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!

Intro Music by Fly24: • Distance Too Far.
I consider you one of the best Airbus pilots to exist. We all love your videos and I really enjoy them. You helped me in so many aspects of Airbus and I wanna thank you. Keep up the amazing work cant wait to see you grow a lot more!
That is really far too kind of you to say! I'm really pleased you enjoy the content and thank you for commenting and watching!
I thought the FO goes inside, get acouple of Starbucks(First Officers Treat) then comes back to the flight deck and has to set up everything as the Captain spent the whole turnaround on his phone and doing swaps!
These videos are just simply amazing! Loving every single one!
Thank you so much! Really appreciate it.
He must work for Ryanair. He completed the whole turnaround in about 20 mins 😂
Great video as always.
A suggestion for the future: Could you do videos about "emergency simulations"? MSFS allows us to generate some emergencies, maybe you could talk us through how to approach some of them, like landing with only one engine.
Also, I was able to find this video via the playlist you made, even though it is not yet listed in uploads. I am not sure if this is intentional. That, or my UA-cam is bugged, since the video only has one view right now.
In general, I applaud your diligence concerning playlists. Keep up the good work!
yes following on from @meta system you could use rand failiures with alot of failiures.
Also if someone knows how to use rand failiures how do you set it up?
Great content as always! Much appreciated. your content has pretty much single handedly taught me how to use the a320 in sim. Im just building the courage to use it on VATSIM now! Thanks so much!
Thanks so much for doing this one. I was really looking forward to it to make multi-stage flights I like to do quicker and more realistic. Keep up the great tutorials!
You are very welcome, I hope it helps with that!
Thanks for another great video. I'm using Pushback Express (payed add-on)for the interaction with the ground crew. Makes the push-backs and ground operations much more realistic. No more talking to ATC necessary!
You are welcome Bart and thanks for the info, I will take a look!
Jesus that snow looks too real.
Thank you for the video!
Thanks for watching! The weather system and graphics in MSFS are indeed excellent.
Sweet, we've been waiting for this one!
I hope it was useful!
Great and informative video as always!
If you get the message that it cannot find the baggage truck, you can just request it a second time and it will work!
(Same with the other ground service items, it will spawn them in when it says it cannot find them)
Thank you for watching and the great tip!
Very nice, great hearing the ins and outs from a real life airbus pilot. loving your vids
What about the bit where you walk down the aisle and help pick up all the rubbish left behind. X)
Only on Ryanair 🤣
Thank you for everything you post! Could you do a similar video using the Fenix?
I will see what I can do!
never opened a video so fast
Bit of a glitch in mfs, if you park at a stand that atc havent given you, you will often have to ask twice for the ground services eg ask for the baggage services and gpu etc. great video and thanks for the insight! 👍
Thanks Lukasz! Great spot, thanks for watching.
@@320SimPilot hey mate just have a question which is kind of technical which I thought you could help me with!
I was on final into Brisbane and the winds were pretty gusty and I hit toga power a few times momentarily to help stabilise the approach, once I landed and had turned the aircraft around the MCDU PERF page went straight to the go around page every time I clicked the performance page. When I set flex on take off it displayed MAN GA SOFT instead of the normal flex temperature, when I got airborne I could not select managed alt and the managed speed was the approach speed from the previous arrival. I also couldn’t select a alt greater than 30,000ft (in the init page it would say entry out of range), I am assuming in that situation for normal procedures I would’ve had to go around on that approach but I’m not quite sure. Hopefully you can help a bit so I can avoid that problem next time. Thanks 🙏
Nice video, but what is the car doing outside at 18:18...?!?
😂
Turn around..... bright eyes! (total eclipse of the heart)
My wife's favorite song...
I participated in draining a 727 after reposition to long term parking. It didn't seem very complicated from the fueling perspective, we just showed up with an empty truck instead, though iirc the SPR was connected to a different port than the standard point for refuel
Hope you're able to do some real flights in the current situ. Anyways really enjoying these videos!
Thanks for watching, I do still get to fly occasionally which has been fantastic!
You’re awesome.
It must have been bitter in the cabin on the flight to LFPG with the cabin heat knobs all on cold!😂
Yes we need some air conditioning feedback at home I think!
@@320SimPilot Reminds me of being in the hold on the a350 live stream😆
Very useful video again. Thanks. As already suggested by 'meta system', a video about emergency situations would be appreciated.
Roger! Thanks for watching Hans!
Quick Note: 8:02 - Sometimes, FS2020 is buggy and you need to click twice on the "Baggage Service" button, 1st time, it will say "We dont know where the baggage is", but then it spawns outside. On the next time you call them, they will do the work and animations. Same with many items on that list (mostly if you go on a random gate and dont ask the ingame ground controller for a gate)
It happens when you park on an empty gates. So the first request is pawning the ground crews. While the second request execute the command. When there are ground crew available you'll only need to call once. So it is very predictable, just look at the ground crew exist on your gate/ramp or not.
Ah great spot, thank you! I had wondered why it didn't work first try.
