Noticed with the EFB loading via simbrief it start first with full loading and then counts down the fuel load and ZFW and other values... is this by design? just wondering...

I am unable to perform time acceleration using R and + after upgrading to version 103, it still maintaining the original speed. What is the reason for this and how can I solve it? In previous versions, time acceleration was possible. I need to use time acceleration during long-distance flights. Thank you.

However, the only problem I'm facing is that ProAtc/SR is not communicating. I can hear ATIS, but tuning to Clearance I get nothing. Not sure if this is an Ini problem or ProAtc, but this has not happened with the A310. Any thoughts? By the way, beautiful aircraft and no other issues thus far. Great work Ini Team. Troy

As the title says. I tried cycling the pumps, the yellow servo control and the affected and the affected pitch feel and spoilers. I tried with all combinations of PTU ON. I have tried shutting down the engine and servicing both the hydraulics and engine 2. After start, exactly the same.

At the moment the knob immediately below the AP panel is dimming both the windows on the AP panel for speed, altitude, heading etc., and the integral lights on that same panel. So there currently is no way to turn off the integral lights without turning the windows off and therefore not being able to see what is selected. Is there another knob that should be dimming the AP panel integral lights? I notice the light controls knob on the pedestal has one dial for PED & PNL, and one dial for OVHD, is it possible this knob should also be dimming the AP panel and this is what the PNL stands for, whereas at the moment it is only dimming the pedestal? …

Hey, as I am doing some cargo operations in Asia I am looking for a metric altimeter gauge or knob. I even dont know if UPS A300s delivered with that option... But is there someone a possiblity to switch between feet and meters in the inibuild A300? all the best alex

I'm getting no RA callouts at all. I can get a sink rate callout, but I absolutely never get any 50, 40, 30, 20, 10, etc.... (no RA callouts whatsoever). Any ideas?

It seems these are still hit and miss on the MCDU - on my first flight I noticed they were on the flight plan page, but on a later flight they were not, even though it was the same route. Seems strange, since I was descending from FL30 to a waypoint with altitude and speed restrictions.

This morning I use the weight and balance page and I realized that a new feature was added. So I did the update from simbrief and hit apply loads to aircraft. A new circular red arrow appeared in the right corner . I click on it and the load fuel now appeared like before to get instant fuelling. So at that point the number for TOW, ZFW, MACGW% should not change anymore, the aircraft is supposedly loaded. This morning I notice that those numbers were increasing, even after 15 minutes. It was like the loading process was not terminated and that weight was added to the payload. I did check if the proper amount of fuel was loaded and yes it was. I didn't use GSX …

Firstly, I apologize for re-opening this topic, but the initial thread got closed with my claim dismissed without leaving me the opportunity to clarify so, here we are. Initial post: What I would like to add following Nico's feedback: 1/ Regarding initial post My report concerns in-flight/hi power settings behavior (climb/cruise), I agree that on ground the impact is visible. See below screeshots, notice how the N1/N2/EGT... remain identical. 2/ Regarding N1 effect on ground: - I need to check more papers on the CF6 version - but on the PW, you have a modulating idle concept where the idle setting increases to match…

Had a ~90-minute flight yesterday where we consumed a few quarts of fuel on each engine, and the levels were showing about 98% Today, when I loaded up the plane each oil tank was topped off back to the default capacity while the EFB still showed them at the ~98% or so level.

I have a strange issue going on, as soon as I take off and turn on auto pilot, The plane does a barrel roll and just fall out the sky. This issue started happening after the update. Not sure what's causing this??

Hello. When you enter a waypoint/airport on the PROGRESS page of the left MCDU (so that it shows beaering and distance), the right MCDU shows the same entry. I am not sure if this is the correct behaviour. Maybe different entries can be made on each MCDU or they are synced. Anyway - if you enter another waypoint/airport on the right MCDU it still shows the entry of the left MCDU while bearing and distance change to the new entry. The behavior seems to be a bit bugged there. Please check the attached image to prove my statement. Both MCDU show the waypoint IMPED. Bearing and distance are different. I tried to enter OMDB30L on the right MCDU. It still s…

It would appear the aircraft is generous when it comes to "cross at" alt constraints: it tends to reach them early and so levels off way ahead of them, or in other words, descends too fast and achieves the constraint altitude too soon, resulting in a level-off.

