X-Plane 11 - FMC + Autopilot

In this X-Plane 11 tutorial, I will expand upon the previous Flight Management Computer video and show you how to fly the flight plan from Ottawa to Montreal using the FMC and Autopilot. We will use the default Boeing 737, and I will provide some links to other modified versions of this aircraft.

Note: A Boeing plane will automatically start the descend if a lower MCP altitude has been set and you pass the T/D (green donut on navdisplay). An Airbus on the other hand will not do that and require you to push the altitude selector to get into managed descend mode, otherwise it will fly right past the T/D.

The XP11 default FMS falls into the latter category. It doesn't do anything unless you tell it to. That means, approaching the T/D, dial in a lower MCP altitude, and when you are about to pass the T/D, press the ALT HOLD button to come out of altitude hold into managed descend.
