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!

If I ever need to land this thing in real life I'm asking to have you on the other end of the radio. Everything about all of your videos just makes it seem easy and calm.
If we ever need to land this thing in real life, i do hope the approach is an ILS approach
@@MIO9_sh Nahh, ILS approaches are boring. You have to be the controller - it feels soooo good to land manually.
Nahh, Give me a good challenge.@@nickde6339
Thank you! It's more fun to do things "properly" in the sim and I generally feel lost in the airliners.
You are welcome!
Literally. Thank you kindly for this content and its ease of use, sir!!
True, its really good to know.
The chrono at 11:45 sounds like it is cat powered. *click* MEEOOOWWWW
Good spot! I haven't been able to record a video in a while without the cat interrupting!
Don’t bother. Let the cat fly! 🤗
This is great 😂
I've learnt so much detail about the Airbus since watching your videos, thank you!
Happy to hear that Mark!
So appreciative of you making this video, have taken all the assists off recently and had been really struggling with take off, can see I was retracting the flaps way too early now so going to go away and practice doing this. Thank you so much.
Glad it helped Dean, good luck!
I swear this guy’s voice makes me so calm 😂
Please do more videos. You really are the best helping the flight sim community.
Thank you, I really appreciate it.
I would be very interested in a short video about taxiing. I can't seem to find reliable information about how a realistic pushback looks like, at how much thrust you taxi and where you can see how fast you are rolling.
GS at the top left of the the nav screen (right hand main screen) is your speed during taxi I believe
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.
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. )
@@marshallhogan3440 Thanks for all of your responses. I wanted to know if the pushback truck aligns the plane to taxi direction or if the pilots do like a 180° turn with engine thrust. So your answer was exactly what i needed.
@@rhatalos1997 The pushback do put you in direction of your taxiway but not in flight simulator
I am so grateful to have found you 320 SIM!!!!! You got me through so many headaches i did not understand about, your videos are the best man!!!!!!!! Thank you!!!!!
Awesome instructor. Can wait for full follow along flight.
awesome vid, learning loads through your content !! thanks from cornwall :)
You are a god among men, thank you for this.
Always look forward to theses videos, yet again it doesn't disappoint
Glad to hear it, thanks for watching!
Thank you so much! I was ready to quit but you made it so great to understand, and your voice makes it easy to follow. I finally did a very successful climb, and I also understand the aircraft better and what it's trying to tell me.
I have been watching your videos since the first COVID lockdown and I absolutely love them. I am by no means a Flight Sim expert so the comprehensive tutorials you give here are incredibly valuable. Thankyou!
hahaha this cat on 11.48 :D
Nice video learnt a lot of it !
Thank you very much! She appears quite regularly!
this is the best explanation I have ever seen about a take off procedure. Thanks a lot for your help
This is superb from start to finish. Great channel👍🏻
Thank you so much 👍
Hi, really valuable tips for the kind of sofa pilot like me. Im gonna test these definetely asap😊 Thanks for your efforts👍🏼
Glad you like them, I hope they work out for you!
You sir, are F*ing Awesome! You have no idea how much you have helped me progress through this Sim. Love from an aircraft/pilot enthusiast✌
Been waiting for another video from the master :)
Thanks for your comment as always Mariner, glad you enjoyed it!
Could you possibly do a video on different approaches IE ILS, VORDME, LOC, RNAV etc the only one I know is ILS and would love to learn the others. Thanks :)
Thank you so much for sharing ! Best explanation I’ve seen, you pick up tiny things others might skip or forget. Plus you’re a real pilot, an extra bonus :)
One more great video from 320 Sim Pilot. Even if I have seen take-off in you other videos, there were some details I had forgotten. Thank you and looking forward to your next video.
Thank you, most enlightening.
You're very welcome Patrick!
again an instructive video. thanks!
My pleasure!
Absolutely Fantastic set of videos thank you for sharing your incredible knowledge of this aircraft to make flightsim even more better it's so interesting listening to you explain how it all functions.
