Finally: The PERFECT PC-12 NGX Landing! (Flight Ops II)

Finally: master the Pilatus PC-12 NGX descent, landing, and turbine shutdown procedures in MSFS 2024. In this Flight Ops II series finale, we transition from high-altitude cruise efficiency to a precision landing in Perpignan (LFMP), breaking down energy management, Beta-range ground handling, and the critical PT6 cooling flow so you can finish every flight with total confidence.

In this third and final installment of our PC-12 NGX masterclass, we move from the service ceiling at Flight Level 300 to the runway. We tackle the complexities of the Honeywell Apex system, including how to engage "Low Prop Speed" mode for passenger comfort and how to troubleshoot the common FMS "Discontinuity" error that often breaks autopilot navigation. If you want to stop guessing your descent rates and start nailing every touchdown like a professional turboprop pilot, this is the episode for you.

We take a deep dive into the Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) required for a safe arrival. You’ll learn how to interpret EFB/MFD charts for the ILS Runway 33 approach, why switching between FLC and Vertical Speed mode is essential for energy management, and how to use the Beta range effectively during the rollout. We also address the persistent "Compare Fuel Quantity" warning and walk through the exact sequence to safely shut down the PT6 engine, ensuring all temperatures are stabilized before the master switch goes off.
