Ken het vliegtuig
The A340 shared substantial programme work with the A330 but used four engines for long-haul operations. The initial -200 and -300 were followed by the much larger -500 and -600 developments, which brought different engines and significant airframe changes.
The A340-600 has its own dimensions, fuel system and equipment. ToLiss's simulator documentation describes the specific flight-control and hydraulic modelling of its implementation.

Finding a runway in a white landscape
Mirpuri's log follows the 2 November 2021 flight of A340-313HGW 9H-SOL from Cape Town to Wolf's Fang. Preparation had taken months, including an advance visit by another captain. Much of the equipment needed to establish the season's operation travelled in the aircraft's own hold. During the flight, updated weather and runway-friction reports helped the crew confirm that conditions remained suitable.
The final approach presented a distinctive visual problem: the ice runway blended into the surrounding white landscape, making height judgement difficult. Mirpuri describes the intense reflection, the importance of the monitoring pilot's calls and the satisfaction of a landing that matched the plan. Applause from the cabin followed as the aircraft slowed. The crew then inspected the setting on foot before an uneventful return. This airline-published account attributes the result to preparation, ground support and crew coordination as well as the aircraft.
Teaching the next crew, and learning from them
In their conversation for Iberia, Ordovás recalls moving through the 727 and A320 before travelling to Miami for A340 training. By the time of the interview, he was an instructor and examiner on the A330 and A340. Menéndez, his friend and former colleague, had taught successive generations of pilots and continued instructing after his airline retirement. Their families' flying careers had crossed repeatedly.
They discuss how instruction had developed beyond technical drills to include judgement, attitudes and cooperation. Ordovás valued the humility needed to identify weaknesses and improve them, while Menéndez felt that teaching gave him energy in return. Both describe professional simulators as convincing enough to produce the physical reactions of a real flight. The joint interview concerns the careers and training work of instructors associated with the A340.
Long-haul flying, changing technology and life between countries
Lindegren describes a career that eventually brought him to the A330 and A340 after the DC-9, MD-11 and A320. In Remo Müller's SWISS profile, he reflects on the continuing need to adapt as paper manuals gave way to tablets and younger colleagues arrived fluent in the new tools. Long-haul flying had captivated him during what was meant to be a temporary assignment to Swissair, and he stayed.
The appeal came with costs. Maintaining a working life in Switzerland while his family lived in Sweden meant missing ordinary time together, as well as visiting distant cities. Near retirement from permanent employment, he was preparing a final rostered trip with friends as his crew and arranging to continue part-time flying. This is a personal account of an A330/A340 captain's working life; the interview does not identify every recalled journey with one specific aircraft variant.

JARDesign Airbus A340-500
Free + ProX-Plane 12JARDesign
The A340 shared substantial programme work with the A330 but used four engines for long-haul operations. The initial -200 and -300 were followed by the much larger -500 and -600 developments, which brought different engines and significant airframe changes.
This profile selects JARDesign Airbus A340-500 for X-Plane 12.
The spring stays independent of airspeed. Directed aerodynamic loading is omitted.
Pitch-trim relief is off. Autopilot following is off.
Deze exacte revisie is nog niet beschikbaar voor openbare installatie.
Controls and trim
Airbus's A340 uses passive sidesticks within its fly-by-wire cockpit philosophy. iniBuilds documents an A340-300 with custom rotation and flare behavior, while ToLiss and Aerosoft's A340-600 products have their own hydraulic, actuator and control-law modeling. A modeled actuator can float or jam without producing a corresponding movement of a passive sidestick. The -300 and -600 retain distinct airframe and engine scope.
The selected implementation
JARDesign's XP12 generation has custom control/hydraulic/electrical/autoflight systems and stated simplifications. Its XP11 downloads remain separate.
About the values
The gains are normalized profile settings. They describe the chosen effect balance; hand force depends on the device and its output limits. IAS references are tuning values rather than operating limits. Physical acceptance of this revision remains pending.
