Airbus 320 Compact panel view in fs9

[Guest pip1755]

First of all as a new user of PSS Airbus I've found a lot of useful tips on how to fly and setup correctly.But I haven't found a way of displaying correctly the compact (VFR) view (Panel views - Systems manual). Numpad 2 gives me an outside view but above all instruments. This would be useful at takeoff and approach.There must be a simple explanation so any help appreciated.Philip

Shift+2 is the normal combination.

Thanks for the tip.Shift+2 from the alpha kbd does the trick and not shift+2 from numeric pad as I had been using.CheersPhlip

Don't forget you have shift+3 for the MCDU and Shift+4 for the pedestal.

I hate to zombie bump this thread, but you might want to update your Panel and Systems manual with this information as the manual says it's Numpad 2 for the compact view, which is of course the outside view. Was very confusing until I searched on it and found this informative thread.Thanks again for the info and sorry for the late bump,Ken

"sorry for the late bump"No problem. It's actually the same thing my wife said when we had our 3rd child in our mid 40s :)Rob Elliott, EGPE InvernessPSS Airbus Support andAirbus Fleet Training Captain, British Airways Virtual airbus@speedbirdonline.co.ukhttp://www.speedbirdonline.co.uk/airbus.htmlhttp://www.bavirtual.co.uk
