF: FLAPS 1, SPEED 210 APPROACH CHECK LIST .
Turning base: PF: FLAPS 5 SPEED 190-180 On base leg: PF: FLAPS 10 SPEED 180-170 • Cleared for approach: Arm LOC or APP • Observe VOR/LOC and/or GS ARM annunciation on FMA. • Engage second A/P. • Transition to the ADI.
On course is within 1 round dot either side. • LOC: 1 dot = 1° • Localizer scale expands at 5/8 dot. • LOC EXP: 1 square = 1/2° • LOC Capture, set rwy hdg.
1 1/2 dots below GS, PF: GEAR DOWN FLAPS 15, SPEED 160-150 LANDING CHECK LIST GS capture, PF: FLAPS 30 or 40 SPEED 150-130
Set M/A altitude. FMA annunciation G/S ENGAGED and GA
Landing Target Speed w/o autoland is VREF + half the steady and all the gust, not to exceed 20. Min target is VREF + 5 (use at flare) Max is VREF + 20 (800-900 + 15) When A/T is disconnected the target speed must reflect full wind correction. Landing Target Speed with autoland is VREF + 5 regardless of wind speed.

Pilot assessment weekly. last week take off and handling
Approach speeds
... Following aircraft handling phase of the assessor will instruct you to set approach/landing speeds. Landing Flap is Flaps 30. The Vref (reference) and Vfly speeds are 142/147 knots respectively. You will be advised which approach to fly and allowed to brief and set up the navigations aids.
Prior to landing you will be required to intercept a radial to/from a beacon, a hold entry flying the arrival routing (STAR).
Approach – Manual flight
Non Precision Approach No Autopilot,Flight Director or auto throttle. Insure you commence briefing the approach, setting the navigation aids and course selections on the HSI and the selections on the RMI.
The Flap & Landing Gear schedule Minimum clean speed is 210 knots. The thrust setting level flight 55% N1.
@210 knots call for ‘Flaps one’ . Fly 190 knots minimum. @190 knots call for ‘Flaps five’. Fly 170 knots minimum. @ At 2 nm to DME call for ‘Landing Gear Down, Flaps Fifteen. Fly 150 knots minimum. @ ½ nm to final descent call for ‘Flaps Thirty’ . Fly 147 knots minimum final approach is roughly 58% N1.
The aircraft will issue aural calls at 50, 40, 30, 20 and 10 feet above the runway. @ ‘twenty’ call gently pitch up a couple of degrees and close the Thrust Levers.

Thank you for your feedback

Pilot assessment weekly. last week Pre Flight and takeoff profile.
Now take off
... • Look out the window and steer the aircraft down the runway with the rudder pedals. • The rudder is only used on the ground for take-off and landing. It is not used in the air, except in an engine failure situation. Avoid the temptation to use rudder like on a small aircraft. You will ‘dutch roll’.
The sequence of events and calls on take-off will be
1 PM will call the speeds V One’ and ‘Rotate.
2 At the call ‘Rotate’, rotate the aircraft gently to an initial attitude of 15 degrees up, and then follow the Flight Director (F/D) . Set to runway heading and the correct climb-out speed.
3 Next call for ‘Gear Up’. The PM will select Gear to up.
4 At 1500 feet agl. call for ‘Climb Thrust/Power’. The PM will disengage the auto throttle and manually set climb thrust of 90%N1 for you.
5 keep both hands on the control column until the Flaps are up (F0) At 170 knots call for ‘Flaps one’ (F1o) • At 190 knots call for ‘Flaps up’ (F0o). • Once you call for ‘Flaps up’
5 At 3000 feet agl call ‘Bug Up’. The PM will set the speed cursor to the 220 knots. The F/D will command an acceleration.
Pitch & Power’. when thrust is increased the aircraft will pitch up noticeably and vice versa. ‘Pitch & Speed’. as the aircraft accelerates it pitches up. When you slow up the aircraft it will pitch down.
Every time you change airspeed re-trim the aircraft.
The assessor will put you through some ‘upper air exercises’ which are intended to assess instrument scan,aircraft handling, spatial orientation general flight deck management.
Next week Approach speeds and manual approach flight

Thanks for the great feedback

What a wonderful time my wife and I had, I received my flight as a 60th birthday present from my children they know I love flying but have never been inside the cockpit of an aircraft. The moment we arrived Kenneth our instructor was welcoming asked a few basic questions and introduced us to Teddy his dog a great little dog so friendly, we did the preflight briefing then into the simulator where we were given the choice as to fly from England to anywhere or take off and landings, we chose take off and landings it was fantastic I can't believe how real it was would recommend it to anyone, and finally I would just like to say a big thank you to Kenneth for making my experience wonderful.

Over the next few weeks we will be posing information on a simulator assessment. It is the Sim2do version of the pilot assessment process.
We will cover 5 topics
... 1. Overview of the assessment 2. Required documentation for interview 3. Simulator Flight Instruments 4. Simulator Assessment Exercises 5. Your responsibilities in relation to checklists, Pilot Flying and Pilot Monitoring duties
Overview of the assessment
The Simulator You will be advised on the day by the assessor what airfield you will be using, and will be given the appropriate Jeppessen Charts .
The simulator is a Boeing 737-800 with ‘EFIS MAP’ instrument display as found on the Boeing 737-300/400/500
The aircraft will be positioned on the runway threshold with the engines running,flaps 5 selected and all pre-flight checks completed .
You are the Pilot Flying (PF) prior to take off, the PF will need to brief the Pilot Monitoring (PM). You should include • Specific departure clearance received • All navigation aid selections including the indicator selection on the RMI (VOR or ADF needles selected) and the cleared altitude. The Throttles handling procedure on take-off The Vertical profile and speeds to be flown .
Once in the simulator, the assessor will ‘act’ as an ‘Air Traffic Controller’ They will issue you with all ATC instructions. Treat the ATC instructions as you would a real flight/aircraft.
Take Off Profile
Take-off and initial climb to Flaps up (F0) – Pilot Flying The take off and initial climb will be flown manually with flight directors ON and auto pilot throttle engaged.
To commence Takeoff
1 advance thrust to the 12 o’clock position hold 3 seconds. 2 allow the engines stabilize at this thrust setting. 3 select TOGA.
Look out for next weeks post
