ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Description of the issue:

Yesterday, I completed 3 flights from Lima to Cusco (SPJC - SPZO) with the A320N.

First flight: I noticed the autopilot stopped maintaining speed, causing the aircraft to go into overspeed and climb sharply until the autopilot disconnected. I tried everything to make it descend, but nothing worked.

Second flight (same setup): This time, the flight went smoothly, although I had to manually set the speed to prevent issues.

Third flight: The same issue happened again. As I approached SPZO, the autopilot randomly disconnected, and when it was working, for no reason, it started climbing despite the cruising altitude being correctly set. Even when I tried to command a descent at -3000 ft/min to force it, it refused to comply! It also went into overspeed. Frustrated, I even walked away for 10 minutes ^^. When I returned, the plane was still circling above FL500 :slight_smile:

I’ll also add that I set the altitude to FL290, but even after changing it to FL140 (after finally halting the crazy climb), the autopilot made the plane climb back to over FL500.

Regarding the A330, when trying to enter information into the aircraft, all the displays freeze! The plane can still fly, but nothing else can be done. This issue only affects the A330, not the A320N.

None of these issues happen with other aircraft. :confused:

I want to clarify that I’m not deliberately causing the issue or interfering with the system — there is a real problem here. When an aircraft’s autopilot stops functioning properly after a single interaction, that clearly indicates a bug, and I’m not the only one who has noticed it.
However, if every time we report this we’re told “No, it’s not a bug” and the report gets archived without any follow-up, it becomes discouraging to even report issues.
Especially when the root cause is fairly well understood and yet no corrective action seems to be taken

it’s frustrating and disheartening for those trying to help improve things.

It’s iniBuilds that needs to fix their aircraft! Otherwise, someone needs to explain why other aircraft work just fine -_-
