For an initial release, i am super impressed !  The only concern i got is the performance and stutters. 

But i got no doubt that this fantastic team will handle it. 

 Thank you for an amazing plane FBW team ! 😍

Having difficulty getting the AP to engage - any trick to this?

T45

Nice release! The best A380 for a flightsim, thanks to the FBW team! I look forward to seeing if the iniBuilds A380 will be better than this!

Keep refreshing the page, British Airways and Singapore Airlines just arrived.

Very nice AC, the only issue i got is when approaching the rwy, the aircraft is like floating, very hard to manouavre back to the centerline. Is this normal?

Jebus nearly 1900 A380s on Volanta, and 473 on VATSIM

Just took off. Delivery flight from Tolouse to Munich as Lufthansa.

What a beauty. If you are familiar with Airbus most of it is self explanatory. Took me a while to find the ignition switch... 

 

And considering how she flies I'd say Aerosoft has to vow to NEVER release an in house Aircraft prematurely again.

I would say with a high margin of safety that this is the biggest community achievement in the history of Flight Simulation as a whole, and not even by a small margin. 

Simbrief is overloaded, I can't even log in to make a flight plan.

I agree. It's mindboggling for an Alpha release already. Considering that it will continue to be improved it is really indescribable how big of an achievement this is.

 

What I hope for the most is RNP implementation, a FIX page and the various DCT like Radial in out and Abeam. We have been waiting for it in the NEO for years and there seems to be very little progress with it. I really hope the release of this Alpha is the boost that the contiunous development of the Flybywire Avionic Suite needed to get all those missing features finally done.

Ensure that you use the proper setting for sensitivity:

I've never had to change my sensitivities other than originally.  My question.  Are sensitivities saved as aircraft specific, or will it overwrite my other aircraft profiles also?

Was curious about the 8K Version's performance.....umm yea 4K version it is.
8K only for showcasing🤣 Beautiful FREE bird though! Thank you FlyByWire Team!🍻
