November 11, 20241 yr Very weird decision by Lefteris. He knew about the Fenix back in 2020 when it was announced. The Fenix was released in the spring of 2022 so FSLabs knew the starting quality of it. Upon the release of the Fenix in the spring of 2022, there was ample speculation that Fenix would do the A321 and A319 next, because they were so similar to the A320. And after the sprimg of 2022, Lefteris still decides to proceed with an A321. That is an interesting business decision. Oh well, I hope FSLabs sells enough copies of it to break even. If they can get it onto the XBox without sacrificing any quality, they just might. But I get the feeling that FSLabs is targeting the PC market.

While I believe there is a real market for their NEOs, there is no way I would buy a “CEO base package” if that was required.

I would agree but needing a high fidelity Neo 320/321 along with LR/XLR then people will. I would be guilty. Edited November 11, 20241 yr by carlanthony24

It's ultimately Lefteris's decision. He is the CEO, right? And my understanding is, FSLabs is not a big company. Nobody else can greenlight a multi year project that ties up a significant amount of the company's workers for a small company like FSLabs unless it's the CEO.

November 11, 20241 yr I wonder if they'll announce it today. May as well come out with it so that we can see exactly what they have on offer and how much it'll cost. Editor-in-Chief at SimulationDaily.com
November 11, 20241 yr Let's just wait for the conclusions as I'm pretty sure Flightsimlabs guys might have a couple of aces up their sleeves. They are top tier devs after all. Matej Stavanja

November 11, 20241 yr They’ve surely been working on this for years, and my guess is they were hoping to release it ahead of Fenix. If it comes out soon, we’re only talking about a difference of a few months—but surely something that will have a huge impact on their profitability.

I unfortunately have to agree. Unless they come up with something revolutionary it will be hard to convince people to buy „another“ Airbus A32X…
