FPL not loaded in MCDU A400M Inibuild

Hello,

New in MSFS2024 and trying to make Simbrief work in the Airbus A400M MCDU. All softwares installed, subscription unlimited and connected to Navigraph…

After my FPL is created, I imported it and the FPL is available in the EFB

Then from the MCDU I click on INIT REQUEST and nothing happens, with a message stating ERROR DOWNLOADING DATA

Did I miss a step ?
Thanks for your help.

Init Request usually fetches directly from Simbrief, not the built-in EFB.

I don’t have MSFS 2024, but normally there should be a tablet with a setting somewhere where you can enter your Simbrief Pilot ID.

For example:

In the Airbus A400M EFB options page, make sure you enter your SimBrief User ID number

On the MCDU, select INIT REQUEST to load the last Generated SimBrief plan:

Hello. My SimBrief user is entered and the FPL is loaded and visible in the EFB…. But the INIT REQUEST button doesn’t load it.

Loaded

Imported

No action when hitting INIT REQUEST

Hmmm. Check you have the SimBrief Pilot ID number entered (not username).

… and you are on SU3, correct?

Cheers,
Richard

Version 1.5.27.0, not sure if it is SU3 :wink:

Hello, no possible solution ?

Regards

Sorry, forgot to answer you …

You use SU3, so it should work. As Ian, I can’t reproduce it. Therefore, it must be something else that doesn’t work correctly.

Do you have any 3rd party addons/sceneries installed?

Cheers
Richard

I have some sceneries and the following aircraft:

Beech Shadow RMK1
BRM Design EMB121
CRJ SIM Rafale
Miltech M2000
Virga AlphaJet

And using MSFS_Addons_Linker

Thank you!

I have no knowledge with the Addon-Linker, but do you use it for the data too?

Cheers
Richard

No as NAVIGRAPH directly drops the data in Community. I use only for sceneries and aircraft (when they are not directly installed in Community folder).
One additional information, i have just installed MSFS2024 last week, so no pollution yet :slight_smile:

Do you have any firewall or antivirus installed that blocks potential traffic? I ask because I don’t see why this should not work.

Have you asked Inibuilds too? Possibly, they have more options for debugging than we do.

It should generally work so there is no malfunction in the A400. Sorry, but I’m at the end of my knowledge here.

Cheers
Richard

OK I understand your point… What worries me is that the FPL is available in both EFB (the one of the aircraft and the one in MSFS24) and not in the MCDU.
I will contact IniBuild and present the case there.

Thanks.

In case I have a solution, I’ll let you know

Regards

Bruno

That would be great, Bruno. Thank you. I’m also curious about what issue this is.

I’m the wrong person to answer what happens behind the scenes between the EFB and the Inibuilds aircraft, but I assume the Inibuild guys can help more here; at least you can expect a more professional answer than mine. Sorry about that.

Cheers
Richard
