X-plane wouldn’t be what it is if Austin couldn’t delegate and make the platform open to 3rd parties. Austin is an expert in flight modeling and he’s probably picked up a lot through his work on Xavion but he can’t also be an expert in the avionics of all Airbus models. There’s just way too much detail
Airbus didn't invent the term scratchpad, I don't think he is acting very much. Scratchpad is a common term for free text entry in any FMS or FMS derivative.@@TimAyro
This was so helpful, thank you! I felt that Austin perfectly embodied a newbie (like me) and asked lots of questions. Philipp was a great instructor. Much appreciated!
Austin asking the real questions about the Airbus. Great stuff! Should do one on Zibo mod next. The more detailed the better and even as someone who's flown ToLiss for years, I learned stuff there :)
I definitely prefer the realism your going for now. This is awesome to see you learning how most of us sim in your simulation. You should check out the Zibo mod for the 737-800.
What a wonderful video, Austin so eager to learn and never afraid to say he doesn't know something - the hallmark of a great person! Philipp is a great instructor!
To make a good guide you need two people: one that knows everything and can easily answer any question and the other one who will ask as many questions as possible. 😁 That was interesting and helpful, thanks.
Thank you Austin so much for making this video and especially for asking so many questions. As a newbie a cannot thank you enough for not being like the most sim or aviation guys out there who just go quickly over stuff because they know it already. I've learnt so much from this, so once again, thank you!
I ❤ Xplane... Best FLIGHT sim (for me). The Laminar team does hard work , everyone of them! I ❤ these episodes and how the they do the PR. Simply the best.
Austin’s such a kick! Phillip was the one that let me demo the beta version of X-plane VR in Germany many moons ago. He was just a young whipper snapper back then and hadn’t started flight school yet. You’ve come a long way Phillip! Thanks for the fun video. Tho it’s a great aircraft, my favorite is the 737. Cheers! 😊
We need a video of Austin flying the Toliss A321N or the A340 in XP12 now. I know GA is his baby and he generally eschews airliners (and lets others deal with them), I feel like his mind would be blown by the level of detail and systems depth in some of the planes that are out now. You could also show him the CL650. Great vid.
You clearly don't know Austin then. He's famously hyper focused and if he doesn't need to know something for his work or just interests he doesn't know it. Austin has been famously rather bored with airliners in the past so not surprising at all that he's ignorant how a MCDU works.
Loved seeing Austin yawning just like a real Airbus driver would. All that automation will lull you to sleep. Remember, flying is 99% boredom............1% sheer terror. Lol
Well if you want more excitement, just pull those flight computer fuses above your head like Airbus test pilots do :) In DIRECT law, you can fly the buses like a Cessna. They're well behaved and quite dynamic for a much larger plane. And the excitement won't stop after landing and parking, you'll have to face your employer and might be looking for a new job :)
Generally, we’d bang the route in, and then check it, rather than going back and forth to the Temp FltPln at every stage of input - generally much faster to do that. (Though in reality the route is usually downloaded via Datalink rather than being put in manually - departures and arrivals aside). But this’ll work.
Great to see Austin and friend having fun. Very interesting and informative video ..cheers! X-Plane 12 is awesome....Looking forward to the next big update. X-Plane 12.1.0 (graphics!). Keep up the great work guys!
Meanwhile, there's a queue behind the A320 waiting for runway 25! Seriously though, very useful tutorial... especially for someone who only knows the Boeing FMC.
Hi Phillip - thanks for this (and all the amazing work you, Austin and the rest of the team do on X-Plane). The performance calculator you showed needs the CG entered in %MAC, but the weight and balance settings page in X-Plane only shows it in inches or centimeters. How do I translate that to %MAC for the A330? Thanks.
Outstanding tutorial and thanks for making it. Phillip had me cracking up with his sound effects (whoop!). Oh, little did the passengers know traveling to their destination on this flight. Or just maybe, they did. "Stewardess, bourbon please. Make that two!!" 😁
I always make sound effects for my students. It's my trademark... Ask Roman (founder of FlightFactor) - he was my student for real life instrument, commercial, and flight instructor certificates.
I kept wondering why the MCDU was not showing the speed/alt. on the F-PLN. Apparently the solution (not shown in the video or in the MCDU Manual) is to go to the second page in INUIT and press the select-keys next to ZFMC/ZFW and BLOCK to input the information. Speed/Alt. then show in the F-PLN.
Hope they fix the A330 for XP12 I flew fenix A320 for MSFS and many other AIRBUS like toliss etc and the autopilot never disconnect and this A330 for XP12 many times disconnect really this is a bug and hope you guys can fix it
I imagine that you can buy one much cheaper used, particularly if you want something like a 727 sim, or a DC-10 or something else that would be in less demand in the real world. My airline tried to give away their old 727 simulators - got no takers except one air museum. As to the modern Level D simulators with 6DOF motion and wrap around visual, those are probably repurposed as other airplane types.
Look how stable the engines are at cruise. Now go and look at the A333, Toliss A320/321/346, FF 767s, SSG 748. None of them has a halfway decent auto-throttle. Other than that, it's great to see the 'real' thing works just like the sims ;-)
Well most of what you typed I agree with but the Toliss is by far the closest to the real engine interaction and how the Airbus veriants actually operate and fly like. As a testament a few of my friends who fly Airbus series aircraft for American Airlines, easyJet, and JetBlue. Multiple have said they use the Toliss products for recurrence practice as it's just like the simulators they use.
To be fair, this was a flight _with virtually no wind at all_. 1 to 2 kts winds at cruise is basically no wind at all. Sometimes IRL (and in X-Plane) you get 70-90 kts winds at cruising altitudes.
@@toquita3d It really doesn't matter, there shouldn't be significant changes in throttle unless something really significant is happening fast, or there's a persistent error in achieved speed. That's what PID controllers are for. No pilot of a manual throttle aircraft is sawing at the throttle all the time. Autothrottle should achieve better stability than a good pilot can.

