Join Airtours on a flight from Manchester International Airport to Sanford, Orlando, USA and learn from the experienced aircrew just what it is like to fly this modern airliner. This Platinum Collection title has been shot using 7 cameras with crystal clear digital stereo audio.
Join the flight crew in the high-tech cockpit of an Airtours Airbus A330-200 and see just what it is like to "fly by wire" one of the world's most advanced passenger aircraft. Your exclusive behind-the-scenes journey starts as the aircraft awaits departure from the stand at Manchester.
Taking off from runway 24R, you'll climb outbound for the Atlantic seeing and hearing everything that happens from check-lists, crew briefings and communication with Air Traffic Control until your arrival and shut-down.
The experienced aircrew will give you a guided tour of the Airbus' flight deck as you establish in the cruise at 35,000 feet. Amongst the many systems explained are the electronic management and glass cockpit systems such as EFIS, FMGS, MCDU and the overhead panel. The Captain will also explain some of the differences between the A330-200 and the Airbus A320.
Naturally there's more than the 'office' to look at and you'll see views of departure, in flight, approach and landing with multiple camera angles both from the cockpit and outside.
