July 19, 201510 yr Need a MCP & FMC good teaching tool I cannot seem to understand how they both work together, I am doing something or most likely allot of things wrong! Is there a teaching video or website that can help me? thanks Nick Sciortino
July 20, 201510 yr Hi Nick, I think that's not a topic to cover in a 2min video, so I hope you don't expect that :wink: The FMC is a very complex thing and is not only working together with the MCP. If you would like to learn about the systems of a 737 (in that case the PMDG), but that's adaptable in most cases, you may have a look at the training-videos from "Angle of Attack" (flyaoamedia.com) - it's not free, but you can have a free trial for 1 week and see if this is the right thing for you. They have videos in the Groundwork-section covering the systems of the 737 (of course the FMC too). In the Flightwork-section you can learn how that all works together in flight. They sometimes have some offers on their training packages, so maybe you should register for their newsletter. Marc Marc Weber

Marc Marc, much appreciated, I really didn't think a short video would be promising but this is something I need to learn as I am tired of flying the way I have been for all these years, (Not knowing where I am going, and Not knowing how to get there)! Nick and yes this was in reference of NGX 737, 777, CS777 and Airbus Nick Sciortino
July 21, 201510 yr What really helped me at the beginning was Capt Mike Rays books. His 737NG training syllabus takes you through every stage of a flight from scratch, and is very readable and extremely well illustrated. The download PDF version is on offer for $25 here: http://www.utem.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=124 He even has a Dollar download section, if you'd like to try a taster. Eugene
July 21, 201510 yr I found Capt. Mike's book invaluable when figuring out how to fly the PMDG 737. Highly recommended. Cheers, Mark
July 21, 201510 yr You might also want to youtube search for Frooglesim. Froogle does a great job of explaining the PMDG 737 and 777 on various flights. I've learned quite a few tips and tricks from watching his videos.
July 25, 201510 yr At the PMDG site you can dl flight tutorials which cover every switch and button from startup to shutdown... And at YouTube there are also multiple vids . 5950x3d 5.4-5.7 GHz - Asus ROG 870 Crosshair Apex - GSkill Neo 2x 24 Gb 6000 mhz / cas 26 - MSI RTX 5090 Gaming Trio OC - 1x SSD M2 6000 2TB - 1x SSD M2 2800/1800 1Tb - Corsair 5400 case - Corsair 360 liquid cooling set - 3x 75’ TCL tv. 13600 6 cores @ 5.1 GHz / 8 cores @ 4.0 GHz (hypterthreading on) - Asus ROG Strix Gaming D - GSkill Trident 4x Gb 3200 MHz cas 15 - Asus TUF RTX 4080 16 Gb - 1x SSD M2 2800/1800 2TB - 2x Sata 600 SSD 500 Mb - Corsair D4000 Airflow case - NXT Krajen Z63 AIO liquide cooling - FOV : 200 degrees My flightsim vids : https://www.youtube.com/user/fswidesim/videos?shelf_id=0&sort=dd&view=0
