There is one very, very minor error, the VSI dial is referred to as the altimeter, but we did not think it important enough to ask Miguez to recreate the whole training video again! As it is, I found the video extremely useful as I now understand why I was going through the checklist and not just slavishly pushing buttons etc.

Well done miguez. Thanks for the efforts and I am looking forward to seeing a release of this continued tutorial.

I notice at the bottom of the added chart that there are several modules to be completed. Do you have an estimated release date of this project or is much more work needed to be done before release is scheduled?


Worth the 1.5 hours to 'dl' it, and the 1 hour 4 minutes to watch.

Miguez,

Just finished watching the video. One word:

OUTSTANDING!

From a guy that's been in aviation for the last 35 years, done the instructing gig (to include being an instructor for NWA on the Boeing 727), I'd wager that this is as good as ANY flight sim instructional video out there. Very well done, good explanations (not too technical...just perfect), good flow, and it should serve to clear up LOTS of questions about the Ka-50.

Again, congratulations on a great video!

BBall

A good video, but I don't understand why everybody's so excited about it. You can learn the same things by watching the producer's notes and reading the manual, except some minor details like the fact that the APU in Ka-50 does not provide electrical power.

But it's far easier to just watch such a well made training video.
