FSX-MS FSX for airbus

[Paul12 2]

Is there a flight simulator for Airbus aircrafts ? Hopefully the quality similar toe PMDG-737

What would you recommend ?

Thanks

The best one is the FSL A320 (it's pricey, but it's the best one you can get). The older Aerosoft one works in FSX (not the new one, so be careful which one you look at). Alternatively there is the Black Box Simulations one - there is a free demo of that available, so you have nothing to lose in trying it.

Comparison of video them I made some time ago:

If money's no object, then the FSL one is the one to have, it's amazing. After that, it's a toss up between the Aerosoft one and the BBS one. Try the demo of the BBS one and see if you are happy with it.

Chock is spot on there, worth bearing in mind the FSL product NEEDS a beefy system to run well. If you're thinking of upgrading your pc then steer clear of that until you do so! 

If you use Twitch you will often find streamers using all of these aircraft and its a great way to see what they look and fly like before purchasing.

Might also consider the freeware Project Airbus with FD-FMC, it's very nicely done. The CDU is not especially realistic but still it's impressive for freeware.

Or maybe the old Wilco/Feelthere Airbus. Before you say it's developed for FS9, I use it, and I've found it to be more stable in FSX than FS9. For widebody, this could be an option also. For narrowbody, I prefer Aerosoft. It's simply better done (when compared with everything but FSL).

Flightsimlabs Airbus is the best regarding system simulation but is also very, very power and memory hungry. In 32 bit FSX I recommend to use „Steves DX 10“ Fixer If you do not want to risk to many out of memory failures (OOM).

I had the best experience with Aerosoft´ s A320/321. It is not study level, but a performant, reliable and graphically satisfiing Addon.
