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....!!!
