MCDU (Left side)

All discussions and questions about the MCDU.

    Hello, when I insert in the Airbus X (FSX) a flight plan with more than 50 FIXes, the last ones must be entered manually because it does not read them. Do you know a remedy? Thank you.

    Hello everyone, Quite newbie question: How is the wind considered and entered during the MCDU preparation? I can't seem to figure it out when take off perfs are calculated, and I don't remember seeing this parameter in the step by step manual. Thanks !

    I'm trying to enter flight plan from LOWI to LFMN following "Step-By-Step Tutorial". I do exactly as it is supposed in this tutorial, but order and altitudes in which SID and STAR waypoints arrange turns out to be incorrect. As you can see: on the 2nd screenshot SPD LIMIT (10000ft) sits before OEJ07 (6700ft) on the 5th screenshot ENOBA (FL265) sits before T/D (FL310) I suppose altitudes must raise through the sequence of waypoints up to CRZ LVL and then decrease down to landing RWY threshold elevation. Am I mistaken? I don't use additional Nav Data utilities/base. Just FSX built-in Nav Data Base 1511.

    Hi, I followed the step by step guide. It says that Flex temperature is calculated automatically as all required values are inserted. The automatic calculation happens with A320, but not with A321. Why? Thanks. I have A320/321 v1.31 sp3

    Attempting to fly the A321. Using the latest Airac trying to enter the Wichita VOR "ICT" into the left MCDU. The common fixes show up with three that are ICT. I attempt to select the correct one, but when it cycles back to the FLT PLN page, it does not show up. I even tried a wrong ICT VOR and it still does not work. Every other fix/vor I have tried will work.

  6. I fly the Airbus A320/21 on the P3D_v4 sim. Today, the MCDU is no longer recognizing the current AIRAC data, therefore not loading my SimBrief flight plans. I've shut everything down, rebooted, etc., etc., but no joy. Is there a fix for this? Thanks!

    Hello, I'm flying A320 from Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport to San Francisco International airport by using the route below which is generated by Skyvector, KPHX KEENS2 HRRBR CURIV J212 DECAS PMD J6 AVE MAKRS SERFR SERFR3 KSFO However, I'm not able to insert the PMD waypoint after DECAS, the system finds duplicated 'PMD', but no matter what I choose, nothing will be inserted into the CDU. I don't have this problem with PMDG aircraft. Both databases were updated by Navigraph. Could you take a look to see if you can replicate the same? Regards, Daniel Li

    Hello Is there a way to retrieve the ATIS of the destination Airport via the MCDU? I found the option "ATIS" in a page, but when I select it, it returns the Weather of the airport (which is also useful :-)) Thanks

  10. I know how to generate a flight plan. I know where to save it on my computer as a company route. I know how to enter the flight plan to the left hand MCDU. My question is there a way to print or export the actual flight plan that the MCDU thinks it has. Example This is what I enter to the left MCDU. In the INIT page FROM / TO (Enter EGGD/LEAL) In the CO RTE my save flight plan appears – EGGDLEAL01. I enter this and all is OK This is the original flight plan that was generated with SimBrief Route EXMO1X EXMOR UN864 BHD UN26 KORER UM616 USODA UM184 CNA UN863 AGN UN860 VLC VLC2L This is the contents of the EGGDLEAL.flp fi…

    I have recently purchased Airbus A319/320/321 for FSX:SE via Steam, (Windows 7 Ultimate), and the sim is running very well apart from one issue. On following a very good tutorial by MrCobolman via Youtube, I am finding that the Innsbruck to Nice flightplan does not load into the left MCDU and give me the company route option as per the video tutorial. Following the step by step manual vol 6 results in the same thing. Instead I just get the "None" message. Any suggestions as to what I am doing wrong will be warmly welcomed.

    How can I update the AIRAC cycle to 1803? I can see the current one I have for the Airbus A320/A321 for FSX:SE package is the 1511 (FSX>aerosoft>Airbus_Fallback>NavDataPro>cycle_info) Thanks.

  13. Hello. I haven't been able to plan flights because using the flight plans that onlineflightplanner.org gives me, I always receive either a "AWY/WPT MISMATCH" error or a "NOT ALLOWED" message. For example, I recently tried to do a flight from EKCH to LPPT, using a flight plan from the website, but when I try to insert the VAVIX waypoint, it gives me a "NOT ALLOWED" message. I will leave the full flight plan below. I don't know what to do, only a few flight plans can be inserted into the airplane flawlessly. I imagine this is because something is outdated? I'm using AIRAC cycle 1905. What am I doing wrong? Any help is appreciated. Flight plan EKCH-LPPT: EKCH (0…

    Hi all, I just flow from EGPH to EGLL the week before on IVAO's event. When I was in final approach and holding at LAM, the ATC told me to swap to Runway 27R instead of Runway 27L for my arrival. But as I was going to change the Arrival Runway and enter the initial approach fix into my MCDU, the whole thing stuck, just like the one in the photos. I can do nothing on the MCDU since it stuck at that page and I cannot activate the Approach. It still stuck at DES mode after I touched down and shut down my engine. I still not able to figure it out what was happening. Do anyone have any solution or idea of what was going on? I am us…

    Since updating to 1.2.3.1 I have had the problem three times with Eurowing A 320. Printing was ok first. Then suddenly after switching the printbutton either at pedestal or in ATCCOM MCDU freezes. No button works anymore. Does anyone else realize that? If not I think, I should do a new installation. Thanks for your answers!

    I am completely unable to load or save flight plans in my new A319. I have reading Vol6-StepbyStep as suggested here I've tried saving several flight plans (tried different providers of fpl too) to [Documents]\Aerosoft\Airbus\FlightPlans For example I saved EBBRLOWI01.flp there and in the MCDU type EBBR/LOWI in FROM/TO but it says NONE. I tried without 01 too, nothing works. I tried recreating the Flight plans folder in C:\Users\[NAME]\Documents (my real docs folder I moved to F:\ drive) but this doesn't work either. Could this be a bug when the documents folder is moved it all breaks, surely not? Is there a way to check what folder the…
