February 2, 20179 yr If you have your route selected correctly and have a TOD visible, then you can look at the altimeter within your PFD and you should see a magenta doughnut .That is your vertical path marker.. It will be in the center as you start your descent and the aim is to keep it as near to center as possible. Handy to know if you need to squirt a little speedbrake in on your descent. Another option as you mentioned is to select the PROG page in your FMGC and this will show deviation from vertical path. Thanks :-) Michael Moe Michael Moe
February 2, 20179 yr Also, waypoint altitude/speed constraint circle is displayed in magenta color on the ND if the constraint is reachable with current path parameter (managed descent). If it's not reachable with managed descent, then the color turns amber. Circle color is white when managed descent is Off = no vertical navigation (if I remember my home work ).

February 2, 20179 yr Folks, If I don't load the flightplan directly from PFPX and don't fly on-line, so technically I may cut-off AOC, right? I suspect that this guy is sucking out FPS somehow, 9950X3D, X870E ROG CROSSHAIR HERO, Corsair Dominator Titanium 64GB DDR5-6000 PC5-48000, ASUS RTX 5070Ti 16GB, 9100 PRO 4TB Samsung ,990 PRO 4TB Samsung, AX1600i 1600 Watt 80 Plus Titanium ATX, ASUS 360 ARGB EXTREME 360mm Liquid CPU Cooling Kit.

I have no idea if this service is actually linked to any other A320 systems. Mark CYYZ

Okey, I'm gonna try it later tonight Folks, Since the manual is quite humble, I'm just curious is there any winds' imports exist similar to what PMDG have. 9950X3D, X870E ROG CROSSHAIR HERO, Corsair Dominator Titanium 64GB DDR5-6000 PC5-48000, ASUS RTX 5070Ti 16GB, 9100 PRO 4TB Samsung ,990 PRO 4TB Samsung, AX1600i 1600 Watt 80 Plus Titanium ATX, ASUS 360 ARGB EXTREME 360mm Liquid CPU Cooling Kit.

Great stuff thanks :wink: Need to dick into the FCOM/FCTM´s But the bow solution on the ND is a nice extra touch in the Boing´s agree ? You get a very nice and quick perspective where the "end of the bow" is vs "your supposed to be at" Descent Path. Thanks Michael Moe Michael Moe
February 2, 20179 yr Folks, If I don't load the flightplan directly from PFPX and don't fly on-line, so technically I may cut-off AOC, right? I suspect that this guy is sucking out FPS somehow, I was having some issues with AOC initially causing bad stutters (even though I had high FPS in the 40-50 range) and had to disable it each flight in task manager. Oddly, it now seems to not be causing me any issues. FSL has stated that they found the cause and it should be fixed in the next update. That being said, AOC does pull your PFPX plan I found out....by accident! It apparently recognizes the route once you plug in the departure and destination and you flight plan magically appears! It is a wonderful aircraft, the best I have flown to date. My NGX which I have flown exclusively for the past 2 years has been hangared... Okey, I'm gonna try it later tonight Folks, Since the manual is quite humble, I'm just curious is there any winds' imports exist similar to what PMDG have. You cannot at the moment import winds like you can in the NGX but you can insert an average headwind/tailwind that is provided on the PFPX plan. I think the wind entries are planned for their SP1.

I think the wind entries are planned for their SP1. Actually you can enter detailled winds for each flight phase from DATA page, but I'm not sure the use of them is done in the code as they are not displayed in the F-PLN page / Vertical revision. >>>> See here the related post Roland MSFS my local airport release: LFOR Chartres-Metropole MSFS Plugins RAAS (registered FSUIPC7 required) MSFS FX for Objects & Landmark in France (Steam and smoke) and Aerial coverage for French nuclear sites
February 3, 20179 yr Actually you can enter detailled winds for each flight phase from DATA page, but I'm not sure the use of them is done in the code as they are not displayed in the F-PLN page / Vertical revision. >>>> See here the related post Anyone knows if the winds are taken into account when calculating the vertical navigation? Either detailed winds or average winds? If you are manually entering all of your flight plans then I think you are correct. I have no idea if this service is actually linked to any other A320 systems. Is this service need to whom loads the plan as a TO/FROM combination? I like this approach better than that odd printing approach. Best regards, Wanthuyr Filho Instagram: AeroTacto
February 3, 20179 yr To/from. I think unless oh have huge problems just leave the service on. It is only to get flight PLANs from the VATSIM server or pfpx. Mark CYYZ
February 3, 20179 yr If you are manually entering all of your flight plans then I think you are correct. I have no idea if this service is actually linked to any other A320 systems. I think you need this service running to request weather too(from AS16), don't you? If it's not running, you can't do it via the MCDU.

February 4, 20179 yr I think you need this service running to request weather too(from AS16), don't you? If it's not running, you can't do it via the MCDU. Correct..it is also used to pull your flight plan from PFPX. I've been using it to get the flight ready and then ending it in task manager before takeoff due to the stutter issues I have had with it.

February 4, 20179 yr Amazing aircraft indeed . I am gonna put hours/days/years into this Airbus. There is not much information regarding the PFPX integration. If i print a flightplan where should it load ? I get a invalid flightplan upon requesting. making a DEP/ARR airport combi seems to work also. At least it loads a flightplan (very very nice) Is this from VATSIM ? Thanks Michael Moe Michael Moe
February 4, 20179 yr All you have to do is save your PFPX PDF as e.g. LFPGEGLL01 and put it in FSL route folder. Then enter in your co route LFPGEGLL01 and it loads your flight plan etc. David Murden.
