- Join me as we look through the various Ice protection systems on the Airbus and how we might use them 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 MSFS2020 A320. Hopefully you find this useful and it brings another perspective to your simulation. Any thoughts or comments are welcome!

I wish my instructors were like you. Simple teaching, explaining and so soft voice 🤣
Glad you find it helpful! Thanks for watching Calvin
Another super helpful take from the man himself, thank you sir!
You are welcome Fin!
Thanks for explaining the window anti-ice glitch as I've actually had a flight almost end because of that, if you're descending on AP and it happens the aircraft will begin to nosedive and overspeed very quickly.
Geez, that game looks so much better on your PC. Can't wait to get my hands on decent hardware...hopefully soon. As always thanks for your awesome educational videos.
This just backs up my conclusion...I’m leaving the icing effects off. Resembles frost from overnight and well, your video sums it up. Good stuff!
I cant find a way to turn the icing effects off.."ridiculous" is the perfect description of the MSFS2020 icing effect.
I was very fortunate to sit alongside the Training Captain on a full scale simulator when he introduced an engine failure on take off from a very snowy Manchester Airport. The first officer was being put through his paces and the accompanying Captain suggested a reduction of power on the starboard engine with a hope to reduce the vibrations. It was incredibly realistic. The first officer was then asked what he wanted to do after the starboard engine had to be shut down because the vibrations did not reduce on throttle back. He suggested Manchester and asked for the weather which was pretty cold. It was at this time that he remembered that the EICAS indicated no wing anti ice available as this was (at the time) provided by the starboard engine. He then suggested diverting to Liverpool Airport and asked for the weather there. the Training Captain said that the weather was sunny and 23C :-) The first office made the right choice of course. I was allowed to take off and fly a circuit at Innsbruck when the training had been completed. It was an unforgettable experience.
I never press the deicing buttons in MSFS2020 when i fly the A320, all that rocking to the left and right should shake off any ice buildup 😁
Thank you
"They aren't attractive to ice".
I think what you mean to say is the aircraft isn't cool enough.
Hey, can you make more tutorials on the A320N, the flybywire project is making log of development on the MCDU, so could you please do a tutorial on that , also if possible a RNAV approach would be really helpful , thank you for your amazing content
He does have a video covering entering in a FP from scratch into the MCDU/FMS ua-cam.com/video/c7UJlJMJdfk/v-deo.html. He also mentions items that are not modeled but what they would do IRL if they where modeled.
Very educational. Commercial piloting has always been my dream but when I tried to be one at 17. I did not pass my Medical level 1 and now I am 36 and still dreaming about it :D Well only SIM-ing for me.
The magic of flight simulation! I hope these videos can continue to help you enjoy flying the Bus in the virtual skies!
Thank you man!!! A real pilot refreshing the knowledge before Winter with your video 👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I am absolutely loving these videos! Could you possibly do a full flight with commentary on everything you do during a flight. Even stuff like how soon before a flight you would arrive at the cockpit. Just a real time look at everything that happens?
Hi Jimmy, thanks for your comment and kind words. A few people have requested a full flight so I will see what I can do!
Hi Jimmy, thanks for your comment and kind words. A few people have requested a full flight so I will see what I can do!
Frost build up on upper and lower inboard surface of the wing because of the fuel inside being cooled down by the subzero ambient temperature.
Great video .. good procedural awarness ..thank you,,,
Great video and fun to watch in late summer on a sunny warm day. Thanks! (Now prepared for winter season).
The MSFS Icing bug (zero air speed on PFD) is @14:08 and self corrects @14:16. In "icing" conditions (i.e. flying through cloud at FL230) it repeats the cycle and in cruise the auto-throttle increases RPM when airspeed is zero, as you were descending (auto-throttle had commanded "THR IDLE"), you didn't get the loud audio cue that usually accompanies the icing bug (frozen pitot tube ?). Switching from Pitot Heating "AUTO" to "ON" fixes the issue.
