February 21, 20215 yr I've found V/S to be finicky as well. I am reluctant to criticize the FBW folks here as they are doing a fantastic job! MSFS ATC is quirky and I usually wind up not using it after climb -- often because I am too busy doing something else! It does recognize my flight plan, including destination, even though I didn't enter one in the MSFS box before I started the flight, and loaded the flight plan into the MCDU from SimBrief after plane is loaded at gate.

Mike Yeah, these guys are heroes. They're doing a ton of work in a really short amount of time. It wouldn't surprise me to see a full featured Neo out of this group in the next 2 or 3 months. Jeff D.

Similar for arrival airport, various approaches and STARs. Generally select runway first - MCDU should only show SIDs/STARs (as the case may be) for that runway, but I'm not sure it's working properly. MCDU is not perfect, but it does work. Bear in mind that there are four different versions at any moment: 1) current stable version 2) current in-progress version, 3) current in progress version with their custom fbw and 4) version 3 with dual autopilot autoland. The last is available from link in Discussions in autoland thread only. I've been using 4). Also, it's important to update, especially after an MSFS update. MSFS updates frequently break things; the A32NX people are quick to fix them. Try to stick to the same version (1 through 4 above) so you get used to how that version works. Mike I am using the FBW installer and see Stable v0.5.3, Development 007d8ed and Custom FBW (experimental v f05a681). Where is this version 4? John

You should find it in this thread. Just scroll down until you see the link. https://github.com/flybywiresim/a32nx/discussions/3460 Mike
