Hi Pete,I have it and I am thoroughly impressed with the model which has had a couple of updates and is at v1.21If you are a fan of heavy system oriented aircraft like the PMDG MD11 or the JS41, Level D 767 then you may feel a little let down by the Airbus X although I have read they are considering a more complex in the future in addition to the base model for a price.The MCDU really isn't as much as a letdown as some people have written as SIDS and STARS programming is not in the current offering and some of the additional pages that we have become accustomed to are not modeled.In a nutshell I would say the exterior is modeled extremely well as there is quite a bit of detail and the lighting is second to none both in the cockpit and exterior... the landing lights are quite impressive.

I love it. Its not a complex PMDG, but for the casual flyer like myself its perfect!Highly recommended, and don't be put off by the comments in the AS forums, some people just like to moan for the sake of moaning

I would agree, while this is not a PMDG product that is almost good enough to become proficient in the real thing, it's a lot of fun, great sounds and even better graphics, especially the night lighting in the vc.Bruce.

tanks for the reply guys! I will hold off buying it as I really like the more complex aircraft such as PMDG and Level D.
