TOI Cabin Ready
TOI Cabin Ready is a FlyWithLua script that automatically sends the "Cabin Ready" ECAM notification for ToLiss Airbus aircraft, eliminating the need to manually press the FWD CALL button.
Background
- Developer: cxn0026
- Download: X-Plane.org
- Platforms: Windows, macOS, Linux (pure Lua)
- Compatibility: X-Plane 12
- Dependency: FlyWithLua NG+
The script automates two cabin-ready triggers:
- Departure: Initiates a countdown (4–8 minutes, scaled by passenger count) when the beacon light is turned on
- Approach: Sends cabin ready a few seconds after both flaps and landing gear are in the down position
Edge cases like go-arounds and through-flights are handled — in worst case, the FWD CALL button may need to be pressed manually or an unnecessary chime may sound. The script never cancels an existing cabin ready state.
Features
- Automatic departure trigger: Beacon-on starts a PAX-scaled countdown
- Automatic approach trigger: Flaps + gear down triggers cabin ready
- Go-around safe: Handles missed approaches without incorrect states
- All ToLiss aircraft: Works with the entire ToLiss Airbus family (A319, A320neo, A321/neo, A330neo, A340-600)
Value in Flight Simulation
The FWD CALL for cabin ready is a routine task that interrupts cockpit flow — especially during busy departure and approach phases. This script automates the procedure realistically (timing scaled to passenger count), letting the pilot focus on flying.
