[@SachchidanandaCoomaraseamy]

I am a retired flight captain your explanation are so nice and very understanding thank you for the lessons for the younger generation who are keen on flying

[@acewisdom7818]

Giving this out for free is indeed priceless. Much appreciated 🙏

[@waypointsaviation]

Thank you! Glad you like our videos

[@parfreert9389]

I´ll be doing my MCC on the A320 in the future ,and i can safely say that this channel is the best starting point for anyone wanting to learn the basics of the beautiful A320. Keep up with the amazing job and content ! Cheers from Portugal

[@waypointsaviation]

Your kind words truly inspires me. To be honest, comments like yours are what personally motivate me. However, I would appreciate hearing your thoughts on how I can better serve you and our dear community of aviators.

[@waypointsaviation]

if you need in the future some extra sessions. you know where to find us 😉

[@parfreert9389]

You already teach us so much about the A320, but the cherry on top of the cake would be an "line focused" explanation about the systems of the aircraft, because its something that not many people are able to explain it, and i think you would be the perfect pilot to spread a little bit of your knowledge about it. But has i said ,you already do an amazing job by giving us such detailed and easy to comprehend videos. Thanks once again for your master piece work @@waypointsaviation 😃

[@rashid37009]

I just started my sim training and was worried to find a good tutorials. You resolved my issue. Thanks

[@waypointsaviation]

Thanks, glad to be of service! All the best with your training

[@glennpollitt1900]

Love your video , don't normally comment on such things, fun delivery, well articulated , learnt more in 20 mins than I have in 20 days with others, unfortunately, I am to far away to experience your in situ training

[@waypointsaviation]

Thank you so very much for your comment, it really means a lot to us and encourages us to make more videos. If there is anything more specific you’d like us to teach on the A320 please let us know we’d be honored to make a video about it.

[@norpilot4293]

I'm going for Airbus 340 type rating at the end of the month. Reading this stuff from FCOM is not that easy. This video is helping a lot! Thank you for your great explanation and perfectly made video! You gained a new sub. Keep these videos coming brother!

[@shagenganason2586]

Thank you! One of the best tutorial on how to set up the A320. I am not a pilot but a flight sim enthusiast and this is fantastic!

[@waypointsaviation]

Glad you enjoyed it, thank you for your positive comment.

[@brickteller5462]

Awesome tutorial! Love the energy and enthusiasm in your voice, this was real fun. And I had no idea the QRH had that handy list for the SOP's! I was super confused trying to make sense of the order in which everything is done by following only the FCOM. You are a life saver! Thanks a lot!

[@waypointsaviation]

Thanks so much for taking the time to comment, glad you find our videos useful

[@makepeacenuttall1388]

Thank you for an excellent tutorial, light hearted and informative. Will watch the rest now I have found you - subscribed and liked !

[@waypointsaviation]

That's Brilliant! Thank You for Subscribing! Hope you continue to enjoy our content. We're currently on Episode 2 of an Around the world tour in an Airbus A320 starting with the Middle East. Come along for the ride :)

[@Capt_Sid]

I love this video. As someone who’s going to start training soon on the 320, this is very helpful! Thank you! ❤

[@waypointsaviation]

Thank you for your kind words, and we’re very glad the video helped you, and wish you well on your new journey to flying the A320! Keep in mind we also offer a pre-type rating course in Dubai in our sim which helps pilots master the A320 before they even start type-training. Feel free to contact us for more info or if you know anyone who’s interested

[@Godbless520]

Thank you very much for your videos, I haven’t flown for more than three years, due to pandemic, and since 2022, Airbus developed new flows, there are some changes, your video is really helpful.

[@waypointsaviation]

Glad you find them helpful! Anything specific we can let us know.

[@J-L_Pilot]

I like the way you take the time to demonstrate those things, a lot easier to understand, Thanks

[@waypointsaviation]

That’s the kind of feedback we need so we can improve 😁✌🏽

[@bryannegrijn1908]

Great video. Thanks for taking the time to post!

[@waypointsaviation]

Thanks! It’s our Pleasure! 🙏🏽

[@bobhatcher5505]

Excellent Tutorial, thank you so much for your work!

[@waypointsaviation]

Glad it was helpful!

[@trailtales97TV]

Lovely video and informative walkthrough! Heading for my type rating later this year and this channel has given me confidence and a super introduction to the A320, cheers!

[@AviationShots._]

Love your videos so much!! So much knowledgeable!!

[@waypointsaviation]

Thanks! Grateful for your comment and having you part of the community! :)

[@pilottamas05]

Nice video as always!Can you demonstrate how does the radio navigation works?It would be brilliant seeing how to communicate to the ATC and the cabin !Have a nice day,thank you!

[@afihaileywibowo1095]

Really appreciate these videos. Thank you!

[@kiwinesss]

Awesome, thank you so much for this, I will watch the whole series. And subscribe of course :)

[@lovelife1774]

Its very good video leaned a lot

[@waypointsaviation]

Thanks! Glad you liked the video!

[@arnaudDR400]

Thank you sir for all this! Are we going to get employed by Emirates after that? :) I wish it would be the case!