Master gain & control system
Master gain85%
De uiteindelijke totaalschaal over alles wat het model produceert, vóór de apparaatbegrenzing.
Meer: alles (veer, belastingen, effecten) wordt samen sterker.
Minder: alles wordt samen zachter.
Waarom hier: Scales overall profile strength while preserving effect balance, subject to device and output limits.
Forces
Spring strength55%
De basiscentreerkracht die de stick terug naar het midden trekt. Elke andere kracht stapelt hierop. Te laag en de stick voelt slap in normale vlucht; te hoog en hij vecht tegen je hand en maskeert de kleinere signalen erbovenop.
Meer: een steviger centreren dat de hand meer weerstaat.
Minder: een slappere stick die alleen op aerodynamische belasting leunt.
Waarom hier: The selected fixed spring approximates passive sidestick resistance; actuator hinge moments are not passed through as direct hand forces. The baseline spring is 0.55. Low-speed spring blending is off.
Cockpit and flight control familiesA340600Pro, versions, variants and downloadsA340 Airliner for MSFS-2024A340 600Spring deadband1%
Een kleine neutrale zone rond het midden waar de veer stil blijft, zodat minieme bewegingen in rust niet ratelen. Breder is rustiger maar losser; smaller is preciezer maar kan rond het midden trillen.
Meer: een rustiger maar losser midden, met meer speling.
Minder: een strakker midden dat in rust kan trillen.
Waarom hier: Sets travel around the centre before the baseline spring resists. Smaller values engage it sooner.
Forces · Center starting force0.03
Waarom hier: The centre preload is 0.03. It ramps outside the 0.01 deadband across 0.05 travel, shaping the passive centre independently of aircraft autotrim.
Forces · Center starting force transition0.05
Waarom hier: Sets the travel used to ramp in centre preload. Wider intervals make its onset more gradual.
Overall aerodynamic load0%
Een masterschaal over beide aangehouden asbelastingen, toegepast vóór hun onafhankelijke balans. Profielen laten dit normaal met rust en stemmen de twee asbelastingen af.
Meer: beide assen laden zwaarder.
Minder: beide assen worden samen lichter.
Waarom hier: The stored 0 aerodynamic-load gain is inactive under the fixed-centre control law.
Airspeed blendingFalse
Schakelt het lage-snelheidsvenster van de veeraangrijping in (start/vol-knopen hierboven). Uit betekent een constante veer op alle snelheden.
Waarom hier: Allows baseline spring strength to rise with indicated airspeed where the control law permits it.
Low-speed spring floor55%
Hoeveel van de veer overleeft bij stilstand, voordat luchtsnelheid aerodynamische kracht kan opbouwen. Een hoge vloer houdt de geparkeerde stick stevig; een lage geeft het losse, kabelslappe gevoel van een geparkeerd licht vliegtuig.
Meer: een stevigere stick geparkeerd en tijdens taxiën.
Minder: een slappe stick geparkeerd die pas met snelheid ontwaakt.
Waarom hier: Sets low-speed spring strength as a fraction of baseline when blending is enabled. One keeps full strength.
Spring engagement start8 kt
De snelheid waarbij de veer vanaf zijn lage-snelheidsvloer richting volle sterkte begint te klimmen: de besturing die 'tot leven komt' tijdens de startrol.
Waarom hier: Sets the IAS where the low-speed spring blend starts rising. This is a feel threshold, not a flight limit.
Spring engagement full65 kt
De snelheid waarbij de veer volle sterkte bereikt. Tussen het begin en dit punt wordt het centreren geleidelijk steviger naarmate de luchtstroom over de roeren groeit.
Waarom hier: Sets the IAS where the low-speed blend reaches baseline strength; high-speed stiffening also uses it.
Snelheid voor krachtafstemming250
De aangewezen snelheid waarbij de aerodynamische belasting haar ontworpen volle niveau bereikt. Hij verankert de hele belastingscurve aan het echte snelheidsbereik van het vliegtuig: een 172 laadt op tegen 110 knopen, een jet veel later.
