The video is actually broken down into two separate videos – one concentrating on VFR flight planning and the other looking at IFR flight planning.

In the real world of aviation, flight plans allow VFR pilots to reach their destinations accurately and on time. They also allow air traffic control to vector pilots.

You will receive instructions on how to choose departure and destination airports, and starting points, and parking places, as well as how to make GPS direct routes. There are also lessons on VOR-to-VOR routes while accessing the information on runways, elevations, and frequencies.

There is information on how to use the simulator’s NavLog and maps, and how to save your flight plan with air traffic control (and how to save them for future flights).

The videos themselves have been masterfully put together and have been purposely designed in order to get the most information possible across to the audience. All aspects are explained clearly and concisely and feature animations featuring images from MSFS 2020.

The delivery is easy to follow, and the audio is crystal clear.

After soaking up the instructions on offer, being able to flight plan will add yet another sense of realism and authenticity to your overall home flight simulation experience.

Extra bonus features include a complete transcript of each video for easy reference, a regulation altitude chart, a keyboard shortcut list for MSFS 2020, and a V-speed card.

If you haven't figured out how to make flightplans in MSFS, then this is the video for you. The explanation is extremely clear and understandable. I knew how to make flightplans, but bought this to see if there was anything that I was missing. I picked up a few pointers.

My videos are carefully planned, researched, crafted, and scripted. Narrations are clearly read. Animations are precisely timed. The videos are independently reviewed for accuracy before release. YouTube is like anything else: You get what you pay for.

Nice refresher for "rusty/new pilot". Well presented and documented . Include a copy of blank flight plan document would be nice - save searching and printing from other sources. Thanks for the videos.
