Dreamliner Tutorials #1 : Startup and Systems Overview
This video shows you the basic start-up procedure, some EFB and CDU features, setting configurations and all the stuff you would do before a planned flight on the ground. It also shows you how to load up airport charts, how to enter data for VNAV and acts like an introduction to the whole upcoming tutorial series.
Dreamliner Tutorials #2 : Howto: Install Airport Charts and Diagrams
In this video, we show you how to get, convert and install Airport Diagrams and Charts into the EFB Database so you can load it up during runtime. In this example, I've installed a STAR and an IAP for Memphis (KMEM) and also it's airport diagram.
You can get more charts and diagrams from airnav [1] or opennav [2].
Dreamliner Tutorials #3 : Making the best of the Fly-by-wire
Here, we show you the various features of the fly-by-wire system on board the Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner. It's not exactly a 'howto', just a quick overview that compares joystick input with the aircraft's fly-by-wire output.
In this video, we show you how to use the Boeing 787-8's Vertical Navigation feature... We're also trying out a new intro (please don't laugh at redneck's intro :D) for it. Let use know if you like it...
Dreamliner Tutorials #5: Howto: Fly an Automated Hold
This video shows you how to set in your hold configuration, and fly an automated hold...
NOTE: I guess redneck forgot that the 787-8 had a VSD at 16:22
Dreamliner Tutorials #6: The Flight Management Computer
This video shows you how to use the CDU and EFB to plan a flight.
