Well according to a post on the FSElite comment section, this screenshots shows the A340 under FBW "normal law" allowing the plane to enter a spin 🙄

Over to you, ToLiss + Aerosoft.

 

Not surprised. Got burned with their A350. They'll now keep telling everyone that they had real pilots test the thing and this is all correct and as expected. Then, in about 6 months after patch 247 they start to fix some of the things. The A350 still feels super weird when hand flying and I'd eat my hat if that is actually how the real aircraft feels when hand flying.

Their EGLL Premium has had a broken T3 with missing buildings for about half a year now. It's been repeatedly raised by various people on their forums. Every 4-5 weeks they say "they're looking into it" or "they're following up again" and then nothing. That's their business model.

I’m tempted, but I really hate this aircraft in the real world.  Cramped and NOISEY.  Was supposed to fly SFO to Heathrow in 787 but instead we got dumped into the A340 (Virgin Atlantic).

But, I’m so very curious on how loud this simulated version is from the cockpit.

that must of been a while ago, and ps they took the crew rest off it too on quite a number of flights  (like the a332 and 333) ... Grrrr

as mentioned before, noone liked working on the 343, its was horrible

someone make a video not a screenshot. 

FPS is terrible though, I was doing CYVR to CYYC, was only getting ~23FPS for most of the flight, even at cruise.

CPU main threading, not graphics performance as lowering my settings did not improve FPS.

Switched to SU4 beta, got a little over double the FPS.

my honeycomb is incompatable every time I goto idle engines shut down, electrics turn off it's a complete kill to all

You probably have a binding conflict, check that your throttles aren't also bound to Mixture or something similar.

Got it, flew a short LPPR - LPPT.

Great!

Smooth as silk!

I'm GLAD !!!! 🤩

Same here. KPDX - KSTL. FPS in the 60’s no FG.  Smooth and fluid throughout the flight.  Auto land worked and worked well.  Not a bad V. 1.0 release at all.

YMMV, TANSTAAFL,

Yep.  Love it.  Amazing performance on SU3, smooth as silk, no issues.  Yes - Running 4K, TAA, Say Intentions, GSX and all full steam payware sceneries etc etc etc.

Modelling is AAA and those CRTs are just goodness.

The anti Ini bots are out in force today. I won't get it myself as I enjoy the A350 way more and will wait for the A380.

assume they didn't expose the MCDU like they didn't in their other planes?  Meaning those of us with external MCDU's can not have them display the plane's mcdu?

I hadn't thought of that...I just assumed (obviously incorrectly) that most third party vendors would expose the MCDU/FMC given the hardware thats currently on the market. If the MCDU isn't exposed I won't be buying it.

Same.  One of the biggest things that keeps me from flying the A300

Bought it tonight, I will transfer it to the ini store whenever that becomes an option but in the meantime the marketplace purchase was issue free, certainly no reason to stay away from this IMHO.

Didn’t have time for a full flight tonight, I went through my normal Sim brief and preflight procedures and took off from JFK as if I was flying to Heathrow.

Overall, performance was decent, certainly in line with any other detailed airliners I have. It is very nice to look at certainly felt very heavy on takeoff and climbed like a goose with a broken wing as expected haha.  Sounds are quite nice.

There does seem to be some aggressive collision boxes in the cabin, which sometimes make it seem as if you’re running into invisible barriers.  Also, I found that any liveries I downloaded were being assigned to all four types, including both freighters and passenger versions, I’m not sure if that’s intentional or a bug.

all in all though first impressions are quite good. I’m looking forward to flying this as it’s something I’ve never really had a chance to fly in flight simulator before.

Does that mean Skalarki compatibility is pretty much a no go?  Big bummer if so.

Based on what I have heard yes.  The MCDU.  Though FCU's should work

This was posted over at Ini :

for anyone wondering, the mobiflight profile for the winwing fcu for the default inibuilds a330 works for the a340.
