Title: ProPilot Flight | EDDC - EGLL | PMDG Boeing 737-800
Post by: EHM-1343 Jonathan on August 24, 2006, 10:35:28 pm

A few days ago, I completed a fantastic flight from EDDC - Dresded to EGLL - Heathrow on ProPilot.

For my flight I used the PMDG Boeing 737 with my customized panel layout and a handy printout of a 737NG checklist used in the realworld by the Ryanair 737-800 Pilots.

As for the route, it was fairly straight-forward, a westbound departure routing initally through Langen, over Dusseldorf, out over the Netherlands and straight into London via a Lambourne 3A arrival.

Here is the 737 with the pre-flight checklist complete, the doors are closed and the PAX are seated, let the fun begin.

Some of you guys may remember my image of another 737-800 flight, during which I made a very steep climbout. Today I didnt want to get an penalty for exceeding 4500fpm so i kept it nice and steady.

I decided to go for the minimalist look on my NG panel today, very nice imo ;)

Have a look at the route ahead, just overhead the RKN VOR and about to head out over the North Sea in a few mins.

A nice wing view as we descend over eastern London.

And a nice way to end, the sun shinning on Heathrow and about to disengage the A/P for a manual landing on 27R

After the flight, the outcome was a 0.00 score which I was rather pleased with to say the least.

Thanks for reading, and please post your comments!

Jim,

Not sure if it is Visual Flight London but it looks like it. I think it is a great peice of software although be warned, frame rates suffer!

Have a look at it here: http://www.visualflight.info

To me, it just looks like the normal default scenery, on maximum density...

IMHO those winglets are rather to big for the plane... looks like they top the upper fuselage...

Otherwise, awesome pics as usual ;)
