As a newcomer to FS with an interest in taking this up as a hobby, this is essential viewing and we are extremely grateful for the time and effort put into this professional presentation.

V1 thank you for this series. Being an old ramp rat in Atlanta and being a Boeing /Douglas/Lockheed guy I need to know the Bus. Lord knows we have a ton of them roaming around Atlanta

I'm a lot more excited about this than should be physically possible.

Glad to hear it! Good part is I am currently 3 episodes ahead from releasing and editing so that should mean we can get all the episodes out on time, in a timely manner. Enjoy!

Thanks V1, this is what i'm waiting for !

One of the best tutorials to date! Thanks, bro!

Thanks for this vid, V1. Really like the way you did this, and it's great seeing how to use the simbrief integration.

Thanks for the video! Keep it up! Love the channel brother!!!!

Man this is amazing 🤩 can’t wait to watch it!

Clear and precise. Absolutely great. This should be a mandatory viewing for everybody flying the FS2020 Airbus! Thank you.

You're simply the best sim youtuber out there. PERIOD. Thanks you for all your tutorials !

great first video. thanks for taking the time to explain everything. looking forward to following along and learning to fly this beast!

Great Video! It would be nice if you did a video on how to "turn around" an A320. I mean, from the point when the plane arrives to the gate from another flight to the pint where it can depart again with another flightplan.

I don't think it's that different? Just the APU or GPU is already running, and you just load in the new flight plan

Awesome Awesome......GREAT pilot and instructor

Been playing with the A320NX for a while now and you show there's always more to learn! Especially flows and the logic behind certain things, love it V1!

Hi V1, after nearly 11 years using FS9 and FSX last month I moved to FSX to MSFS 2020, also added the Flyby wire A32NX. Since watching your Airbus stream I have always wanted to get to grips with the airbus concept and thanks to your brilliant tutorials I am now up and running and slowly improving all aspects of my flying based on your tutorials. Thank you so much for taking so much of your time to share your absolutely fantastic content. Hopefully in the new year I can catch live more of your streams. Happy Christmas, stay safe and happy flying. All the best David

Thanks so much for all the videos and love these instructional ones - from a real A320 pilot - they are super interesting! Thanks!

Totally awesome walk through! Very informative but most important easy to follow along.

I'm a new streamer on youtube and I fly the A320neo mod (flybywire) almost exclusively. With you being a real A320 pilot, thank you for this. It sheds a lot of light. I told my friend that running the APU while connected to ground was a hazard. He doesn't believe me tho lol. Maybe if his flight ended abruptly, he would hahahahaha.

Excellent tutorial

Fantastic High quality stuff here. I am studying A320 and this has helped me a lot. Would appreciate if you could cover all the flows also of each fight phases.

Starting off the year strong :D

Trying! ;)

Pulling the GPU from the ac with is still providing power to the ac will not cause a spark. If you look in the external power socket you should see 4 long fat pins, 3 phase and neutral and 2 shorter pins. Those shorter pins are an interlock which will break the circuit before the 3 phase pins do and that will trip the supply at the GPU before those pins break contact. Unless someone has messed about with the interlock settings on the GPU which can be done on some!

I absolutely love this series! Makes my flight sim experience so much better! Thank you for taking the time and sharing your knowledge! Truly appreciate it! When do I ask ATC for IFR clearance? I did everything as followed in this video. I used SimBrief. When I went to ATC for clearance, it wouldn’t let me. Obviously I’m doing something wrong.

Great explanatory video but I would prefer if you zoom in MCDU or any panels in the future

Imagine if the Toliss A319/321/321NEO Had the ATSU feature and SimBrief incorperation. That would be realism at its finest. Great video V1!

@V1Sim

Thank you! I agree. I think Toliss can accept sinbrief flight plans if you download the file and put it somewhere in the Toliss folder. But you are right, even a lightly simulated ATSU/Acars would put it on the next level!

You can now import the flybywire 320N to Simbrief. So you have the correct data like weights etc.. You just need to go to their github site and scroll down a bit. There is a link for Simbrief.

