How do you get the Traffic displayed at "even" numbers on the ND? No matter what plane i fly, my traffic is always shown like "+43", "-27" and so on. Like they fly on their own altimeter setting.

I don't know honestly, never noticed if it has even or odd numbers... I fly with default MSFS traffic and ATC.

Have you reported this on the beta forums?

I tried with another flight plan and the behavior is the same.

I will do it now, even though I am still in doubt whether it works as intended...

And this was my argument yesterday. I never said the A320 was unsafe. I said it breeds complacency. It applies to any modern jet airliner. I just personally think the A320 is all button pushing. 

Yeah, you reminded me of the legendary class "children of the magenta line" 🙂

I built a flight plan in simbrief from OMDB to EDDB, I didn't notice anything missing. Loaded the same plan into the FBW Neo and they appeared to be identical.

Side note, the ini A320N appeared to load it instantly, but the FBW took almost a minute.

after a few straight days of flying patterns, approaches, maneuvers in a 1986 IA-1124A, jumping right into an Airbus is wild. Bob and I each looked at each other on the climb in the A320 and said: “*******, this isn’t even piloting!”

🤦‍♂️

Just a bash against different type of flyer using all the modern capabilities afforded to them.

When some airline SOPs prevent pilots from flying without the automatics engaged from 500' on departure to 1,000' on arrival, what are they supposed to do?

How can airline pilots get "checked out on a GA aircraft locally and try to make time to buzz around town a few times a year with a 6-pack and no moving maps" when some airlines max out their pilots' annual flight hours?

When pilots are permitted to turn off the automatics and hand fly, there's more encouragement for them to do so.

If it "isn't even piloting", how come I, as a non-qualified pilot, cannot sit up front of a 737 or A320 and say I have 2,500 hours on each type?

This social media pilot is after clicks and views by criticising other professional aviators for not flying as he deems 'correct'.

He didn’t criticise anyone? 🤦🏻

So? It’s a discussion forum, right? 

Back on topic, has anyone else noticed the engine nacelles being too close to the ground compared to the real LEAP?

With external power running and flight plan loaded, I get about the same FPS on outside views on both the ini and FBW
Cockpit FPS however is about 10-15 higher on the FBW

This topic is for discussing the ini A320N, not whatever it is you're bringing up.

No, it’s relevant. If you don’t think it is, just scroll on by, but please don’t tell Me what to do!

Just to make sure we follow the same steps, do you also load the PLN file in the World Map?

I hope that's not the issue because I like to use MSFS ATC 🙂

Oh, no, I loaded it only via the MCDU

No, it's not. Side tangets and the ensuing holy wars are what cause the mods to lock the thread. I'd rather this thread not get locked over something that has absolutely nothing to with the IniBuilds A320n. The complacany issue -- which all modern airlines suffer from -- is better off in its own thread.

The wings are also a bit thicker than they should be, ini is taking in the feedback on their discord and the beta forums.

 

With the holiday in the US next week, was Friday's build the build for next week? I am thinking we won't get an update on Monday, but rather the following week.

It was my mistake, I could not find the INIT REQUEST* item in the INIT page today... I swear it was not there, very strange! 

It works after the init request.

Thanks!
