Resume a flight: save and reload panel state and MCDU data
Hi @riccardo74 Thanks for your suggestion, but it is unlikely until MSFS introduces a better system for doing so natively with the sim's save function as the A320Neo V2 is a Microsoft Product. So best you could do is re-spawn mid air, and use one of the panel states, or re-import your flightplan data via Simbrief. Thanks!

The EFB ground page toggle GPU and toggle chocks buttons don't really work.
Hi, are you on PC or Xbox? There is no such pre-requisite for accessing ground services. In fact all of my flying I do without setting up anything on the world map, or importing any plans on the world map page. If you'er on PC, please try with an empty community folder to rule out any conflict with another add-on. Simply rename your existing community folder temporarily to "_Community". Run your testing, and when done, close the sim and delete the new empty community folder. Then rename the old one back to "Community" to restore all your addons as they were. The EFB Pushback is just using MSFS pushback commands on the backend. So the TOGGLE PUSHBACK button just sends the "REQUEST PUSHBACK" command which is normally used to spawn a tug, however owing to a bug in MSFS, this does not happen reliably, so sometimes it may appear as if nothing is happening. As you have noted, the AFT, LEFT, RIGHT and PUSH buttons actually control the pushback, which will work regardless of the tug spawning or not. This is the intended behaviour of the EFB pushback. Thanks!

Systems and displays freezing
Can't give an ETA I'm afraid, but it shouldn't be too long now, it is under another (hopefully final) testing round with beta testers. Thanks!

How to remove Manual/Discontinuity entries in flight plan
Sorry you're having such issues. Countless other users/testers have spent hours with this plane already, since SU15beta till date without any such AP issues, barring misconfigured sim settings. So please check if all the AI assists are disabled (Assistance Options > Piloting) as they are known to cause issues with AP. Also ensure there's no active control input (aileron/elevator/rudder) being given that would cause the AP to not engage. Not to say the plane is perfect - there's certainly room for improvement but before public release there's many hours of testing put behind this plane already by both internal MS/Asobo and iniBuilds testers to ensure proper usability on PC and Xbox. Thanks!

X-Box BS after install
Hi @TurboDonkey I'm afraid I don't understand. Can you please elaborate what is the "BS Issue" you're having? Thanks!

How to remove Manual/Discontinuity entries in flight plan
Could you record a short video clip / screenshots showing your PFD/ND and FCU prior to intercept and then right after where it hasn't captured it? Could take a look to understand better what may be wrong. In general though, you don't need to do anything on the MCDU other than fill in DEST DATA, and verify the correct frequencies on the RADNAV page. Prior to intercept, enable LS on your glareshield, and arm APPR on your FCU. You must be established on the LOC already, before GS can be intercepted, and also you must intercept the GS from below it, else it won't capture. Thanks!

XBOX - A320Neo V2 issues
Hmm, you sure you do not have some kind of failures enabled on the World Map? Also ensure that all the AI Assists are disabled (Options > Assistance Options > Piloting). The A320neo V2 does not have any maintenance mode, so that shouldn't happen on its own. If its happening every flight after the above, please close the sim and clear the contents of this folder as that will force the WASM to re-compile on next launch: Steam Version: %APPDATA%\Microsoft Flight Simulator\Packages\microsoft-aircraft-a320neo MS Store Version: %LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\Packages\microsoft-aircraft-a320neo Lastly, if that also doesn't resolve the issue, then try with an empty community folder, to rule out any addon conflict. Thanks!

How to remove Manual/Discontinuity entries in flight plan
That is not the case normally. Please try with an empty community folder, to rule out conflict with some other addon. You can just rename the existing community folder to "_Community", then launch the sim to test. After you're done testing, close the sim, delete the new empty community folder and rename the old one back to "Community". That is the quick way to test without having to re-install any addons. If it works properly with an empty community folder, then some addon is causing issues. You may have to do some trial-and-error testing to figure out which one. Outdated community liveries (for older SU14 version of A320Neo V2) and outdated versions of Horizon Simulations 787 are known to have caused issues for other users. Also I tested again on my system and was able to successfully delete it the first time, without issues: 2024-07-10 18-07-47(1).mp4 Thanks!

Aircraft stuck in place after landing
Hi @Bald kelp There is no such issue on the plane currently, nor been reported by anyone else before. After landing, you need to tap on your brakes to disabled the AUTOBRAKE. Please confirm you have disabled all AI Assists (Options > Assistance Options > Piloting). Also ensure you do not have any conflicting keybinds for parking brake/brake that may be causing issues. Additionally, ensure the chocks are not enabled from the EFB. If you are still having issues, please share a short video clip/screenshot of when you have the problem showing your entire cockpit (Overhead, Front Panel, Center Pedestal) Thanks!

Speed and Heading button: push and pull not possible.
Hi @rem31, English only please on the forums here. You simple hover your cursor over the SPEED SELECTOR or HDG SELECTOR knob, and press A button to interact with it. Then follow the on-screen instructions to adjust, and finally press B to quit. Also as mentioned above, you must have filled in the require information on the MCDU for MANAGED mode to work. Otherwise the AP will only work in SELECTED mode. Thanks!

Glide Slope does not work at Canadian airports
Hi @Trane For your example of Runway29 at CYYC, if you look at the approach plate you'll note that ILS (IAQ 110.9) does not have any DME associated with it. This is why you see 0.0 on your PFD. Instead the approach uses a separate source for DME (IGY 110.55), and you can see that mentioned as the distance read-out for all the corresponding waypoints as well. So in this scenario, you'd tune the RADNAV page on the MCDU as follows: - IAQ/110.90 in the ILS/FREQ section - IGY/110.55 (enter it as /110.55) in either VOR1/VOR2 section on the top (as you prefer) Once you see that, enable VOR on the Glareshield and you will use that DME on the bottom left/right of your ND instead. I am not noticing this issue, just tested at CYYC RWY 29. Please ensure your RADNAV page is setup properly, that you arm APPR and intercept the glide from below the glideslope (it won't capture if you're already above it). Are you using Default or Navigraph Navdata? Also are you using any sceneries for the airports where you notice this issue? Also ensure your sceneries are up to date and do not have any add-on affecting all the airports, that may be causing conflicts. Thanks!

