Hi all! In the meantime we wait for the release, we should be reading and studying FCOM's, QRH's, Aircraft Manuals and all the stuff we can get, if we want to simulate the operation of this plane following the real procedures.

 

A very good reference are the videos from Baltic Aviation Academy, in particular, all about their B737-300 simulator.

 

I have made a wide selection of them (in brackets the video duration), some videos are inserted automatically, but others don't (I don't know why)

 

Enjoy!!!

 

My best from Spain!

Paco

I love you all guys. Firstly, the IXEG team for making this extraordinary simulation of the 737 in the X-plane and secondly, you guys for finding the manuals so we will be able to understand and fly this aircraft as close as possible to the way the real crews do. It's like a giant puzzle coming together.

I found another LONG video 1:48 hours, but in this case it's a 737-500, but for 'training purpouses' it works for us...

 

 

One thing I noticed, why are both System A ENG & ELEC HYD Pumps OFF and System B ENG & ELEC HYD Pumps ON?

and reading the FCOM it is supposed to be as:

 

System A & B ENG HYD pumps must be ON and A & B ELEC HYD pumps OFF, like this picture taken from IEXG video:

Maybe it has a different hydraulic system. As i can remember, the FlyJSim 737 has Hydraulic System A driven by Engine 1 and 2. And Hydraulic System B driven by Elec 1 and 2.

Last time i thought that my be an error in their Simulation of the system. But watching the video makes me wondering if the hydraulic system was changed over the time.

I don´t know, but we used to have the A hydraulic unpressurized for pushback a few years ago. The reason was that there were no adequate steering-bypass-pins available at all destinations, so for commonality reasons the pushback was done with all A pumps off. That way the nosewheel steering won´t try to snap the towbar...

Interesting. I don´t know much about the 737-200, I never flew it. But it might be possible, in that configuration you would not need a gear-transfer-valve as there would always be one engine-driven-pump to raise the gear, even after an engine failure. But with a total loss of electric, you would also loose system B (and the stby system), so you´d have to land without flaps...

Thanks Jan! it makes sense, because at min 06:00 the FO initiates the before start checklist and when he says Hydraulics, the answer of the Captain is 'pushback'

All 737 Originals had system A driven by the engines and system B driven by electric pumps. This was changed in the Classics onward so that loss of engines or electrics would not result in the complete loss of a system.

Both FlyJSim and IXEG's simulations are correct of their respective aircraft.
