Q: Why is my version not the same as what I see others using?
We have two versions: Stable and Development.
Stable
The Stable version is a 'snapshot' of the development which we regard as stable with the current version of the simulator. See Downloads.

A32NX Quick FAQ
Q: I cannot hear the Flaps or PTU in the cockpit anymore?
This change was made due to feedback from IRL A320 pilots who identified the sounds could not be heard from the cockpit IRL as they currently are in the simulator.
The PTU has a toggleable switch on the EFB (flyPad) settings that allows you to hear it in the cockpit when it is running.
Q: Is the Hold function implemented yet?
Yes - the Hold function is available in the MCDU.
Q: Why is the overall interior lighting different? (Blue light effect on pedestal and displays)
Based on IRL A320 pilot feedback, the blue light effect can only be seen from images. Also, the pedestal should be dark at night to improve pilots' vision at night.
Q: Why does light bleed into the cockpit? Can this be fixed?
Unfortunately, no - This is a more profound issue which will require work from the Asobo team.
Q: The new sounds are different from the default ones, why?
The default sounds were shared sounds from other default aircrafts. The new sounds are accurate and very well-developed based on the A320 and A320neo pilot feedback.
