Airbus A321

Nope! 990 knots ?? where are you seeing that info? If you are past FTL300 and heading for a higher cruise altitude, you should be at MACH instead of KIAS anyway.

 

Now all of that changes if you are flying a 707 and you are "Flight 33". When you reached 990 knots, did you see any flashes of light and if you looked out the cockpit windows did you see any dinosaurs?

mrzippy yes sorry KIAS 900 something, get overspeed and not even at FTL300. This happens without my interaction

 

Maybe something in the aircraft.cfg file

 

Is this the default A-321 aircraft or one that you downloaded from somewhere? I have never had a problem with any, be it default or 3rd party freeware.

I'm not terribly familiar with the Airbus model line. But I will admit "KIAS 900 something" should probably be setting off at least some overspeed indications. :p

I download it from the Rikoooo site. A321 by Francois Dore

 

And there you have it! I have tried some of those Rikooo airbuses and some are kinda funky. Probably some screw ups in the FDE.

Mrzippy you know where I can download a working 3rd party airbus or nice reprints. If it is possible free ones. I like to have A318, A319, A321, A340, A350, A380

 

Start here and look through the File Library.

I would start with the A320 with Dore's series. Above 25,000 feet it will automatically switch to Mack. It comes with a long manual and if you want to learn you must read it. They are fun to flight once you learn all the quirky peculiarities.

 

Cheers,

Mabe5454 I do have A320 from Dore but whille flying the speed increases on it's own to top speed. I then have to disengage auto throttle to decrease speed to get rid of over speed. Can it be something in the aircraft.cfg file. Mrzippy mentioned something about FDE.

Not in this case, they don't need it. All of them (18, 19, 20, 21) work fine and they behave differently as per their size. Sorry but read the manual and I know is a little bit long especially on details.

I have downloaded the following file from AVSIM and followed the install instruction to the letter https://library.avsim.net/esearch.php?DLID=&Name=airbus+a321&FileName=&Author=francois+dore&CatID=root (Airbus A321 FD-FMC version 1.20 FSX and P3D). But I miss the following.

 

https://library.avsim.net/sendfile.php?Location=AVSIM&Proto=file&ImageID=420755 ND with Radar terrain (TAWS)

https://library.avsim.net/sendfile.php?Location=AVSIM&Proto=file&ImageID=420754 this page is missing from the checklist gauge

 

Did I maybe miss something.

I wonder if it's talking about this because it's on the ND or Navigation Display? I'm on the ground so no GS or any AI aircraft it the area.

mrzippy if you go the link I provided and scroll down to Airbus A321 FD-FMC version 1.20 FSX and P3D you will find .jpg links showing gauges coming with this package but after installation some of the gauges are not in the package as I tried to explained in my post above.

 

If I understood you correctly the ND will show the terrain as per link provided when I am in the air.

Did the download for that A-321 but my antivirus says it contains a Trojan and will not let it run.

I found that airbus elsewhere once. Maybe the one on avsim. Probably in a thread here by the creator.

As I remember it's not as simple to fly as the default aircraft. You really have to read the manual.

For example, it has a working fmc.

 

(I didn't try the plane/fmc myself. I was learning the freeware Ifly fmc at the time.)

This is the thread the creator of that plane started here to announce it:

https://www.flightsim.com/vbfs/showthread.php?293790-Project-Airbus-A320-FD-FMC-release

 

Yes, I do remember that link but I never took that route since I do not care for FMC's that much. Hence, I prefer the Rikoooo Airbuses by F. Dore where I have a saying in the flying. Also I am in favor of the MSFS ATC and GPS navigation and not so much for SID & START.

 

Cheers,
