APU always consumes fuel from left fuel tanks
I stayed at the ground for a long time with APU on so I got some inbalance in inner tanks. I decided to feed APU using right fuel tanks but it just got fuel from the left. Did I do something, is it a bug or an airplane "feature". I grabbed two screens with only APU on and you can see that, despite the feed configuration, only the inner left fuel tank has fuel consumed.

Cannot get ILS landing to work
ILS works everytim for me. The RNAV is the problem. As mentioned, you need to be below ILS G/S so AP enganges G/S. Look at internet for a300 full sop checklist.😉

Every landing ends with high brake temps
If you set autobreak, tapping will actually release the break.

Systems and displays freezing
Thank you for this procedure, I'll try it right now. BTW, where can I get FCTM? It would save a lot of time here at forum 😄

Reverse Thrust -> how to set up?
For some reason only global decrement throttle works for reverse. When you reduce power individually on each engine it doesn't. This is why I set airbreak so I can use PMDG and A300 withouth changing profile in simulator.

Reverse Thrust -> how to set up?
I use the same HOTAS, I`ve set the A10 air brake as throttle decrement. When I land I push it. The usual OFF detent doesn`t work

Systems and displays freezing
When getting ready to descent, instead of clicking the destination LSK to set STAR.... I clicked LSK for Alternate. Then the same issue reported in this topic happened. BTW, what would be the proper procedure to go for alternate or retry a rejected landing at destination. Usually I do it by heading and ILS, but when I need to do RNAV I have I can´t reset the approach.

Incorrect Turn at Holding Fix
It's an old post, but today but it was the only one I found mentioning HOLD issues. This old problem is not happening to me anymore, but today, while trying to do a holding, despite setting heading 27X it was going to 25X. It circled properly but when I tried to leave the HOLD pressing EXIT button, the whole FMC froze. I could control the plane but only altitude was moving, despite the wrong value. I used to hate this plane when I bought it, but after a few updates I tried it again and I'm loving. I hope you guys keep fixing this issues.

A300/310 very very slow throttle response: throttle spooling up very slow
Yes. Not a bug, just don´t go low iddle when reducing speed to land because you may regret it when low and low and needing to recover speed! hehe! I simply love it!

NAVIGRAPH charts were not showing up at tablet.
A few days ago the charts were not apearing at EFB, but no warning was being shown. I finally tried found at Settings the Navigraph Clear Login. Then I authorized the connection to my Navigraph Account and it's back on. I've just posted because I didn´t find anything posted like this here.

Incorrect VNAV constraint behavior
I have the same feeling. It's always getting high and fast for approach. I'm disengaging A/T when entering APP procedure and also selecting AT, instead of AT or ABOVE, at altitude constraints for final approach fixes.

A306F Multiple System Failures all at once!
Yesterday I had a throttle problem. Autothrottle was working, but when I deactivated for landing, it went to iddle. No throttle input was being sent to the game. I could GA using AP. Then recalibrated throttle, cycled A/T several times and sudenly all came back to life. BTW I was always arriving too high for landing and now I turn of A/T to control approach speed. Also set altitude constraint to AT and not AT or ABOVE, for final fixes so that I can arrive at proper altitude. I'm enjoying the plane but, if it is not a real plane characteristic, the VNAV should be improved.

FMS VOR bearing and V/L radial tracking issues
And I don´t know if I'm doing anything wrong, but vor direction pointer to VOR at HSI isn't working either. Like it seems to be shown in first image above with both indicators are horitontal.

NAV & Logo Light switch, eye view point
Correction, it wasn´t showing while flying, now that I'm on the ground it's iluminating the logo. Go figure!?

NAV & Logo Light switch, eye view point
I am using Luffthansa livery and the logo is not being illuminated at night neither in position 1 nor 2.

FMC issues.
1)We should be able to start IRS line up just by typing current position, which is not allowed. 2)More than once I passed TOD and FMC went crazy buy loosing GW and CG data. And it was impossible to reinsert. 3)Flight plan is not progressing properly by deleting passed waypoints and showing current on at the top of the list. 4) VOR is turned off and unselectable, but DME keep showing closer VOR distance. I wish I could live this plane... 😞
