Bless you...

Thank you for this I enjoyed watching it.

[@gogoasaa9606]

May I ask why the lower ECAM is rotating? xD

[@leonidasg0039]

Hello, can I ask you something, at 3:32 at DADON waypoint, shouldn't you change the wind altitude from FL370 to FL390 since there is a step climb there?

[@leeaf7]

Airbus FCOM states: "Entering a new altitude, over an existing altitude, replaces that existing altitude at all cruise waypoints. Any winds entered at the overwritten altitude are lost at all cruise waypoints." There are two ways to prevent this from happening: 1. Create two cruise wind data lines (370/390) beginning from the first waypoint on the cruise phase - which requires double amount of typing when you are already rushing for an on-time departure 2. or Enter all wind data on single cruise wind line (FL370) and let the computer extrapolate the wind for you at FL390 - which isn't the most accurate but good enough for a 5 hour flight. The choice is yours.

@@leeaf7 Thank you for your clear reply! So I guess entering wind data on the mcdu is something you only do in long flights right? Do A320 pilots do it too?

[@leeaf7]

Regardless of flight time, accurate wind information is always helping. However, it is generally agreed upon by professional pilots that longer flight segments require even more accurate wind information to predict fuel burn along the way. This particular company I used to work for was a cheap-ass company that didn't bother to buy an AOC wind upload function for a brand new airplane. Thus pilots had to type in pretty much everything when you were crunching for an on-time departure. What we have been instructed by training guys was to enter the average trip wind on INIT-A page and then once you get airborne with our task saturation deescalated, start uploading wind data corresponding with each waypoint (you have all the time you need once you reach your cruise altitude). Not an ideal solution to the root cause, but on-time departures were much more critical to this particular company especially for training flights.

@@leeaf7 I see... Your hand was indeed moving pretty fast, you seem used to the procedure haha! Your previous company is Korean right?

[@deborshikashyap6745]

Awesome video but could you please tell me what is cruise wind,,,, is cruise wind referring to speed

[@PilotJuanCarlos]

Is the wind at the cruise altitude.

[@ctdesing]

Thank You.

[@Mateyhv1]

Wasnt that some crazy typing!

[@mrcodbeast4718]

How do you enter example 50n60w coordinates into the FMGS?

[@alphalock1]

5000.0N/06000.0W

앗 저 지금 FMS 수업때 배우는데 넘 어려워요 ㅠㅠㅠ

What’s the box above the MCDU please?

[@paulgui5054]

poilteye zurich-miami,they mentioned that.

[@RocketAnthem]

A DCDU

[@chryssemansmilanes7304]

CPDLC i think

[@raony362]

It would be the CPDLC

[@royrached6668]

That was scary

using LBS instead of KG?

[@DownForceful]

you type very fast broo, saluutee

Yun Jin Lee 오른쪽패널누르는데부기장이겠죠..

[@adriansikora6556]

MCDU is the correct word!

[@leeaf7]

Both terms can be correct I'd say. FMGES (or FMGS) consists of FMGCs, FCU, and MCDUs. MCDU and FCU would be interface units to prepare the FMGES to work correctly for a specific flight.
