In Aerosoft EDDF there is an GSX ini-file included whith many wrong parking- and stop-positions defined. Especially for the "HEAVY" gates with two jetways (like A20 - where the outer one is animated). In the original airport bgl-file the parking resp. stop position is defined correctly for "heavy" planes so that the outer jetway connects to the door 2 left, which is common in real life in case there is only one jetway (reason: Economy Class passengers should not walk entering or leaving the plane via the Business Class). If I delete the two lines this_parking_pos = and parkingsystem_stopposition = in the "EDDF-Aerosoft.ini" file for gate A20 then the plane is parked / loaded correctly as you can see in the attached picture and the jetway attaches to door 2 left. If I use the original ini-file (delivered with the software) then the planes parks not at the defined position according to the markings on the ground (but somewhere else and the jetway will be attached to door1 left).

There is at the moment another easier way to solve the conflicts between the two airports: To exclude the Asobo Standard EDDF Airport from streaming / downloading = Create a new empty folder in your Community folder called "asobo-airport-eddf-frankfurt". Regards, Rolf

Mathijs, as described on page 2 of the manual there are ofcourse minor differences between the manual and the actual version. The videos in the manual are to demonstrate the functionality of the procedure- and checklists (works exactly as described) and not the planes flying behaviour. If there is once a final version of the plane, I might adjust the total manual accordingly.

1. There is no impact on the planes behaviour iy you use different checklists and procedures. 2. If you how to program in XML and as long as you follow MSFS SDK rules you can write/use your own checklist .

Just to state that the plane is "garbage" and talking about the "mess of a launch" is very very general. Could you please be more specific or are you just repaeting what you read somewhere. Very soon there will be an update (and more to come). That you do not know or are not informed about it does not mean the developers said goodbye........

Hi Michael, setting the AP and ATHR at that time is just an option. In RL and in case of CAT I the AP is normally set OFF at that time so that the pilot has time to adjust and to control the plane. In my case I just confirmed the CL option e.g. both were left on. I manually set the AP to OFF on my joystick a little bit later e.g. just before MINIMUM...... (to make a better landing!) Regards, Rolf

Please have a look into the video on Youtube (link was part of my original statement) or look into the manual from section 18 (link was also part of my original statement) and the videos included for the various flight phases.....

Hi BR, I do not understand what you are meaning with ILS-Landing behaviour. Your AP automatically shuts OFF without any manual interference? This is not normal because it should stay ON (p.e. in case of a CATIII Landing) until touchdown. Maybe you should look into your keybindings because maybe the AP OFF is connected with some key you are using during landing. The problem with "breaking" is known and will be solved with the next update. Regards, Rolf

There are many things mentioned in this thread which I think require some clarification: The content / missing features of this plane were clearly stated in the manual on page 2 and which was available before release please see: https://a330ceo-interactive-manual.aerosoft.com/ You can fly from A to B using all RL-procedures with the Ingame MSFS Checklist and without any problems. If you do not believe it have a look into the manual for the various flight phases and its videos or What "influencers" state in their videos is not allways correct. A good example is one stating that the SimBrief flightplan cannot be loaded into the MCDU and this is not correct. You can directly import your SimBrief flightplan into the MCDU using INIT REQUEST and even can load "old" ones additionally stating the Flight Number. Ofcourse there are still some minor bugs on which the team is working and soon there will be an update. Please consider all this when making a statement on the Aerosoft A330ceo for MSFS. Regards, Rolf

This will be changed in one of the next updates. The Link to the manual is https://a330ceo-interactive-manual.aerosoft.com/

View File AS Airbus P3D v5.2 HF1 EA Update If in P3D v5.2 HF1 "Enhanced Atmospherics" (EA) is enabled, the liveries of all A318, A319, A320 and A321 models as well as the cockpits in all models (incl. A330) are displayed too dark and it seems that this version/ feature puts a brown haze over all the liveries and cockpits. Installing this update solves that problem and the original colors are displayed again. Users not using EA should not install this update because then their liveries and cockpits would appear too bright. For more information on this update please read the attached file.

Ok you were right - using the slew mode I corrected the position at the gate A23 EDDF and then AES started the gate procedure and I got the correct AES menu. I checked other gates at "Mega Airport Frankfurt - last update installed" as well as "Tampa Vienna Airport" and at some gates the position was correct and at others it was not the case. So what I do not understand is even that all products are from Aerosoft (AES, EDDF and LOWW) they are not working smoothly together. So I will have to make a note in our manual that this is sometimes the case and how to correct it = SLEW MODE (Key Y). Rolf

Oliver, but how do I park the aircraft by following the Marshaller/Dockingsystem when I start a flight (you are right - currently I use "Go to ....."). In your manual you are starting also with "Landing - Followme-Car" but normally I do start my flights not with a landing ..... The procedure is quite important to me because I am working with Steffen Froemter on a plugin for the new Airbus X Extended and we have to align the procedures resp. describe those very clearly in our manual. Thanks, Rolf

Hi, I just downloaded / installed AES 2.21. When I start FSX I select the Airbus X at LOWW (Tampa-Version) and a special parking position. Then I set the Airbus X to "Dark & Cold". When I now start AES (Crtl + Shift + W) the window opens "Follow-me car" e.g. to select a parking space etc. This means AES does not detect that I am already at a gate and the engines are dead. The same happens with other fully installed airports like Mega-Airport Frankfurt EDDF. What do I have to do so that the AES window opens with "Beginn boarding"? Thanks, Rolf
