Mmmm - OK Sir thanks.  Will continue to check.

Btw v2.4b4 is Fantastic!

For info: I just reproduced that engine shut down issue by pressing space bar.  The space key was by default
assigned to 'general action'.  I reassigned the space bar to 'None' in the Settings drop down.

Cheers to all

Re: ver 2.4 beta 4 WIN/MAC 64 bit

Sorted. Norton was deleting a win.xpl file each time i downloaded it, thinking it was a problem file. I saw Norton do it this time and restored the file and now its working. Hope this helps anyone else out that is having similar issues.

Re: ver 2.4 beta 4 WIN/MAC 64 bit

good day,
I have looked for this but I have not found the "button" so I think you generators are not set-up right or the de-iceing since, this is beyond my pay grade I have been looking in the books and have yet found the answer, but will keep researching ...

According to the FCOM Page 3 available at:

Once deployed the RAT can only be stowed on ground.

Re: ver 2.4 beta 4 WIN/MAC 64 bit

Did some flights recently, including visual approaches. Weather Conditions ranged from CAVOK to light rain combined with crosswind. In general the fbw performed well, even with wind drift included. Under normal weather conditions the fbw performed pretty stable - more than the original A320-FBW so far.

There is one think I would like to ask. Normally, it is not possible to fully extend spoilers above FL310 without Disconnecting the auto-pilot. Is there a way to add such a feature?

Re: ver 2.4 beta 4 WIN/MAC 64 bit

Do you have cinema verite enabled under the special options (or might be views)? That causes the slight shaking motion. Also try turning off head movement in the CDU.

The A320 is different in that regard compared to all the other family members (A318,A319 & A321).
When AP is on speed brakes are limited to 1/2 defelction, even though the lever is set to 3/4 or full. (You'll get a message on the ECAM about the positon mismatch).
If you're flying manually with speed brakes full and turn on the AP, the SEC will retract them to 1/2 position.

So your request is kind of in disagreement with real ops.

Re: ver 2.4 beta 4 WIN/MAC 64 bit

Thanks for information, Haui :-)

Wouldn´t it be wise to deactivate FO-Callout "Full Flaps" when

- auto pilot active and
- above FL 310

then?

I know, I am stressy ... This was just an idea to add more realism :-)

I recorded a new video last night and from the video you will see that once the FD is switched off the aircraft starts nodding.

Re: ver 2.4 beta 4 WIN/MAC 64 bit

Good day,
Nice video and yes the "nod" is there also the wind is going around in circles so when trying to work on an issue like this the developer need more than the "video" to find out what is going on how about a log.txt bbox_log.txt might also help then any one that looks at the video can also look at the data from the flight and reproduce the flight and see what is going on and give you an answer. but I would "guess" that it is in the downloaded weather //* METAR.rwx or the winds.rwx if you are using 10.40b4 but since i do not have the data to see I am only "guessing" hope this helps.
your friend,
captbullett

P.S. just like X-Plane asks for a some what detailed Bug report this also, should be followed on any forum for any 3rd party plugin for X-Plane aircraft or scenery pack then the developer can assist you better.
thank-you for your help

"Going around in circles"....adjust your cheeters there Captain, direction is fluctuating by 3-5 degrees around the time the FD is switched off.

Just took a look at your video and yes there is an issue and I do see what the issue is you are flying manually I do not fly manually   unless there is a reason to this like, at take-off.

Nevertheless, aircraft is meant to be flown using the AP until you are what about to land I would have to read again the manual but I usually do not take it out of AP until I have reverse thrust the engines on the ground and applied the breaks then the AP automatically disengages and then you go on about your way.

What are you contributing by posting this reply?

If you don't fly visual approaches "Captain", just refrain from commenting. Else you could attempt to reproduce yourself, complete with a log.txt,
"Wind going in circles" or otherwise.

Re: ver 2.4 beta 4 WIN/MAC 64 bit

Good day,
I have learned not to argue with people on the forums it is a waist of my time but when you  have an issue this is the right way to post the information so it is short and sweet for the Developer and anyone else to comment but I will never comment and when other people see your comments to me they probably will not help you either you cannot treat people bad on the forums when you are asking for help on one hand and cussing them on the other "."

below is a sample of the right way to post a //* Bug like a nod and since  eddiedee is a nube he has not seen the rules so it would be good if he did some reading first and then started to tell someone off but I will not help him any more. or post to his comments like he asked me to

Re: ver 2.4 beta 4 WIN/MAC 64 bit

It is necessary to place the information on the continuation of the work and 320 plans. There are plans for the implementation of the navigation display flight plan акщь 330 ещ 320. However, perhaps you know there is a problem in the 330 with CTD on MAC. If we take a piece of code from 330, this problem will be on 320. But we can not lose MAC OS users, sure. Therefore, we must first solve the problem of 330 and get code what worked w/o problems. We are working on it together with LR and SASL developers. While there is no result, but we continue to try and test, try different solutions. Just for info.

Re: ver 2.4 beta 4 WIN/MAC 64 bit

Good day,
The information I posted above was only to show how to post a bug report not for the information inclosed and not to confuse the issue between the data between the A320 and the A330 this is why the rules are so important on the forum.

Since, I was trying to help with the issue at hand the X-Pilot did not realize that he was talking to a Mac platform tester and an Apple Developer and I was trying to point out to him how to post a proper post so, that he could get the help that he needed.

Nevertheless, I was cursed at in the most polite way and I will not help him any more since he made it clear he does not want my help. 

The TDPlane was only an example not for information on the issue at hand TDPlane is a "Privileged" member of JAR and knows how to do a proper Bug post, My hat is off to him for setting up such a quick and uniform way to send a Bug report.

Sometimes when at the Gate & preparing for a flight, the GPU &  fuel truck will not activate.  Is this a known problem?

Hello! I have problem with auto thrust. After touchdown, when you set the reverse thrust,increase the throttle to the max power. Airbus A320neo ver. 2.3 r4.