Many thanks Reece!
Thanks for a great tutorial. I especially liked the Constraints button which shows the appropriate flight levels in magenta on the nd. Without VNAV yet working, it was a real pain deciding what altitude to be at. Once again, thanks for taking the time to explain from a real pilot's perspective.
Awesome! I was really wondering about all those procedures right there. It can be a bit confusing to somebody that doesn't know the Airbus. I'm not a pilot either but iv'e been using Flight Simulator for 20 plus years.
These videos are not useful: They are a full tutorial on how to fly the A320. Congrats!!! Can't get enough of your videos!!!!! :)
Glad you like them Jon!
Having so much fun with your videos tonight !! Hope you weren't offended by me asking you to do a Dreamliner video I do understand that you are a professional A320 pilot. Regardless this is Great, I cannot afford to buy the necessary hardware and software to actually have MSFS so I fly vicariously through you. Thank you for being patient with me. Regards.
An excellent video, well planned and easy to follow verbal instructions.
Wonderful! After watching these videos, I feel like I pretty much have my A320 type rating. Now to find someone who will let me fly the real thing.
I just want to say THANK YOU for all these tutorials on the A320neo. Thank you for making my sim experience better. I recommend you install the development mod from the installer, it’s going to blow your mind how much it has improved. Can you please make a tutorial of a short flight using simbrief, all the MCDU inputs and using charts please? I’m still having trouble when to start descending from a flight.
no
First of all, I would like to thank you for these fantastic videos. I have already seen several videos and they are helping me a lot in running this complex machine.
Besides, at first I had to make an effort to understand you because of your rapid way of speaking, but right now I think I have improve a little bit.
Congratulations again y I hope to see more videos soon.
Thank you. Terrific tuition.
You're very welcome Steve!
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!
Apologies, it's to the right and ABOVE the parking brake.
Thank you for all these videos, I really hope we get a study level plane soon!
I hope so too! You are welcome for the video.
Easily the best person to go to when you want to learn how to drive the 'bus properly :) Will revisit this video once MSFS is finally downloaded because I am going from the 737NG to the 320. (Used to have a mate who flew the early Airbus planes and he swore they only got into the air due to the curvature of the Earth ;)) - many thanks for taking the time to produce these videos.
Glad to hear it, I hope you enjoy the Bus! Thanks for watching and your kind words.
Thanks for your explanations! I will apply this on all of my future flights!
Glad it was helpful!
Excellent explanation, thank you...
You are welcome!
A most deserved Thank You Captain for the time and effort you spend in these videos to give us this all this information to help make the flight simulator experience the best it can be.
Thank you. Just staring out really with FS2020. Very interesting tutorial.
Awesome! I just need a taxi tutorial now :)
Thanks Luka! It is on the list.
Thanks. although my mother lenguage is not english, your explanation is very clear and very detail.
I love watching your videos. Your tutorials are very informative. I would be grateful if you could do a video on decent, know when to decent, and set the aircraft up for landing. I have come from Boeing, and they do things a little differently. Thanks for taking the time to make these videos!!!!.
Brilliant tutorial!! Just what I needed. Thanks for doing this!!
If you listen carefully a kitty cat strays into the cockpit!!! 11:48 😸😹😽
Great tutorial as always. Thank you very much!
Glad you liked it Tomasz!
Thanks for these valuable insights. Very much appreciated.
Another excellent video! Thanks you!
Come here again for re-training after a years leaving mfs20 and coming back to fly again
My problem flying the neo is always how to keep it smooth while retracing flaps after taking off, and keeping the positive G low while leveling out and getting more airspeed after the initial climb.
Also 320 Sim on the master version of A32NX the Chrono button is working :)
Ah excellent, thanks!
That's a very cool way to show how to fly I like it the way you explained listen I have the Xbox I guess it doesn't weigh right to fly or to set up all the system how I have to do do you mind if I ask you thank you by the way
Thank you very much for your teaching and helpful videos. I was wondering if you can make a video about miss approach procedures on MSFS 2020. Do you have anything like this planned in the near future?
