Lewis,

Great suggestions, but the main thing for me is finding place that are manned with ATC, or else its just another offline video if that makes sense.

If anyone wants to come forward to is a VATSIM ATC controller for those regions that would be great B)

I love the Duxford shows though :)

And Im thinking of taking the B377 on VATSIM and doing some airliner flights around Europe :)

Another video,

This time running over some Checklists produced by the FS Flight Lessons channel, produced by Eric Lund.
And dabbling with the Autopilot system.
Also, a short stroll around the skies at Bristol with VATSIM ATC.

Great videos! I have to say a big thank you to Mantock for inspiring me to go and explore Vatsim with this aircraft. The first flight I flew online was a real baptism of fire, but I'm really getting the bug now. It adds another dimension to an already awesome aircraft.

Perhaps you could talk about the ins and outs of vatsim flying in a future video? Such as what to do when certain controllers aren't available etc. It's something I'm trying to get my head around now.

A new video in the series, lacking in professionalism, but full of mistakes that you can learn from and NOT DO in your own flying of this lovely aircraft!!

My first video of full IFR mode in the C172

Got a new video just come out, Myself using the A2A C172 for some basic navigation experiments.
A slightly different angle on this one, this part 1 of 2 video deals with the basics of Radio navigation, using NDB, DME, and VOR navigation.
I hope this helps beginners understand the (potentially) complex and confusing VOR radial tracking.

And part two, but it does not involve the C172.
