This guide’s reference
iniBuilds A320neo V2 and FlyByWire A32NX; choose the source matching your loaded package.
Simulator and version context
MSFS 2024 references; the Microsoft Discovery film is a May 2024 MSFS (2020) recording.

FlyByWire explicitly models A320-251N / LEAP 1A-26. The iniBuilds manual is a separate A320neo V2 reference, not an A32NX or Fenix procedure.

Keep the scope beside the source.

The manufacturer introduction is not a complete current-build course. Use the separate developer manuals for full procedures.

The publisher-hosted iniBuilds manual carries an older internal revision. Current package documentation and release notes take precedence; this page supplies no unverified limits or speeds.

Source review and live VA fleet check: 30 October 2026. A reference implementation is not a declaration of your installed package or a local flight test. Current simulator-aircraft procedures and limits take precedence over older recordings and real-aircraft brochures.
