About A320 boarding

[sag75]

Hi, firtsly thank you for your product, i'm enjoying it very much.

Probably I missed a point, but how to start boarding? Need I to start by my self on the MCDU2 upon the hostess says that we are ready to boarding?

Thanks

Hi Alex,

The boarding is simulated.  There's nothing to do your side.

But you need to program the MCDU for your flight.

Best,

Hi, ok but MCDU#2 loadsheet page doesn't change its pax/cargo/fuel numbers at the end of pre-flight operations. They just stay at 0. Is it intended? 

About MCDU#1 yes I put every number in.

I'm not totally sure I follow, but FS2Crew doesn't touch anything inside the MCDU.

Ok, so I need to start manually Fuel, Cargo and Pax loadings by acting on the MCDU#2 in order to have the right Airbus weight.

Thus when FA asks me for boarding clearance I will say yes and I will click on MCDU2 as well to start weighted Pax boarding, right?

You can basically do it anyway you like.

When building FS2Crew for the Airbus, I personally never triggered any ground events via the MCDU.

Bryan,

The MCDU has a boarding function in the ATSU pages.  If you set up your flight from SimBrief, it will load the pax when you press start to get to your required ZFW.

Question - Do you have the ability to actually control the MCDU and start the pax boarding....would be a great feature after saying YES to the FA that this happens automatically.

Not possible for us to control that I'm afraid.
