Hello AllI have asked this before but i am still not clear on the PA flaps settings.In most aircraft that i fly on takeoff i usually select five or ten degrees of flaps,but when i set flaps in the Project airbus I get this..... Position one = no apparent change ,position two = no apparent change,position three= fifteen degrees.There obviously meant to be this way( all models are like like this)but if somebody can explain this setup i would appreciate it.What is the equivalent of five or ten degrees in the PA AIRBUS.CHEERS Andy

Not sure about Project Airbus but if they are trying to mimic the real thing you should see..Flap 1 1+F 2 3 Config FullRob

For A320:http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/188473.jpgNote that pilot can only set position 1, and computer decides if mode will be 1 or 1 + F based on speed / condition logic.scott s..

1+F is only available on the ground the system then auto retracts to 1 at a certain speed. I look forward to a good airbus package turning up. Rob
