....unless the developers intend to improve the complexity and realism themselves. How about you give them a chance before throwing them to the wolves?

Yup and didn't this reply age well.......

But is it worth $35 though? That is the same price as  PMDG 737-600 with full systems. I just feel like there is more capable payware aircraft in MSFS than to justify spending that Kind of money on addon that uses 90% of the default systems.

If you're referring to loading the flightplan, you have to wait a for it to fully populate, it isn't instant.

Also didn't he say many manual way points were coming back as not found in database?

At this point I really scratch my head why they just didn't continue to let 3rd party teams mod the aircraft.  Best of both worlds.  Those wanting something more complex are more satisfied, and those who don't are also satisfied.

We haven't forbidden any 3rd parties to mod the aircraft. We just said that we will stop direct collaboration in the meantime, as we are building the plane ourselves. Liveries uploads, mods etc are not forbidden by us by any means.

Thanks. I see there is a difference now. Appreciate you clarifying. Selfishly I wish you still were collaborating

Definitely not. But for those who use Xbox and want long haulers, this is your only choice for now. Same with Captain sim products.

Well if we get a half decent A340 out of this I am all for it as there is hasn't been one in any sim for a very long time.  As for the other airbus variants yes there are already too many and we don't need more (apart from the A380 hope we are still getting this from FBW).

Yep, that pretty much sums it up for me too. It would be great if FBW turned their attentions to the A340 after their 380 is done, but for now it looks like the LatinVFR is the only one in development. I really hope they do it justice.

LVFR just released their A330, Aerosoft is working on an A330, headwind has an A330, and MS2024 might have a regular A330 along side the A330 based BelugaXL.

People complain about all the A320 variants released or upcoming for the sim, but we also have a ton of A330s lol

Yeah, this initial release is for the Xbox crowd

How do you even operate this thing using a stupid xbox controller.
