I don't have the Wilco A380 installed anymore. Damn! Can someone send me the sounds from it??? If that's possible...

I copied over the Wilco panel and sound and first flight was LFPG-FAJS with no unexpected behaviour. Now performing the return leg and just about to cross into Congolese airspace.I am amazed that after all these years we are still getting quality freeware and payware addonsJohn

I tried the same thing, but noticed some oddities. The APU start actually starts the engines instead.

There should be one on the AVSIM libraries, which is by Horst Paetzold. If you can't find it there, you should be able to find it on FlightSim.com. Don't use the panel if it looks to simple though, some of Horst's gauges appear to come from the default 747-400. In the mean time, if you don't have Wilco's A380, the choice lies down to three choices:-The KM A340 panel-The MS 747-400 panel-Make your own panel using FS Panel Studio.

An Airbus aircraft with a boeing panel???? It would be like buying a Ferrari with Mercedes engine... What a sadness...No, joke apart, probably the best choice is to use the A380 panel from Wilco. Has it same lacks as for Wilco airbus family volume 1?Bye.

Panel Problems:Thanks loads for this fine contribution!So far, with the exception of the default alias MS747 panel, autothrottle/airspeed control has been impossible to me. I have tried the PSS panel, the KM A340 panel, and the rcs380f9 panel. The plane performs fine for hand flying, but airspeed has a mind of its own when trying to fly with the autopilot. Has anyone else had this problem? Sure am looking forward to the new panel designed specfically for this bird that is supposed to be imminent. Time for a bit of patience I guess.Respectfully:RTH

I might merge 2 panels together a380v1f9.zip and a380pv1.zip, both freeware, and also ad ISGsim to it. FMC will probably be the Smiths FMC cause I can't operate the other FMC.

"Also ad ISGsim to it. FMC will probably be the Smiths FMC".

I'm sure it would merge well with a good performance file. It merged well with my overlend A380http://www.air-source.us/gallery/gallery_photo.asp?id=67http://screenshotuploader.com/s/HHVMcbbqNl9/I should be uploading some great perfomance files the upcomming weeks for ISGSIM and FSBUILD.

Has anyone tried a380pv1.zip by Charrier Matthieu without FS crashing as it always crashes FS2004 when I selected it with PA A380.Mike

Hello Mike:Yes. Both the a380pv1.zip and the a380v1f9.zip panels seem to work fine for me. All I have done so far is fly a pattern and make an ILS landing with the autopilot provisions implementing each panel. Sounds like you may have a gauge, or gauges in a location it does not like. I did have to edit my installation location for "Program files (x86)" rather than simply "Program files" due to a 64 bit system.Now to add personal preferences like the ISG1 gauges/Smith FMC, rwyinfo, etc. I see that the panel about which you ask already has the RKG fuelstat and speed gauges which I install in all of my panels. Thanks for pointing me toward this panel.Good luck:RTH

I have been searching for A380 panel myself and found several, none of which satisfied me enough so I decided to make my own. I'm somewhere around 30% finished but haven't had time to attend to it for more than half a year.If I remember right, I've had crashes with one of the panels (it was the one having almost 50 MB) and the reason was this distribution refers to some gauges that are not included.

I'm just gonna use the Overland bitmap i think and use gauges from the 50mb file and the PFD from another A380 panel. And then retrofit with ISGsim stuff. Gonna be good for long haul flights i guess.
