Gentlemen A330 PFD indication is not correct on the ground before take off. FD bars should not be displayed before the thrust is set for take off, FD bar come in view when the thrust is set to FLEX or TOGA.

After having flown a few sectors now with the 319 on P3Dv4.5, I am starting to notice issues with the ability of the aircraft to maintain a good level of accuracy in the descent profile. As you know, there are usually a few altitude/level constraints during the descent and on a STAR. I find the aircraft does not always meet those constraints very well. Sometimes it is up to 500 feet too high crossing a waypoint with an active "at or below" constraint. On other occasions, although the beginning of the descent goes well and the aircraft seems to be on profile (green ball centered), then all of a sudden, the green ball goes up and the aircraft almost levels off wit…

Hi, I just discovered that the plane has suddenly keep going in circles with the Nav mode on during mid-flight. I have entered all the information needed in INTL B and the flight has progressed normally until on climbing to cruising altitude. The normal navigation could not be restored even tring to use DIR function. This issue has happened in this update and all previous version, but not very frequently. I have attached the log file as well as other information. AB_ND_GDI.log LoadSheetA320.txt ECAM_Systems.log LSZHLPPR01.fpl

Hey! I know it is a basic question, but I can not find the answer in the documentation. (Or I'm not Patient enough...) So I made a flight with A320 to EPWA, Rwy 33. I proceed direct to the most distant waypoint of the final approach line (WA534). As I approach the WPT, I changed to HDG mode. Earlier, I set the ILS freq and CRS to the FMC, so the display shows the ILS data of the runway. I pushed the LOC button of the Autopilot. As the localizer start moving, the plane did nothing. Later, I realised, that not the "LOC" was armed after these, but "NAV APP" on the PFD, below the HDG mode. So my question: How can I c…

Greetings! I have been using the Aerosoft Airbus X, but recently got P3D v4 and switched over to the Aerosoft Bus Professional. In the Aerosoft Airbus X, I was able to use this website Flight Planner - Flight Plan Database that could make a flight plan for you in seconds, then you just place it into the flightplans folder and start your flight. However, for the aerosoft pro, I had to use simBrief because the aerosoft pro used a flight plan format different from the Airbus X. Ever since then, I could not figure out how to insert climb/decent speeds into the flight planner, like how Flight Planner - Flight Plan Database let me do. Can someone please help me?

Made a flight today in the Aerosoft Airbus A320 Professional where VOR NEW(Castle) Freq. 114.25 was on the route, flew right above it..... The strange thing is that when I enter NEW at the NAV/Radio in the FMC of the Airbus A320 Professional, it neatly shows NEW 114.25. But if I enter 114.25 as the frequency, it comes with MEL 114.25 The NAV display does show the DMA up to NEW 114.25 but not the Radial when I fly an exact course… Everything is Up to Date, Prepar3D v5.2, The Aerosoft Airbuses are Up to Date and the NaviGraph AIRAC Cycle is 2110 Maybe a Bug…? This is what Navigraph replied to me: Hi…, …

I am having an issue on flights longer than 5 hours. The AP disconnects without any input from me, just random. I do overnight flights of up to 13hrs and this has happened the past 4 of 5 flights. Last night I woke up 7 hours into the flight and it was basically a jet ski skipping across the black sea. Is there anything I need to check or do. Cant fly the 333 on pond crossings with this issue. Thank you Randy

I am unable to add the airport to the Aerosoft FMC. The format shows the lat and long as 0000.00/0000.00 but when I try to add it in that format, it says "Bad Format." Am I missing something? Thanks.

I planned a flight KLAX-MMMX with simbrief. The Star suggested is DARA1A. However, that is missing in the Airbus Database, where only DATUL STARS are listed. I use Navigraph data and update regularily. PMDG Data is showing the STARs needed, no prob. Can anybody suggest a solution?

Hi Is there a way of deleting the original AIRAC Cycle 1809 in the MCDU so only the latest Navigraph AIRAC Cycle 2106 is shown, therefor you do not have to change it every time the P3D ver 5.2 is loaded. Thanks in advance. J

Since the 1.0.1.0 update, this issue (picture attached) has occurred during phases with vertical profile (climb, step climb, descent). The route (sometimes the waypoints) would disappear during the entire changing level duration, and return after level flight has resumed. The aircraft tracked the route normally throughout the entire flight. Other display modes also returned the same issue. Using DIR function with Abeam points would cause pseudo waypoints to appear on the ND unconnected. Route was checked and verified during the planning stage (with plan page). Route info (Unrealistic route): LFBO/VTBS (5418NM): FIST5Q FISTO DCT ESISI DCT ADATU DCT ROA DCT…

Hi, I'm just wondering if there is any description of the format for the SID/STARs, I kinda figured out the meaning of some of the values, but some other values are just confusing. I was trying to make one for an airport that has been closed for years, and couldn't find any navdata of it anywhere. Thanks

Hello everypne. I was flying from Shanghai ZSPD to Hamburg EDDH, and for some reason I should go to sleep, my settings allow Airbus to set simulator on pause at top of descent. So, I woke up and turned on my monitor, than find out A330 on ground aolmost died with no power. I have question, does I must set something else in MCDU for correct pausing? To prevent some questions: Yes, I have option pause at T/D in turned ON and no, there is no flight plan discontity beetwen points and T/D Oh, sorry wrong place, move it to the right topic

I have tried using LINDA and FSUIPC to program a button for the Master Caution light to be extinguished when I release the AP. In both LINDA and FSUIPC I have to press my button twice to get it to reset. When I use my mouse I only have to click it once. I've never had this problem until recent updates. I can't remember which update it was when it started not working correctly. I hope this is the proper place to post this as it relates to AP functions.

I have just reinstalled the above in a general reinstallation of P3Dv4.5. I thought I checked all the right boxes and did a specific Navigraph update. I also checked that the latest data was in the A3XX/Navigraph folder. The aircraft MCDU however shows no SID or STAR options only runway and VIA options for the arrival airport. I feel sure that there must be a box I haven't checked somewhere but simply can't find it. I did check the Navigraph option in the Configurator I found from the Start Menu options but that hasn't helped. Any thoughts gratefully received! Tony

After entering the takeoff speeds into the MCDU manually, I get the message of "T.O. Speeds too low" when pressing the T.O. config button (see image). I can still take off successfully with the manual speeds, however the t.o. config is never ticked off on the checklists (I have to skip this item each time on the automatic checklist). If I use the speeds calculated by the bus on the perf page this does not happen, however as this does not take into account the takeoff shift for intersection departures I choose to input the speeds manually for intersection departures. I have tried to search around to see if this problem already exists but havent found anything,…

There's a lot I don't know about SIDS/STARTS/APPROACHES, but I am learning. On a flight LIML-EHAM (VATSIM RFE event), I was told to "fly the ARTIP1X transition for ILS approach RWY 36R". I'd never heard exactly that type of instruction previously. I found the approach in Navigraph, but couldn't find it in the MCDU. After some research... This is the approach (Navigraph labels this RNAV ILS RWY 36R). In the upper right corner of the plan view is the notation ARTIP 1X Transition. To load this into your flight plan (assuming EHAM is your destination), select destination as usual, the click ARRIVAL, then scroll until you see IL…
