Conditions properly.Wind The wind can be input simply as the headwind component (a single positive number) or tailwind component (a single negative number), or it can be input in the form degrees/kts. It can be automatically entered from either the OFP or the METAR as described above. If you enter the wind yourself, be sure you are entering the wind in terms of a magnetic direction rather than the true direction. ATIS winds will be provided in terms of a magnetic direction, but METAR winds are in terms of true direction. If you enter the winds from METAR, consult the airport 10-9 (or 10-9A) chart to determine the magnetic variation and convert the direction to magnetic, as shown in the following examples in Advanced Takeoff Calculator Guide. If you choose to enter the winds automatically from the METAR, this conversion will be done automatically.If the wind direction is given as variable, enter the wind direction into the takeoff performance calculator as a tailwind. If the wind direction varies between 2 values, enter the wind direction that will result in the largest tailwind (if the direction includes a tailwind direction) or the smallest headwind. If the wind speed includes a gust value, enter only the steady wind value. Temperature This is simply the outside air temperature. It can be automatically entered from either the OFP or the METAR as described above. It can also be entered manually based on either the active ATIS or METAR.QNH This is the sea-level atmospheric pressure at the airport. It can be automatically filled from either the OFP or the METAR as described above. It can also be entered manually based on either the active ATIS or METAR.Takeoff WeightThis is the weight at which the airplane starts the takeoff (after taxiing to the runway). It can either be automatically entered from the OFP as described above or entered manually.CG Position This is the takeoff CG position. The standard CG position is the default entry. Select the forward CG position if the takeoff CG is forward of (less than) 27% MAC. (The standard CG envelope’s forward limit

LIfe V2-L3 , CLX PC , Auto FPS, ACTIVE Sky FS, A2A Comanche, 1 hour ago, ckyliu said: If it's ready to taxi the engines are already running so you do not need the APU or its bleed air. You can just disconnect the GPU, the engines are already powering everything. Very unusual using APU to provide bleed during takeoff too, usually just turn the packs off for 5 min. That goes for most airliners, not just Airbus. I am told, only time packs are turned off is for a very short runway or high altitude takeoff.

But almost no one is using APU during takeoff on any type. And the Airbus ain't no Trident 3B (very niche reference there, kudos to anyone who remembers the four engined tri-jet!) ckyliu, proud supporter of ViaIntercity.com. i5 12400F, 32GB, RTX4070, more in "About me" on my profile. 3 hours ago, ckyliu said: very niche reference there, kudos to anyone who remembers the four engined tri-jet! I didn't, but as you mentioned it just had to Google it. Interesting! Yep, a giant APU made (partially) of plastic and derived from a VTOL engine that produced over 5,200 lbf to assist takeoff. Automatic start from the overhead like a normal APU but had a switch for IDLE or CLIMB near the pedestal (shown above), throttling was otherwise decided by system logic and automatic shut off once established in the climb. A classic British bodge job really 🤣 David Maltby and Saverio Maurri made a freeware Trident for FS9, with a virtual cockpit and working APU booster engine! If you still have an FSX install you can try it out, it's certainly novel. And deafening. Described as "modern in an old fashioned way" like an episode of Thunderbirds, with it's offset nosegear, leading edge slats, autoland, in-flight reverse (with 10,000 fpm descent!) and powered cabin doors; I don't think much of the way of thinking made it to Airbus, although Hawker Siddeley's descendants continue to design and build Airbus wings to this day. And BA's early
