Aircraft Dissected Ep 1: The Overhead Panel I Airbus A320 I Detailed Tutorial (X-plane 11/MSFS 2020)

This is the first video in the second iteration of the popular 'Aircraft Dissected' Series on this channel, where we explore every single switch, knob and display in the flight deck of different aircraft and understand their functions. This iteration of the series aims to dissect the Airbus A320 family of aircraft, which includes the A318, A319, A320 and A321 - including their NEO or 'new engine option' variants. In this first video, we take a detailed look at the left-hand column of the lower overhead panel in the flight deck. We explore systems such as the ADIRS, the Emergency Electrical Control Panel, the Flight Control Panel and so on. The next episode will feature the central column of the lower overhead panel; which houses all of the major hydraulic, fuel, electrical and air conditioning systems within the aircraft.
