Respectfully disagree. It made a huge difference when I switched to P3D a few months ago. Performance, shadows, textures etc were all significantly improved. Best decision I made was to switch. But as you point out it is still 32 bit and still has VAS issues with complex add-on's.

Good call. I did a flight from London to Paris yesterday. Thought I added the fuel, but when I landed in Paris and exited the runway, I had 60kg of fuel left onboard.

Buy it. The Aerosoft A319 us my favorite passenger aircraft. Super easy to fly and learn. Comes with built in checklists and automated co pilot. If you start in turn-around status, all you really need to do is run the checklist and co pilot and sit back while they set everything up for you. You just need to set the trim, push back, do a controls check, start the engines and taxi. As you get more comfortable you can take more of the work. Once you can fly one, you can fly all the A318-321. There are plenty of videos on youtube you teach you how to program the flight computer. Once you learn the basis it is pretty easy as long as you have the route waypoints to key in. Finally there are tons of great repaints on the Aerosoft forum for all the airbuses.

I am waiting several weeks for people to "beta test" and flag any issues before I download myself.

The graphics look pretty good on the train sims. But personally for me they seem a little restricted. You can only stop at stations on your scenario. As it is a train, you obviously can not steer or go on your own way.

Thinking about giving Euro Truck Simulator 2 a try to create some variety from tanking around the skies in a jet. Does anyone else sim in other modes of transport? I.e. American Truck Simulator, Euro Truck Simulator, Farm Simulator, City Skylines, Fernbus etc? They all seem so cheap compared to the cost of flight sims and the numerous add-ons needed to support flying.

Another vote for SPAD.neXt

Looks solid. I have the 1070 card. It does the job well. Don't think it is worth paying the extra $$$ for a 1080. Make sure you get a SSD. My Samsung 850 loads windows pretty much instantly. Once the power button is pressed the log in screen comes right up.

This mirrors all of the reviews I have seen and why I did not purchase it myself. There seems to be a lack of quality bizjets for P3D.

I was thinking about getting it, but decided not to after reading the reviews on Simmarket. They were not that great.

I thought you can get the GTN750 in the new Iris PC-24??

Different strokes for different folks. I usually switch to manual about 5 miles out as I enjoy hand flying and find landing myself is more fun than letting the computer do it.

I dont know what the deal is with this company. Same every time. Their last release have a v 1.1 the same day as release. Why do they release unfinished products every time??

I just did a quick search of the AVSIM library. There is a repaint for the 777-300, didn't see one for the -200

You have the P3D and not FSX version installed right?

I have Windows 10 with P3D and Aerosoft Airbuses and no issues at all.... Hope I do not jynx it now!

Go to control panel> system and security > system From there you should be able to get the high-level specs and if you can provide those specs here people will be able to better give you advice and expectations for your system. The main compoments are the type of CPU and your graphics card.

If you have patience you can snag one on ebay for <$100. Just set up an alert and be ready to strike once one comes up.

For those who have downloaded Malaga and have no jetways, there is a known problem where the installer incorrectly names two files. Post 20 on the below link will give you what you need and a patch to fix it... http://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/topic/114886-malaga-installer-dont-ask-for-sode/&page=1

Ctrl + K worked - thanks! No idea how I managed to press that in the first place to turn it off. I figured it was something simple. You are my hero - thanks!

I will try Ctrl K later today, thanks. The axis and buttons are all good and correctly assigned within the controls menu.

Everything was running fine and then I load up a new flight and no good. The joystick is connected and shows up in the p3d controls menu, with axis assigned, I can calibrate etc. The hat works and I can pan around the VC, but none of the buttons or flight controls now work. I have tried multiple aircraft and airports and reset my computer several times, but still no good. Also if I switch to mouse yoke, that also does not seem to do anything to the flight controls and doesnt turn the aircraft. Any advice of what to do to fix this? I am wondering if I just knocked some random key which turns off flight conrols or something. ______ The only changes to my system was that I downloaded the new Malaga airport last night and was trying to figure out how to get SODE working.

Just downloaded it and fooled around for a few minutes. First impressions are that it is a great airport. The night lighting is pretty decent and the frame rates are excellent - right up there with Prague. Which is one of my best Aerosoft airports in terms of FPS. Also got to love an airport which includes a modeled Ikea next to it!

Yep, shame no P3D discounted. But a nice deal for someone with FSX.

Did they model much of the surrounding area? I always remember the San Miguel plant as you drive into the airport.
