    My first solo was in 1992. Here's what my instructor told me and what I told my students:

     

    1. Your instructor has confidence in you, so should you.

    2. You are never alone. There's a whole world ready to help you on the other side of that radio.

    3. Even though there's noone sitting next to you, say things out loud and talk yourself through it. You'll notice if you miss something or if something doesn't sound right.

    4. Wear a cheap tie.

     

    Have a good flight!

    Wow! Many thanks to dean33 for the FS MaNIA plug! Truthfully, on the Denver to Eagle County (KEGE) flight videos I was still learning the PC-12 and the Reality XP Garmin GNS 530. I just uploaded two new videos of an IFR flight in the PC-12 from Eagle County to Aspen. I am getting slightly more proficient with the checklist and flows. Also learned a few tricks with the RXP 530 which is a major upgrade from the FSX version.

     

    Many thanks to Bert P for sharing his panel mods and expertise on the PC-12!

     

    Kindest Regard, Tim Garris, FS MaNiA

     

    Should've figured you'd be on AvSim, too. :)

    Well it went good, just completed the flight, just enough runway left to turn off :) What threw me for a loop is runway 19R is no longer runway 19R, its now 20R. I thought something was wrong in my AIRAC database, then I checked online and sure enough they changed it. Musta been that last earthquake we had :)

     

    Yeah, I posted about it here. Not going to touch it, though. Changing it is supposedly not trivial. :(

    Vector command: "XX123, fly heading 230"

     

    Dial the round knob until the display says 230 and be in heading select and check that your aircraft is listening to you. Or, just fly manually. Whatever you have to do to fly heading 230 ...

    Here's what I did, and I think it's the same as what you're doing:

    • Fly ILS 04 down to minimums.
    • Press TO/GA, clean the aircraft up and climb out.
    • After stable at 3000' enter the STAR starting from LOREL
    • Set 6000' on the MCP
    • Click Altitude Intervene

    Now it won't accept altitude intervene. 

     

    However, if I do NOT enter the star, it will accept the altitude intervene and climb to 6000 under VNAV PTH, same as in Antoni's video. He doesn't do what you do, though.

     

    Why this happens and if this is correct behavior, I do not know. I only know that it will not get out of VNAV ALT using altitude intervene after the STAR has been entered.
