Single Engine Taxi | Engine Start | REAL Airbus Pilot Training | MsFs2020 | A320 Neo

Welcome to episode 2 of the Airbus Training series, In this video we pick up where we left off in video 1 "ready for pushback." We will now push off the gate start up and head to the runway.
In this episode we will cover
- Hydraulics
-Single Engine Taxi
-Engine Starting
-Flight control checks
The goal of this lesson is to give you a thorough explanation on why its recommended to start the #1 engine first during a single engine taxi, and show you how to properly execute this technique and get the airplane ready for takeoff.

I know this video is about 2 years old, but it's absolutely amazing. I watch hundreds of a320 tutorials, nothing to compair. Your the best of the show. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. You have a new subscriber from France.

[@cleareddirectfubar5309]

I love how you not only tell us how to perform tasks, but the reasons why we do things in a certain way. Thanks, V1!

[@bravotangosierra6518]

Loved all the hydraulics explanation!! Always learning new things with these videos. Keep it up!

[@V1Sim]

Awesome, that’s the goal! Thank you

[@FlyGuy1]

Amazing. Every. Time. I truly respect your work and how much you have taught me and many, many others about flying, and how much fun it is. Keep it coming, you are truly amazing!

[@concerned-cyclist]

Thank you so much for this series of video's. Absolute perfect timing for me as i've just got MSFS 2020. Great content that's easy to follow. Please keep up the great work.

[@ChristopherDrieberg]

Thank you so much for this series. Amazing tutorial. They are all very enjoyable to listen and follow. I wish, one day, that I can get hold of the checklists that are used. Thank you again.

[@brunogasperin]

Thank you for this amazing video. This is pure gold. Cheers!

Your very welcome!

[@fernandonunogoncalves]

Thank you V1. The best tutorial I have seen until now.

[@V1Sim]

Wow, thanks!

[@Sulynn707]

Thanx for numbering videos!

[@Antoine-Zim]

Thanks for sharing the knowledge on A320. Impressive and comprehensive tutorial. Great content.keep it up

[@hermanronk]

It's videos like this that got me back in to flight-sims, first X-Plane and now MSFS. Thank you for creating this content, and please continue doing so :)

[@V1Sim]

Glad to hear, your very welcome. More will continue to come!

[@dicko6833]

Superb clear instructions, love your videos. Looking forward to the Autopilot, constraints lesson

[@voytekcyvr1936]

Crystal clear explanation what to do and why. Great video!

[@V1Sim]

Thank you! That was the goal 😉

[@jrmusic7316]

These videos are amazing. Thank you so much for such quality work. I can now understand better the simulation in the A320.

[@V1Sim]

Thanks! That’s my goal

[@AviationMaster]

Loving these videos. Bring me new Airbus knowledge! Thanks!

[@V1Sim]

Glad you like them!

[@sehamstein]

Great video as usual! I love that you're teaching the internet the truth of which engine to start first

[@V1Sim]

Haha thanks man!

[@musica1243]

This guy is awesome....Love the videos

I appreciate that! Thank you very much

[@SouvikMukherjeeACFCOD]

I loved your explanation of why Engine 1 is started, though the PTU Barking Noise could have had better audio mixing heheh

[@V1Sim]

Lol funny thing is I did make it better, then uploaded the wrong version 😂 andndidnt want to wait for another upload

[@davewaterman1560]

Thanks for the great video again. Do you have a good link for a set of checklists or abbreviated checklists that could be printed? Or would you consider making some? Or am I being daft and they are all in the sim? Not used the 320 much yet and watching your videos in preparation.

[@captainalgar4897]

In Vueling when we do single engine depp we set crossbleed to open and pack 2 off additionally regarding the apu bleed the main reason you don't want to use it, is bc you will suck engine's exhaust which is not nice. Also it is important to crhono the time engine1 and 2 have run before take off

[@andrewpel2134]

absolutly fantastic, please checklist if its posible. thank youu

[@salokin1]

Thanks, teacher, from the UK. Hope it's also getting your thoughts in order for re-commencement of operations!

[@V1Sim]

Thank you!

[@mr.martintorres5804]

Great info here. One question though, at 11:03 you began your taxi. At what phase in the flow do you request your taxi clearance from ATC?

[@ramsfan1812]

Great video! Is this airplane study level yet or still choppy?

