I think the airbus just crashes the game (or freezes) literally anywhere in the world I can’t load in using an Airbus of any kind, though didn’t try Init request I bet it would do the same thing for me.

MSFS 2024 - Game instantly CRASHES when attempting to fly Airbus A320neo (v2) (Xbox Series S) - Bug Reporting Hub / Crashes (CTDs) - Microsoft Flight Simulator Forums

That topic I created and it is about the A320neo (v2) crashing or freezing the game every time I try and load in.

Problem fixed. Now there’s a new one. I haven’t been able to complete a flight outside of career mode because I get up to cruise and the engines fail!

What did you do to fix this?

I’m getting a problem where after pressing init request, the MCDU/knobs/buttons/lighting/screens all freeze.

It worked itself out after the update a couple of days ago.

I have the same problem with any iniBuilds Airbus in MSFS2024

I tried with an empty community folder, and it works no issue.

It must be some community folder addon that is causing this behaviour. But I’m not sure which addon is causing this bug. I’ve deleted all the utility type addons/navigraph data, but no to avail.

Unfortunately I’m on Xbox, so I don’t have the option of adjusting the community folder.