Meer: belastingen komen later; de stick blijft langer licht.
Minder: belastingen komen eerder en de kruisvlucht weegt zwaarder.
Waarom hier: Sets the IAS reference for aerodynamic loading. It is an estimate, not published cruise TAS or a flight limit.
Centre firmness vs speed0%
Hoeveel het centreren zelf met snelheid verstijft, bovenop de uitslagbelastingen. Nul houdt het middengevoel constant; meer laat de stick harder centreren op kruissnelheid en losser in het circuit.
Meer: een midden dat duidelijk verhardt met snelheid.
Minder: een constant middengevoel op elke snelheid.
Waarom hier: Adds permitted spring resistance above the full-blend speed. Zero removes this high-speed increase.
Centre stiffening cap2
De bovengrens van snelheidsgedreven centreerverstijving, zodat zeer snelle vlucht de veer niet onbegrensd kan opwinden.
Meer: meer totale verstijving toegestaan op hoge snelheid.
Minder: de verstijving stopt eerder.
Waarom hier: Limits the squared airspeed ratio used for high-speed spring stiffening; it is not a device-force cap.
Aileron load100%
De aangehouden rolbelasting uit rolroeruitslag en snelheid, onafhankelijk van pitch gebalanceerd. Samen met de hoogteroerbelasting bepaalt dit de stuurharmonie waar recensenten het over hebben.
Meer: zwaardere rolkrachten.
Minder: lichtere, levendigere rolroeren.
Waarom hier: Roll and pitch aerodynamic scales are 1 and 1, respectively. These stored weights do not create directed aerodynamic loading while that term is inactive. The pitch spring-travel curve reaches output 1 at input 1. The roll spring-travel curve reaches output 0.3 at input 1. Spring-travel response contributes separately to axis balance.
Elevator load100%
De aangehouden pitchbelasting uit hoogteroeruitslag en snelheid, onafhankelijk van rol gebalanceerd. Dit is de hoofdhendel achter het pitchgewicht van een type. Hij raakt rolroer-, veer-, trim- of buffetkrachten niet.
Meer: zwaardere aangehouden pitchkrachten op snelheid.
Minder: een lichter hoogteroer, minder spierkracht om vast te houden.
Waarom hier: Scales pitch aerodynamic loading; pitch spring travel and trim responses are separate settings.
Max output force55%
Een plafond op elke gestage pitch- of rolkracht voordat die het apparaat bereikt, ter bescherming tegen beuken of verzadigen van de hardware bij stevige manoeuvres.
Meer: hogere gestage krachtpieken vóór afkapping.
Minder: een zachter plafond; harde manoeuvres vlakken eerder af.
Waarom hier: Caps directed-force output. Native spring effects and device limits remain separate.
Trim
Trim relief (elevator)0%
Hoe sterk hoogteroertrim de vastgehouden pitchkracht verlicht en verschuift waar de stick tot rust komt. Op 100 % heeft een goed getrimd vliegtuig geen vastgehouden druk nodig, de trim-de-last-weg-werkwijze van echt vliegen.
Meer: trim neemt meer vastgehouden kracht weg; op 100 % heft volle trim hem op.
Minder: je blijft kracht houden, zelfs getrimd.
Waarom hier: Normal-law automatic trim changes the aircraft's stabilizer state independently of the fixed hardware centre. Pitch relief is off, with stored authority 0; roll authority is 0.
Cockpit and flight control familiesA340600Pro, versions, variants and downloadsA340 Airliner for MSFS-2024A340 600Trim relief (aileron)0%
Dezelfde verlichting voor roltrim. De meeste GA-types hebben geen echte rolroertrim, dus dit blijft op nul; types met roltrim krijgen een passende waarde.
Meer: roltrim neemt meer vastgehouden kracht weg.
Minder: roltrim doet minder.
Waarom hier: Scales supported roll-trim relief and permitted centre movement. Zero removes roll response.
Effect gains · Ground
Runway rumble0%
Rollende oppervlaktetrilling uit wielsnelheid en ondergrondtype: asfalt, gras of grind onder het onderstel.
