So I think two weeks ago, there was screenshots in another thread of a possible release of the FBW A320 in the MSFS marketplace.  And I think someone in that screenshots thread mentioned the FBW A320 could be released in the MSFS marketplace (as a free add on of course) within one week.   So the FBW A320 wasn't released last week in the marketplace.  I take it that it's not ready yet, because of either technical issues or legal issues?  Anyone know any more information about the FBW A320 release for the MSFS marketplace?

There are some minor technical issues. But no show stopper. Marketplace release is still coming.

Im still looking forward to the WT LNAV implementation in the experimental build.

Any news on the experimental version? In the installer I see a new build # now, while the last 2 weeks or so I had no updated build seen...

I'm not able to give you any date yet. Since we're a community driven project and depend on the free time of our developers, we can't give any dates on releases.

Any one know if these guys are going to do the other airbus models  (319 321)?

Does anyone have an updated simbrief profile? In previous versions m16 for fuel burn was recommended, but the past 2 weeks I've been either diverting or landing with 700kg in the tanks. The last flight I went p10 with 45 min reserve and 5%, and it got me to the gate on fumes.

 

Edit: Could be a correct profile with incorrect MSFS live weather. I'll have to check predicted winds with encountered next time. My flights are usually 6-7 hours so accurate winds are important.

Really? I've been using one I got off flightsim.to and my fuel consumption has been suspiciously low - 90 minute sector, 2.5 tons burnt is about average for me despite Simbrief recommending 7 tons+ including alternate and finres.

I just used the simBrief profile from the video @Nicholas Jackson provided. Took a short ride from Hamburg to Munich. Seems pretty good.
(Didn't try our FBW own simBrief profile yet)

Here's hoping I can ever finish a flight without a CTD with 061, it's the only plane where I never finish a flight.

It used to be this way for me. I'd land with 11kg every time. I went as far as having no reserve, no taxi fuel, and m20 at one point and still landed with almost enough fuel for a round trip.

Since about 2 weeks ago I have the exact opposite problem. FMGS will predict 12kg at arrival, but when I get there, I have 500kg in the tanks OR I just give up and divert 500nm out.

I can't wait for proper VNAV.
