A320neo modern features and configuration options

[Leonidas Georgiou]

Hello,

Since the development of the NEO family has been announced by the team, I would like to add a suggestion:

When fslabs released the sharklets, it delivered a package with a new feature besides the sharklets: the EFB. It would be great if something similar was done regarding the release of the NEO family. My idea is to include, if not all, most of the modern features of the newly delivered aircraft that can be modelled, lots of them found in the aircraft configuration summary like:

AP/FD TCAS; 

Backup data(bckup speed + GPS ALT) instead of BUSS; (+Enchanced AP, alternate AP, AP IN PROT)

RNP AR (RF leg capability);

Descent Profile Optimization (DPO)

xLS concept: FLS function, GLS (CAT1 and autoland), SLS;

FANS;

RAAS;

ROW/ROPS (+2023 extension consisting of dry/wet rotary selector and OFF pushbutton);

Soft GA function;

Digital audio panel (replacing RMP, ACP and XPNDR panels);

(QFE BARO setting);

And of course the new FMS look and design of modern NEO's

I know these are a lot, and many of them might seem useless to some, but I think they would be very much appreciated, and altough subtle, I believe they would give the product a pretty modern and cool vibe, making it stand out even more from the CEO products! Are you planning on including any of these? I would love to hear your thought on this.

Cheers!

P.S.: If anyone wants to know more about these features, my sources are: the Airbus WIN site, new FCOM and QRH(from the configuration summary), and airbus service bulletins.

@Norman Blackburn Hi Norman, I would love to hear your input on this. Are any of these features going to be included with the NEO release?

Hey guys!

Will the A320neo be an expansion? Or will it be a standalone product. I honestly love the FSLabs lineup, but I ain’t very liquid to buy all the previous variants first

If we can buy the NEO variant’s separately, that’d be epic!

As you guys shared news on the concord, can we expect some news for the NEO too?

We are waiting for ages for some news.
