Simulator Compatibility and Requirements

  • Fully compatible with Microsoft Flight Simulator X Acceleration and SP2.
  • Not designed for FS2004 or earlier versions.
  • Not suitable for DirectX 10 preview mode.

Installation Instructions

  1. Use an extraction utility (like WinZip) and extract all contents into the main Microsoft Flight Simulator X folder.
  2. Ensure the “Use Folder Names” option is active so the correct subfolders are generated.
  3. If you are using Windows Vista or above, temporarily disable User Account Control (UAC) if folders fail to create automatically.
  4. Confirm any prompts to overwrite files by selecting “Yes to All.”

When installation completes, the addon and all supporting materials (including the aircraft’s panel, Virtual Cockpit, documentation, etc.) will be placed in the proper directories.

Operational Notes

  • Refer to the Panel_Docs folder for thorough guidance regarding the cockpit layout and advanced systems.
  • Consult the default Airbus A321 documentation within FSX for supplementary panel insights.
  • Use Shift + E to manage the primary passenger door.
  • Seat height adjustment in the VC involves pressing CTRL + ENTER.
  • The yoke is shown or hidden by pressing the water rudder toggle (CTRL + W by default).
  • Apply trim (nose-up clicks) prior to takeoff, especially if flaps or load changes occur.
  • If using CTRL + E to autostart, confirm the generator switches are active on the overhead panel once the engines are running.
