Welcome Me!! ^_^

[SWAFO]

I like you're way of thinking, but unfotunately it's sadly wrong! I've put my life at the hands of a Boeing aircraft nearly daily for almost 15
years now (Forget about the McDonnel Douglas merger, etc.... You get the point). I would never switch to an Airbus, unless FORCED AT
GUNPOINT to do so!

That's happens quite often here in the US (although not with our airline system), so there's a possibility I may be flying Airbus' someday!

(Is the plural form Airbus' or Airbuses? Note that I've been saying "Airbus aircraft" instead of having to try the plural form... lol)

[fanshaobing]

Oh! hehe you are right! Each airbus is almost same. But there is a small diffrent things about each if you can see close. But you are right,
only very small diffrent. But I want to have a very genuine 320 panel/cockpit that was build FOR 320 Airbus airplane for flight simulator with
correct configurate.

I did not notice your words in each of your posts! You are real also and fly 737! That is fantastic!!!! China Southern uses 737 also but
almost the Boeing 737NG airplanes. And you also are a pilot for USA Airforce! Thats great!! I am so so sorry if I upset you! I think both
Boeing and Airbus is great actually! Each has some advantage.

Let us all try and have a friendly atmosphere.

I get it brad you just dont trust us software engineers thats it aint it. HEY DAN U READIN THIS.

Fantastic!

Now, we have an Airbus pilot and a Boeing pilot!

That's great, because "someone" has to help Brad to find a cure to his euroareobusophibia...

BTW, I can't see how a 340 panel can be use in a 320, since the 340 has 4 engines and the 320 only two. I suppose Brad's illness affect
also his vision, since he didn't notice those "others" aircrafts in the real world

Welcome Peter!

The PSS Airbus is probably the most realistic available, however, it is not free.

I use the Ken Mitchell panel and love it. While it misses a few things from the 320, it still is a good, freeware representation.

[Dutch64]

Sorry Peter, we should have warned you for Brad But it's ok, he's not dangerous

If you want to get close to reality go for the PSS series from phoenix simulation software. (Or maybe A320 PIC)
Some freeware panels are nice but they all lack a good implementation of the MCDU, essential for the airbus imho.
The A380 sims out there now looks ok but also no working mcdu so for the serious 'as real as it gets' simmer there is not much i'm
afraid, I'm stuck with PSS because at least their panels and functionality offered by it are the best available these days.

Welcome Fanshaobing to our home from home.

Welcome to FsP Fanshaobing... I hope you enjoy your time with FsP as well as the FsP community... in my opiniun they are the friendliest and most
helpful around.

Unfortianately I havent seen a very good Airbus thus far and hope to find one in the future... so if you find one let us know as i'm sure many would
also like to fly the A320 now and then.

[SWAFO]

I always try to keep a friendly atmosphere. Although, note that I'm a Marine... I was never in the Air Force. Perhaps you don't understand
about this one (and I'm not trying to be rude), however the Marine Corp Aviation unit is MUCH different than the Air Force. I guess you
have to understand the US military structure to really understand how it works.

Although, it's great we have an Airbus pilot on here now! The extra knowledge will be very appreciated!

Thanks for your kind words, and welcome to the forum!

[ILikePlanes]

and previously flew F/A-18's for the Marines.

you flew F/A-18's?? Nice!! I want to fly the F-22 in the airforce because they're so cool

P.S. what is different about the airforce and marine corp aviation unit and airforce???

[SWAFO]

Yep, sure did! I flew the F/A-18D (the two seat version). The F-22 is a neat looking aircraft, however from my understanding it's
quite "wimpy" when it comes to ordnance capabilities. I like something that can carry a hell of a lot of mud moving tools

(I.E. F/A-18's, F-15's, and to a lesser extent; the F-16's).

The F-22's carry everything internally from my understanding. Is this right? I haven't flown a F-18 in over 3 years now, so I'm a little rusty
on the operation of them. If you've got any questions, I'd be happy to try and answer though! Three years isn't THAT long. I flew them for
around 11-12 years, so no problems there!

Welcome to the forum, Peter!

Jealous, eh? Is that U.G.L.Y. an acronym? What does it mean?

[Jetsgo]

U-Undeniably ugly!
G-Great, for winning ugly contests!
L-Looks great! In ugly compitition!
Y-Yuck, military planes are ugly!

Ugly

Seriously though, I prefer airliners .

[TonyH]

Welcome, Peter. You'll find the PSS A320 here http://www.phoenix-simulation.co.uk , but it's payware, you'll definitely need to steal your credit
card back.

Do you fly for China Southern ? Which routes ?
