Can a Real 737 Captain fly a Tupolev Tu-154 in X-Plane 11 on VATSIM? | Riga - Manchester

Join me in the flight deck LIVE as we take the Felis TU-154 out for a spin.

This is a study level simulation and detailed representation of its real-world counterpart, we’ll be (attempting) to fly on VATSIM from Riga (EVRA) in Latvia to Manchester (EGCC) in the UK.

Flying this aircraft is extremely challenging and although the principles are the same it’s very different to what I’m used to so please bear with me as I try my upmost to move this old chunk of metal across the length of Europe!

The primary purpose of this stream is to give you the opportunity to see how I operate the aircraft in real time using real world operating procedures.

Time permitting, I will try and answer some questions you might have about commercial aviation and operating the 737-800 in general.

Whilst every effort is made to accurately replicate the way the aircraft is flown based on my experience as an Airline Captain and Type Rating Instructor, this is purely for entertainment only.

If you happen to be a line pilot or training pilot you must not follow the guidance in this livestream, it is purely for non-professional computer simulated flight. Only consult your approved material from your respective operator.

Personal questions and queries regarding my employment status will not be answered.