Meer: een sterkere oppervlaktetextuur in de stick.
Minder: gladder taxiën.
Waarom hier: Sets rolling texture strength, modified by speed, surface and undercarriage configuration.
Gear bumps0%
Korte losse stoten van uitzetvoegen, sporen en ruw oppervlak, die het doorlopende gerommel accentueren.
Meer: scherpere stoten van voegen en sporen.
Minder: zachtere gronddetails.
Waarom hier: Sets gear-bump texture during ground motion, separate from touchdown impact.
Effect gains · Airframe
Stall buffet6%
Casco-schudden bij het naderen van de overtrek en terwijl de overtrekwaarschuwing actief is: hoe luid deze vleugel aankondigt dat hij ontevreden is. Types met een scherpe afbreek krijgen bescheiden buffet en laten de hoorn de waarschuwing dragen.
Meer: een sterker trillen vóór de overtrek.
Minder: een discretere vleugel; de hoorn draagt de waarschuwing.
Waarom hier: Sets stall-buffet strength. Zero removes the cue without changing simulator stalls or warnings.
Mach buffet6%
Transsoon buffet bij het naderen van de Machlimiet. Betekenisvol voor jets nabij MMO, nul voor zuigers en turboprops die er nooit komen.
Meer: een sterker transsoon buffet nabij de Machlimiet.
Minder: gladder vliegen op hoge Mach.
Waarom hier: Sets high-Mach buffet strength; onset and full-strength thresholds are separate.
Flap buffet0%
Laagfrequente casco-trilling met kleppen uitgeslagen in de luchtstroom, in het snelheidsvenster waar ze de lucht echt bewerken.
Meer: ruwer vliegen met werkende kleppen.
Minder: zachtere naderingskleppen.
Waarom hier: Sets flap buffet at the configured position and speed gates. Flap movement texture is separate.
Gear buffet0%
Casco-getrommel van intrekbaar onderstel dat in de luchtstroom hangt. Nul voor types met vast onderstel, waar het casco nooit van vorm verandert.
Meer: meer getrommel met het onderstel uit.
Minder: schoner vliegen met onderstel uit.
Waarom hier: Sets gear aerodynamic buffet; movement and ground-contact cues are separate.
Stick shaker50%
De speciale stall-stickshakerzoem, geactiveerd door het eigen overtrekwaarschuwingssysteem van het vliegtuig. Alleen types met een echte shaker krijgen een waarde; de rest steunt op aerodynamisch buffet en de hoorn.
Meer: een hardere shaker.
Minder: een discretere shaker.
Waarom hier: Sets triggered shaker strength; inactive while the shaker feature is disabled.
Effect gains · Engine, mechanical & drag
Touchdown thump0%
De eenmalige dreun als de wielen de baan raken, geschaald op daalsnelheid: een zachte landing fluistert, een stevige aankomst bonkt.
Meer: een hardere dreun bij de landing.
Minder: zachtere aankomsten.
Waarom hier: Sets landing-impact strength; landing telemetry and response shape determine the pulse.
Reverse rumble0%
Uitroltrilling terwijl reverse thrust of props in beta werken. Nul voor types zonder reverse.
Meer: ruwer uitrollen onder reverse.
Minder: een discretere reverse.
Waarom hier: Sets reverse-thrust vibration with valid reverser and engine conditions. Zero removes the cue.
Engine rumble0%
Doorlopende motortrilling die het toerental volgt tussen stationair en vol vermogen, de altijd aanwezige herinnering dat er voorin iets brandstof verbrandt.
Meer: meer motor in de stick.
Minder: een discretere motor.
Waarom hier: Sets estimated engine vibration using configured telemetry and response, not measured cockpit vibration.
Flap motion0%
Doorlopende trilling alleen terwijl de sim meldt dat de klepvlakken daadwerkelijk bewegen. Volgt echte actuatorbeweging en storingen, geen geschatte timer.
Meer: meer trilling met bewegende kleppen.
