Aww that's too bad you're bored, perhaps you can reduce the boredom by not looking at any of these until the products are released? ... you might also want to think about the many developers who're both very good at, and have done, youtube-videos/announcements/previews/marketing *and* then have also delivered good products (including FBW), to get a clue as to how this A380 also might/will pan out. Thankfully for the rest of us this is anything but boring.

You can also technically download the aircraft, minus the art assets so kind of pointless unless you want to look at all the stuff offline. https://github.com/flybywiresim/aircraft Thanks for reminding me, indeed a fascinating inside look at the code development and progress. The pull requests (i.e. sets of changes for a feature/bug/etc) are interesting: https://github.com/flybywiresim/aircraft/pulls ... i.e. the latest one is the first implementation of auto brakes: https://github.com/flybywiresim/aircraft/pull/8516 Edited February 21, 20242 yr by lwt1971 Len 1980s: Sublogic FS II on C64 ---> 1990s: Flight Unlimited I/II, MSFS 95/98 ---> 2000s/2010s: FS/X, P3D, XP ---> 2020+: MSFS Current system: i9 13900K, RTX 4090, 64GB DDR5 4800 RAM, 4TB NVMe SSD

If I had to guess, the whole, "oh, and you need to rebuild whatever airport decides to accommodate A380s" was a key part of the downfall. IIRC, that's also a significant part of the reason the 777x has folding wing tips.

Well, not quite the whole airport, but I know what you mean. That, and the shift away from the 'hub and spoke' airline route model to the point to point one. Well, that's what Mentour Pliot says, and he should know. Edited February 21, 20242 yr by Paul K Surely not everybody was kung fu fighting. https://rationalwiki.org

Why do I get a feeling if they didn’t show any previews, he would complain about not enough communication. The good old flight sim forum world…
