Title: Welcome on board
Post by: betedesvosges on January 30, 2014, 04:54:48 AM
Hello,

My name is Joël, i'm 31 and i live in France, a small village near Colmar in Alsace.

I started the simulation in several years by a generic cockpit.
Now, i'm building a cockpit of Airbus A320 on scale 1.

I finished the structure and i have now a reflexion about electronics and interfaces.
From begining, i used A320 from Wilco but i achieve its limitres : This solution allows to use a single computer. That's why I'm testing the solution of JeeHell because i would use others computers.

You will find all the details of the construction on my website : http://www.mon-a320.fr/ (http://www.mon-a320.fr/)

Current project status :

Hi Joel

Nice surprise this morning to see your post and introduction here.
I know Joel from another Forum where I spend time too.
Highly motivated builders overthere and a few amazing cockpits.
Ingenuity at its best !

We have Airbus fans here too and the Jeehell software is worth a try in my opinion and an alternative to PM and AST. Maybe you could elaborate on that as it is virtually unknown here.

Warm welcome aboard.
Jack  ;)

Thanks Jack, and happy to find you here.

I'm just starting tests about Jeehell, it's for that that i have not a lot to say about it for the moment.
I'll let you know soon.

What can i say is it's a complete freeware of an AIRBUS A320 who is developped by only one guy since 4-5 years.

Intrdouction from user guide :

A320 FMGS software is a freeware solution to replicate the real Airbus A320's Flight
Management & Guidance System (FMGS) and main electronic instruments for Microsoft's
Flight Simulator®. My aim with this software is to achieve the greatest realism possible,
given the limitations of FS, my free time and my programming skills. As of this writing, the
following systems are (partially) modeled:
• FMGS
• AP/FD & FBW
• Primary Flight Display (PFD)
• Navigation Display (ND)
• Flight Control Unit (FCU)
• Multifunction Control & Display Unit (MCDU)
• Engine /Warning Display (E/WD)
• Status Display (SD)
• Overhead panel and subsequent ACFT systems
• Brakes triple indicator
• Stand-By instruments
