After many requests I have finally finished my ConcordeX Fuel Panel video.  I have done my best to get this procedurally correct following various documents and the ITVV Concorde video.  If you ever wanted to understand and work this panel properly yourself (no VFE) then this video will show you everything you need to know.

Good job, I cannot watch it right now (it's great weather, going to make some cross country irl), so I'll comment later today. :smile:

Here is the link to the corrected video: 

Watched the video, it's matching my procedures and procedures we have seen at ITVV video. Scenarios are very nice touch, and the only thing it could be added is other few schematics that explain positions of pumps and inlets, we can see in concorde manual.

Thanks. I tried to keep it to an hour and still went over. I think this gives people enough to get started and they can read the manual or prune forums etc. if further information is required.

I noted time codes for all chapters and significant moments of flight, so you can add it in description in order to provide quick navigation for someone who want to take a peek during the flight to recall procedure:

1:16:44 Credits & final comment

 

Thanks, I was too lazy to do that but I have added this list to the video comments.  No links yet but I might add that later.

Links are working just fine! :smile:

Fantastic, I did not know you could do it in that format, I was using a different way....great its working, thanks for the help.

Outstanding! Job Mark.     Very informative.  Helped me a on a few issues.

 

Thanks for taking the time to create this project. I have the Flight deck Prodcutions video...very well done.   Except they didn't go in depth in a tutorial like scenario.

 

 

I'm glad you mentioned CconcordePerformanceSystem (CPS)   what a great product to enhance the enjoyment of Concorde.   With Pierre's new computation in the program, it's a little more difficult to plan shorter type flights.

 

IE PHOG(Maui) to KLAX.    Thanks again for an outatanding presentation!

 

Best,

David

Thanks for the comments David.

 

Just a bit confused by your comment on the CPS.  Are you saying that it does not do a good job on short flights now?  I would like to know as I was thinking of doing one of the round the world multi leg flights which has a number of very short segments like Aukland to Sydney, etc.

I appreciate your time, and effort to make this video. I was one of the sequesters. I just saw the thread.. You will have feed back as soon as I watch it.

Many Thanks !!!!!

Hi Mark. Sorry, for the confusion.   With the refinements of CPS, it's a lot more difficult(ie realistic) to just load and go.

 

When I first setup my PHOG-KLAX flights..I like this one as it's fairly shaort and fun...or visa versa.   At anyrate, before with older versions, I could take my reqd. fuel load 100 pax and crew and baggage.

 

Now, due to WX conditions,short runways etc....I have had to reduce my pax count to around 75 to be legal for takeoff.   Planning is a lot more precise now.

 

have fun with CPS, it's a great tool.

 

Best,

David

Got it.  Agree, very useful tool.
