I’m afraid, unfortunately, that it’s a very basic A350, not expecting to have very advanced systems. It’s better than nothing but good...

Do you have insights into what iniBuilds are developing and how much they've developed so far with the A350? How did you come to this conclusion? If you have inside connections to iniBuilds then please do tell us more 🙂

Until they reveal more, those of us on the outside will have to go by their systems work in their XP and MSFS aircraft so far.. and per that, I'm expecting great systems in their A350 and far from "very basic"

.....Great announcement overall, Abu Dhabi will be a nice add to the sim. Tough timing for Leeds Bradford given ORBX just released a nice rendition.....

Maybe, but I was thinking about purchasing Leeds Bradford v2 from ORBx until I saw that flyer in my InBox. Those shots of the terminal interior look very nice, and next generation quality airports is one of the reasons why I decided to upgrade to Microsoft Flight Simulator. They also stated that two more UK airports are in the pipeline for 2024

Yes, true. But it won't sell so many with a fairly good freeware edition being out there as well. We all know the quality of FBW and what they are capable of.

Think XBOX and the Marketplace where the FBW will not be available but the Ini A380 most likely will.

Another image from the discord

The thought of this beautiful bird being in my sim with Delta, Air France and Air Caraibes liveries, this does bring a smile to my face.

Is there another A380 out there for any flight sim that's got good fidelity?

I think he was referring to the  A350 which there is one on X-Plane but the Fidelity I don't know.

Want to rephrase that?

They also mentioned having Type rated A350 and A380 pilots on their team.

If I understood things correctly Digital Flight Dynamics team which are also doing the A350 lost their (lead) modeller.

Maybe Inibuilds gave him an offer he could not refuse.

Yes! I was hoping someone would take this on....

You have absolutely no idea.

I got tingles when i saw the pictures. I dont need the failure modeling quite yet. Just give me the rest of the systems fully working with all the approach modes and that will do for me. ******* that plane is so beautiful !

I am so looking forward to this! Ever since Fenix raised the bar so much with their A320 (and I'm anxiously looking forward to their continued development and extensions), I have come to really appreciate what they and other devs do.

I do not plan on getting the PMDG 777, as I am not a fan of PMDG. So this is really good news for a long haul option other than the 787/747.

Plus, I do like the Airbus cockpit. Very exciting news and 2024 does look very promising indeed.

Now we need someone to develop a good ATL scenery please 🙏🏻

You're misunderstanding that image.

How am I miss reading the image? It says the 380 project is for Microsoft.

Microsoft Flight Simulator. Implying that it will not be released for X-Plane. If it were under Asobo, it would've been mentioned, or more likely, announced, by Asobo themselves.

Guys, can we stop piling onto someone for voicing their own, personal opinion that didn't hurt anyone? I think people are still entitled to that, and that's not fake info either.

Personally, I don't care for an A350 at all, but it's certainly good news that one is in the pipeline. However, the stance from several developers has thus far been that it's tough to impossible to make a detailed A350 because apparently Airbus keeps any documentation electronically and under wraps. So I do wonder about the simulation depth, if iniBuilds can build something deep purely out of expertise from pilots, or if they actually do have documentation. I think that's a question worth asking given the sentiment from other developers.
