Nico: I'll try and report back.

Dear Nico-Gumby: Flt. Plan: VGJR to VGHS: VGJR Bay 1, RW 34, JSR, airway W2 - waypoints- JSR, IBANU, MIMAR, DAC. Approach at ILS RW 14, Transition MIMAR. CI-40, weights in kgs, 1000, 1000, 600. Fuel 12 Tons. First, I enter the F-PLN. Then, in the INIT-B page, I enter/line select ZFW, Block fuel. No problem. But just when I try to enter ZFWCG, it does not sit in the box prompt and the messy black magic begins! Everything hangs!? Please note, I also tried the same flight with iniBuilds A310. But no issues! I can input ZFWCG in the FMC. Please help. Haseen Ahmad.

Dear iniBuilds: I am very fond of Airbus A300-600. I worked as an avionics engineer in A310 in Biman Bangladesh Airlines from 1996 to 2016... long 20 years! I sincerely wish the iniBuilds A300-600 be one of the best for msfs 2020. And I am also looking forward to your Airbus A350! By the way, will there be any solutions or temporary work around to tackle the above issue in iniBuilds A300-600 v1.0.5? Regards, Haseen Ahmad.

Dear: 1. Even in v 1.0.5, ZFWCG Entry in FMC causes freeze and after some time, MSFS closes. Please note I use desktop PC. 2. During PROF descent, FMC target speed goes to zero, (at the bottom of PFD speed scale). 3. No TOD in either ND or FMC. 4. Flight from VGJR to VGHS. ILS RW 14, MIMAR transition. Regards, Haseen Ahmad.

I tried a flight flight from VGJR to VGHS. Took A300-600RF, DHL. Set custom loads, fwd 1000, aft 1000, fuel 12,000kg. The ZFWCG in the EFB Weight & Balance page was 24.6. After I completed the F-PLN, I went to INIT-B page. Entered ZFW, Block fuel by double clicking 1R, 2R LSK. Then, tried to enter 24.6 in the ZFWCG box promt. But it won't go there. Stays in the scratch pad. I can not delete it. If I change the baro value in the altimeter, the pointer moves, but the baro value remains 1013. I tried to start engines. I can hear the engine sound. But no update in N2, N1, EGT indication. Haseen Ahmad.

After entering the flight plan, I went to INIT-B page. Entered ZFWCG. FMC and many instuments got frozen. Please take into account. Regards, Haseen Ahmad.

By the way, I tried the same flight with IniBuilds A310-300. That was great, no such issues with PROF, speed target etc.! The autoflight system of A310 and A300 are same. But why the autoflight of A300, a paid add-on, is causing issues? Haseen Ahmad.

Dear Nico, Thanks for replying! Yes, but the AT target speed goes down to 0 (zero) which is dangerous! Please take this into account. Haseen Ahmad.

Dear: I was doing a short flight from VGJR to VGHS, ILS RW 32, 79 nm. Cruising at FL130. No top of descent. PROF mode engaged. During descend, FCU speed window is dashed, but in PFD speed target goes to 0 (zero). I have to quit PROF and use VS and manual speed select. Please help. Haseen Ahmad.

In A300 and A310, when HDG SEL mode is selected, PROF mode if previously active or armed, cancels. But it should not happen in A300-600R. It is like Boeing planes. PROF or VNAV remains active. It is true for A320, A330, CLB changes to OP CLB when HDG mode is selected. But for A300, PROF should remain active. Please comment. Haseen Ahmad.

Dear: In the Select Aircraft menu, I find iniBuilds A300 and A300-600R. But I expect to see A300-600RF for the freighters. Why is A300 showing instead of A300-600RF? Please help. Regards, Haseen Ahmad.

I set in the FCU, V2= 163 Kts, then pushed the speed knob expecting to see blue PRESET light. But can't see preset light. Haseen Ahmad.

Ok. Nico. Waiting for the new A300-600R and wish my old A310-300 comes back properly fixed!

Thanks David for your response. But any idea how long it would take to fix? How about upcoming A300-600R? Haseen Ahmad.

Dear: I was looking forward to getting the upcoming A300-600 for my MSFS 2020, because I loved flying A310 so much! I worked as an Avionics B2 engineer in A310 in Biman Bangladesh Airlines for 20 years. But suddenly my A310 stopped working. Why? Please help. Regards, Haseen Ahmad Engineer Officer Biman Bangladesh Airlines Dhaka, Bangladesh.

Do you use Navigraph nav data for your MSFS 2020? Haseen Ahmad.

Dear: I tried a takeoff, approach and landing at same airport VGSY. I chose rw 29 for takeoff. Selected approach ILS RW 11, freq. 111.50, crs 115 deg., transition D230L. After takeoff, I used HDG SEL. Then DIR TO D230L in FMS. Pressed NAV. But A310 AP unable to follow navigation to D230L. It goes away from the track. So, I reverted to HDG SEL. Followed the track by HDG SEL. At intercept heading, I selected LOC. LOC* appeared. Then pressed LAND and selected 2nd AP. GS blue appeared. But A310 can't capture and track GS. I had to select VS and completed the landing in a very clumsy way. For reference, I flew the same flight with PMDG 737-800. It flies very well. I don't subscribe to Navigraph presently. I don't know whether that poses any issue to navigation of MSFS 2020 default airplanes and Inibuilds A310. Please help. Regards, Haseen Ahmad.

I removed 3 Navigraph files from msfs 2020 Community folder. Now navigation seems ok. Thanks. Haseen Ahmad.

After latest update, I tried to do a flight from VGJR to VGHS. But I can't insert waypoint JSR in the F-PLN. Also, VGHS does not any approach procedures. I did this flight successfully many times before this update in A310. Please help. Haseen Ahmad.

Dear JoshF: I tried to reproduce as you said. Please find attachments. Hope these help. Regards, Haseen Ahmad.

I was making a short flight from VAPO to VABB. I set a speed/alt constraint at BBB/117/14 PBD, 210/5000 for approach to VABB ILS 27. But during climb from VAPO, plane is maintaining 210 knots where as I am expecting to accelerate to 250 kts! The mentioned constraint is for approach to VABB. Not for dep. from VAPO. For ref., I did the same flight with Fenixsim A320 and PMDG 737-800. They accelerate to 250 kts below 10k and to 290 kts above 10k. They only slow down to 210 kts when approaching the PBD: BBB/117/14 PBD, 210/5000. Is it a bug in IniBuilds A310? Please help. Regards, Haseen Ahmad Dhaka, Bangladesh.

After Vert Revision from F-PLN page, RETURN key does not work. Does not show flight plan. I have to press F-PLN key. Haseen Ahmad.

Dear: I made a flight from VGJR to VGHS. For arrival at VGHS, I selected STAR NONE, Approach ILS 14, Transition MIMAR. But *INSERT is not visible adjacent to 6L LSK. But again 6L LSK works! Why *INSERT not visible? Please help. Haseen Ahmad.

I don't have FSLTL.

What is FSLTL?
