So in roughly one week since release you have flown 100 hours? 14 hours a day? WOW! LOL

I was estimatiing. But i doesnt matter if its 100 or 75 hours. I did have a lot of fun flying it and can only recommend it.

Overall assessment: Don't buy (yet). And be vocal - no one of us wants them to relase the A350 in such a state...
 

Ok,.. It's a lovely air plane, please buy it! you'll get a lot of fun out of it. I haven't come across any issues what so ever.  Most issues are often operator errors...

[B777ER]

To be sure, there are issues with it that currently precludes me from using it. These were voiced to iniBuilds in Discord and to be fair, they are working on all of them. The ground effect in flare apparently is fixed for the next patch so for now, it’s back to the FBW A320 and HW A339

It's not about flying in US. You said you never had problem flying 300. I gave you one (no pun intended). You just got lucky not experience what many people do.

I suspect it depends on certain routes, one I posted above will show problem right away

Great that you're not having issues, but the above is not true. Most of the bugs that INI have actually acknowledged and are working on are nothing whatsoever to do with operator error.

It's clear that some have no issues and that others have major issues.  It's odd that there are always people who, on reading other people's problems, will always fire back defensively that the product is perfect and they must be flying it wrong!!

Especially when it's stuff like pause menu bugs...

Genaú!   How could that possibly be "operator error".

Basically A300 is unflyable. Autopilot doesn't follow the route, doesn't follow direct to, doesn't follow heading. I tried this route twice - no joy

KAUS/18R N0450F360 MUCKY3 MUCKY DCT JCT Q20 CNX DCT ZUN DCT HAHAA RKSTR3 KLAS/26L

I just flew this route with no issues whatsoever. It was in FedEx livery. Takeoff was rather “sporty” because I had an 11 knot tailwind, but I wanted to duplicate your route exactly, so I took off from 18R.

This was with version 1.01. I see that an update to 1.02 has just been released

Did you manually plug in to CDU or via simbrief? Mine was imported from sibmbrief. I tried twice with FSUIPC and without. 

P.S. I haven't tried latest update yet

I’m assuming we need an updated simbreif profile with the new weights ?