Oh, so the IRS doesn't need to be aligned every flight? That's cool to know, thanks for clarifying that :)
Indeed not every flight. Thanks for watching!
Love your video's also love MSFS 2020, only thing I've noticed is compared to the free simulator Flightgear, is MSFS is that there are no contrails, also no spray off the wheels when on a wet runway
Thank you Clive! Yes contrails would be nice and spray effects in the wet.
Great channel! Love the videos! Can you please do a vatsim tutorial once? Cheers
Thank you, I will see what I can do!
@@320SimPilot great thanks a lot!
the flybywire team have created a custom A320NX loading preset to use with SimBrief, so the weights and fuel consumption are correct, which isn't the case if you use the default SimBrief A320-200 preset. the preset is on their github page.
Thanks for the tip Bernard! Great find.
Can you give a link? I can't find it on their github page.
you have to look out of the window on the right at minute 11:29 a vehicle flies into the building xD
Most important question, coffee before and/or after the walkaround, and does the pilot doing cockpit prep buy?
Great question, after usually works best so it is still warm! Thanks for watching.
18:17 yo did they chuck a car off the terminal building?
you might want to turn off motion blur in MSFS, since the UA-cam codec doesn't seem to deal very well with fast panning around the cockpit with it on.
Thanks Bernard, I'll try this in future.
Love your videos! Best way to learn more and more about this great aricraft. A question, how do you enable the option to show the MAC% / CG when you open the weigh page with the simulator in flight (not in main menu)? Thank you si much!
If you want announcements and pax sim for mfs I will recommend Luke air application. However it is still beta and has a few bugs.
If you ever want to fly into EGKK I recommend using the Gatwick extreme add on, as not only does it make the sceanary better, but it also has a primitive form of a safe dock which is more than any add on airport I have seen and it is free aswell
Thanks for the continuing lessons. What does the "FREEZE" button mean / do on the screen when checking the IRS drift?
Thank you! Could you make a video on the new feature TRK/FPA on A32NX Dev version? :)
On the way very soon! Thanks for watching Harold!.
Hello, great video!! I wounder, if u have both the groundpower and the APU on in the same time. As u have in this video, how should Beacon be then? If it´s on the groundcrew cant go near plane and remove groundpower. In a previos video u sad if I remember right that when u turn on APU u should turn on Beaconlight.
And one more time thank you for really good and helpfull videos!
Can you do a turnaround with the default a320?
Thanks sir. Great video, again! Question pls, at what point do you get your IFR clearance and does your company do this via ACARS or over the radio? Thanks.
Do you know why the letters W,S,N,E are specially boxed on the MCDU?
These are used often when entering co ordinate waypoints, hence N orth, S outh, E ast and W est. So they are easier to see for that purpose!
Another Qu ... approx how long do you have, if the external power gets disrupted, to get the APU started with the batteries?
You need to be fairly quick, I however do not have an exact time! Usually if this happens we would start it immediately if possible.
@@320SimPilot Thanks! I suppose you might not be the one to ask "how big (kWh) is the battery? " as it's "technical"!
@320simpilot I'm on Xbox which limits my modding ability unfortunately. But I have a question, when you do your flights in MSFS do you use ATC while flying IFR? Sometimes they aren't always the greatest with altitude especially when the flight plan wants you to descend and they don't.
I've got a little question: You said taxing is with engine 1 but you should allways start engine 2 first. Why?
Has to do with which hydraulic systems each engine powers. I believe engine 1 powers the hydraulics for the brakes so that's why they taxi on number 1
@@quintenzappe3412 I know why to taxi with engine one but why should you the start engine two first?
How did you disabled the End Flight Menu?
Hi, how do you land perfectly on the centerline ? When I flare, I always drift to the left or right... how do I counteract that ? :)
Having the same probem :(
@@aaryanramourti3081 yes the flight model in general (when close to the ground or landing) is very iffy and my A320 always wants to pop right back up
Obviously practice, but more helpfully, take control off the AP well before 1,000ft AGL - while in practice you need to "get a feel" of the plane in different conditions, weather and weights etc, then focus on the entire approach from that moment, don't just try to nail the touch down itself, that will come. Big things to watch are a stable decent speed..
When you fly over the runway threshold, look/aim at the far end of the runway, and use your peripheral vision to keep your wings level, use the audio call outs and periferal vision to judge how hard to pull back and hold the flare... Use the airlerons or rudder very gently to make mini corrections / to kick straight any crab. But if you lined up well down to minimums, usually 200ft, the rest really does have much better chance... hence take over from the autopilot before 1,000ft AGL and really try hard to keep the things lined up, it will come second nature pretty quick and you'll centre line it without even trying
Loved the video! How do you get it so the logbook page doesn't pop up every time you turn the engines off after a flight?
i would like to know too it is pretty annoying.
Simple question. I see a a320 profile on simbrief but not one for the 320 neo. Am I missing something?
3:38 how did you switch to manual brakes?
How do you make the fuel panel show the center of gravity part after loading a flight (14:24)? For me it always shows fuel and payload
I have simbrief linked, but my mcdu dont show INIT Request in the initpage when i loaded in the flightplan? did i miss something ?
