    And you said during cruise the temperature was fine?

    correct. it was a balmy 18c in the cockpit (my favorite temp). 

    How can the cabin temps be lower than the outside temps?

    A few of your temperature knobs are set almost all the way to the Cold setting.

    Yes, but which ones? Are they the pax ones? 
     

    In addition, “almost all the way to the left” is supposed to be like 17 or 18 degrees which is super pleasant 

  3. I'm cruising along at FL370 and everything is fine. Right after the TOD I look at the cabin and passenger temps and notice they're -56 degrees...

    What could have caused this to happen suddenly? Cabin pressure is fine. Packs are fine. Everything seems fine. 

    Any ideas?

    you need to create the "flightplan" folder, under "work". I don't know why this folder is missing.

    C:\User\[user]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft Flight Simulator\Packages\inibuilds-aircraft-a300-600\work\flightplan

    gotcha, thanks

  5. I saved a .fpl flight plan from LittleNavMap in the C:\Users\[user]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft Flight Simulator\Packages\inibuilds-aircraft-a300-600\work folder (attached) however when I type in the departure/destination airport codes in the FMS the route does not appear.

    what is the issue here? thanks

    Probably only with a third party add-on like GSX. Doesn't come natively with the A300.

    oh gotcha. bummer it doesn't come with ground units like strair. i think the cargo version does? maybe in a future update

    It says "Unable to find SAFE performance data"

    This is based on your weight, runway length, altitude and temperature.  It will not present you with an unsafe option.  Kick some fatties or gold off the plane and try again.  Try another flaps option.  

    still not following. this is an over 8000' runway, I'm only 3/4 full of passengers, and it's a relatively cool and pleasant day outside. what's unsafe about this?

  8. two quick questions:

    1) how can you have multiple passenger stairs for entry? (front and back)

    2) can you have the jetway connect to the second door instead of the first so passengers don't walk through the first class cabin?

    thanks!

    So what seemed to be the issue then? With the setting on fast, my A300 aligns itself within 3ish minutes.

    Did you by chance change the setting after starting the alignment? Cause in that case it will still take the previous selected value into consideration.

    I'm not 100% what both the issue and the fix seemed to be. I did try to change the alignment time mid-alignment but as you mentioned it didn't react to that. I think a combination of flipping IRS switches multiple times, not pressing the align button on the fms in a timely manner, and changing the align time on the efb. One or more of these ended up fixing it after some time. I'm sure it was user error. I'll try a fresh flight again soon and see if I can get it to work normally.

    I see in your latest photo, the FMC is also prompting you to select the ALIGN IRS prompt.  

    i noticed that as well and clicked that, however nothing happened. still no gps signal and pitch trims won't stay flipped

  11. 10 minutes ago, ual763 said:

    Well, your ECAM does not say IRS IN ALIGN, are you sure you actually hit the ALIGN IRS prompt in the CDU?

    maybe it's not an alignment issue. something weird is going on as you can see primary gps lost is on there. also when i flip the "Pitch Trim" switches they flip back after a couple seconds. also none of the AP numbers appear. i have the APU running and before that I had ground power. didn't make a difference which one.

    it's like part of the plane isn't getting power. anything you can think of that could cause this?

  12. I have IRS align set to FAST on the EFB. However it's been over 5 minutes and and the PFD and MFD still say not aligned. i've attached images for reference. any help?

  13. I saw in another thread that the location to place flight plans is C:\Users\[user]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft Flight Simulator\Packages\inibuilds-aircraft-a300-600\work\flightplans

     

    and the correct suffix is .fpl like LFKJLFLB.fpl. is this correct?

    and then once you save the flight plan there, how do you load it into the FMS? thanks

    I have done a fairly detailed search.  It does not look like the PAX version came with airstairs (those the aircraft carried).  It would break my immersion if inibuilds added stairs to a plane that did not have them in real life. 

    We’re talking about requesting external stairs, not internal ones like the 737 has. Just regular air stairs for the Pax to enjoy at smaller airports.

    Did you try with GSX (if you have it) ?

    don't have GSX unfortunately. i saw the A300 came with external stuff so assumed it would have stairs as well

  16. 3 minutes ago, ual763 said:

    Hmmm, I have a stair option on mine in top right of this menu.  The only thing I can think of is that maybe the pax version doesn’t have this and that it is only an option in the freighter as that is what I was flying.  
     

    Are you able to call the default MSFS stairs?

     

    Just now, Alexair said:

    Yes, it is only for the freighter version indeed...

    ah, thats a bummer. as now none of my pax can board the plane and the crew is stuck inside.

    There is an option for left or right stairs in the EFB under the ground connections tab

    man, i must be totally missing it. where on the EFB?
