Hi all, I encountered something, which I believe to be a bug. When starting up the aircraft from cold and dark and the upper ecam display comes to live after its self test, it initially shows the engine indications with numbers not with the double red xx. After a while it switches to the xx where it stays until selecting ignition in the engine mode selector. In a tutorial by A330Driver it seems that the ecam should indicate the red xx right from the beginning (at 3:50 and following): In the screenshot attached you can see the critical moment of my startup . As you can see in the screenshot, the aircraft is right in the startup process from cold and dark, since the standby attitude indicator is still calibrating. The ENG mode selector is in Norm and the ecam shows the green numbers instead of the red xx. I am on Xbox btw.

Hi @richboy2307, I could narrow it down: The issue occurs when decending in Profile mode and then manually selecting a speed. The MCP than switches to level change but apparently doesn´t arm the before selected altitude. It doesn´t happen when selecting a altitude and descending down to it with either lvl chg or profile from the beginning. If I am not mistaken, before SU15 it was possible to manually select a speed and still decent in profile mode? But either way the plane shouldn´t descent below the selected altitude. As the screenshot shows, I have slected 7000 feet but the plane kept descending below 7000 ft (at 6700 ft with 1800 ft/m descent rate). The flight mode annunciator shows SPD and NAV but not the ALT in blue, which it does when descending with level change from the beginning. Hope this helps figuring out the issue.

Hi, I am happy to share a screenshot once I find the time to do another flight. Hopefully this weekend. When I am remembering correctly, it was two times an RNAV/RNP Approach and the third time an ILS, but I wouldn´t bet my life on it. I´ll come back on this soon 🙂

Since SU15 I have a strange issue. On climb the aircraft levels off at the altitude selected in the MCP. In descent it doesn´t level off at the right altitude but continues to descent towards ground. It happend in three of three flights I made with the A310 since SU15, but I can´t tell if it´s a generell problem with the autopilot (i.e. also happening with V/S and level change) or just a issue with profile.
