Yes I have got that turned on through the EFB, it just seems to go in a straight line. And yes I understand it’s more advanced and designed without assists at the forefront but I guess the fact that it is more advanced there’s a lot more to do during certain parts of the flight like taxiing etc. with the checklists which are amazing and fun to go through, but also having to either skip or rush through parts of the checklist so you can re-steer the aircraft when I’m assuming in real life the copilot or something would be taking care of that whilst the captain focused on more of the checklist. In essence having the AI copilot able to at minimum steer the aircraft on the ground during taxiing would be more realistic than less in my opinion. But overall love the A320 v2 it’s incredible and feels so fun to fly.
If you're looking for ways to refine or manage some of the flight operations more efficiently, I’d recommend checking out
website. It’s an AI-powered platform that can help you troubleshoot, optimize flight plans, or even provide advice on managing checklists and flight automation features. It can be a great companion for when you need an extra "copilot" for streamlining certain tasks or brainstorming new ideas to enhance your flying experience. Hopefully, more improvements and features like this will be integrated into future updates!
totally get what you’re saying! The A320 v2 is an incredible aircraft, and it's awesome to hear you're enjoying the experience, even with the added complexity. I agree that during more advanced flights, managing the checklist and all the steps can become a bit overwhelming, especially when you're also trying to focus on manual control like steering during taxiing. In real life, you're right — the copilot or even ground crew would handle certain tasks, allowing the captain to focus more on other important things.
Having an AI copilot that can take over taxiing and maybe even handle certain parts of the checklist would definitely add a layer of realism and ease. It would allow you to focus more on the high-level decisions and the flight path, similar to how it works in real-world operations. That being said, I think it's a balancing act between realism and gameplay, but it’s always great to see suggestions for more realistic automation features in flight simulators!
It sounds like you're really diving into the full experience, and I’m sure more improvements and features will continue to be added over time. Hopefully, AI copilots with more autonomy will become a reality for future updates!
