Want to fly the like a professional? This small Guide acts as a manual and a checklist and will help you to manage all states of flight step by step This Guide is for beginners with the FSX Standard Jets.
The manual provides basic information and should give you a feeling for real life procedures. In the beginning, the Aircraft is supposed to be in a state that is called "Cold and Dark". This means, that the engines are switched off and there is no electrical power just as you would have it in reality. To get into such a state just start a flight in the fsx eg with the Cessna , switch everything off and save the flight as your "standard flight".
Now everytime you start a flight the aircraft will be in cold and dark. I just converted the pages into jpegs. Disclaimer: This is not an official document! Do not use for real flight!

The engines are running by default when you begin a flight. Idle thrust is adequate for taxiing under most conditions, but you'll need a slightly higher thrust setting to get the aircraft rolling.
Allow time for a response after each thrust change before changing the thrust setting again. In Flight Simulator, rudder pedals twist the joystick, use the rudder pedals, or press 0 [left] or ENTER [right] on the numeric keypad are used for directional control during taxiing. Avoid stopping the during turns, as excessive thrust is required to get moving again.
The following table lists recommended maneuvering speeds for various flap settings. The minimum flap-retraction altitude is feet, but 1, feet complies with most noise abatement procedures. When extending or retracting the flaps, use the next appropriate flap setting depending on whether you're slowing down or speeding up.
In adverse weather conditions, taxi with the wing flaps up and then set takeoff flaps during your Before Takeoff checklist procedure. Likewise, retract the flaps as soon as practicable upon landing. Flaps are generally not used on the — for the purpose of increasing the descent rate during the descent or approach phases of flight.
All of the following occurs quite rapidly. Read through the procedure several times before attempting it in the plane so you know what to expect.
Run through the Before Takeoff checklist and set flaps to 5 press F7 , or click the flap lever on the panel. With the aircraft aligned with the runway centerline, advance the throttles press F3 , or drag the throttle levers to approximately 60 percent N1. This allows the engines to spool up to a point where uniform acceleration to takeoff thrust will occur on both engines. The exact amount of initial setting is not as important as setting symmetrical thrust. As the engines stabilize this occurs quickly , advance the thrust levers to takeoff thrust—less than or equal to percent N1.
Final takeoff thrust should be set by the time the aircraft reaches 60 KIAS. Directional control is maintained by use of the rudder pedals twist the joystick, use the rudder pedals, or press 0 [left] or ENTER [right] on the numeric keypad. Below about 80 KIAS, the momentum developed by the moving aircraft is not sufficient to cause difficulty in stopping the aircraft on the runway. V1, approximately KIAS, is decision speed.
Above this speed, it may not be possible to stop the aircraft on the runway in case of a rejected takeoff RTO. At Vr, approximately KIAS, smoothly pull the stick or yoke back to raise the nose to 8 degrees above the horizon.
Hold this pitch attitude and be careful not to over-rotate doing so before liftoff could cause a tail strike. This is the minimum safe flying speed if an engine fails. Hold this speed until you get a positive rate of climb. As soon as the aircraft is showing a positive rate of climb on liftoff both vertical speed and altitude are increasing , retract the landing gear press G , or drag the landing gear lever.
At 1, ft m , reduce flaps from 5 to 1 press F6 , or drag the flaps lever. Lower the pitch slightly and accelerate to KIAS, at which point you can go to flaps up press F6 again. As you retract the flaps, set climb power of approximately 90 percent N1 press F2 , use the throttle control on your joystick, or drag the thrust levers.
Maintain 6 or 7 degrees nose-up pitch attitude to climb at kts until reaching 10, feet 3, meters , and then maintain KIAS to your cruising altitude. Cruise altitude is normally determined by winds, weather, and other factors. You might want to use these factors in your flight planning if you have created weather systems along your route. Optimum altitude is the altitude that gives the best fuel economy for a given configuration and gross weight.
A complete discussion about choosing altitudes is beyond the scope of this section. When climbing or descending, take 10 percent of your rate of climb or descent and use that number as your target for the transition. For example, if you're climbing at fpm, start the transition feet below the target altitude.
You'll find it's much easier to operate the Boeing — in climb, cruise, and descent if you use the autopilot. The autopilot can hold the altitude, speed, heading, or navaid course you specify. For more information on using the autopilot, see Using an Autopilot. Normal cruise speed is Mach 0.
You can set. The changeover from indicated airspeed to Mach number typically occurs as you climb to altitudes of 20, to 30, feet 6, to 9, meters. Remember that your true airspeed is actually much higher in the thin, cold air. You'll have to experiment with power settings to find the setting that maintains the cruise speed you want at the altitude you choose.
A good descent profile includes knowing where to start down from cruise altitude and planning ahead for the approach. Normal descent is done with idle thrust and clean configuration no speed brakes. A good rule for determining when to start your descent is the 3-to-1 rule three miles distance per thousand feet in altitude. Take your altitude in feet, drop the last three zeros, and multiply by 3.
For example, to descend from a cruise altitude of 35, feet 10, meters to sea level: 35, minus the last three zeros is This means you should begin your descent nautical miles from your destination, maintaining a speed of KIAS about 45 percent N1 and a descent rate of 1, to 2, feet per minute, with thrust set at idle. Add two extra miles for every 10 knots of tailwind. To descend, disengage the autopilot if you turned it on during cruise, or set the airspeed or vertical speed into the autopilot and let it do the flying for you.
Reduce power to idle, and lower the nose slightly. The — is sensitive to pitch, so ease the nose down just a degree or two. Remember not to exceed the regulation speed limit of KIAS below 10, feet 3, meters. Continue this profile down to the beginning of the approach phase of flight.
