Yes.

 

I have the "A320 Professional Download Version" by him. Absolutely excellent! Definitely worth it IMO.

How about this one?  Can anyone comment on it?  http://www.a320guide.com/

 

I bought it a couple of days ago. It is an amazing book, great editing with a lot of information about the systems of the A320. Many photos included of very high quality and definition, also videos of procedures are included. This is not about how to fly the A320 but rather how the systems work and how their operation is displayed in the cockpit (like switches functions and eicas messages). I certainly recommend it!

And so is the one by Mike Ray mentioned here more about how to fly the A320?  I'm not exactly sure which type of book I'd prefer.  Probably should get them both but they're not cheap.  Really can't wait for Airline2Sim's stuff w/ the A320!!!  But, that's going to be a ways out I think so looking for something else in the mean time.

I don't know about the Mike Ray's book. I also wait for the Airline2Sim training, it will be amazing I'm sure. Airline2Sim training mostly focuses on how to properly fly the airplane, so this system book is covering another aspect in my opinion. Its gonna explain what the smallest inlet on the airframe is there for, for example, or how the fueling system works.

I'm a huge fan of Mike Ray's books. You won't get bored reading it, I learned the ixeg 737 using his 737cl training guide, made it a much more rewarding experience.

Got the PDF and the print version of his A320 book and the print version of his Boeing 700 Series book. Any and all of them are recommended, although if you can spring for the printed versions they are nice to have whilst you have FS open and are flying. Occasionally you see some FS online stores with them on sale at bargain prices, but even at full price they are still good value.

Moved from "Tips and Tricks" since this thread is not about either a "Tip" or a "Trick."

In the future, please do not post questions in an "answers only" forum. :dance:
