- This video looks at the pre-flight procedures which involve entering the flight plan into the Flight Management System (FMS) using the Multi-function Control Display Unit (MCDU). This video will show you how to edit the flight plan, select Departure and Arrival Procedures and calculate the performance of the aircraft.

DISCLAIMER: While this video is intended for educational purposes, I must stress that I am not a professional pilot or instructor and I am not certified in any way with regards to aviation or education. Every subject I talk about is based on my personal study and understanding. Therefore the information I give may be incorrect or inaccurate and should NOT be used as a reference for real world flying.
Some learn by reading; others by watching. I'm definitely a "watch" kind of learner.
But so many FSX videos overly complicate everything, swamping you with information that even the producer probably doesn't expect you to remember. And often, they're narrated in an excruciatingly tedious tone that first turns you right off, and, if you persist, just sends you to sleep.
But this series of videos really explains things in detail, but clearly and concisely, and with a voice that holds the viewer's attention. I've had a number of questions that these videos have answered; so much kudos for that. I'm sure plenty of other videos have done the same thing. The difference is that I couldn't endure those videos long enough to figure out the answer.
So thank you, Doofer, for producing useful, informative videos that answer questions efficiently, without confusing or boring the pants off your viewers. Basically, they do what it says on the tin.
Thank you for the very kind words Andrew. I took a lot of time, care and attention to write and design the videos in a way that would suit learners of all types (visual, auditory, kinesthetic etc) so for that to be recognised means a huge amount to me. One of my main focuses was to try and pre-empt any questions that viewers may have.
Best a320 FMS tutorial ever, very complete and helps!
I agree
gree
This really helps, I like the way you display the list of procedure and talk about what to do when there are complications. Thank you
You're welcome :) I aim to try and cover off any questions that people might have as I produce the video. So answer any questions before they're asked sort of thing
Well all I can say is that you're really good at it. Thank you for the reply!!! :)
Search up the charts eg EDDN charts.
@@Doofer911 what website did u use to find out the airways??
Where do you get your way points from pls.
Honestly one of the best tutorials ever. Whenever I watched flight simmers fly any a320 I thought it was complex and confusing to fly. Turns out it ain't. Keep it up, my dude!
Im so grateful for seeing a well done FMS tutorial on youtube for a intermediate like me on FSX, really like ur videos keep it up!
Glad to help!
After 5 years not playing your tutorial is making me want to revisit fsx again
Well Doofer, what can I say that hasn´t been said many times already, but I am going to say it anyway. I have been tempted for a long time to buy Aerosoft´s A321 but have been put off by the seeming complexity of setting it up. That was until I stumbled on your series of videos. So, yesterday I downloaded it and have completed 2 successful managed flights today, all thanks to YOU. I am 73 but you made it easy for me. Thank you so much.............Roger
Just came across your A320 tutorial videos. Thank you. I think these are the best I've ever seen: clear, detailed, well-structured.
Thank you very much for the kind words. A lot of careful planning and consideration went into scripting this series of videos.
When you talked about the "Init page" as a reminder you should add it's desirable to enter the ALTN airport, especially if you are flying in bad weather, or if you are unable to see the RWY on landing. Another note for passengers, fuel and flaps calculation. For this you can use the Aerosoft Airbus X fuel planner (Start menu-aerosoft-Airbus A320-321)
This was the best video i have ever seen on how to train someone with the MCDU.
A thumbs up just wasn't enough. Well done!
this was damn clear.
Wonderful explanation!
I am very grateful to you, not only for your splendid explanation, but also for your style of talking. Even though I am not a native English speaker, I managed to understand everything perfectly.
I have just subscribed to your channel.
Thank you again.
Great info again for flight simmers who are using the A320 for the first time which are not the same as a Boing so I'm sure they will be most grateful for the info you have given
Hey mate, I’ve followed every single video you posted and flew the same route, almost identically, but at one point at cruise, the nose began to go up and down and I gained about 1800ft in altitude, but then I realized that the 35000ft inputted didn’t have the little circle, so I did it again and everything went fine, I DID TURN THE SEAT BELT sign on Incase anyone felt unwell 😂
Really good tutorials, I’ll fly the reverse leg tomorrow to see how well I coped with the info, will vary the STAR into LTN though for variety
Thank you for making this video. I appreciated it!
You're welcome :)
More clear than water, tkx!