GREAT VIDEO 320!
looks great as always pilots move as well ..ha.. imagine all the years of hard work and great design thats gone into these airliners
Yes it certainly provides great and dramatic visual effects! Hope you are well David.
and you sir hope everything is good
Thank you❤
I find your tutorials VERY informative and educational. They have helped me a lot! Thanks muchly! :-)
Outstanding videos that are both informative and a pleasure to watch
Thank you, great video and much appreciated
You're welcome Mike, thank you!
Great video! I’d also be interest in a video about all the different lights and when to use them. Beacon, strobe, etc.
the ice on the aircraft look like space shuttle tiles ha hope they sort it soon the graphics on the ground looks great
Don't know about others but I had to put a sweater on whilst watching this :/ ( another great insightful video )
Yep! A lot of ice, it scores high in the focus groups
Would it be possible for you to explain what to do with a missed approach/Holding? I feel its such an important procedure and yet nobody is explaining it in the Airbus.
blackbox.oneengineout.com/video/airbus-a320/
Maybe I missed but I'd like to learn how to tune and show on the screen the VORs and NDBs to navigate using them, since some airports don't show SIDs and STARs, if, of course, it has already been implemented on A320.
Thanks for the clarification on icing. I hope that as a real pilot a320 you would give Microsoft your feedback so it can me modelled properly in a future update.
i'd trust you with my life and fly with you anywhere, as long as you seat in the front while taking off.. and not in a passanger seat :D
13:47 De-anti Iced........So Iced then :-) (Just kidding, love your content)
Good catch! Thanks for watching!
Hello, your videos are very good but tbh a bit long. Making them more concise would be great (10-12mn) thanks for the content
Nice explanation can you tell me at what TAT & SAT does icing occur ??
Bro, to play this sim your pc must be better than the plane
It took a bit of upgrading to get it to work OK!
Thanks for the information! Very interesting!
You are welcome Richard, thanks for watching and commenting!
First! Love your videos. Keep em coming!
You made it first indeed! Thanks for watching 😆
Very educational video, thanks.
Your videos are by far the best on UA-cam when it comes to Flight Simulation. But how is it that your A320neo isn’t “wing rocking” the entire time it’s inflight on autopilot??? Mine does it the entire flight once it’s above FL100
i like fly airbud
Is this ice on the aircraft’s body mode or vanilla ??
Amazing, Is any way we can completely disengage icy function in MS2020
I bet the earliest prop airliners iced up very heavy. Probably a lot of crashes back in the day.
never usually went high enough, very low altitude aircraft back then
Can the A320NEO fly with a single engine , and how would you land safely could you do a vid on engine failure procedure. Great video with fabulous clear information.
How to stop forming ice on aircrafts? Any function can disable ice on plane?
really nice vids. I hope msfs 20 make a new update for mcdu
Hi I love your content, a couple of questions if I may, how do you go straight to wing view, a hot key or video editing, and the clip of music at the start of your videos is killing me I know it so well but I cant place it. :)
Hi, glad you’re enjoying it! Wing view I usually edit together. I believe you can assign a key for it but I have not yet. The music is in the description and it by Fly24 UA-cam channel!
@@320SimPilot thank you
Great Content mate loving these videos one question how are you getting the window seat view ?
I need this game! :O
I think its a bug and not really a heating issue but .. I could be wrong... but I've had the speed issue so so many times... it goes to 0 the plane dives down for a few seconds and then the speed is correctly detected again... I've always just put it down to bug since I've had it happen to me at very very random times.
and then mr freezing rain comes along and your anti icing won't help you. Scary situation one time we flew into freezing rain and things starting freezing up, 180 and got out of there real quick.
I am really loving your videos, they really teach us a lot! I have one question though, would it be possible to get official and complete A320 checklists? For normal and abnormal operation? Maybe you have access to these?
Can you make a video on when and how much to descend
Hello nice video. What are your specs they look better smooth.
Hi Dan, thank you! I7-10700K, 32GB RAM, RTX2060 Super
320 Sim Pilot hey sorry for the late reply. I was thinking on buying a MSI VENTUS RTX 2060 super 6gb gddr6. I7-8700k and 32GB 3200hz ram. Just proud to see the gpu run it so smoothly. Thanks again for replying.
