Heavy Rain Landing Hong Kong - Boeing 747-400 Cockpit





Here is this weeks post of a B747 landing in heavy rain in new Hong Kong. Th pilot has the aircraft in the 3 ADC (Air Data Computer) mode to do an autopilot only landing before taking over at Minimums. What interests me is the transfer across from auto to manual and the fact that the farthest taxiway due to the rain. Practicing this approach in Aerowinx certainly adds to the 'transfer of training.'



This week i`ve been flying Sydney to Los Angeles situation & discovered that by pressing the H key as acknowledgement of Air Traffic Control instructions I have enjoyed the vectors & in-flight interactions.



What puzzles me is that previously I was pressing the PTT (Press To Talk) button on the Captains side near the window & didn`t get the same interactions.



Can anyone explain why? Also what were your 3 most 'real' ATC interactions while flying on Aerowinx? Let me know.



Have a great weekend from Oz.