[@waypointsaviation]

Lol, I wish! But... it will give you then knowledge you need to become proficient in the Airbus.

[@AJMidnight007]

Amazing teaching aid! Hopefully, someday soon will be using it in real life

[@waypointsaviation]

Thank you so much! Wishing you all the best on that journey!

[@VirtualFlightTraining]

Hi, great video. 6:05 the ptu should be off for at least 40s here during cargo ops

[@kalinin813]

It is all what I need :)

[@c.a.q]

Highly appreciate! 👍

[@Enzo_Nuna]

Could you tell me where to get the checklist please 😊

[@waypointsaviation]

images.app.goo.gl/YxsXaxjzDzeHqjKP8

[@HubAir71]

Could you please tell me if you always make a cargo smoke fire test when you make the other fire test like APU or engine when you prepare the plane ? Thanks a lot ! 😎

[@waypointsaviation]

Usually no, we just perform the APU & Engine Fire Test during pre-flight, the Cargo smoke sensors perform their own test when powered on and let us know via the ECAM if something is wrong... Hope this helps... :)

[@USA-rb3dk]

Plz update with this with latest checks and procedures techniques and add flow patterns

[@waypointsaviation]

These ARE the latest procedures and checks currently in use… which ones are you referring to?

[@wvijay]

Sooooper good

[@waypointsaviation]

Thank you very much!

[@TheWanderingEwe]

Amazing job

[@kiwinesss]

I have a question, well actually 2 questions. Does the clock automatically adjust to the new time zone when flying into a new zone? Or does it have to be changed manually? And the second question is; When tuning the radio, or actually any of the instruments, is it automatically adjusted on the other side, that is the 1st lieutenant's side as well?

[@waypointsaviation]

Hello, Thanks for your comments, let's answer your questions, 1) We only use 1 Time Zone which is Zulu time (GMT Time) this way regardless of where we are in the world we only reference Zulu time to help stay coordinated. 2) Yes, whenever I make any changes in my MCDU it automatically changes on the FOs MCDU, however, QNH Settings and ND Screens are individually adjusted for each side.

[@kiwinesss]

@@waypointsaviation Thanks for the fast reply. That all sounds pretty logical I guess. Cheers.

[@RSNorris-z1b]

Should you have the seat belts lights on before refuelling .

[@waypointsaviation]

Hello Quite the opposite, during fueling procedure has us keep the seat belt signs off and cabin crew should advice passengers that fueling is under process, this is so in the event evacuation is required it would be quicker for passengers to get out of their seats and escape.

[@RSNorris-z1b]

Oh just you put them on @@waypointsaviation

[@13yearsoldvatsimpilot]

@@RSNorris-z1b that is incorrect @waypointsaviation is correct.

[@allangabriel5444]

Question ? Does the external power provide electrical and pneumatic pressure ?

[@waypointsaviation]

Hey Allan External power provides electrical power only, if you want pneumatic pressure from an external source it comes from a ground air unit which is a separate connection and source to external power. Hope this helps :)

[@allangabriel5444]

Sorry for that. I seen that you switched to APU power

[@waypointsaviation]

@@allangabriel5444 no apologies necessary. :) and yes we start the APU which can be a source of power as well until the main engines are turned on but primarily the apu would work as a source of pneumatic air for air conditioning as well as engine start. Let’s put this way, I’ll use external power to power the Electricals and start the apu and use the apu for air conditioning. Once I’m ready to push back and start engines I’ll disconnect the external power and switch to using the apu for both external and pneumatic

[@CrazyPlayer-pf2hv]

Is this meant for pilots or also for casual people?

[@waypointsaviation]

Hello, This is for anyone who needs it, pilots, home flight simmers anyone…

[@CrazyPlayer-pf2hv]

@@waypointsaviation ahh lol So in theory its also if an A320 has an extreme crisis(both pilots are unconcious) and someone from the passengers would fly.

[@waypointsaviation]

Something one hopes would never happen, but knowledge never hurt anyone...

[@Bushranasr]

Yes!!!

[@SpaceOdyssey-]

Captain all these preparation in real life is read and do ??

[@waypointsaviation]

They're not read and do, during training obviously you're allowed to read and do so you know the steps but once you're done with the type-rating you should know the procedures from memory. But the good thing is we always have to use checklists to ensure we didn't forget any steps along the way. So essentially yeah you can say its read and do 😁

[@dkalonji918]

Is the battery voltage indicated with no power available?

[@waypointsaviation]

It will always show the Voltage as its connected to the batteries , unless the batteries are off.

[@michealmufumbiro3314]

Thanks ssebo(sir) any cold and dark for a330-800 plse

[@waypointsaviation]

Not sure what you mean , as this cockpit is A320.

[@thephobos614]

no printer?

[@MSA3568]

Thanks. Great lively presentation. You can improve it by removing the joke captions as they are as distracting as the adverts.For your info😊

[@waypointsaviation]

Thanks for your comment and your input... we'll surely put your comment about the jokes to the consensus. If the crowd wants more seriousness and no jokes we can do that... although it would take away from the flavor of how we deliver these training videos.... with regards to the ads, one can go premium and do away with it 😁

[@Aslam388]

Its very good video leaned a lot

Glad to hear that
