APU Start Procedure Airbus A320

Here is a short video of the APU start procedure for the A320 (this one is from projectmagenta) I am trying jeehell lately. I will also publish some updates from the jeehell setup. #simulation #flightsimulation #engineering #engineerslife #airbus #a320 #airbusa320 #design #construction #progress #turkey #turkish #challenge #flying #aviation #avporn #flight #cockpit #homecockpit #avgeek #technology #aerospace #simulator #homesimulator #technics #aviationlove #airport #airbusa3

Brief Information on the Setup

This is a private Project, which started in 2003. It is a 1-1 size (without motion) Airbus A320 simulator based at home. It is full one-to-one scale cabin with GLARE, MAIN, PEDESTAL and OVERHEAD Panels. Currently there is a single short throw BenQ projector for the outside world. I am using Project Magenta full suite software for ; PFD/ND - Primary Flight Display / Navigational Display ECAM - Electronic Centralized Aircraft Monitor E/WD - Engine / Warning Display SD - System

Airbus A320 Self Made Wet Compass is Working

Finally I've solved the calibration issue with OC SIOC and the wet compass is working. This demonstration shows a heading change from 0 to 90 with the compass following the heading change. Somehow with heading change the 022C offset of FSUIPC slips back and then returns back to normal ( I am still investigation this). #simulation #flightsimulation #engineering #engineerslife #airbus #a320 #airbusa320 #design #construction #progress #turkey #turkish #challenge #flying #aviatio

Test flight take off from Istanbul Ataturk Airport LTBA RW36L

Take off from Istanbul Ataturk airport (LTBA) 36L. Doing some tests with the FCU (autopilot) module, flying towards the Black See. Still lots to do and lots to optimize. The controls (such as landing gear, flaps and throttle etc were managed from the instructor station in this video). Logics is from Project Magenta. I am testing jeehell lately, will update soon. #simulation #flightsimulation #engineering #engineerslife #airbus #a320 #airbusa320 #design #construction #progress

3D Design of the Simulator

Basis of design. This is where it all beings. I've first accomplished the 3D design of the complete cockpit prior to beginning with the construction work. The construction is mainly out of wood with special priming and painting techniques. In this way, I was able to judge dimensional issues as i did not have the chance to go inside a real cockpit and measure things out. #simulation #flightsimulation #engineering #engineerslife #airbus #a320 #airbusa320 #design #construction #

Airbus A320 Overhead Circuit Breaker Panels

Overhead circuit breakers are PU cast from an original Circuit Breaker. Backlighting is done via white led stripes. A really cool touch to the simulator and the shell. Non functional normally :) #simulation #flightsimulation #engineering #engineerslife #airbus #a320 #airbusa320 #design #construction #progress #turkey #turkish #challenge #flying #aviation #avporn #flight #cockpit #homecockpit #avgeek #technology #aerospace #simulator #homesimulator #technics #aviationlove #air

Flight from LTBA (Atatürk) to LGAV (Eleftherios Venizelos)

Here is a video showing some of the systems on my setup. This was a cool flight from LTBA (Istanbul Ataturk Airport) to LGAV (Eleftherios Venizelos) over the beautiful Aegean sea. Calm weather with CAVOK. This is project magenta systems. I am testing jeeheel lately and will update soon. #simulation #flightsimulation #engineering #engineerslife #airbus #a320 #airbusa320 #design #construction #progress #turkey #turkish #challenge #flying #aviation #avporn #flight #cockpit #hom

3D printed Korry Type Buttons

I have designed in 3D environment the Korry type buttons which are widely used in Airbus type cockpits. The file was then converted to STL and 3d printed using PLA filament. The end results are very good. Here is a short video of the production steps involved in the manufacturing process. I simply love 3d printing technology where there is absolutely no boundries at all. There is a better guide for the korry production, will publish in due course. #simulation #flightsimulatio

LTFM - Istanbul New Airport

I was lucky to be able to visit the Istanbul Airport (ICAO code is LTFM, IATA code is IST) prior to its official opening on 29.10.2018. My tour of the new airport included all details such as the taxiways, treshold of runway 35L, the tower, airport datacenter, terminals, luggage loading areas. We all hope the best for this airport, which will the world's biggest airport when in full operation within couple of years. #istanbul #turkey #ltfm #airport #flying #aviation #runway #

Airbus A320 Overhead Panel Progress Updates

Finally getting there. The middle section of the overhead panel is progressing. Here are some update photos. The next panel I'll be working on is the Hydraulics / Fuel Panel. I will to run that panel with AUDRINO. All my other panels run on SIOC #simulation #flightsimulation #engineering #engineerslife #airbus #a320 #airbusa320 #design #construction #progress #turkey #turkish #challenge #flying #aviation #avporn #flight #cockpit #homecockpit #avgeek #technology #aerospace #si

Airbus A320 Overhead AIRCONDITIONING Panel

With the 3D printed korry type buttons and the knobs, I am now finishing the overhead AIRCOND panel. The next panel will be the IRS and HYD/FUEL panels. There should be a better solution than the plexiglass stiffening approach. I am investigating currently. I will post lit up photos soon when the interfacing with OC cards and SIOC coding are finished. #simulation #flightsimulation #engineering #engineerslife #airbus #a320 #airbusa320 #design #construction #progress #turkey #t