[@andresbanrevi7506]

Amazing. Would be nice to have a checklist to download

[@mr.martintorres5804]

MSFS does have a built in checklist. The flow may be different from this video mainly because real world pilots typically follow their own airlines procedures.

[@almoghtarib333]

Grate video like always ,can I ask what add on is the cabin announcement please

[@V1Sim]

this is the Dev version of the FlyByWire mod! So addons used other than the plane itself.

[@almoghtarib333]

@@V1Sim Thanks a lot very helpful

[@pierrehiol1123]

and cool

[@vedikjayaraj8351]

might be a long answer to this, but how do your usual flight shifts work? do you go to a destination and fly back the same day? or after a few days?

[@EmilioGameair]

Does the single engine taxi procedure for MSFS 2020 on this video apply also for FSX?

[@tomstravels520]

So what’s the reason why you still do eng 1 first even if it’s not a single engine taxi? The reason in Europe for number 2 start first seems to be to have the parking brake immediately available after pushback is complete incase the other engine hasn’t been started yet

[@dynasty0019]

Hey Cap, do you have any plans to get the Thrustmaster TCA Airbus Quadrant with the spoiler and flap levers add-on for your flights?

[@V1Sim]

I am still undecided, I might! Once stock and prices return to normal I might consider it just for the Airbus

[@hotshot4512]

LEAP-1A has best fuel light off sound ever - you can't tell me there's a better one out there :)

[@V1Sim]

It’s pretty good! I won’t deny that And I’m a PW fan 😉

[@CMBelite-FR]

nice video: 1) Can you get the ATIS from VATSIM ? 2) is it normal that with 2 engines taxi at 19% N1; the plane accelerates like crazy ? seems unrealistic 3) is it normal that with 1 engine taxi, you need over 35-40% N1 to accelerate and over 30% to maintain the speed 4) the engines need at least to run for 2 min at least before setting TO power, correct ? 5) for 1 taxi engine aftert landing, the engine needs a cooldown of 3 min minimum before shutting them ? thanks :)

[@keithb816]

Hey now, hope you had a good day back.

[@V1Sim]

Thank you! It was good to be back

[@beau4690]

hi there!

[@hflx]

The famous dog barking is actually the PTU ....

[@faizalabizar4477]

is that ptu works from eng1 to yellow line hyd? somehow i try in a32nx, the eng no 1 cant flow hyd to yellow line. Only eng no 2 can flow hyd to green line with ptu. is that normal??

[@tomstravels520]

PTU works both ways

[@silwerston]

What is the purpose of the single engine taxi when we increase ENG1 degradation so that it does not warm up well before runway?

[@tomstravels520]

Saves fuel. And you start the second engine so that it runs for at least 2 minutes to warm up

[@leoarjuncrasto]

What is the limitation of single engine taxi for CEO and NEO? 1)Is there a limitation on Gross weight? 2) is there a time limitation as in, we can't do single engine taxi if the airplane was on ground for 2 hrs or 5hrs

[@tomstravels520]

Not on slippery runways, must be done to allow for second engine to have about a 2 minute time to run after start, not on taxiways with any slopes and not for very high gross weights. And if it’s less than a 10 minute taxi time not much point doing it

[@hash2all]

How much N1 would you use while single engine taxiing? I always find hard to turn

[@tomstravels520]

No more than 40% N1 (not sure what EPR equivalent is)

[@thomascrotti311]

How is it with the fuel, how can I balance it, when ENG 1 burnes more?

[@tomstravels520]

It would take quite a while for the balance to become a concern but you can always cross feed if it does

[@academicaviation4436]

How do you know when to start eng 2 in different airports

[@tomstravels520]

Typically if you’re going to taxi less than 10-15 mins you’d start both engines

[@schillaci5590]

Just joined a company with SE taxi out procedures. I have to unlearn 15 years of starting no. 2 first and 2 engine taxi.

[@tomstravels520]

So you always do 1 engine taxi? I can only assume because of the size of the airports

[@schillaci5590]

@@tomstravels520 Generally at the larger airports or where you are parked on one side and the departure runway is on the other side of the airport. Also for taxiing in. Some times the gate is occupied and you have to wait. Might as well shut one down.

[@tomstravels520]

@@schillaci5590 do you have a GW limit of when you can use it?
