-
- This guide assumes you have done a training flight and/or have got used
- to the controls.
-
- When asked to select TRAINING or DUTY select Duty, as a student pilot
- the Departure Airport is selected for you.
-
- This is where the problem of not having the Maps supplied with the game
- comes in, but can be overcome, all you need is an atlas which shows the
- UK and Western Europe.
-
- So for example your Departure airport is EGNV - Teeside so enter as
- destination EGLL - London (Heathrow).
-
- Passengers any amount within the limits.
-
- Freight " " " " "
-
- Remember that the above is all weight and this has a direct effect on
- fuel consumption.
-
- Fuel - this is tricky as you have to work out how much fuel you need to
- cover the distance and in addition if you land at the destination with
- over 1000l approx your penalised on your fuel calculation score at the
- end of the mission, also if you land with less than 300 approx you also
- get penalised (so it seems). This maybe that if you land with too much
- its unsafe and if you attempt a landing with to little and have to be
- diverted you have had it.. Anway as a general guide enter 35 - 45 and
- you will soon get the hang of it.
-
- Click on VOR or IFR and then OK.. (VOR/IFR) seems to be related to
- some sorta flight regs.. Use VOR if ya unsure.
-
-
- MET:
-
- Click on VMC unless you want to muck around with Cloud base and other
- weather anomalies...
-
- Click On OK..
-
-
-
- You are now told everything is OK.. (But it aint..hehehheheh)
-
-
-
- Right, now you naff off to the cockpit..
-
- Got ya best suit on and your reinforced Y fronts.. packed lunch in
- your pilots case and a packet of condoms so you can bonk a stewardess
- when yout flying at 35000ft with nothing on your mind except should you
- have had that Vindaloo last nite after 16 pints of lager!!...
-
- Ok get ya arse in the seat and look at the controls..(eeek!!)
-
- Yup you gotta get this baby off the ground... so follow this:
-
-
-
- Press 4 & 6 get the engines going.
-
- Select N1 this is the Navigation beacon for the destination airport ILS
- code. London - Heathrow is 10950 (see Airports codes)
-
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
- Now this is where the maps come in. To find the direction you must fly
- in you enter into N2 a direction beacon code. (see Navigation fires).
- So what you do is look at the atlas and select a Nav site nearest to
- your departure point but in line (or as close as) destination path.
- This will enable you to set your heading in the right direction. Once
- you take off and gain altitude, if the beacon has DME capability this
- will tell you how far to the beacon. When this decreases to 50 - 25 you
- can then enter another beacon on the flight path, and so on until you
- reach your destination. (Got it..) In this example.. we all know
- TEESIDE is North of London, so you dont need to enter N2 if you dont
- want to, just bung in the ILS code in N1 (Always enter this) and set the
- heading for 175. Because Heading 0=North 90=East 180=South 270=East..
- Yerr I know its common sense but some peeps just havent got that much.
- Anyway ya got the basic idea.
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- Select N2 for VOR Nav sites.
-
- Select DF for NDB Nav sites with DME capabiltity.
-
- Press [8] get ya engines to 34% and roll onto the runway, line up to
- the centre and put ya boot to the floor. When you get to speed 150 then
- pull that stick back - thats it you should be going up - 2000ft press
- [F9] get your wheels out the way. Climb to 20000ft and check the NAV2
- display for your heading. If the up arrow is highlighted the beacon is
- in front of you and down is behind. With the left right cursor keys
- adjust your heading till the up arrow is highlighted. You will see a
- yellow vertical line in the display. Now you have to press [Left Alt
- or [Left Amiga] until the line centres, when this is done the number
- in the NAV display is your heading to follow. So adjust to this with
- cursorkeys. Now level out and reduce engine speed to 80-90% and proceed
- to the beacon. If DME is available at the beacon a countdown clock will
- appear and show distance. If the display reads 9999 this means that either
- you are not high enough (below 3-4000ft) or you are not close enough to
- the beacon for DME, so get your height up if thats low otherwise just
- keep on the heading indicated and once you are in range for DME the
- countdown will initiate.
-
- I am not going to explain how to keep height etc cos that should be obvious
- to you. You can use [E] ECFS once you have selected all the flight controls
- as you want them.
-
- Fly beacon to beacon and then when you are at the last Nav beacon and
- heading for Destination airport start dropping height to 2500ft and an
- airspeed of 180. As you approach the Airport and the ILS display comes
- into life you can make the final adjustments to heading. Again the
- rules for countdown clock applies except that for ILS you have to be
- flying low (Approach height 2000 - 5000) keep an eye on the ILS display
- and when 2 yellow cross hairs appear then whack the return button and
- go into full ILS (Auto-land) from here on in the plane is controlled
- by on board computers. On the Approach you will hear a beeeping and
- [O] will flash in the ILS display, this just means that the Outer marker
- has been reached and the same for [M] Middle Marker
-
- The Airbus will fly down onto the runway and at touchdown you need to
- take control. Press [0] on keypad for reverse thrust, when your speed
- falls to 45 press [.] on keypad to stop reverse thrust and then press
- the spacebar (Brakes) keep it held down until speed reaches 0.
-
- You will then get your mission stats and points. Thats it mission
- completed.
-
- You have to fly 10 missions to go up the next rank and your overall
- performance rating has to be adequate too. This is where the fuel
- estimation can make a big difference.
-
-
-
- THIS IS NOT THE FULL GAME DOCS BUT ITS A LOT MORE THAN THE IP-A320.DOCS
- THAT ARE AROUND AND ABOUT. WHOEVER DID THOSE DOCS DIDNT PUT THE ILS
- FREQUENCIES IN FOR THE AIRPORTS AND WITHOUT THOSE YOU HAVE HAD IT SO
- PATRIARCH HACKED THEM AND AMMENDED THE ORIGINAL IP-A320.TEXT AND ADDED
- A SHORT PLAYER GUIDE TO GET YA GOING..
-
-
- CMON, GUYZ IF YA GONNA CRACK SUMMIT MAKE IT 100% FIRST TIME ROUND, SAME
- WITH GAMES. BLOODY NAFF HAVING TO DLOAD A GAME 2 OR 3 TIMES JUST TO GET
- A WORKING VERSION. DOCS SHOULD BE AT LEAST, ABLE TO GET A GAME GOING.
- EVER THOUGHT ABOUT GAME TESTING.. NOT JUST BOOT UP PLAY 30 SECONDS AND
- SAY YUP IT WORKS!!
-
-
- LAST MOAN: DONT BUY CRACKED SOFTWARE OR PAY SUBSCRIPTIONS TO BBS COS IT
- SHOULD BE FREE. THE ONLY PEOPLE WORTHY OF PAYMENT FOR IT IS
- THE CRACKING GROUP ITSELF (WITHOUT WHOM IT WOULDNT BE RELEASED)
- SO IF YOUR BUYING IT STOP NOW!! THERES LOADSA PEOPLE WHO
- WILL SWAP.. SO DONT BE LAME..
-
- AS FOR BBS WHO CHARGE - FUCK OFF - YOUR NOT PAYING FOR THE
- CALLS TO UPLOAD & DLOAD SO WHY CHARGE SUBS. IF YOU HAVENT
- GOT WHAT IT TAKES TO RUN A BBS WITHOUT SUBS THEN YOU SHOULDNT
- BE ON THE SCENE. SO LAME BBS - LAY DOWN AND DIE -
-
-
- GOT THAT OFF ME CHEST....!!!
