I personally love the aerodynamic innovation Airbus is going for with the adaptive flap system. That should theoretically increase its efficiency by a huge margin, especially in nonstandard conditions.

The cockpit almost looks too luxurious with those huge displays! I like how the displays of the A350 have borders that are more defined and prominent, providing a sense of structure that the displays of the B787 lack. The various sections of the displays of the B787 look awkwardly fused without what used to be physical display edges.

The displays may look nicer but I will always prefer the beige cockpit over the grey, a reason I still like the 777 over the 787 or this new airbus.

Looks great,from an external perspective,but not really a fan of all that "Glass",in the CP!

 

Glass is the future though... I really like it in the Cirrus aircraft (even with fingerprints!):

Cirrus are so sexy....

I love the G1000! The cockpit of the SR-20 is very cool and well organized indeed, although I have always imagined the "side stick" to be very awkward to use.

So when are PMDG going to make the A350XWB?

 

In before someone makes a new thread asking this fatuous question.

I've flown it a little (not the one pictured hehe) the side stick is ergonomic, but I found elevator trim a little hard to get used to initially.

Are those trackballs on either side of the throttles in the 350 cockpit? To control those big crosshairs on the display above them perhaps? If not then what are those things?

 

PS Maybe Airbus should enter the flightsim market, they've already made the model. Wonder how many polys they used though

When can we see this beautiful bird for FSX? I was thinking maybe in couple of years mmm but yet again by that time prepar3d might take over in flight simulation an no more new aircraft such as this one for fsx.. :Thinking:

That thing's throttle lever looks like a automatic car's gearbox! In fact the whole thing has a very car-like style save all the avionics. Not cool man not cool planes are supposed to be too cool for that school =P.