Those unrealistic ice layers very annoy me, i wished to be able to disable it. Thanks for the video👍
@The Qatin Channel 🤔 oh really? I haven't seen that yet. I will check it. Thanks!
You cannot disable the ice visually.
@@ItsRobert1 - you can, by replacing MSFS with something else ;)
First, thank you for the helpful videos. Thumbs up! But I have still a question: How do you get the camera from the Passenger Cabin Window (above the wings)? I tried it with the drone mode, but in my airbus, there are no window frames modelled, when i enter the airplane passenger cabin with the drone...
Hi Oliver, you are very welcome. For those views I select the fixed camera in the showcase section and cycle through the different camera options using ‘A’ by default. I hope this helps!
Lol I'm just flying EGLL to LEMD and I looked outside and seen all this stuff on my wings etc I thought I had crashed scratch paint off 😂
Hey there, in my game there is no any information on the ecam. (Like grnd splrs armd, seat belts) how can i open it? Thank you!
Hi. 320 Sim Pilot. I love your videos and I wanted to thank you for sharing your knowledge so we can have more realism in our home flight sim! I used to fly the PMDG 737 NGX and I am now in love with the A320 through your videos. It still lacks a bit on the new MSF2020 so I mainly fly VFR there but until it gets better, which simulator between P3Dv5 and Xplane and which A320 add-on would you recommend for a better immersion with the A320 ? Thank you and keep up the good work!
Nice stream sir ! question, what is the setting in msfs ice setup in developpers mod ? Mine is set to zero, and i never see ice even when i get to high altitude ? Can you help me sir !
I ll comment that video a while after but first of all thank you for all those informations !
Even if this video is about the FBW I have a question about the Fenix :
Recently I was in icing conditions and my IAS just froze (with no ECAM warning) ! I didn t understood what was happening first and thought of a bug but I m pretty sure that it has to do with the icing conditions that I was in (the TAT was around -10°) but as you mentionned the probe heat is auto on the airbus so I really don t understand why that happened ? (by the way eng anti ice was on if that matters).
After that I disabled live weather and put a the weather in few clouds with a 37° temperature and the speed came back after a few second so it was very probably the ice.
Do you think the Fenix after 2 years since you did this video has the same issue with the probe heat that that needs to be ON in icing conditions ?
I d like to have your opinion about that ! 🙂
Hello friend, do you know which file mangae ice on plane ?
i always wondered, what those two (lights??) between the windshields are, the white and orange one... can anyone tell me, please?
www.skybrary.aero/index.php/Pilot_Seating_Position
Hi Marc, as other people have suggested, these are used to align the seat position in the real aircraft. They are not as useful in flight simulator! They are actually just small and plastic with no lighting inside. Hope this helps!
So can we confirm that the anti ice buttons do absolutely nothing on this sim other than allow for the correct speed reading? No matter what I do my planes are covered in ice and it's really frustrating.
Hey a320 Pilot, Do you prefer MFS2020 over X-plane 11? or is it just different? I've never played X-plane 11 but i couldn't believe how realistic it looks
A warning to all... Todays software update for MFS will render the A320neo completely useless. Engine 1 will power down just minutes after stabilising. This happens everytime whether using both the default A320 or the A320NX Project. :-(
I guess they had to depict the icing the way they did because of.....gamers. 1. it has to look cool, 2. otherwise they wouldn't believe it.
How to do have the door on the display. Have you put mods in
Are you in touch with the folks over at FlyByWire to consult on their A320 mod? I think that'd be a serious missed opportunity for them if you're not but I suppose they likely do have other pilots advising as well right? Anyway, the icing effects do "melt off" as you fly with the sun on the aircraft and out of those icing conditions. Personally I'm not fussed about the graphical representation of it as long as it behaves in a way that's more or less realistic anyway.
I've seen him on FBW discord once.
Backseat driver!
Stupid Cessna planes need anti-ice. :p
Too bad there isn’t a de-icer programmed into the game yet. Another helpful video. Thanks!
