Project Airbus flap positions need explanation

Recommended Posts

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

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
