PMDG 747-400 V3 Go Around Tutorial?

Featured Replies

Is there anyone who would be willing to do a tutorial video on a Go Around in this beautiful piece of work by PMDG?

I'm curious to see, because I do not feel I am following standard procedures for this. And, I'd prefer visual representation with explanations as to what is going on.

Thank you!

It's quite simple really.

- TOGA
- Flaps 20
- GA Attitude
- Positive rate, Gear UP
- LNAV or HDG (roll mode)
- VNAV (pitch mode)
- Retract flaps on schedule
- After Takeoff Checklist

That's it!

Surely you can do this all with your own hands, no kidding.😄

For old timers it's something like this:

- GA thrust (manually)
- Flaps 20
- GA attitude
- Positive rate, Gear UP
- Clean up on speed schedule (manually)
- After TO Checklist

Every six months in the sim during recurrent with an engine failure/fire and circle to land at night and wx at minimums.  And did I mention I do all this without the A/P. In situations like this I am much more comfortable flying it manually than with the A/P. 🙂

Also FCOM page 147 describes the steps each crew member does.

You can try also pushing the TOGA switch a second time if you need a more "aggressive" TOGA

If you have FS2Crew you can perform the go around procedure very well...

Be sure to set the missed approach altitude on the MCP once you've coupled up on the glideslope.
