Microsoft Flight Simulator: Passenger aircraft - Basics Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 guide, tips

Last update: 29 December 2022

The guide and the manual for Microsoft Flight Simulator in this section presents the rules of flying the most complex passenger aircraft. We explain how to use the autopilot of Airbus, Boeing and similar machines and how to comprehensively operate the MCDU on-board computer.

In the first part, in addition to a general overview of the differences between passenger transport and general aviation, we also explain how best to start an adventure with passenger aircraft in Microsoft Flight Simulator. In addition, you will find the explanation of the most useful terms and abbreviations used when flying aircraft on cruise routes.

The second part focuses on the flight plan. We show you how to quickly create a flight plan with an in-game tool and how you can do it in a more accurate, more realistic way using dedicated pages and the MCDU tool in the cockpit. The flight plan is a necessary element, allowing you to travel the entire, often multi-hour route with the help of automatic control systems.

In the next chapter we describe the distribution of instruments in the cockpit of a passenger plane, together with the keys to quickly navigate to the view of a particular panel. We describe the most important screens and the most frequently used switches.

We devoted a separate section to the Autopilot panel, which is the main instrument for controlling a passenger aircraft during flight - Microsoft Flight Simulator: Passenger aircraft - Basics - Passenger aircraft - Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 Guide
