Notice: I initially began this site as a hobby to make the Sample Oral Study Guide readily available.  Over time the content and features have been greatly expanded, but in doing so my costs involved have increased dramatically in terms of both time and expense. The cost of hosting, additional server space, domain name registration, and software revisions required to maintain the site are starting to add up (my time is free). Many of you have suggested I charge for this service, which I hesitate to do. As an alternative for those of you that use this site on a regular basis, you may participate voluntarily if you wish by making a small contribution to help support the costs involved, thus ensuring this site remains online. If you prefer not to, that's fine - the material will be available regardless. I have set up an account with PayPal which utilizes a secure payment method. If you would like to drop some spare change in the Airbusdriver.net Tin Cup fund to help cover expenses, click on the DONATE button to the left. If you are not comfortable using PayPal Click Here for alternate options. Thanks again to those of you that have helped out, thus ensuring this site stays online!

NEW! Airbus (plus Boeing & RJ) Lights & Switches System Software ...

The training focus of this site is for the Airbus A319/320/321 series aircraft. I have included the Flight Scenario Question and Answer Study Guide, TGS Study Guide, Simulator Callouts and Approach Briefing Guide, Type Rating Oral Guide, and CQT Scenarios. There are also several study aids such as the By Pilots For Pilots A320 study software, Flight Operations Journals, a Lights and Switches Guide, FMA Guide, various system schematics, and the Eric Park's Airbus Training Notes available for download. 

Many of you have been awarded an Airbus bid but do not have a class date. The company will not issue a PHB until you have been assigned to school. For those of you who would like to begin preparation in advance of training (highly recommended!) I have posted an Airbus Pre-School page with suggestions and materials to give you a head start. There is also an Initial Training page describing what to expect once you do begin training.

Quite a few individuals have requested a section dedicated to techniques related to flying the Airbus, so that is now incorporated within the site. If you have any items of interest you think would be beneficial to the group please don't hesitate to forward it for posting. If you prefer, it can be implemented in an anonymous manner. There is also an Airbus Boot Camp page with answers to questions sent in from pilots on the line.

Pages summarizing the Flight Control Laws and ECAM Procedures, links to the Airbus FAST articles, a section on Incidents relating to the Airbus, Airbus Trivia, and an ECAM Quiz page are also provided.

The concept here is a two way street. You will have access to the latest set of material at all times. When you're up for a pending checkride, just check here to determine if you have the latest set of Guides and the current CQT scenario. If not, feel free to download the most current set. In return, if you would be kind enough to relay any pertinent information relating to your CQT checkride back to me, we can disseminate this information for the benefit of all. In addition, any constructive comments or criticisms would be appreciated. Please report any errors or updates that you find. If you think additional information would be beneficial, let me know. Send any links to other websites you think we should add to the site.

If you would like to be added to the auto update list, drop me an Email and I'll let you know when an update has been incorporated to the Study Guides or CQT Scenarios. Note: If you are already on the update list and haven't received an auto update in the last month, you'll have to send me your updated address.

The Study Guides were developed using Microsoft Word.  Adobe Acrobat PDF versions are available for those of you lacking Word.
