  1. When I remember correctly VLOC or pure vor navigation is bugged at the moment and should be fixed next update. VLOC doesn’t work properly on my side as well. best regards felix
  2. Hi, BTW it is the same with the pause system. Pausing the SIM (while flying the A310) in particular if you go into a menu will cause the A310 to go totally crazy when you resume the game. Unrecoverable. Best regards, Felix
  3. Hi, Land ASAP 😉 1. RAT : On (Ram Air Turbine, there is a handle on the left side of the Captain seats) RAT will allow the yellow hydraulic system to be powered and will give you flight controls to operate. 2. Throttles: IDLE Optimum Speed: green dot speed (average rate of descent 1700 ft/min) 3. Emer Exit LT : Disarm 4. Flaps 15° for approach 5. At 2000 ft AGL Emer Exit LT On 6. Before "impact" Ram Air on, Pitch approx 11° 7. at Touchdown: fuel levers off, pull all fire handles I took the relevant steps from the QRH (Quick Reference Handbook for Both Engine Flame Out Scenario with no Fuel remaining). I listed not all steps, just the most important. Most important thing to to do is to turn on RAT to power the yellow hydraulic system. Hope the helps. Best regards Felix

    MSFS 2020 A310

    Hi, Have you installed the Dirty Livery Pack from Dreamscenery? That livery package causes exactly the issue you have described. Best regards, Felix
  5. Hi together, just as an information for other pilots. If you have installed the Dirty Livery Pack from Dreamscenery then I highly recommend deinstalling it as it seems to interfere with the A310. As a result of this livery package you will the yourself with an animated Captain and a Copilot in the seats and all switches are not clickable. Iam running on Xbox, but I have seen a post on the official MSFS forum for PC as well. Best regards, Felix
  6. @gumbygerJust spot something. Is it possible that in your case your new step climb altitude was lower that the optimized FL in the FMC ? In my case I had 373 FL Max and something like 365 FL for optimized. I then tried 370 FL for the step. This did not work. Maybe the algorithm compares the new step climb altitude to the optimized instead to the max level, so it essentially thinks no you can't go that high. Just guessing here. Will test that after christmas.
  7. This is really strange. I will make a video as well after Christmas. I'm doing it exactly the same way and the plane doesn't climb. Maybe you can spot something I have done wrong. But I mean there is actually not much you can do wrong hmm....
  8. Hi, thx for taking care. Btw if you need another Xbox tester let me know. I have most of your scenery and would be happy to help sort things on XBox relevant topics. Atm I have flown around 60000 km with the A310 on my first around the world trip. I have already a small list of little things I have found on the A310. Will make a post about them, when I have finished the whole trip. Best regards and merry Christmas to all of you. Best reagrds, Felix
  9. Hi, (Iam on XBoxX) after landing I taxi to the gate, turn on the APU shut down the engines and then would instantly like to prepare for the next flight (without exiting). So I do refueling through the EFB , new flight plan through simbrief and start from the beginning. This will result in 100% CTD. I did now 10 tests and it always crashes to the XBoxX main menu, mostly during taxi. You can actually accelerate the CTD by changing views (in the cockpit left/right etc....). It only happens with the A310. No problems with other aircrafts doing this. Maybe that is something to look into the future. Not a major thing, since you can always start a new flight via the menu. Best regards, Felix
  10. HI, I just tested it myself and can confirm that it is not working as shown in the Video. (Running on Xbox X) 1. Flying leveled at CRZ Alt FL340 2. Insert Step Climb for the next Waypoint to FL370 (FMS is now updated to FL370) 3. Changing Altitude knob to FL 370 4. Getting P.CLB flashing Blue in the FMA shortly before reaching the waypoint 4. Crossing the Waypoint - nothing happens. P.CLB flashing in blue just vanished. Comment: There was no turn followed after waypoint , pretty much a straight line. Best regards, Felix
  11. Hi Cammac, thx for your answer! Ok if it was a customer option, which then could be allowed in the SOP - perfectly fine with that - did not know that 🙂. Do you have any SOP where this is actually written down? But as I said you can not use profile mode at NZQN even only to MDA. MDA there is at 4100 ft. Test it yourself. Not gonna work. At the FAF in a perfectly state you should have 0 deviation from the vertical profile. At NZQN you will start with around +2200 ft deviation from the vertical path at the FAF (perfectly configured according to charts), which is logical, because of the followed circular pattern. The "customer option/profile mode" can only be used with RNAV approaches which follow a straight or curved approach track, but no circle to land procedures. In case of circle to land things you can not even use profile mode just to MDA. In those cases you only have two choices 1. V/S Mode 2. FPA/FPV. FPA/FPV is also very important for visual approaches. I mean you can probably read between the lines .... I just want that feature so bad 🙂 Best regards, Felix
  12. Hi Thanks for your response. I'm aware of that video and the VNAV feature with respect to Non-Precision approaches. The reason why I asked is that the Airbus A310 procedures actually do not allow to fly the final approach in profile mode. They use profile mode to the FAF and then switch to V/S mode. That is the standard procedure for non-precision approaches. See Screenshot below. That is actually the same I have found in any other SOP or QRH documents of the A310. I actually have read somewhere in the 1000+ pages where it explicitly says "profile mode not allowed in final approach". According to some videos I have found pilots of the A310 have reported that the profile mode of the A310 was not that accurate and has its drawbacks. But I just heard that can not verify this at all. Apart from that the profile mode will fail if you have special RNAV approaches followed by a circle to land procedure. For example NZQN 23 RNAV H, because it does not take the circling part into account. I have tested this several times, because I like the inibuilt NZQN scenery 🙂 Don't get me wrong. Not a biggy, but would just be nice to have 🙂 Best regards, Felix
  13. Hi, I just came across a video of the inibuilds failure system of the A310 and that was absolut stunning. Will there be a time where this comes to MSFS on Xbox. I would pay for it! Best regards, Felix
  14. Hi, apparently terrain radar is not implemented yet, but it definitely has an operating TCAS system including radar on board. The radar of the traffic is implemented in the analog vertical speed indicator. Best regards, Felix
  15. Hi, I'm enjoying your Scenery NZQN. The only thing that bugs me is the fact that you can not get the weather shown up on the EFB (A310) for NZQN. I have tried now for multiple days. I also realized that there seems to be no Metar support on the internet for that Airport , which kinda explains it. I also have the impression, that the Live weather is also not correct at all, comparing it to for example windy.com. BTW, Iam on Xbox. Do you have the same issues? Best regards, Felix
