Oh wow. Anyone might think they are getting that 319 out because the competition is about to release theirs too....

My thought exactly...giving a release date that close while stating they still have issues to fix with the MCDU, FMS and AP = future release delay or prematurely released product.

This all seems very familiar.  Been there, done that, (years later) bought the CRJ.

The CRJ was the first thing that came to mind when I read the article

 The third version of Prepar3d v4 has been released, now into 4.2 and yet to see the release of the AS Airbus for this platform,   Not sure if I need it anymore, I'm over it.

I know, I've been a fsl man since 3.35 the only reason  interested it in is the shared cockpit so I can have a four pack of Stella while my mate does the landing in GIB and I do the landing In Gatwick somewhat half cut. 

Now what would be nice and definitely worth a pack of Stella's would be the fsl 319, the qw 787 and the aerosoft 319 all to come on the same day.  That would definitely be worth a hangover

From the horse's mouth confirmed as 26th June 2018 http://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/topic/130620-aerosoft-a318a319a320a321a330-professional-preview-part-5/&page=62&tab=comments#comment-877912 (it's white text so you need to use your highlighter on it). Glad we'll finally have a sensibly priced A320 in P3D, and if you own the FSX version you just pay the price difference.

Why was this thread moved to Hangar Chat from the Prepar3d V4 forum? It's about an upcoming release for Prepar3d V4. 

I am thoroughly confounded.

I was very close to buying the FSL before the scandal hit. To each his/her own as to how they feel about it. But that decided it for me. FSL will never get my trust.

I've been waiting for this aerosoft bus since last may (I think it was may) when v4 launched. In v3 it was my go to aircraft, I didn't fly much else. In my eyes, personally, the aerosoft airbus has a solid reputation. I didn't follow the CRJ drama for 7 years or whatever it was, but I did buy it at launch, and well, since the upgrade to 4.2 I haven't bothered to install it. This news, and all the talk of the timing with the FSL 319, has me worried. If they release a half baked product it could hurt, significantly, the reputation of their airbus series. I'd prefer to have a delayed release with a solid product.

Either way, over the last year, I've migrated over to PMDG. Who knows, I might not want to fly the airbus much at all anymore....

The unique selling point of the Aerosoft Airbus is the connected flight deck feature.  I'm all over that like icing on cake.  I'm expecting a few issues but I'm confident AS will make good.  

As far as I'm aware the CRJ was not an in-house project and they had no control over the development.  I believe AS was only the publisher.  I think the Airbus is an in-house project and if you read Mathijs' commentaries,  you can easily deduce how seriously they are taking this.
