320simpilot is one of my preferred YouTubers.

Another vote here for 320simpilot who was an A320 captain. If you go to his channel on youtube you'll see a few playlists, one of them specifically for the Fenix. These include some videos designed as generic A320 tutorials. They're a bit old (320simpilot has since gone to the 'dark side' and is now a real world Boeing 787 captain 😀), so a few details specific to the Fenix might be a little out of date, but the general principles of flying the airbus won't have changed and I found his style very informative.

His 777 tutorials are also excellent.  While he flies the 787 he is also type rated in the 777 (shared rating).