Gave me a good scare when he turned on the External Power ahahaha.. that was REALLY loud!! xD but cool nonetheless, I laughed at myself at the same time.

Hey V1, excellent video as usual. Question about flex temp since you didnt really go into it. Whats the best way to calculate this? like in Toliss it does it for you but can we calculate manually ?

HI capt. when will be the next episode ??? , it was good explanation

Love this, thank you so much!

Should apply the safety flow before applying power, radar off, engines shut down, gear lever down, wipers off

Great tutorial Which flightsim do you prefer X plane 12 or MSFS and which sim is better for Airbus?

Strobe should be placed in Auto, this way, ground personnel and walk around pilot will find out if there is something wrong with the air ground logic.

Obviously I mostly fly the XPlane airbuses but I decided to watch cause I knew I'd learn something about the airbus in this video. Didn't know the trick about the landing gear lights coming on with the battery, pretty cool! Also about the pack flow, are you allowed to takeoff with the pack flow on high?

Awesome. Currently editing and explaining the hydraulics on a future episode which I may end up "clipping" and using as a standalone episode too lol So even tho this series is a little bit more "light" on features there will still be information passed on in complexity for the advanced guys such as yourself!

Do you know when the streams will be back at 1080p60? I just miss them, but they’re still amazing

Fair point. I usually set it to around 65 and leave it at that. I was of the opinion that it had an effect on V speeds.

Hi V1 Simulations. Thanks for your awesome tutorial. I succeeded to program the MCDU and start the A320 the first time from A to Z. I've done exactly like you did. But I have a problem. After I prepared the aircraft for take off, I looked again in the MCDU and clicked F-Plan to see the flight plan and it wasn't there, it was gone! What happened!? I also would like to know how to save it in the MCDU for future use. Thanks in advance. Ray

Hi v1 simulations, thanks for the excellent tutorial. Just to let you know because you made this tutorial video for fs2020, we wouldn't be able to program the MCDU because the MCDU MENU button is not in operational!! Can we go around that? Thanks

@V1Sim

3 жыл бұрын

Not sure I understand, the MCDU is programmable if you have the latest FBW mod. Some is not functional but a lot is.

Re-watching these videos as a self "recurrent training" exercise. I didn't see where you would have entered the current QNH and outside temp for DFW in the box. Did I miss something?

Awesome thanks for this. One thing that confuses me is arrival runway selection. Example: If you create an ILS flight plan in the world map of msfs2020 sometimes the approach is weird when you zoom in: hard jagged turns that seem like they can’t possibly be correct. If we are using simbrief to create the FP do we need to worry about this?

@V1Sim

3 жыл бұрын

the default planning tool does this, the aircraft will not, or at least it shouldn't. Just remember if you are going to use simbrief do not select an arrival airport in the default fs2020 menu, then when you load your simbrief flight plan all you need to do is select the arrival manually and it should be good to go.

Question: why is the No Smoking switch even a thing anymore? I'd have those signs lit any time the plane has (non emergency) power.

@V1Sim

3 жыл бұрын

A lot of the light configurations can actually be customized from Airbus when an airline orders a new aircraft. In some new aircraft this switch is actually replaced by a "NO PED" or Personal Electronics Device switch. I think over time No Smoking will be phased out

At the time of this video the FBW 320 was not as advanced as it is now, but yes that is essentially what i was doing. Now however its even easier, load the simbrief flight plan from the MCDU > ATSU > AOC > INIT then go back to the main INIT page in the MCDU where you typically load flight number etc and press the button on the right that says "INIT REQUEST" or something. It will pull and load the entire simbrief flightplan in to the box *minus the sid and star* which will have to be loaded in manually. If you watch any of my most recent streams you will see this process, its much easier and can have the entire box loaded in less than a minute. Good luck!

where can you find cost index?

Luke, I don't know if you still need an answer for this. Look for the letters CI on the SimBrief flight plan. It's usually somewhere on the right side. Look for a line w/ this info: CRZ SYS CI 5
