follow in bold. These items signal a step that needs to be taken to correctly operate the aircraft and should
be followed in sequence. These checklists are the basic requirements to operate the aircraft. A more
detailed and expanded checklist is available from the kneeboard within the simulation.
APU MASTER SWITCH – ON
(This switch can be found at the lower centre of the overhead panel, opened using the panel switcher icon
or the shift-2 key combination)
It will take approximately 60 seconds for the aircraft to configure the APU for use at which point the APU
starter becomes available.
APU – START
(This switch is directly below the APU master switch)
Again there will be a delay whilst the APU engine spools up. We can monitor progress by opening the lower
display panel and pressing the APU button. This will show the status of the APU on the lower display
screen. The APU should finally settle at around 92% N1 (this is the rotation speed of the fan blades).
Once the APU has settled we can take advantage of the electrical supply and compressed air on offer.
APU BLEED – ON
This allows the APU to provide compressed air to the aircraft systems
APU GEN – ON
This allows the APU to provide electricity to the aircraft systems
On the upper centre portion of the overhead panel you may notice that the APU BAT light is showing ‘off’
dependant on the aircraft configuration loaded when you opened the simulator. If this is the case then:-

FLYING THE A340
The following tutorial flight from London to Dublin has been written by Jane Rachel Whittaker to help you
get to grips with flying this marvellous airliner.
Tutorial Flight to Dublin
Welcome to the Airbus A340-600. Until the new ‘double decker’ A380 enters service this aircraft is currently
the flagship of the Airbus fleet. The A340 is utilised for long-haul, high density passenger routes as a direct
competitor to the Boeing 747 series. The A340-600 can fly for up to 7500nm non-stop with sectors such as
Paris–Los Angeles and London-Singapore being achieved with ease.
For this tutorial our flight of choice will be a more modest hop from London Heathrow to Dublin taking just
over an hour. A number of operators, with the aim of filling seats, now operate multi-leg flights and a stopover
in Ireland en route to the USA is not uncommon. Our flight can be considered such a leg on a longer
flight to the United States or Canada. If, at the end of this tutorial flight, you are motivated to continue
westwards, or return to London Heathrow, the techniques discussed in this tutorial should stand you in
good stead while you earn your stripes as an Airbus Captain!
Feel free to pick an A340-600 with the livery of your choice for this tutorial and load the aircraft into Flight
Simulator at a gate of your choosing at London Heathrow. We recommend a gate at Terminal 3 that is
equipped to deal with very large aircraft such as our A340. For this tutorial disable the weather and all
other traffic in the simulation as they will simply be an unwanted distraction when concentrating your
efforts on becoming familiar with the A340. You can use either flight model realism option for this tutorial
according to your preference.
Your first duty for this flight is to order sufficient fuel for the journey. Such a short hop across the Irish Sea
will utilise only a fraction of the available fuel load of the aircraft. Go right ahead and open the Flight
Simulator fuel menu and put 15% fuel in each of the fuel tanks. Such is the size of the fuel tanks this will
provide enough fuel for the journey and sufficient reserve fuel should you need to ‘go-around’ at Dublin.
In the real A340 the process of filling tanks with fuel is a complex process of balancing and tank priorities.
In our simulated A340 the emphasis is on flying the aircraft rather than having to take on the role of filling
station attendant! It is just fine to place 15% fuel in all the tanks and the simulation will take care of
keeping the aircraft balanced for our flight.
Before boarding the aircraft we need to confirm our route of flight. Open the Flight Simulator flight planner.
From the menu choose London Heathrow (EGLL) as our departure point and Dublin (EIDW) as our arrival.
Select the option for an IFR (instrument) flight plan and enter 32000ft as our cruise altitude. Go ahead and
let Flight Simulator create the flight plan. Alternatively, if you are a flight plan purist you can go right ahead
and create your own flight plan with full arrival and departure procedures to supplement the automatically
generated flight plan. For our purposes for this tutorial, however, the automatically generated flight plan is
acceptable. You will be given a westerly departure over the CPT (Compton) waypoint near Reading, one of
