I am a real world Airbus pilot with thousands of hours flying the real aircraft and thought it would be fun to have a look at the new detailed simulation of the longest baby 'bus by Toliss as well as the new MSFS a320 NEO. Hopefully you find this useful and it brings another perspective to your simulation. Any thoughts or comments are welcome!

Great short video of the approach into Skiathos! 👍 Would enjoy more of these quick explainers!

320 sim pilot: it is after all, just a airliner
Boeing fans: *rage intensifies*

[@colasmulot]

Very interesting approach outside of the standard AP STAR and straight ILS approach, I will definitely try this as it looks as challenging as it is beautiful !

[@bjornkeizers]

Ha, nice! I was actually doing this a few times last weekend. Flew Mykonis - Skiathos a few times, as well as the reverse and a few others. These island approaches are good fun with a bit of weather.

[@CrashEd1664]

Just bought the Skiathos scenery - great timing! 👍

[@707liner8]

Fab! And a classic livery too, very nice

[@ElitistMagi]

lovely video! beautiful approach, have to try this one! and you have to try the RW19 visual into KDCA! :D

[@Ronald9540]

At video again! It would be nice to see these approaches with the weather set just above the minimums (though it would hide the amazing scenery)

[@The_Entity]

i didnt realise how much technical nerdiness goes into flying a plane until seeing this video. sounds suuuper interesting! ( im a data analyst so all that stuff is right up my strasse)

[@320SimPilot]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Krahamus]

Fenix a320 coming prob this week, can wait to see sim pilot flying that baby and reviewing it 😎

[@kobuspool3392]

Wow. Great skill.

[@Dg-zj6jo]

Nice one sir looks brilliant in Crete today

[@devworthygamestm367]

Incredible!!

[@brandonchappell1535]

That yatch beneath the approach path woulda had a nice wake up call haha

[@mpapad1968]

A like for the livery!

[@fras444]

13:48 Seeing the title description and wording saying it's MSFS but....
You wouldn't think it, but you are actually watching a real landing video footage starting from 14:00.....

[@LaurenV2500]

"it is, after all, just an airliner."
No captain, the 737 is a giant jet powered Cessna! xD

[@axel20j]

What tool do you use for the replay? Seems to work very nice 👍

[@bublysaini5862]

Good

[@doritos-r6]

question for ya , do you have your sound set to default audio levels or do you use the option that simulates you in the cabin wearing headphones and muffles some of the engine noise and what not?

[@kiekiek]

Nice vid. I was wondering, are your tutorials for the Toliss A321 suitable enough for the upcoming Fenix A320? Or are the planes too different? I really want to learn to fly an A320 of study or very near studylevel like the Fenix is supposed to be.

[@examplewastaken]

I reckon that the Toliss videos combined with the A32NX videos should be usable. The neo doesn't handle too different after all. I mean that was Airbus' main goal when they built the neo.

[@NickF14]

Great video. What graphics settings do you use and what’s your PC specs? Thanks.

[@320SimPilot]

Thanks Nick! All is set to ultra, 1440p. I limit it to 30 fps to help my recording software keep up!

[@NickF14]

@@320SimPilot Lovely, looks great! I just can't seem to get stutter-free performance and I'm running decent spec...
AMD Ryzen 7 5700X
Nvidia 2080 Ti
32gb RAM
MSFS installed on SSD
And for some reason I get so much stuttering at times that the game is literally unplayable. I'm running less than ultra.
Do you limit your FPS within the game, or externally?

[@davethebass3517]

Really enjoyed thos one. We had a flight in/out of Skiathos on holiday once on a 737 great fun landing and taking off from that short runway.

[@devansh8846]

Captain, why you approach at Vref speed? Why you don't add any wind correction speed?

[@anbrod1]

Nice landing!

[@320SimPilot]

Thanks!

[@tfgmarch]

I'm on console and using the default A320 because fly by wire don't do their add on for xbox. How can I get my a320 to slow down automatically in decent? TIA

[@amerikanpoliskamerasvideol6170]

Which recording app are using I use msfs s one but it doesnt show flaps on replay

[@midnightshock9195]

his doesnt show reverse thrust so...

[@kubadvorak996]

First!!

[@avrahamramati6883]

You forgot to put the landing gear to OFF during flight.

[@obriets]

Seems lacking that a 737 won’t let you set a descent path as a percentage.

[@examplewastaken]

I'm having a hard time believing that those sounds are realistic...

[@MyEmpire91]

my god, pmdg looks are really awful compared to FENIX A320!!
