New to Flight Simulator or the Airbus? Here we have a tutorial looking at the basics of taking off in the Airbus A320 NEO in Microsoft Flight Simulator!

I am a real world Airbus pilot with thousands of hours flying the real aircraft and thought it would be fun to have a look at the new detailed simulation of the longest baby 'bus by Toliss as well as the new MSFS a320 NEO. Hopefully you find this useful and it brings another perspective to your simulation. Any thoughts or comments are welcome!

GS at the top left of the the nav screen (right hand main screen) is your speed during taxi I believe

@Mogammer 3 жыл бұрын

For the sim, typically an N1 of 35% will get the plane accelerating for taxi, and I usually try to keep around 20 for the groundspeed.

@marshallhogan3440 3 жыл бұрын

This is for the 737, i’m sure it will apply for the A320 too. I am not sure what you mean by a “ Realistic pushback “. We usually get pushed back from the stand, onto the taxiway facing the direction given by ATC or in the direction to exit the apron. When we taxi, maximum N1 on the ground is 40%. Usually set 30-35% to break away. Taxi speeds are simple, 10kts on the apron, 10kts in turns, Maximum 30kts on a dry, straight taxiway. ( Usually do 20-25 ). On a runway, maximum speed is 50kts. ( When backtracking, ect. )

@rhatalos1997 3 жыл бұрын

Thank you so much for your continuing help with making the complex system that is the A320neo in MSFS usable! I also have a suggestion/request: I'd be very interested in your assessment of the aircraft T/O performance under hot & high conditions, as I have been really struggling with this. I would suggest to try this out in Quito, Ecuador, as MSFS offers you two airports nearby (the new airport with ~4000m runway at 7800ft, and the old airport with ~3000m runway at ~9000ft) - great for direct comparisons. I guess you'd always take off with flaps 2 or 3, but 4000m won't even suffice to reach rotating speed at TOGA... I'd just like to know if the aircraft's behavior is realistic. I'd also like to know what the thrust rating of the LEAP-1A engines in the sim is, but so far I've found no info on this. I somehow guess they're at one of the lower thrust ratings for the 320neo, which would explain part of the problems I've encountered... Anyway, I'm looking forward to the next bit of knowledge you share whatever it is - this is actually the first KZfaq channel I've ever felt is worth subscribing to.

For anyone wondering (like I was for a while), the final prompt you're given in the intro is to "Disarm Spoilers". As he briefly showed, the spoilers are the speed brakes located just to the left and below the parking brake lever, and need to be taken off of the "Armed" tick and set to "0" (one notch down). Maybe I'm just a doofus!

Hi there, having watched a few of your MSFS2020 (A320 NEO) videos now, I decided to have a go at starting the aircraft up from a dark and cold state and entering a flight plan into the MCDU. All went well, but I noticed in the flight plan that there doesn't appear to be any speed references for the autopilot to follow, i.e. not shown against each waypoint? I have been used to flying the Zibo 737 in XP11 and the speed profile is clearly shown in the FMC, as it is in the ToLiss A321, as seen in another of your lovely vids. Am I doing something wrong? Regards from Bedford, UK :-)

Thanks for this video. Unfortunately when I try to "fly" the A320 (using the FlyByWire add in) it does NOT follow the flight plan. I'm not doing anything obviously wrong and have tried to follow your guidance and that of others. The problem is fairly consistent. Shortly after engaging autopilot the plane starts banking steeply to the left, regardless of the flight plan. I can't see any discontinuities in it. Do you have any suggestions? (PS: I used the JAR A320 in X-Plane 11 previously and didn't have any issues).
