  1. Just a suggestion, but I think I much prefer the Performance page layout, colors, fonts, etc. on the XPlane version of the A300 over the MSFS version.  The XPlane version seems to be much closer in appearance to real performance calculators I am familiar with.  So my suggestion would be, if viable, to make the performance page of the EFB more closely resemble the XPlane version.  The colors, and especially the bold fonts, are easier to read in my opinion.

    I attached a photo of the real-World FedEx A300 performance tool for reference.

  2. Hello, I’ve been having issues with LFSB as well.  Seems to be linked to selecting the ILS RWY 15 approaches in the FMS.  The ILS 33 approaches seem to work and also the RNAV 15 approaches work.  I have not tried the VOR 15 yet.  Josh responded to my thread on this on the Discord server, so the team is aware and looking for a fix.

    So workaround for now is to just select the RNAV approach at LFSB.

    Cheers,

  3. From a C/D state, after turning the battery switches to auto/on and connecting external power to the electrical system, I’ve noticed that the battery flow bars are still visible for quite a long period of time.  I was just curious as to what the reason is for this and if it is correct.  The only reason I could think of as to why they would be visible at this stage is to charge the batteries.  However, on the DC ECAM page and also on the DC Meters, all 3 batteries are showing amperages of 0, so they are not charging.  Also, they all have more than 25v charge.  Yet, the flow bars still remain.  They do eventually turn off after a long time.  Is this extended time period correct behavior?

    The test won't work with BOTH OVRD SUPPLY Switches ON, because then you are in DUAL OVRD SUPPLY, so everything is split up. The Test should work with only 1 OVRD SUPPLY Switch ON. My company does the test a little different: Only BAT ON (without any OVRD SUPPLY) you check AC EMER ON INV light ON & DC ESS ON BAT light ON.

    Attached you will find the schematic of the Electrical System

    Yeah, I could have worded it better.  I meant to try the test with both OVRD Supply Switches 1 & 2 separately.  The tests in the sim work differently for each switch, but neither one is quite correct.

  5. Also, it wasn’t clear from my manuals, but from having used similar units before, shouldn’t all displays show 8’s during the test to make sure all of the light filaments work?
