NEWS! - Aircraft Updated : Airbus A319-112 v1.10 by Toliss

 

 

ToLiss has updated the "Baby Bus" A319-112 to v1.10. Usually when another new ToLiss aircraft is released, and in this case it was the A330neo. As usual the new features introduced then trickle down to the other Airbus Aircraft in the Series. first a few days ago it was the A340-600, here now the A319-112.

 

Main change is the ISCS (Interactive Simulation Control System) menu, which is now available on the EFB Tablet, and not just as a pop-up menu. Included ECAM (Electronic Centralized Aircraft Monitoring) improvements package, FMGS (Flight Management and Guidance System) or autopilot improvements Package, Hydraulics, again a big new improvements package. More Failure modes, R TO page prefills the RADIAL IN on the DIR TO page as required, quick starts for APU (Auxiliary Power Unit) and Engines are now also available from the ISCS, possibility to use Airport ICAO codes as waypoints, and there is also a load of bug fixes.

 

New features:

- ISCS in EFB

- Hydraulic improvement package: 

. Added simulation of trapped hydraulic fluid in asymmetric actuators such as landing gear or spoiler actuators. 

. Fixed the PTU overheat when ENG1 is failed.

- MCDU improvement package: 

. CLR command is now indented in scratchpad as in real life

. DIR TO page prefills the RADIAL IN on the DIR TO page as required

. FPLN Page Destination EFOB turns amber, if below minimum required.

- ECAM improvement package: 

. Overspeed warning now triggers based on actual flap/slat position and not lever position (PFD barber pole is still lever position driven as in real life.)

. Removed duplication of system titles if the same system shows multiple subsequent rows of ECAM messages.

. Weight display logic for SD: Prior to engine start, the dashes are now cyan. Weights now only show after engine start, like in real life.

. Status page improvement: Approach procedures for hydraulic faults

. Rework of the ECAM messages for electrical bus failures to represent a newer FWC standard

- FMGS improvement package:

. Added possibility to use Airport ICAO codes as waypoints

. Bug fixes for the path computation leading to an overall much stabler path computation in complex procedures.

. Empty flight plan shows as PPOS / Discon rather than just "End of flpn" and can be built up from there.

. VIA selection is now automatic, if there is exactly one VIA that matches the selected FINAL and STAR.

. Constraints of first waypoint in STAR are not dropped anymore.

- Added cross track error display on ground prior to departure

- New failure modes: 

. Slow and rapid decompression

. THS jam.

. Cargo smoke, including latched closure of the isolation valves

. Added high lift failures, including loss of SFCC channels and slats/flaps lock

. Windshears with correct REAC W/S detection and indication.

- Visual improvement package:

. Added AoA Vanes to fuselage model

. Fixed the tiller textures

. Animated the flap lever guard

. Correct the eye reference ball colors and location

. Fixed text overlaps on the overhead panel

- Added new Circuit breakers (for high lift, air conditioning packs, ...) bringing the total to 242

- Added pitch influence to the RADALT value, so that the RADALT decreases when you pitch up (like IRL)

- Added limitation with filtering to the maximum number of waypoints shown on ND when WPT overlay selected.

- Quick starts for engine and APU are now available on the Joystick/Actions tab.

- Mapped flight number to x-plane dataref "sim/cockpit2/radios/actuators/flight_id" for third party plugin interfacing.

- Improved Master Warning flashing frequency.

- Terrain on ND drawing around the airport is now inhibited for areas of same elevation as the airport.

- If you select a livery with 2 OWE pairs, the maximum number of passengers will increase to 160.

- Added selected heading value on ND, if in ARC mode the heading bug is not visible.

 

Bug fixes:

- Fixed issue with the interaction between the CLR button and the status page

- Fixed issue with status page overflow.

- The emergency generator now consumes hydraulic fluid.

- The magnetic variation model now updates for the current year.

- Fixed FMA alignment of armed modes and issue with empty boxes

- Extended the permissible value range for FCU speed window to 399kts and Mach 0.99 like in real life

- Extended the permissible value range for FCU altitude window to 49000ft like in real life

- ISI startup correction: QNH is also visible during ISI startup; moved QNH to right location.

- Removed CHG CODE field for other phases than PREFLIGHT or DONE.

- Improved string termination on MCDU string datarefs.

- Fixed an issue with SID route in alternate plan on first alternate plan programming.

- Fixed an issue with waypoints preceded by a discon where the outgoing leg is of the CI/CD/CR/CA or VI/VR/VD type.

- Fixed FMA indication for managed descent on profile with significantly too slow speed.

- Fixed behaviour of the FCU HDG managed dot when a managed mode (NAV, LOC, APPR) is armed.

- Fixed shape of the ADF2 needle on the ND.

- Removed GS indication on ND, when the associated ADIRU is OFF or invalid.

- Made the deceleration when descending through the SPD LIM altitude smoother.

- Fixed issue with the beta target leading to excessive rudder deflection and spoiler extension on the wrong side.

- Corrected the color of the RAM Air Inlet indication when open in flight.

- Disabled autobrake if 2 or more SECs are lost.

- Fixed a bug that could cause sending many requests to the Hoppie network in a short period of time.

- Miscellaneous other bug fixes

 

 

 

 

The Airbus A319 is a member of the Airbus A320 family of short- to medium-range, narrow-body, commercial passenger twin-engine jet airliners manufactured by Airbus. The A319 carries 124 to 156 passengers and has a maximum range of 3,700 nmi (6,900 km; 4,300 mi). Final assembly of the aircraft takes place in Hamburg, Germany and Tianjin, China.

The A319 is a shortened-fuselage variant of the Airbus A320 and entered service in April 1996 with Swissair, around two years after the stretched Airbus A321 and eight years after the original A320. The aircraft shares a common type rating with all other Airbus A320 family variants, allowing existing A320 family pilots to fly the aircraft without the need for further training.

 

The Journey of the ToLiss A319-112 has been also the story of their incredibly rise to being one of the very best developers in X-Plane, maybe the overall best Airbus developers in Simulation as a whole. The aircraft here in v1.10 reflects its current modernity, totally updated in it's X-Plane 12 role as are the whole balance of the ToLiss Airbus fleet, so the "Baby Bus" has not been left wanting, or certainly it is not at all dated in this competitive environment, but encompasses the detail and the quality required today to be at the very top of aircraft experiences, from an excellent developer...  you always wanted the very best, if you want an Airbus, then here it is...   and totally X-Plane 12 ready.
