for the Headwind installer see at https://headwindsim.net/installer.html

It should be available also at fs.to but so far I just see liveries there. plus I am using the headwind A330 and the installer anyway, so just installed through that and highly recommend it!

Stock is -10, Kuro is -8, this is -9.

Which is preferred, HW Installer or FS.TO?

I already have the installer for the A330-900 so I just used that.

It feels like the launcher downloads faster than fs.to to me

This is the 787-9. The stock is the -10, and the Kuro is the -8

I wonder if the Kuro 787-8 will be updated now.

I like the HW Installer.  Simpler 

Yeah the installer is the way to go. Click a button and 40 secs later the plane is in the comm folder ready to go.

It downloaded remarkably quickly from the Headwind installer.   With it being release day and this being highly anticipated, I was ready for losses of connection and very slow speeds, but it downloaded in 2 mins.

Does the GE version come with the custome engine sounds or do I need to download those from somewhere else? The way some streamers explained that it sounded like a separate file.