I love it how Austin is open if he doesn't know something, especially in an area he specializes in, in aeronautics!
He's acting here. He knows how to do it, hence him being the first person to call it scratchpad lol

This was better than any flight simming tutorial. Learned so much in this
Austin You need to implement the Cost Index on the A330! Its a glaring omission I'm surprised still hasn't been addressed!

Thank you Austin for keeping it as simple as possible for us and have a great 2024......................🥳
Whatever happened to not interrupting people who are speaking? The talking over each other was over the top.
Great job flying and landing!
It's amazing how a C172 G1000 is so much simpler and intuitive.
well duh...much simpler aircraft too. And mind you, the A320 is 36+ years old

EIS1 is beautiful
Ikr. I saw the video and was thinking - ancient CRT technology. I’d never seen one with EIS1 until I got into a United 320 flight deck.
A very helpful video, but they seem to indicate that the Flight Director is controlling the aircraft before the AP is turned on.
What center console can interfere with the slats if removed? -Why I need a center console
12.08rc3: after filling up F-PLN, the previously entered CRZ LVL in INIT page disappears.. .
You need to go to LEVEL D simulator to finish your flight then 😂😂😂
yesterday in a piper Aerostar i flew from long beach airport to big bear city in Xplane12
Also the manual that follows this video mentions getting info from the EFB. Does the A330 have an EFB?
Excellent video. Learnt a lot.
Please add the kc 390 Millenium to xplane mobile.
Why is the cockpit so bright? To make it look like X-Plane all lights should be turned off.

Didn't know this could run on XP12!
Great video , Thx for sharing
Does anybody know the site for performance calculations that Philipp was talking about?
where is the link for the performance website?
How can any Airline still stick to Boeing?
Tell us your going to put that link of the performance calculator in here but I sure don't see it.
When coms the 12.1 Update ?
Unexpected that Austin was so noob with FMS/C. Hope theres other on Laminar that drive on getting good FMS. The default B737 needs a serious overhaul.
Just get the Zibo!
When will x plane 12.1.0 release?

why no vids in 4 months?
