Wow.....that's for sure not the right way to engage "your* team. But yes....someone is responsible and has to make sure that everybody (management and team) is willing to head into the same direction.... We surely do not know wich direction that is, what quality standards they gave themselves and when product are "seen as ready" for release. I find the post incl. the statement to A350 and their feedback to the community very transparent and it shows me they are willing to read and act upon the customers wishes. And now we should trust them they deliver what they are pretending to tell us, although it's always a bit high level. But as I said.....trust..... I myself was not happy with their a320 neo..... And other products , except airports, I don't possess. Regards, Marcus P.

The A350 has no short or medium routes, it's made for routes even as long as 16 (!) hours. Air Cairibes flies them regularly between Paris Orly (LFPO) and Guadeloupe (TFFR) and Martinique (TFFF) which is about 7-8 hours. Being on one of those flights is what warmed me up to the 350.

BA sometimes do it on a Triple 7. Only the other day did BA put a Triple 7 on LHR-GVA route. Edited July 8, 20241 yr by carlanthony24

Always the same (stupid) argument. Where is the immersion of a long haul flight if you let the PC run overnight to do so, or doing whatever else and basically stay away from the PC for several hours and let it run? Come on, it already kills the immersion if you go to your table and eat lunch during a long haul flight, so why the heck should using simrate be anything more of an immersion killer? Or the other way around: why is it more immersive to perform a totally unrealistic short haul flight with the A350 compared to a realistic long haul flight but using simrate?

Because short hauls in a A350, B777, B787, A330, B747, A380 would be more realistic in real time rather than flying at warp space shuttle speed completing a ridiculous long haul flight in an hour. That is my opinion. You worried about saving time doing a long haul don't do it in the first place. Edited July 8, 20241 yr by JBDB-MD80
July 8, 20241 yr Alright can we just agree that any decent long haul addon needs to give the option for sim rate? You can still do whatever you want, flying 1 hour routes in a very light aircraft day in day out. For transparency: I'm a community mentor at the BATC discord. However, I do not get paid for it in any way.
July 8, 20241 yr Would like to see a return of the 'jump-ahead' feature. It moves the aeroplane to a specific waypoint, while simultaneously removing the appropriate amount of fuel that would have been burned and correctly change the time of day being displayed by the sim negates the use of sim rate time compression. We had this feature in the QW 787 and It would be great for long-haul airliners themselves or for MSFS2024 to natively offer this very useful capability. The current teleport in MSFS2020 isn't robust enough. //42 Flow teleport and FSiPanel 'move aircraft' don't change fuel loading, nor the time of day. 'Jump-ahead' is far less time consuming than flying long-hauls at 2x or 4x time compression and avoids flying at warp speed.

July 8, 20241 yr If I want to do a long-haul, I'll take the time (very very rare these days) and actually do a long-haul - following a real-world flight. If I don't have the time (and I usually don't), I'll try to find a realistic short route that is done with a "long-hauler". I neither use time compression or "jump ahead" features. But, to each their own.

If so, this is the dream plane I've been waiting for next to my beloved PMDG 777! The A350 XWB is an advertising term (it means eXtra Wide Body (compared to the 787)). The official name is the A350-900 or A350-1000. In terms of the flight deck, it is a development of the A380 flight deck. I too am also looking forward to the A350, having been part of the original design team. I don't understand the negativity to iniBuilds - the A306F is my go-to aircraft when I'm flying virtual cargo flights. I think that it's great. Edited July 8, 20241 yr by Peterwk editorial
