After setting the variables you must push Generate Loadsheet. There are two ways to load the data
(passengers, cargo and fuel) to the aircraft. Automatically if “Autoload with aircraft” is ticked or manually
using the MCDU2 LOAD/FUEL menu. The fuel will be loaded correctly, so the center tank will only be used
when the wing tanks are full, and the balance of the aircraft will be set correctly.
Note that every airline has its own layout of seats and additional equipment and every airline has its own
specific rules about fuel load. Even simple things and the Zero Fuel Weight can vary far more than we
expected. What we used is an average of many airlines and might not be spot on for your preferred
airline.
You will find the fuel planner (Livery Manager A318-A319.exe) in the C:\Users\your
name\Documents\Aerosoft\General\A3XX Fuel Planner.
LIVERY MANAGER
There are hundreds of liveries available for the A318/A319/A320/A321 and there is a simple livery
manager that will assist you in adding and removing them. You will find the livery manager (Livery
Manager A318-A319.exe) in the \Aerosoft A318-A319 Professional\Livery Manager folder. After starting it
will ask for the P3D folder.
Installing a livery is as simple as dragging the zip file you downloaded on top of the livery manager. For
90% of the additional liveries this will work. All other livery ZIP files that meet the following conditions will
be handled automaticaly (if this method does not work ask the livery designer to be compliant with our
standards):
• There must be a txt-file ("readme.txt" or different name as long as it's the only txt-file) with the
code snippet for the aircraft.cfg included.
• The snippet starts with [FLTSIM.X] and ends with a blank line.
• In this snippet the line "ui-type=*aircraft_type*" must be contained, otherwise the manager
doesn't know which plane the livery should be added to.
• Each ZIP-file can only contain one livery / alternative versions must be separated into two ZIP
files.