Minder: discretere klepbewegingen.
Waarom hier: Sets texture from observed flap movement; a command without movement does not establish the cue.
Autopilot follow
AP follow authority10%
Hoe ver autopilootcommando's de stick fysiek mogen bewegen. Piepklein gehouden in MSFS, waar een bewogen as kan worden teruggelezen als pilooteninvoer; nul schakelt volgen volledig uit.
Meer: de autopiloot beweegt je stick zichtbaar meer.
Minder: een nauwelijks merkbaar volgen.
Waarom hier: Sets admitted AP-follow gain, not a percentage of travel. Runtime ownership and input limits still apply.
Spring response
SpringResponse · Travel enabledTrue
Whether this feature is active in this profile.
Waarom hier: Applies the configured pitch and roll spring travel curves.
SpringResponse · Output1
Waarom hier: Sets response at the second pitch-curve point; it is an endpoint only if its input position is full travel.
SpringResponse · Output0.3
Waarom hier: Sets response at the second roll-curve point; its input position and other points determine the travel law.
Stick feel
StickFeel · Trim feel enabledFalse
Whether this feature is active in this profile.
Waarom hier: Retained for compatibility and group membership. Trim relief, rather than this flag, controls centre movement.
StickFeel · Trim relief enabledFalse
Whether this feature is active in this profile.
Waarom hier: Allows trim relief with supported control law and valid telemetry. Axis authorities set its amount.
StickFeel · Force trim enabledFalse
Whether this feature is active in this profile.
Waarom hier: Enables local force trim, separate from aircraft-owned trim and add-on integration qualification.
StickFeel · G load enabledFalse
Whether this feature is active in this profile.
Waarom hier: Allows load-factor changes to modify permitted spring laws. Passive fly-by-wire feel can suppress it.
StickFeel · Rate damping enabledFalse
Whether this feature is active in this profile.
Waarom hier: Enables rate damping with the configured coefficients and control law.
Autopilot
Autopilot · Follow enabledFalse
Whether this feature is active in this profile.
Waarom hier: Autopilot following is off; the configured spring and load retain the hardware feel. Separate neutral hold is on at strength 0.28, when a supported autopilot state admits it.
Autopilot · Neutral hold enabledTrue
Whether this feature is active in this profile.
Waarom hier: Permits centering hold during a supported AP state, separate from following a moving target.
Autopilot · Neutral hold strength0.28
Waarom hier: Sets admitted AP neutral-hold strength; inactive while neutral hold is disabled.
Aero
Aero · EnabledTrue
Whether this feature is active in this profile.
Waarom hier: Enables aerodynamic cues; each still needs nonzero strength and its simulator conditions.
Aero · Max flap index3
Where this effect reaches full strength (or has fully faded, for washouts).
Meer: a more gradual build to a later peak.
Minder: a quicker build.
Waarom hier: Sets the final flap index for detent normalization. UP plus three detents uses maximum index3.
Aero · Min flap index2
Where this effect begins fading in.
Meer: the effect begins later.
Minder: it begins earlier.
Waarom hier: Sets the first flap detent that admits buffet; this is a handle index, not degrees.
Aero · Shaker enabledFalse
Whether this feature is active in this profile.
Waarom hier: Permits shaker at supported warning conditions; the switch does not establish aircraft equipment.
Ground
Ground · EnabledFalse
Whether this feature is active in this profile.
Waarom hier: Enables ground effects; each still needs its own strength and contact or motion telemetry.
Engine
Engine · EnabledFalse
Whether this feature is active in this profile.
Waarom hier: Enables engine cues with nonzero settings and valid running-engine telemetry.
Mechanical
Mechanical · EnabledTrue
Whether this feature is active in this profile.
Waarom hier: Enables accessory cues with configured strengths and observed accessory movement.
Mechanical · Gain0
The strength of this effect.
Meer: a stronger effect.
Minder: a weaker one.
Waarom hier: Sets texture from observed gear movement, separate from aerodynamic and touchdown effects.
