Absolutely stunning! Rumour has it that upon it's release Airbus will be purchasing it to make their A320 more accurate to real life.

WOW, there is a phenomenal level of detail here. Fenix has surpassed my already very high expectations, I can already tell this will feel like a living, breathing Airbus within our sims. And you've done a phenomenal job showcasing her, thanks for all you do.

Just an insane level of detail! Fenix have done an incredible job by the looks of it. I heard that even the orange cones outside appear in slightly different locations each time! And that the standby compass deflects when the engine ignition fires up. Just incredible!

For another detail on realism, take a look at the EFB. When the window is closed it has the cable attached to it. Notice that the battery level of the tablet is at 82%. When you unlock the window, the cable is detached and you can move the window. When you close it again, the cable is attached again. Notice @5:32 the battery level dropping 1%. When the battery of the aircraft comes on then is charging again the EFB and the battery level goes up! Just perfect, just speechless...

This project appears to be to be the very definition of a labour of love. Details included not because they add much to the day to day user experience, but simply because they exist. Incredible. On a personal note, I don’t know if you’re part of your operators training department, but you seem well suited to it regardless! I’m trying to get myself into the A320 as a type that I might find myself on should airlines ever start recruiting again, even if it’s just for the sim assessment! I’ve subbed enthusiastically and look forward to some tutorials!

Recruitments will start sooner or later. It's just a matter of time. :-) The Fe ix Bus for sure should help gibe a good feel for the sim part of any assesment.

Hi Captain - as a long-time viewer who has learnt pretty much everything I know about Airbus from you, firstly thank you for everything you have done for the community. If you can find the time at some point, it would be great to have a video showing the differences between the CEO & NEO versions of the 320 that we need to be aware of.

The level of detail in this aircraft is just insane. I never expected to watch the whole video but not only did you make this educational but also very entertaining. I'm excited for this aircraft and I'm glad you reviewed it.

Just.. wow! At 6mins I wondered if the brake fan would actually rotate..... lo & behold 2 minutes later, it did! Just brilliant!! 😁 Can't wait to fly this! 🛫

I am out of words! I have been a flight simmer since the 90s and this is the stuff I have been waiting for. I'm shaking from pure excitement!

This virtual depiction of the plane is one of the most incredible things I've ever seen

I love how excited you get at doing your actual job virtually on a computer! Its infectious and your videos are incredibly informative. Thank you for everything you give to this community. PS. I also love this livery, brings back very fond memories! I wish I still had the models i begged my parents to buy me on the flights back home.

Fantastic simulation all round. The newly raised quality standard for MSFS airliner add-ons. One tiny concern, and that is the lack of wing flex. Although beautifully modelled and drawn, the wings seem to be made of concrete! They remained pretty rigid throughout the flight!

She continues to impress! Cannot wait to see you live with her finally!

Your illuminating, knowledge, passion, joy and excitement shine through for this product as it has done for many other quality products. When I listen to your descriptions I feel like have been let into your work place to share secrets I will find difficult to get elsewhere. Thanks again.

My mind is officially blown! In all my years of flight simming I've NEVER seen anything like this! My expectations have been blown past. And having an experienced Airbus pilot and excellent teacher to walk us through it is delicious icing on the cake. Thank you, thank you!

Absolutely amazing, really excited about this aircraft, also this is one of my favourite airports! Hopefully the release will be soon. Thank you so much for this preview and great work on the video and external views demonstrating this beautiful aircraft :)

Hey man if you start doing daily uploads, I'm going to get use to them!!!! xD Awesome stuff ! :D

Holy smoke, Aamir and the team have done a brilliant job. Cracking video as ever. I CANNOT WAIT to get this aircraft!

Never have I wanted to spend £49.99 more in my life. Can not wait to try this. Yet another great video!

Prefer this kind of content far more then the Streams, thank you so much… I feel like a kid a before Christmas…. Can’t wait!!

It's amazing what flight simulation has come up to. So immersive, I almost felt the G-load during take-off, while watching XD. And amazing video - very well done, sir!

