Wow. That's pretty nice.


I think I'll get it when it comes out. Especially since I've ordered a pair of Rudders.

Skybird,thank you for the link.It looks nice but I think they have made a mistake not incorporating sids and stars into the fmgs.
Spike 88 you do not need to use your rudder pedals in normal jet operations.

It still is not complete, so SIDs and STARs still may be implemented. Note that some of the MFDs also are dead, the NAV screens. I mean including SIDs and STARs are standard for many Boeing packages and since FS9 their FMCs (or was that Airbus slang and Boeing called them FMS? I always mix them up) , I would be surprised if they do not include them here.

FS9 traffic control AI unfortunately does not know SIDs and STARs, it's approach vectoring always ignores them, and does not call them out.

Too bad this Airbus will not be released as a FS9 version. It'S FSX-only.

I have been looking at the news on their forums and the release date seems to be slipping backwards.They also seem to be sacrificing accuracy in replicating the aircraft systems

It would appear that the developer has some major issues and i doubt whether we will see this issued bug free before the autumn.

This was just announced a few days ago, but if it turns out anything like their concorde it should be pretty good.

So we have three versions of the320 under development:
Airsimmer-which promised to be a professional version,but has been issued as a buggy basic version to the annoyance of many.
Aerosoft-pretty to look at but it seams it is going to be an entry level version
Flightsim labs- again another professional version
The big question is which company will offer the best product and when will it appear?

I'm willing to place my money on the unknown with flightsim labs. They've got people on staff that used to work for PMDG and SSTSIM which makes for a darn good resume as far as I'm concerned.