Hi, Before my last flight, I calibrated my Honeycomb throttles using the EFB system. This was with the aircraft at the gate, using ground power to power the aircraft, which was a FedEx cargo aircraft. After I did that, the throttles moved by themselves to 100% despite the levers being in the idle position. I tried re-calibrating them but nothing worked. In the end I used a different Honeycomb profile and everything went back to normal once I had recalibrated the throttles (heart in mouth time). Any ideas why the above incident occurred? Otherwise, loving the aircraft. Best regards, Peter Keenan

I just installed 1.0.3 by uninstalling the previous version 1.0.2 and installing 1.0.3 fresh via the IniManager. I am using the FedEx freighter N962FE Trying to enter the following FP: KPHX (07L) KEENS2.HRRBR CURIV J212 DECAS PMD GMN RGOOD SKIZM2 KOAK No problem entering the departure runway, SID and HRRBR transition, and the first enroute waypoint CURIV. However when I try to do a lateral revision from CURIV, I enter J212/DECAS at the VIA/GOTO prompt, the FMS displays the message “PLEASE WAIT” on the scratchpad and the FMS CDU is completely unresponsive from then on. I completely exited MSFS, restarted, reloaded the aircraft and tried again with…

As soon as I'll set the DH, the speed display goes out, is this an existing bug or the normal behavior. And why should the display go out? In contrast to the FPA setting, the speed display remains the same. By the way, what is the FPA for, is there a description?

I have been trying for a while to fly the new a300 for msfs, but the Nav mode is not following the flightplan. I have no gaps in the flight plan neither do i have any information missing in the mcdu. Freighter and Passenger variants wont follow the route, instead flying straight ahead after take off. Profile does what its supposed to but the speed wont enter manage mode. I have tried a300 in xplane 12 which seems to follow the route fine, but i have since moved on to msfs due to other issues with xplane. The a310 for msfs works perfectly as it should and follows my flightplan. I would understand if its a bug but i have seen no other forum posts or youtube videos having an…

Hello, It is impossible to take off properly. The plane always goes to the left. I tried all the configuration options and always the same problem. The fact is that now I can do the taxi, the wheels move but when the takeoff power is there I go to the left. Only once it worked fine with the version 1.03. I have not rudder pedals and use my joystick rotation. TCA thrustmaster equipment. Here a pic taking off over the terminal. Look the wheels

With latest update v.1.0.3, throttles goes to idle seconds after T/O (lift off). Using Honeycomb Bravo Throttle Quardrant. All worked fine with v.1.0.2.

Used to be able to set speeds (such as if ATC requires faster/slower cruise) using the TACT MODE page. Seems to work in climb mode, can't set it in cruise since update

Checked this in several flights, the TOD mark on ND disagrees with actual VNAV path, actually the mark TOD is later than the actual, you are 2500+ ft higher if you follow it.

Since update v1.0.2 I have the issue where I am not able to steer the aircraft on the ground with the rudder pedals. There should be a 6 degree authority of nosewheel steering when using the rudders on the ground. See the video when using the rudder on the ground the aircraft moves slightly to the left or right but stays in it´s tracks. Before v1.0.2 everything worked as it should. This makes it very difficult to make small corrections on the taxiway and at low speeds on takeoff and landing. a300-rudder.mp4

when manually selecting a VOR on the PROG page, it reverts back to auto selection after a couple of minutes. I can not verify if the system is designed to do so (which would not make any sense), thus i suspect this to be a bug.

In v1.03, the orange Maximum N1 marking moves with the THR LIMIT pointer, rather than being fixed where it should be. Please see attached photos for reference.
