Thank you for this video honestly when i bought the jardesign a320 i had no idea what to do but this video explained everything in so much detail!!! Great vid im subscribing and liking
Great video, I loved how you said after the take-off that you needed to clean up the aircraft, probably the pilot and fo's seats as well

lol! Yeah... that was not a text book takeoff. I should have rejected the takeoff when I heard the Honeywell computer say I only had 1500 feet left and I was still not even to 120 knots. I didn't do the math on the runway properly since I was in tutorial mode and not fully loaded flight mode in my brain. heheeheh.
I've been watching some tutorials about the A320 preparations before depart and this is the best by far. Very well explained, easy to understand and very friendly. Great job! You have my subscription now. Greatings from Barcelona!

The most positive takeoff I've ever seen)
Really enjoyed watching this vid. I learnt a lot about the JAR A320 from this. Thanks a lot.
I've set flex temp on a few occasions and then had to hit toga when I see those piano keys coming up. That was great, but I don't share your views on the A320. Flown dozens of times with Easyjet in the UK and never had a bad flight. Very informative tutorial..... Well done.
You have probably, the best combination of plugins for environment, sky etc I ever seen. Clearly you have also a powerfull computer.

I am not a pilot but I am very much engaged with the community and know a few real world pilots that work for Southwest and Envoy Air. All my A320 training came from watching the Baltic Aviation School courses on the A320 so I just translated that into a good simulator based tutorial. The JARDesign A320 is pretty detailed and thus most of what I taught here is compliant with the real A320. The FlightFactor A320U is a high complexity version of this aircraft but this tutorial still valid for that aircraft simulation.
I understand but it depends of the airliner you fly, so if you fly with other company your experience may be better! Great video!!
I just love the non-stop flap motor bark on the airbus lol

I have a question, I am trying to find the information about my top of the scent as far as nautical miles from top of the scent I'm pushing the progress button mid-flight while I'm headed to my location but I'm not getting any top of the descent information?

I am 100% on your side with the Airbus hate. I dislike flying on this plane in real life myself, but since i fly on united I have no choice. The only reason I want to learn it on here is so I can fly to more airports with challenging approaches overseas with my friends on VATSIM
Good JOB CAPTAIN !!! Enjoyed,...had a Hard time with Auto PILOT tracking the way it should though,...Jardesign's fault I think.

Welcome.
i can never adjust alt nor speed on ff a 320 i see up and down arrows only. is there a sweet spot as u say to change cursor and settings on ff?
Do you know how to update the nav data? For some reason I cannot get actual SIDs for KDCA...it literally makes it impossible to make a flight plan and is frustrating, especially considering how expensive the plane is.
Can you turn on the lights and displays with only battery power (irl)?
Do u have a sound pack or something? The sounds on the default are just horrendous and yours sound real
Did you take off with the APU on? There isn't any TOGA?
Nice video. are you using X-Life or pilot2atc?
As a pilot that has flown as a passenger on a Aloha 737-200 and a Airbus A320 I can say for me the Airbus of the 2 was a lot smoother and quieter. Your mileage may vary.
Whenever i do a waypoint, it's unable to do it. Also, I can't get rid of discontinuity, even if i try to clear it, it wont.
sir on the FMA after takeoff the NAV mode is still blue and the RNW TRK is green...so the aircaft is not following the flight plan....ive tried pushing the heading selector but when i do so the HDG is showing green not the NAV.....Please help
I apologize for all the questions the other interesting question I cannot figure out is how do you get the ILS tones sound once you're established on a localizer I do not hear any of the customary beep beep beep tones? I have the radio turned on I have the green light on an ILS on yet I do not hear any of the tones in this plane. Thank you in advance

I sadly don't have a suggestion. I did nothing special. It all just worked out of the box. Keep in mind I have the BlueSkyStar payware soundpack which may have additional SoundFX you do not have if you are using default sounds. The outer marker tone and stuff should play provider the airport has these beacons at it.
whats the name of the program that your using for fuel that you have shown here in this video?
I love pilot2atc! APU still running at takeoff?
Hey just a qustion I hope you reply could this help for real life training too?
How do you get the things on the side like the fuel truck and all?

I'm assuming you found the answer by now but you need to update the navigation data.
what app do you use to make a flight plan?
Dang I wish I could update my navdata to actually fly this plane. Don't feel like buying a subscription that I'll only use once. Do you know why my airac cycle is on like a 1404 from September 2014 on the Jar? It bought the aircraft way past 2014, so I expect to be in the 1600s.
@CaptainKMan

Because that was the one they were allowed to have for free. AIRAC's aren't free. They require a lot of work to update. If you don't want a subscription you can purchase update tokens from Navigraph I believe. You can choose when to update a certain number of times you purchase. If you are flying online with Vatsim or IVAO you will want a sub because they rely on update to date charts to guide you. If your AIRAC is way out of whack you won't be able to navigate online properly and then you'll get a controller yelling in your ear that you are off course.

I have a subscription to Navigraph. I used the FMS Data Manager to install the data automatically as it is updated to the latest cycle. You can also manually add the data by downloading it from Navigraph for the JARDesign Axx series of aircraft and just unpack the contents into the A320's install folder in the NavData sub folder. Either way, AIRAC cycles are not free.

You need access to an AIRAC data provider. The two big ones are Navigraph and Aerosoft Navdata PRO. Once you have a new cycle package from either of these you would plug it in to the custom data folder in the A320 aircraft folder per the instructions in the JARDesign manual.

how do i add liveries to the a320?
@CaptainKMan

In the A320's install directory there is a subfolder labelled LIVERIES. If the livery package you want to install was done right you usually just open the ZIP file and drag the livery folder inside the ZIP file to the Liveries folder. Next time you start X-Plane the new livery should be in the drop down menu.

Captain K-Man wish you and your family a Happy New Year. The A320 Jardesign is not following the altitudes programmed into the MCDU. Apparently the route I have programmed into the MCDU is now being followed but not the altitude. Any suggestions?

@CaptainKMan

Are you trying to use VNAV for your climb? If so, are the altitudes achievable by the computer per waypoint up to your TOC? I rarely use VNAV myself. I like turning nobs so I am usually in Lvl Change mode and adjusting my altitude as ATC gives me instructions. Check your ECAM monitor. There should be a blue message on it telling you what is wrong. I get this warning from the FO when landing because he's waiting for you to be configured properly for the landing. For takeoffs, I don't have trouble with him. Watch WHEN I call on the FO while on the ground. If you try to do something out of sequence or before its time he will give you that error message. I haven't flown the A320 in weeks. Waiting for the FF A320 which looks superior.

Once the main generators are supplying power the APU is no longer required and is just burning extra fuel. It probably differs by airline but I shut mine off after engine start and complete and the generators are now supply power and airduct pressure for the PAX system.

Most likely. It's kind of the way we do it in the 737. After the both engines are on, establish PAX Air, switch off APU Bleed then power down the APU and finish up before taxi checklists. I need a lot more practice in the Airbus.