Awesome 👍🙏🏻
Thank you Lee! Cheers!
These are great thanks very much!
You're very welcome!
Thanks for these tutorials, so helpful!!
Thanks mate, you made some things clearer. Would love to see more of your content on how to do things in MFS20 as realistic as as pro pilots do, in the limits of what is possible with MFS20
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it and I will keep working on more videos!
Thanks, very informative video.
You're welcome!
Brilliant, i didn't know the take off speed was so low, i have messed up.
Awesome video, thanks for making it
thanks for the tips ive learnt alot have you tryed aerofly fs4 the airbus does all the things you say it even autolands with ap1 and ap2 activated
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 UA-cam channel I've ever felt is worth subscribing to.
thanks for the video! much appreciated as always :)
You are welcome! Thanks for the comment.
Hi 320 Sim Pilot, everytime I try to take off with the A320 in MSFS it keeps going slightly to the left... Is that normal and part of the realism of the game or is it a bug?
Thank you for the great videos so far.
Thank you for watching and commenting!
Hi, whenever I put on the autopilot the plane pitches turns away from the flight plan completely (a pattern I’ve noticed is that it goes directly north every time). Do you know what I’m doing wrong?
I heard your cat! it's annoyed! :P
Not sure if you've done this, but can you show takeoff with ATC radar vectors to the first waypoint using auto pilot and then continue along as filed? Your tutorials are the best!
graphics look amazing brilliant info i did not know that as you pull power back it put its to auto thrust great is there a link to the mod please
Glad you enjoyed it David! The mod can be found here: flybywiresim.com/a32nx
cheers sir
thankyou sir
Hi Captain thanks for sone lesson
What is the purpose of entering the Transition Altitude on the PERF page? I noticed you didn't do it but I'm curious if it's for reference only or if the plane's systems use it somehow. Great video!
Hi Michael, great question. The aircraft will flash the QNH if it is still set once you are above the transition altitude to remind you to set STD (1013). Normally for takeoff the transition altitude is loaded by the database into the FMGC so we don't have to adjust it. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!
Great tutorial. Thanks!
@320 Sim Pilot Awesome Video. Learned a lot today. I try to use the 320NX mod, but I got confused by the new checlist and terms in it. Would you do another "Checklist" video going on detail with the new options? Greetings from Germany.
Hi, thanks for watching and your kind words. I am planning to do a full setup tutorial once the mod is a bit more stable, so hopefully soon!
@@320SimPilot Thank you. I'm looking forward to it. :)
+1 like even just for the thumbnail :)
Thanks, glad you liked it, just a bit of fun!
I decided to do some aborted takeoffs and tests for my own curiosity in this specific sim and noticed some things that might be worth knowing for you guys. I am also using the FlyByWire mod that improves the A320, but I expect all these issues are default to the sim. A bit disappointing, hopefully improved upon to make it more worth calling a simulation..
- _The V1 speed seems to be entirely cosmetic, it gives a 6 knot split behind VR in all cases I have seen._ On short runways where the Airbus will only lift off right near the end V1 will still be 6 kts below VR and you can not safely abort anywhere near it. On long runways aborting right at V1 may stop you with more than half the runway remaining, but it will still give split from VR.
- _The flex temp you set in the FMGS has no effect on the numbers it gives, even if you update them._ Only the flap setting seems to modify those numbers. I don't know if that means it always assumes TOGA.. Some of my flex takeoffs have felt a bit sluggish to get off the ground.
- _Autobrake doesn't work at all for takeoff._ If you cut throttles in an aborted takeoff autobrake literally turns itself off quietly and no braking happens; very safe! If you try to turn it back on in that situation it will stay as you've selected but not actually brake, and no decel will be indicated. Works fine when landing though.
Only problem about landing is the left aileron dip.
