A320 CBT 1.3.4

The A320 CBT is a sophisticated flight simulation program designed primarily to assist pilots and instructors in preventing unstable approaches. As an educational aid, it provides comprehensive coverage of the A320 family, including the A320, A321, and NEO variants. Developed by an active A320 Captain and author of "Practical Descent Energy Management," this application offers a practitioner-specific perspective rooted in real-world experience.

The simulator distinguishes itself as a pioneering platform, combining interactive lessons with a free-flight mode. It includes a variety of predefined scenarios that streamline setup for high-energy approach situations and allows users to save current flight states to craft customized exercises.

All phases of flight are effectively supported, including takeoff, approach, landing, and go-around. It incorporates realistic ILS, VOR, and RNP approach simulations, with the ILS signals exhibiting authentic bending behavior beyond typical operational ranges.

The system features an innovative proprietary physics engine optimized for minimal hardware demands while delivering a credible flight experience. High-resolution graphics are rendered via a proprietary vector graphics engine from Rive, offering sharp visuals and lossless zoom functionality suitable for small-screen devices without degradation of image quality.

Navigation and autopilot controls are facilitated through an intuitive interface, with straightforward management of FCU buttons for autopilot operation. The simulator also accommodates various environmental conditions, including cold weather and inaccurate QNH settings. Users can modify runway elevation figures to replicate diverse high-altitude airfield scenarios.
