If you haven’t already done so, I strongly recommend getting a clear sheet of plastic/laminate and drawing a line down the middle lengthwise and down the middle widthwise. It makes working with the Beechcraft performance charts a lot easier.

I was always intrigued by the blue lever. So if I pull back on it on take off, will the higher pitch of the blade also increase the speed of the aircraft with the same amount of throttle?

If you do that on takeoff you would lose thrust. It needs to be forward for takeoff and landing approach. On cruise you typically dial in around 2400-2500 RPM.

Thanks for continuing this series. I’m mostly through the 152 lessons, can’t wait to catch up with live lessons.

Hello, i’m a fellow student following these lessons, and first of all i want to thank you again for this iniziative. Forder is an excellent teacher and allows me to have fun while learning many interesting things!
But i have a question regarding the leaning procedure and the G1000 (i play MSFS on xbox series x):
when i check the MFD on my Bonanza i don’t seem to have the “engine” softkey and therefore i can’t access the “stack of pancakes” to be used for leaning… Is this happening to anyone else or is it only me? can you please help me understand why? screenshot attached

Are you using the NXi G1000?
No i’m not, it’s just the standard…
Yer that’s only in the NXi G1000. Or the default unit once SU10 drops
This is great. ForderLearntofly is currently flying through the FS ACADEMY range, which you can see very soon

Hi there,
Last out was NAVIGATOR, which can be found here, released in April: www.fsacademy.co.uk/navigator
For future packs, concepts are being gathered for whats next. Development has slowed as my IRL A320 flying has ramped up for summer, but there is always FS ACADEMY work going on in the background.
