As a new flight sim enthusiast, this is a great idea. And I already discovered Doofer911’s content and it’s great. 
 

Have any other YouTubers got content on proper use of autopilot, reading plates, ATC and ILS approach best practices, etc?

Thanks for the additional resources everyone!

Highly recommend anything from Rod Machado. I have met him in person during safety seminar . Very knowledgeable guy! Always at the edge of technology and science! And as everyone know very funny person who energizes serious business with laughs.

My second choice would be Martha and John King. Very nice knowledgeable  and humble folks. I enjoyed their seminar as well!

Thanks for the PIN! However, I am unable to edit the post now, lol. Would you or another mod be able to add the resources to the main post for ease of finding information?

Members have only a limited amount of time to edit their posts. Either I or another mod can copy/paste the new resources into the main post.

At some point in the near future, probably this thread will be archived in the new "Tips and Tricks" forum (which will be a read-only forum).

Ahhhh okay, didn't realise that. I assumed it was because it got PINed. Thanks again!

Here's the FAA publications page. Always a good source of aviation information.
