Airbus A320 pilot handbook: Simulator and checkride techniques

I love flying the Toliss A320 and A319 on X-Plane 12, and this book has been fantastic in increasing my depth of knowledge on these aircraft. Excellent, easy reading with tons of great pics explaining all the panels and systems. I already had an FCOM and QRH, but this adds another great amount of info for the A320 series. Very happy I bought it. Thumbs up!

Friendly systems review of the Airbus A320

So, my German is pathetic but the book is in English anyway, so I'll use that language for my 2 cents. As an aviation enthusiast and avid flightsimmer I LOVE this book. The content, the way of presentation (controversial but helps to remember details IMO) and even a bit cheesy American sense of humor. The book provides pretty deep level of technical detail. You may want to google all 4 volumes of A320 FCOM and FCTM for full picture, but Mike Ray highlights everything what matters in a fun and concise way. What's real gem from my perspective is glimpse into HOW this aircraft is truly operated in a real world. And WHY these are that procedure. The only caveat is that apparently it is following United SOP which is different from Airbus SOP (for this see FCOM vol. 3 along with FCTM). The only negative is that I picked the 'soft cover' version, which is not very convenient if you use it as a reference while flying (in the PC flightsim obviously). This was however conscious choice as spiral-bound version is som much more expensive. HOWEVER - I would think twice again, especially if you are going to use it for flightsimming and plan to keep it on your desk next to your keyboard and sidestick ;) To sum up - if you hate American cheesy jokes, subtract one star, otherwise its perfect! &

It explains the operating of all the switches buttons and displays of the A320 but is not a operating manual for the msfs 2020 A320.

It's just so good
