Hello guys
I have got a problem with my IFDG Airbus fleet A319/320/321. What I experience during a descent into an airport is that my speed is always too high. I set thrust idle but there is still a need for full speed brake. Does anyone of you know where I can change that? Maybe somewhere in the aircraft.cfg file?
Thank you very much!

You mention your speed being too high despite having thrust at idle – Try controlling your rate of descent with thrust and your airspeed by adjusting pitch input/angle of attack.

That is not the problem as I have a vertical speed of 1500 to 2000 ft/min.

Whats your vertical speed? Your descent angle could be too great to succesfully control your speed, requiring excessive airbrakes!