Excellent video 320 SimPilot , I use the FBW aircraft .. Being a novice to Flight Simulation i love MSFS . Everytime i watch your video content i learn so much more about how to pilot this plane .. i would love to go back in time and choose being a pilot as a career path . Thank you

Wow, just wow!!! A am flying the A32NX by FlyByWire and wondered why I would be bothered with another A320 model but Fenix certainly has added some incredible details that make me seriously wonder now. And what to say about SimPilot? Your fantastic knowledge of the aircraft and amazing videos are the best one can wish for when discovering MSFS 2020. A huge thanks on my behalf.

Thanks again for such a wonderful video! Loving the features of this aircraft.

This is the benchmark now for any future addon developers

I'm currently still an X-Plane user but seeing all these new releases for MSFS has really motivated me to consider upgrading my PC.... Excited to see whats coming next in the future.

Luckily I’m part of the beta team and I only can say it’s a labour of love for the Fenix team to build such an amazing product. You can’t do that kind of quality without passion and love. It’s not all about making money it’s also a question of personal aspiration.

Thank you captain for showing us another video of how this magnificent aircraft is doing. FENIX has already convinced me with this A320 and now my only question is whether this plane is light on MSFS. PMDG's 737-700 is very light on MSFS. So I would like to know if this A320 is too? Taking the opportunity, I would like to know if in the future we will have the A319 and the A321? Thanks.

This looks incredible! Happy to pay when the quality is this high

The level of detail is just insane. Regarding liveries wouldn’t be great if we can get grime built up the more the plane is flown, starting with a brand new shining livery straight out of the paint shop.

Now this truly is the next generation of flight simulation

Top video mate! I am so glad I couldn't buy the pmdg 737 when it came out because I'm gonna wait for this instead.

Absolute incredible. And I am still hoping for a cargo version :) But now I am curious: Is that brake fan really spinning inside that small fan housing when switching it on in the cockpit? This amount of detail even animating such tiny things not visible when using the normal camera would not only be incredible insane amount of realism! Oh - 7:53 haha this is absolute CRAZY awesomeness they have animated the brake fan!! Thiy Airbus is beyond. It´s probably the original model the Matrix uses for real flights converted for Flight Sim 20. But.... can you fly with that camera through the APU air inlet and see the APU inside? ;)

Absolutely stunning thanks for all your real world knowledge being put online with your great easy to understand tutorials. Does this version of the A320 by Fenix model the Ram Air Turbine or was it to early.🤗

Just going to love this plane /addon!!!! Big Hurra for Fenix Sim!!!

I love how we can hear the excitement about this product in your voice 😍🙂🛫

Absolutely love your vids 🙏

This is unbelievable, real crazy, amazing plane and amazing video as well

That CFM56 sound is absolutely spot on!

Just to mention another level of detail is that if you zoom in on ANY sign externally you can read every word perfectly...just outstanding in every aspect...I'd buy it as is! seems perfect now!

wow amazing video as always! Well done sir!

Absolutely awesome aircraft and video from yourself as always. I did however notice there was no tyre smoke on landing. Is that something they are aware of and will implement do you know? Many thanks again.

The level of realism is just impressive, can't even imagine what we are going to have in the next 5-10 years. Exciting times we live in!

PMDG - We are releasing the most advanced aircraft for MSFS FENIX (one week later) - Hold my beer I really hope FENIX develop the A350 next. Already an A330 and A380 in development On the flap buffet clip the engines create heat haze as well. Gavin at EZYsimpilot said if you have the standby compass down and start the APU the compass will spin due to electrical interference from the APU starters

Hi Captain. Have been a subscriber of yours since I started flying the Toliss 321 in XP11 and learnt a heck of alot from your tutorials. Seeing now that you have been on the Fenix Alpha/Beta team has been exciting to hear and then see with your subsequent tutorials. I can tell by the excitement in your voice, that you truly believe this to be the most realistic simulation of the real aircraft. I would love to hear your thoughts on the flight dynamics compared to the real aircraft given the Asobo limitations on ground effect and how the aircraft appears to float somewhat on landing, even with the fbw A32nx. Also I'd be curious to know if the seats can be moved forward and backwards and up/ down to adjust to your liking at all? Love your work Captain, as always, keep providing us with content of this amazing aircraft and with your real world context . Thanking you.👍

Great video!!!