Why is turbine still spinning on the ground ? Maybe wind but they always spin in my game.
Any idea why sometimes when I activate 'appr' for ILS it just turns itself off - it seems really random, sometimes it activates and I land fine with it, I do the exact same route and 'appr' or 'loc' won't activate? Is it an MCDU bug in MFS?
Hey i love your Videos. Perfect and helpful. One tip you can now use the app pushback helper for an easy pushback! Thank you for your amazing Job you did hear!
Hi Alex, thanks for watching and your kind message! I will definitely take a look at the pushback helper, will be very useful.
Hey how do i turn off that annoying menu that comes up after you turn off engines?
Hi 320 :). May I ask about your PC specs? I am thinking about building a PC for
sim and love the way yours looks and performs.
Hi Dale, thanks for watching! Specs are: i7-10700K , 32GB Ram (3200MHZ) , 1tb NVME SSD, RTX 3080. Currently my frame rates in MSFS are CPU limited, I previously had an RTX 2060 Super in this PC and I have not noticed a huge change since upgrading to the 3080 except a couple of graphics settings and going from 1080p to 1440, however this could change in the future.
Thanks so much! This is really helpful. My interest is in getting as close to real airliner procedure as possible sitting at my desk. Your channel is among the top few that I watch to learn SIM aviation.
Have you done two MSFS2020 flights with a turnaround like this? Using the last stable FBW version I have often been likely to have "strange behaviour problems" with the second flight.
So you drink airplane coffe? :D not shitting blood yet?
"Someone will have to do the walkaround"... comes across with the slightest hint of apprehension :) Wonder if the standard operating procedure is to draw straws.
It will depend on the procedure for the airline but it is nearly always split 50/50 in the end, so choose the warmest one!
@@320SimPilot "you take left, I'll take right" kind of deal?
@@eno88 No. Only 1 person does the exterior walkaround. The 50/50 split means you take turns on different legs. Someone has to be inside programming the computer for next leg.
I thought you had to keep the beacon on when the APU is running?
Beacon is to show that engines are on or plane is moving.
@@ephphatha230 beacon is to warn ground crew that there's a jet engine running in the aircraft. Sorry but your wrong according to my training.
Hi David, there is no need to have the Beacon on whilst the APU is running, at least that is my experience in Europe. The Beacon is normally only turned on once the ground crew have moved clear and are ready for engine start.
@@davidh7280 see I was right 🤣
Is there anyway you can just reverse the route if you dont use SIM brief. example Dublin to Gatwick and Gatwick back to Dublin without having to exit and do the flight plan via the flight plan page. the reason why I ask is I'm not very confident with the MCDU as of yet.
Hey Mate. I sent you an email with some questions last week. Not sure if you got it or not. I'm assuming no because you have not responded to it yet. :-( But i have a question on this video for the turn around. I noticed when you turned the engines off, the screen for options didn't pop up and stop the sim like it does when i turn the engines off. I always have to click continue at the bottom and then it will continue where i left off. I kinda hate when that happens. How do you stop that from happening? Tnx
how do you feel about the fbw system? It feels kind of unresponsive to me especially at low speeds. I am used to the A320x from Flightsimlabs in fsx.
@@737simviator You mean the not fbw plane? I think even the standard msfs model is kind of sluggish. If you pull up in the fslabs airbus it will directly pull up and keep the attitude where its close to max angle of attack and will stay there.
It is definitely still a work in progress and not yet at the same level as FSLabs or ToLiss/FF. But it does improve regularly, most recently the pitch attitude on final approach was modified to be much more representative which is great. I agree that it can feel sluggish at times, yet over sensitive in the flare. Thanks for watching!
@@320SimPilot Thats exactly how i feel too. Nonetheless the improvement over the standard Asobo Airbus is huge. Thank you for your videos.
How comes you can still run the APU with fuel pumps off?
The APU has its own fuel pump which starts automatically when the APU is turned on.
@@peterhastings703 Oh I thought the 2 centre fuel pump buttons were for APU.
@@ephphatha230 the centre pumps are for the centre fuel tank, they run automatically when fuel is in the tank as long as they are turned on. Peter has provided the answer which is there is no need to run the fuel pumps as the APU can get it's fuel anyway!
what does the ground control switch do?
how you manage to get fast responses from ATC?
Some sequences in the video have been shortened but generally in game ATC responds quite quickly for me!
@@320SimPilot do you have any add-ons for that?
Once again a great video, thanks. Question: do you use the in game ATC or not? Because i was wondering if you need to ask for altitude increase when it is plugged in the mcdu, or should they grant it?
Pretty sure you still have to request just incase there has been a change and there are aircraft above you. If you fly through the step point and don’t climb it will automatically delete it
I don’t know how the in game ATC specifically handles this but in general, ATC clears you to your initial cruise altitude. If you have a step climb in flight, you will need to request this from ATC.
Always wonder how does the airline pilot get out from the plane to do the walk around.. do they go via the jet way, or is their a ladder or something.
there is a way to get out to the jetway, a ladder