@@RocketAnthem which is super annoying!!
Great video, very helpful and very well explained. Can you do one on landing as I am finding the controls very unresponsive close to the ground resulting in crashes most of the time. Don't seem to have this problem in GA aircraft.
another great vid. Not sure what Im doing wrong as the speed ticker just goes straight up to 250 300 and ive got to pull the flaps up almost immedietly.
Excellent video, I am new to MSFS and this video has been quite helpful with the A320 neo take off guidance. Just a question, you mention not for real world take off. How does the real world take off differ. Barring the feel of the aircraft, based on the setting in the simulator I would imagine a real world take off would be very similar in nature. Thanks
What is happening when my airbus starts flying to the right at all times? I can't seem to keep it on NAV at all.
@@m8nick8m66 Sorry for my english, it's not native for me. I had the same issue, the plane kept going slightly to the right not following the flight plan. The matter was with my gamepad! The sticks had a little microvibrations that made the plane turn slightly to the right and allowing not switching off the AP. Enabled deadzones on min 10% and everything became ok.
Thank you!
You're welcome!
I have a question, can you tell me why the plane is showing 1 FD - instead of 1 FD 2 in my case?
Great video, very informative as always !
I've been using A320NX for a while now but I don't know how to put that square on the PFD so you can see your joystick movement. How's it done ?
Thanks for this, very excellent detailed tutorial - much appreciated. But you (like me) are getting climb rates of about 6000ft per minute at some points using this method. Is there anything we can do to alleviate that? I've never been on an airbus that pitches up and down so wildly as this!
Hi thanks for all the videos, helped tremendously navigating and understanding autopilot. I keep encountering an issue where all my avionics go blank though after 1-2 hours flight and I have no idea why? Any ideas?
Thank you for another excellent and informative video! Question... do you ever go to TOGA or FLEX power and then release the brakes for takeoff? I think I have experienced that as a passenger on some occasions. Thanks again for your tutorials!
Thanks for watching Alvaro! No we don't do that whilst holding the brakes normally on the A320, it may happen on other aircraft types though!
Im a little confused.. First off, great vid this clarified all of my questions. I'm just confused about the mod. where do I get it and what exactly does it do?
Glad you liked the video! Mod can be found here: flybywiresim.com
Top class. Thank you
Very welcome Bill!
Thank you so much for these videos! Do you use the green F and S on landing also or is it strictly for takoff? Cause I notice I see it when landing also. Thank you!
Really Helpful tutorial!... However I am just wondering, how did you end up in taxiway? Usually it start on the runway ready for takeoff. Can you please share how to do that? I was looking for that option.
You have to select a parking spot at the starting airport instead of a runway in the sim.
Can you tell us roughly what sensitivity we should use for the flight controls.. Seem very twitchy to me. Love the videos
There is something I don't quite understand. I do everything you're showing in the video, and it works. I'm pretty much taking off every time without any issues. But then when I'm in autopilot nav, although the plane is following the flight plan as intended, it seems to always ignore the constraint altitude. In your video right after the take-off, the altitude number on your main screen goes from blue to purple (5000)... but mine never goes purple, it stays blue and I have to manually enter new altitudes during the entire flight. So I'm wondering if I'm missing anything. I use the flybywire mod for the plane.
what is proper technique for taking off in a strong crosswind? i find myself using rudder to stay on runway, once initiating Rotation, the plane tilts and when rudder is released jerks the plane around. How do you keep it somewhat smooth?
very interesting video thank you for sharing your knowledge :) for all: Is it possible to use a separate tiller in mfs?
Great video. Thank you. Quick question, how do I stop my Airbus A320, automatically pushing back, taxing to the the runway and taking off. Thank you if you are able to assist.
Very nice. I would like to see how to do a proper descent.
Noted!
@@320SimPilot thx
So, I don't need to worry about speed and heading settings ? Just leave them both as - - - ?
very informative thanks
Glad it was helpful!
Please do a video on SrS