People walking on terminal roof
Hi @danlee957 Try again with the latest update. In case you see this again, please share a screenshot of it, along with where it happened (which gate number/Terminal) Thanks!

No passengers in the terminal building
Noted. Thanks for the suggestion.

MCDU does not load flight plan nor datalink
Hi, Are you using any addons like FSRealistic? That is known to cause issues for manual entry sometimes, the only fix being to exit to main menu and restart the flight. If you are having this issue on every flight, then please try with an empty community folder: rename your existing one to '_Community' whilst testing. When finished testing, delete the new 'Community' folder and rename your old one back to 'Community' If you do not have this issue with an empty community folder, then it is likely some addon that is causing conflict. Most likely culprits are outdated liveries or outdated version of Horizon Simulations 787 addon. Thanks!

How to remove Manual/Discontinuity entries in flight plan
Hi @BillM Are you using Navigraph or default navdata? Also can you specify which Airport + Runway + SID/STAR/APPROACH combination you had problems with? It is the correct behaviour to receive a NOT ALLOWED warning when trying to remove a F=PLN DISCONTUNUITY which has MANUAL entry above it. So you need to erase the MANUAL entry first . Once you have CLR on your scratchpad, clicking the L LSK next to the MANUAL waypoint should get rid of it. I'm not noticing any such issues on my end. Below is a video of KJFK DEEZZ5 SID out of RWY 04R with Navigraph Navdata: 2024-07-09 22-43-06(1).mp4 Also if you're on PC, please ensure your A320Neo V2 is updated to the latest version (1.0.17) in the Content Manager: Also lastly, if that doesn't work. Please try to delete the contents of this folder, as that will force the plane to re-compile the WASM next time you load it. Just to ensure it wasn't corrupted on initial launch: Steam Version %APPDATA%\Microsoft Flight Simulator\Packages\microsoft-aircraft-a320neo MS Store Version %LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\Packages\microsoft-aircraft-a320neo Thanks!

A320 version 2
Ensure all the AI Assists are disabled (Options > Assistance Options > Piloting) as they will affect the AP functions. Also do note that the A320neo V2 uses the new Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) aerodynamics model in MSFS, so it generally will be less "stable" compared to other planes as it interacts with the environment better and takes lot more factors into account. You may also want to reduce the Turbulence to MEDIUM or LOW if you feel it is too much for your liking. Me and countless other users are using this plane with the Thrustmaster Airbus Stick and Throttle Quadrant without any such issues. Please ensure again your AI assist are disabled as shown above. Also please ensure you have calibrated your throttles properly in the EFB Options page using this guide: This is normal for a de-rated take-off, as our EFB Take-off Calculator is designed to calculate for a greater second-segment climb rate, rather then get off the runway as quickly as possible. Thanks!

Sim rate and fuel burn, Stairs not showing, cruise angle
Hi @Green97 Not supported currently. Under consideration, but no timeline/guarantee of this. Known bug. Already fixed for next update. Also already addressed. Improvements to this coming in the next update. Thanks!

Simbrief not loading flight plan
Yeah that is just a WebASsembly Module (WASM) crash on load. When the WASM crashes, all code that uses it will basically stop working - end result being that systems freeze/stop responding. Anything NOT using WASM will still continue to function. This was designed by MS/Asobo such that if the code crashes, it will only be contained to things within the WASM, and not CTD the whole sim itself (like in previous simulators). However not all WASM crashes are due to the aircraft's code itself, as sometimes its to do with how the sim interacts with WASM, and where it stores that data specifically on memory. These are hardest to fix as they are difficult to reproduce, and are specific to each client's memory. Anyways, based on testing so far, next A300 update should have some workarounds/fixes that improve WASM stability. However, whenever a WASM Crash happens, only way to resolve is to restart the flight as that resets the WASM. Thanks!

[XBOX] A300-600F: FMC Winds
SAT is the Static Air Temperature, OAT is the Outside Air Temperature, and both are basically the same thing. This is the temp that will be shown on your OFP's WIND INFORMATION section, and also what you enter into the MCDU. So using the same example from above: If I was entering the info for waypoint TUDEP, and cruising at FL330, I'd input -50c as temp, and winds 218/80 as shown in red. Thanks!

External Lights not reflecting on ground 1.1.1
Have you tried with an empty community folder (nothing but the A300 in it)? Just to rule out some conflict with another add-on or lighting mod? Also perhaps try to use this lighting mod? https://flightsim.to/file/66466/inibuilds-a300-external-lighting-fix

Speed and Heading button: push and pull not possible.
INIT B page is only accessible when engines are off. It is important as that is where you set the information about your Weights and Fuel Onboard. So I would try starting from an ON APU panel state, fill in the information, then start your engines.

Localizer capture with Approach mode
Its hard to say what happened without actually seeing a video, as it may have been the right mode wasn't armed, or the intercept angle was too much etc. The proper way to Go Around is to hit the TOGA button, which would kick off LAND on the FCU. So if your LAND mode remained engaged, thats probably where the problem happened. Only A/THR should remain when you hit TOGA or executing a go-around: On the FMA you would see is: On the MCDU, it remains in APPROACH mode, and remains so for the rest of the attempt: Here is me re-establishing, still on APPROACH mode on MCDU, and LAND re-armed: Thanks!
