Airbus

Hi folks

Amazing A/C but the only away to fell confortable is study , and not trying memorize everthing (only the seven memory items request to any airbus pilot) . Yes there are 3 Fcoms and FMGC manual , start the vacbi and Fcom 1 , when you start the conversion to Simulator go to Fcom 3 and study the SOPs.
And follow the Sops always. Be standard
You will see and realize that after first year flying Airbus you felt that you dont know everything about the AC but you know how to search information in the fcoms and your proeficience and skills improved.
But be standard all the times and follow SOPs , and during the follows sim sessions you will find how important is CRM during drills and how to handle Ecams.
Good luck
