Well in your mind set running a car can be cheap but....it depends what car you want to run. Some will spent a few hundred pounds because it gets them from A to B and that's all they need, some will want more.

Look how many people on this forums run RTX 2080Ti and run overclocked CPU @5+ 4k etc, but yer its a misconception!!!! just like the price off the best addons. FSL PMDG ASP4 REX SF the list goes on but yer....... just buy a cheap PC and a carenado and away you go if you wish too, in the default P3D using the key board for control's with nothing else. yep flightsiming is cheap really!. if you want it to be ^^. 

I wonder how we were all simming in the 80s and 90s without all that fancy hardware and all the fancy luxury-priced addons.🤔

I don't need to be type rated to pull someone up on a flippant comment, use your own mind. The difference in a real Airbus doing something odd and a £40 addon with bugs in the programming showing its bugs then am not going to explain. Some people talk about the new AS A330 failing out the sky if there not on the case, AFK, well IRL pilots would be on the case does not mean it makes it real because the pilot has to take control does it.

Also real pilots pay and use the FSL to train and get type rated. Its that good and that's not because it has failures or is buggy. The simple fact that many real life pilots choose to do so, speaks for itself. 

I know and understand the point he was making but there is huge difference in a aircraft being programmed to act like the real one and a bug just being a bug. I am sure he knows that. Ask him to fly the FSL and ask the one that's most like the real thing.

The AS could not draw a route properly at one time and IRL the Bus sometimes does not but its was not because AS programmed it to do so, they asked people to report the routes so they could correct the bugs. AS did not make it so because its a IRL bug once in a blue moon.

Please list the current bugs the Aerosoft Airbusses have.

I’m not an airline pilot myself, just hold a PPL.

So in saying that, if i want a comparison between flying the real thing and what we simmers fly sitting at our desk, no offence, but I’ll take the word of someone who’s actually flown the bus over a simmer.
 

They can make a comparison between both, you and i can’t.

Really!. Then 99% of the people on these forum should make no comments. Might as well close it down then. Brilliant!

Watch flyboy and Blackbox there real world Airbus pilots currently flying, watch there steams and there POV on FSL and AS bus's.

 

The topic here is over a long time ago am out!

This A/C is my favorit. No doubt about that. Cheep and simple. You can fly the acft using only your keyboard and you can open the L FWD cabin door. Just hit F10. And finally; it is cheap. Only 7 USD!

Where can I find flyboy’s videos? I follow blackbox but not sure of where to find the other.

I actually prefer him to Blackbox ...

@thread starter:

 

If you just want to fly from A to B with the correct procedures, take the AS Airbus, they are great.

If you want more than that (simulate failures, try what happens if i do this and this...) then take the FSL.

 

I am happy with the Aerosoft Airbus for some short trips (1-2) in the evening after a long day of work. I dont want to learn more about the systems behind it, because i dont have time for it.

So, decide individual.

As has already been said, this advice is misleading.

I would always prefer the FSL over the AS for a simple and straight forward flight from A to B. The FSL is so much more immersive than the AS. And that has nothing to do with failures, trying this and that or learning about the systems behind it.

If you intend to spend a lot of time flying the Airbus, are willing to spend some money on it and can spare some FPS (on my system the FSL runs at about 10 % less FPS than the AS) go for the FSL. Otherwise the AS Busses are decent aircraft and the right choice.

I prefer the Aerosoft A320 over FSL (I have both). The reason is that the FSL model is very heavy on CPU resources. On my somewhat older system, there is nothing immersive about very low frame rates. With a newer system that might be different, but I would disagree with the statement that the FSL model is more immersive in general.

And this has nothing to do with your subjective impression of immersion. For me, the virtual co-pilot is much more immersion than a full fidelity system in the background would ever be.

Does the AS still have the active copilot that does some things for you?

Yes it comes with the Co/P courtesy of the FS2Crew addon. However, I do not use it, I prefer to run through the items in the checklist manually.

Actually, our Checklist and Copilot software is our own. We also include RAAS which is made by Bryan of FS2Crew.

Good to see you Shez!
