Microsoft Flight Simulator: Scheduled flight - Passenger aircraft Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 guide, tips
Last update: 29 December 2022
On this page of the guide to Microsoft Flight Simulator we show how to complete the scheduled route between airports by passenger plane. We suggest which systems of the machine to focus on and how to use the autopilot for this.
The above picture basically says it all. You're going to spend a lot more time admiring the landscapes, because the autopilot will do a great job.
Your main task will be to make sure that the autopilot leads the plane according to plan. You can see it on the ND navigation screen...
... on the MCDU computer screen in the F-PLN section...
... and a little less realistically on the map under the V key.
From time to time, you will be contacted by other ATC controllers, who will confirm the tracking of your flight and often report on other machines passing nearby.
So it's another kind of activity to turn off the AI control over the radio and respond to each message on your own. You can also consider using mods, for example, allowing you to take care of passengers on board. The list of the best mods can be found on the page titled: Best mods.
