Thanks for this one. I just recently concluded a A320 Engine Run-up Course equipped with CFM56 and V2500-A5 in our company (MRO). Never would imagine the Fenix A320 and MSFS 2020 developed that manual start procedures were missed by Aerosoft. Kudos to you, Captain.
My question would be, if automatic start doesn’t work surely that means somethings wrong ? Is it safe to carry on the flight ? Without knowing why it didn’t work ?
Yea, pretty much, if autostart is not on MEL, then it's safe to fly. It might be safe to say that there wouldn't even be a manual start system in the first place if it wasn't the case, too.
It will also be nice if you can explain how to do a in flight engine restart. This is especially helpful for the simmer, who accidentaly turn off the engine master switch off in flight. This can happens when trying to click on the second PC screen outside the simulator, and where you click happens to be the engine master switch... Additionally, I am interested in the difference between B737 and A320. In B737, the engine ignition switch is usually placed to continous when performing takeoff and landing. Why A320 does not need to do the same thing? Or is this performed in some other ways?
thanks! btw Could you please explain how the Call Crew buttons work? What is the difference between these buttons and when should be press?
This looks almost like the normal procedure for starting the Boeing 737 engines

once again a very explanatory and informative narration and another useful topic thank you, captain
Yo! Thanks for the video, it's really appreciated.
what about master lever position after shut down.....
Great video! Can you maybe make another one about the engine start selector on the boeing 737?
Would love to see a video on how to do a crossbreed start with inop apu!

Maybe its just me but since the "little" CTP incident you seem a little bit more "grounded". Honestly enjoying your content more now. Thanks
I simply use less VATSIM, that's a huge improvement to the simulation experience ;-)

the a320 uses auto ignition during those phases of flight, so you do not have to select ignition in the engine mode selector
What plane are you using
In the title, the fenix a320
