SNEAK PEEK: 777 Training Preview #5 of 15
Can you imagine what would happen if you suddenly lost all airspeed indications on your flight deck? First, you’d have no idea the limits of the aircraft based on airspeed. Are you close to stall? Overspeed?

Imagine slamming forward the throttles, and climbing like a bat out of (you know where) to climb to your cruise altitude. All seems well. But then the cabin crew reports that the passengers are blocks of ice in the -60 degree air.
Ever since I can remember, I have known that I wanted to have a career in the aviation industry. I spent my early years in Houston, TX, where my Dad worked for NASA as an astronaut trainer. While I was out playing in the sandbox with my brother, I would hear the roar of a jet engine screaming by our house. I would stop what I was doing, spring up, and look upwards towards the sky to catch a glimpse of a T-38 astronaut trainer speeding by. I knew that I wanted to experience that “free” feeling of flight for the rest of my life.
Don’t think hydraulic knowledge is important? Think again. If your hydraulics go out, you’ll literally have no way of controlling the aircraft.
Have you ever seen a schematic so complex it made you want to cry? In this video preview, you’ll see just how detailed our explanations of complex schematics are.
We have a winner! Rai from Brazil is our winner. And we won pretty handily. His version of the 777 turned out to be quite a popular choice in our recent repaint contest.
In our training products, we don’t just go into the details of aircraft like the 777, but we also teach you basics. In this example, we show you how moisture is formed.
They’ve done it again! PMDG has built up an incredible amount of hype around their next aircraft. And who doesn’t love this aircraft? The 777 seems to be the darling of the Boeing fleet. As a result, this simulation is going to appeal to a very wide user base. If you’re already this far into reading, there’s no doubt that you too are interested in purchasing a copy of this globe-spanner.
Wow, we’ve been chugging away on some hard work! Sweat is rolling down our face, muscles are sore, all for our 777 GroundWork Training. No, we’re not bench-pressing a GE90, but we have been chipping away at a large and ambitious project to teach you all about the 777 Systems.
Over the past several weeks we’ve been releasing quite a few 737 FlightWork Flights. FlightWork is our way of training pilots to fly the aircraft by taking them on real routes, and showing them everything from startup, to shutdown.
