This video features a complete and realistic startup procedure of the PMDG Boeing 777 for Microsoft Flight Simulator (MSFS). In it, we simulate a flight from Amsterdam to Los Angeles and we visit all the plane's systems as we explore the startup & CDU programming process!
If you want to use my cold & dark state, you can download it here. It includes a cold & dark startup state and a 'gate' startup state for a realistic turnaround state or how you would find the aircraft at the start of the day with electrical power established: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1gjHOiwFpHaZyuvWWGThg-4ytA7QB9fWq/view?usp=sharing

Although this video is based on real world procedures, things have (purposely) been left out here and there or might be different from procedures used in real life, due to, amongst other factors, simulator limitations, limitations of the PMDG 777 etc. The procedures shown in this video do not relate to my airline, the airline used in this video or any other airline. This is just a tutorial for flight simulation purposes, nothing more, nothing less! This video is here to get you going with the 777 in an as realistic manner as possible within the limits of the Microsoft Flight Simulator environment. Therefore, do not use this video for real world training or flying, always consult the manuals of your own operator if you happen to fly this plane in real life.
