Any idea if these updates have made it to the marketplace? I think that’s where I bought this one.

This is my view exactly. I have no problem paying extra for the service when it’s warranted, but not as a standing monthly fee regardless of how much I do or don’t use it. Summer simming is relatively rare for me unless it’s raining out, I try to spend as much of our short summers outdoors as possible.

Awesome! I believe I called Kennedy Steve back on the original announcement thread 😀 I look forward to learning more.

Wow I completely forgot this was in development, will look forward to first impressions.

It really is. I flew YYZ-YXE last night and performance was great, right inline with other detailed addons. Hopefully they can figure out why it’s so poor for some people.

I do recall during the 2024 total eclipse people were able to see the effects, though if I recall correctly you don’t get the cool corona effect visually, I think it’s more just the light level dropping and you see a chunk of the sun missing.

Enjoy! I’m having a lot of fun with it and I hope you do too.

Awesome thank you, it looks like resistance will be futile for this one!

Does this include a Croatian Air Force repaint? I need another fighter jet like I need a punch in the face, but this one sounds pretty awesome and after visiting Croatia a few years back I have a real soft spot for that country…I could see myself buzzing around the beautiful scenery and mountains in this.

I did two Air Baltic flights today, using two very nice flag inspired repaints from flightsim.to. The more I fly this aircraft and get used to its quirks the more I love it. Certainly some bugs to be squashed but not enough to get in the way of a nice afternoon of flightsimming. As an aside, I bought two Air Baltic hub/focus airports on sale 40% off at Contrail, Riga and Tallinn. Both very well done and will be excellent A220 destinations.

See I’m a plane AND train nerd so I’m good either way 😀 Maybe not right next to one though. I’ve always had a soft spot for the 767, I remember flying on one as a kid in the 80s when they were new to Air Canada (would have been a -200), so spacious for the time! I loved the Level D 767 and would love even more to see one in MSFS.

Same here, last night it told me my landing distance was a comically large number (I think 27,000 feet roughly). I know it was 36 degrees C at FLL, but that’s excessive 😁

I had the same thought. Maybe the screenshots just don’t do it justice.

Miraculously my internet was working when I went home, so I bought the plane and went for a short flight YYZ-YOW. On the performance concerns, while I recognize I'm a bit of an edge case with a 5090, it didn't seem noticeably worse on performance than other airliners. I didn't encounter the noted issue with the route page tanking performance either so that's interesting. Overall as Ryan said above, an interesting and different aircraft, I managed to get it from point A to B, but definitely need to dive into some tutorials to familiarize myself with some of the processes and quirks of the aircraft. I seemed to have messed something up setting up the FMS as the thrust mode wouldn't change automatically. As far as I could tell, all weights, cruise altitude etc were entered correctly and fully but I'll have another go at it tomorrow.

As bad luck would have it, my internet failed overnight last night and they can’t get a tech out to figure out the fix until Thursday, so I’ll have to live vicariously through all of your forum reports on the A220 until then!