Whatched it all incredible 🔥🔥🔥

So….the cockpit EFBs are there to play noughts and crosses on? Lol. Great video.

Very nice indeed. Now I'm not the world's biggest Airbus fan (I find them boring to fly in the sim, akin to babysitting) but I can certainly appreciate the complexity and attention to detail here, it's absolutely unparalleled in it's execution.

That flap shake is really well done and it's something fslabs missed. Lovely!

Thank you for the great video! What playback software do you use? And did I get it right that pushback helper is no longer needed for the Fenix (is it even working with it?)?

Thank you for the video

I hope that if it is modeled that well, it also has a proper rain drop simulation on the windscreens and not the wipers running for nothing

another small detail: when starting the apu if the standby compass is out you can see the compass swing around from the apu starter magnetic field.

Great video & super showcase a most realistic study level commercial jet. Love it. Do the sun shades move up & down in passenger cabin windows? because I did see some partially closed and opened in your external view at landing her. Do the windscreen wipers move the rain away?

Hi! Which mods do you use to have such a realistic lightning and HDR? The shots inside the cockpit with the exposed bright sun lighting outside are amazing! My MSFS doesn't have this kind of realistic lighting, when I am inside the cockpit I can see the outside without any difference of lighting. Without this pupil aperture effect that yours have. How can I achieve the same effect on my simulator? Thank you in advance for the attention and congratulations for the video! Amazing work and review of the plane!

Thank you for another great vid! I did notice the hydraulic systems are not on the ECAM in the order you mentioned them (Green Yellow Blue) (timestamp 10:48). Was that just a small error or are they modeled incorrectly?

You should really get FSrealistic, it offers camera shakes upon touchdown both with the main and front gear. Great for immersion!

One question is there any function on the mcdu to regulate the brakes pedals pressure as fslabs ? I don’t have rudder pedals and it could be great thanks!nice video!

I'm glad I'm not the only one who forgets to turn on the fuel pumps sometimes.

@10:00, would you save energy by having the External Power connected and running and also the air conditioner hose connected to provide cool air or warm air to the cabin thereby not needing the APU for the bleeds?

28:18 Dang, you can even hear the ding when you put the gear up. Or is it the gear? I'm not sure 28:25 I love how you can see that the nose is starting to go up but it takes like a second or two for the plane to start climbing and you can tell the alpha angle is high

Wow! This is really a great module. MSFS is so realistic, they modeled the guys out front correctly, just standing there talking, lol.

Well, I'll be buying this...RIGHT NOW!

thank you very much, so full of interesting comments, excellent review, really looking forward to learning how to flight this plane with your tutorials :-) i would be interested to know what are the points that are not accurate to the real aircraft. From 1 to 100% how would you rate this product when compared to the real stuff? i have the feeling this is almost accurate to the real airbus!

Any chance you can show Direct To with radials? In the Flight Factor A320 I used to use them to extend runway centerline in a pattern and it always felt so useful.

It is the Fenix A320. Yes, this works.

Nice to see the Manta make a cameo in the background.

Just a note: an accumulator is usually a cylinder with half of it containing a membrane/bladder like a balloon that is filled with nitrogen then it is filled with hydraulic fluid compressing the nitrogen filled bag to a certain pressure then closed. When needed you can then open the accumulator and pressurize the system with the pressure stored in it. Just to clarify for whoever wanted to know. This is one type of accumulator not sure if it's what Air planes use but it is on life boat launch systems that I work on. Cheers!

It looks so amazing! The only feature I wish they’ll add is state saving, so you load in the way you last left it

Hi! How loud is the cockpit when you're flying the aircraft, and how loud is it when you're watching the plane from outside? In the Fly by Wire version, you can adjust the volume and there's a nice low rumble. Here? And more one... Is the cruising wind /wind sound/ very loud at 400-450gs kt? How does the night lighting in the cockpit compare to fly by wire? Thanks!

i find these videos very therapeutic as passenger 😀

The detail whereby the NotAniPad draining battery when cold and dark is mind blowing.

Fantastic!
