Are we getting a fully funcional Airbus A330?

[jcomm]

I mean at release time?

I believe I read somewhere it will include the dual MCDU/FMGC?

That would be great for a default aircraft, making ir a study-level default airliner?

Laminar is reported to be still working on an Airbus type FMGC.

On the other hand, the A330 is already much harder on FPS than Zibo's 737, so with even more custom code thrown into the mix, things don't look too good. 😬

Really?  Oops, I haven't used it, so I couldn't tell the low fps ... That's not good to know... 

Well, let's hope they can optimize the final release versions and that someone as Zibo's creator can then MOD it to make it better 🙂

Well, it was already visually turned into an A330neo: https://x-plane.to/file/319/x-works-a330-900-neo-mod-for-laminar-a330-300

Compared to the default 737, the A330 looks much more complete in terms of cockpit controls and systems, so I'm not sure that a complete reimagination like Zibo's 737 is required (provided the default MCDU delivers something good). I figure the easiest starter mod would be an A330-300P2F, followed by an A330-200 (requiring slight flight software adjustments), then an A330-200F (mind the nose strut) and then the other engines (requires display logic rewrites and separate fmod sounds).