You're welcome :)
The MCDU was causing me a lot of a confusion!, this video really cleared it up!!
thanks man, really appreciate this tutorial .. i learnt a lot from this video.. my doubts are all cleared now.
I'm really glad the video could help, thanks for watching :)
You are a saviour !! Thank you for this and the other tutorials.
You're welcome, glad you liked the video!
Thanks Doofer. Them’s the breaks. That means that I will get more practice and become more like the maestro.
Wtf mate! That was amazing! Thank you so much! I'm just starting to learn how to do all the thing manually and this tutorial is super helpful. Take care.
Great tutorial and easy to follow. The only problem I had was on my end, my MCDU wouldnt show any SIDS which was really annoying. Keep it up man your a legend
I thought I'd never get my head around the MCDU thanks man!
great vid, first FMS video I've actually understood
Thanks for watching, glad the video could help :)
nice tutorial it shows the list at the right side .. makes it more understandable ..
I'm glad the effort that went into making it was worth it :)
I Have been looking for a plain and simple to follw vid for a long time and just found it, its clear and simple to understand and covers everthing thank you just what i was looking for, it helped me a great deal well done
Thanks for the kind words, I'm really glad the video could help :)
I never knew that there is a proffesion called "flight planner" and that there are airways and sound restrictions, that explains alot why planes dont just fly in straight line from a to b, thank you very much this was so interesting!
Very Informative and Well Explained
Thank You For Such A Beautiful Tutorial👍
thank you i couldnt understand what the airways were and was always confused that they didnt show up as waypoints!
This is so precious! I had no idea what is MDCU or Autopilot panel.... Thank you so much!
No problem, thanks for watching!
Ive just decided to give the aerosoft version a go after using Project Airbus for many years. I read (or at least started to read) the manual, then I found this video...thanks so much, absolutely crystal clear. I note you dont use the built-in atc, so would be interested if you have done a video on last minute changes in runway/approach at destination
Thank you very much, very helpfull.
You're welcome, thanks very much for watching :)
Very helpful considering I've had this plane for a while and never found a good video describing how to do some things AND know how they work and what they do. Thank you 👍😄
You're welcome, glad my video could help :)
I am studying very hard to come to grips with this marvellous technology. Thanks for an excellent tutorial.
You're welcome, glad my videos could help with your studying! :)
Best tutorial I ever saw on using MCDU ...I only fly in X plane .....but the features are very much alike I guess...thanks a lot
Oh my goodness, I am actually learning and taking it in. Thank you so much.
A really great explanation about the MCDU ,understood the systems well!
Glad it was helpful!
Seriously, the rest of the videos were wayyyyy too long in series, way too fast (why would I want to see it done in under 3 or 12 mins). YOU ARE A LEGEND SIR. HAPPY FLYING
Perfect description in details about MCDU thanks for the video.
u ´ve done extraordinary work mate! appreciate your help 2023
Once again, thank for taking the time and effort to make and post this informative video. It's really helpful knowing that I can enter the jetway into the scratchpad and have it predict the next waypoint. Thank you for pointing this one out. Once again, thanks for sharing.
Yeah that's a nifty little trick I picked up from another TH-camr, can't remember who it was unfortunately.
Thankyou for such an excellent video series,the aircraft doesn't seem so daunting after watching this.
Excellent video! I totally love the way you do these!
I'm glad, a lot of effort goes into these more detailed videos!

Hello, A really well produced video, and a great help in setting up the FF A320. Thank you.
Thanks for the kind comment, I'm glad this video helps even with A320's from other developers!
Your videos have been great. Interesting, to the point and easy to follow. Thanks for your efforts
Thank you so much. Amazing detail and calm presentation. Very useful.
THank you very much for taking the time to do this, it is very clear
I'm really glad, thanks for watching!
As far as I need with interesting details, Thanks
Thank you very much for this video! Best video of all!!!
very very very good, I fly the A32S and I wished I knew all of this before I started the type rating, DIFSRIP (data, init, f-pln, sec f-pln, rad nav, init B, perf) helps to remember the flow. Trip time may vary with winds aloft, you can insert them and it will give you a more accurate information or it can also indicate there's something wrong with the f-pln insertion and you may have inserted a wrong waypoint.
This is great. Thank you!
Turns out you need to have the PAX at 180 so all the passengers could board, but this video helped me alot, thanks!
Glad the video could help, thanks very much for watching! :)
clear and easy to understand. thanks a lot.
