Arvid Lumma Posted December 15, 2020 at 03:26 PM Posted December 15, 2020 at 03:26 PM Hey guys, Is there a way to cancel a direct to a waypoint via the mcdu in the Airbus A320? My sim is MSFS2020. Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lauri Uusitalo Posted December 16, 2020 at 08:20 AM Posted December 16, 2020 at 08:20 AM Select hdg mode and re-enter the necessary waypoints and do a new direct to the beginning. Not sure if MSFS supports this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Shearman Jr Posted December 17, 2020 at 10:33 PM Posted December 17, 2020 at 10:33 PM There is a freeware, community-driven project which modifies the stock A320 to make it more realistic. The MCDU in that should behave more-or-less like the real thing.https://github.com/flybywiresim/a32nx But, I agree -- there's no "Undo" button. You'd have to figure out which point or points you skipped over with the Direct, add them back in, and re-Direct yourself to the one you should be going to. Cheers, -R.

Sadly, I don't think it really changes the MCDU, it's more about the buttons etc. Many Systems like the Autopilot are still pretty broken. My question about the direct is answered tho, thanks again y'all 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koen Meier Posted December 17, 2020 at 11:04 PM Posted December 17, 2020 at 11:04 PM A good tip but I doubt the msfs version does it. Select abeam points when direct cause that way you can see to which points you are passing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It can allow you to see all waypoints present in your route. Sometimes things get complicated.
