Boeing and Mcdonald douglas have a button called lnav which will follow your flight plan in the fmc and other things(holding etc.). Where is there such a button on an a320, I cant find the vnav either(i know what it does, please dont explain it to me). How does airbus do the vnav and lnav feature.

The airbus airplanes, being that they HAD to be different from the Boeings, don't have neither of them. Just as they don't have the LVL CHG button either. It is all done through the "push/pull" the knob system. You pull the knob for LNAV and push ot for Heading hold. You pull the knob for VNAV and pull it for Altitude hold. When you push the Vertical Speed Knob, the autopilot will level off the aircraft.




Hope I wasn't confusing.

Hi this i have to say is also about the airbus. But how do you get the panels for the airbus a320? I downloaded United Airlines new colors for the airbus a320. But it didnt come with a good enough cockpit. I you have any answers please contact me. Thanks!
