Chris Scott,



Chillpill,

Welcome to the bus!!! You`ll love it! I also flew the 737 several years before flying the A320! Just forget the 737! Both airplanes are very good and a joy to fly! But they fly different! Some prefer the boeing way, some the Bus way (like me!)... The A320 is a magnificent plane!
Learn it well and take advantage of it! The table, the quiet cockpit, the simple procedures, the automation, the sidestick, etc...

Read Chris Scott post, it says it all!

I don`t remember of ever reaching the sidestick stop! Remember, if you reach it, you`re not flying it as you should!

Use the force of your fingers to fly the plane, not the force of your arm, or even your wrist, as many people wrongly do!

When you`re moving the sidestick from one side to the other, just let it go for 2 senconds and then start flying it again making only small inputs!

Cheers!
