- GEN 1 Line push button is now functional

- MCDU PROG page now supports airport/runway for the Distance/Bearing function

- The FMS now also parses Custom Scenery/Global Airports/Earth Nav data/earth_nav.dat to get the best ILS placement.

- Cabin pressure and whether you are wearing the oxygen mask now ties into the "pilot felt altitude" dataref. Enable hypoxia in Xplane setting for maximum realism

- Texture rework from Matthew

Bug fixes:

- When using the fire extingushing bottles, the DISCH light now comes up at the right time.

- Fixed an issue with import of altitude and speed constraints in newer CFIP files.

- After entering the TO/FROM ICAO codes, the ALTN airport now shows "NONE" rather than red boxes

- When Pulling the SPD knob, the speed target synchronizes to the current speed.

- Fixed a bug to make sure that FBW system drops to alternate mode when in EMER ELEC configuration

- Fixed behaviour of the ECAM ALL button for repetitive pushes.

- Panning with right mouse click is now possible again.

- Support for 8.33kHz frequency spacing for VHF1 and VHF2.

- DECELERATE message in PFD if you pass the T/D without initiating the descent

- SatCom can now be toggled via ISCS and also be driven by the livery string, add the character T in the engine string. E.g. [CFMT] for CFM engines with Satcom, or [IAE2ST] for IAE engines, 2 overwing exits, sharklets and Satcom.

- Added the ENG x START FAULT caution message for start attempts without bleed air.

- VHF, VOR, etc volumes can now be adjusted directly from the pilot Audio Control Panel

- Implementation of the majority of ECAM status messages. 

- You can switch PFD, ND and ECAM around like in the real aircraft. (3D cockpit ONLY)

- Added display units as failure modes to the Fault injection screen

- Custom ground effect model to make landing flare more realistic. (You will have to retune your flare technique!)

Minor new features:

- Added option to synchronize baro settings between Captain, Copilot and ISI

- APU now runs for another 120s after switches it off to cool down as in real life. (Generator and bleed not available during this time.)

- Warnings for DOORS open is triggered now if you forget to close them before takeoff.

- New battery model allowing proper charge/discharge procedure and allowing APU start in air off batteries.

- The different engine types now also have the appropriate individual oil pressure, EGT and fuel injection time during startup. (Besides N1, N2, Fuel consumption and thrust which were already different in previous versions.)

- Addition of non-linear stick-to-command mapping for the FBW control laws to approach the reallife implementation even closer.

- Ice detection system to warn you of the impeding performance degradation if you don't switch on Anti Ice.

- Some visual tweaks from Matthew on wings, engine blades, windows and strobe lights plus addition of a SatCom Antenna. (Thanks!)
