When setting up the charts on the OIS, it would be nice if the zoomed saved/pinned chart kept its position and zoom when reopening the saved chart. During preflight we normally set up the charts and the zoom to desired position to reduce heads down during critical flight phases. On the IniA350 every time accessing a saved/pinned chart it needs to be repositioned and zoomed again. It does not remember the previous zoom and position. Just a suggestion. Chris

I do applaud Der Michel for taking the time and effort to dissect, test and analyze the A350. Clearly a very passionate, knowledgeable and dedicated individual. Keep it up! Inibuild, thank you for the update. Much appreciated. Keep up the great work you are doing.

Indeed, A350/S380 are very similar in terms of avionics. A350 being more advanced obviously. As far as A380 for MSFS, will not happen beyond the amazing FBW volunteers. Inibuild, if i was running the show, I would reach out to the FBW A380 freeware developers. Assist, if possible, in the further development of the iconic A380.

Nobody in the FlightSim world will ever go down the study level payware A380 route. The FlybyWire team have done an amazing job as enthusiasts and fans of flight simulation to simulate this iconic aircraft, for free. Inibuild, why don't your team assist the FlyByWire team on the A380, do it "Pro Bono". You have done an incredible job on the A350. You have the expertise and knowledge. Very similar to the A380 in terms of the FMC etc. FlyByWire guys need some assistance on the fmc side of things. Perhaps they got a few things they can share with your team as well for the A350? A380 is a beast of an airplane, iconic in many ways. C

There are a lot of mistakes indeed. It is however a next level attempt. I applaud the developers for going the mile. Taking the boat out. Taking a risk. Not an easy task. However, there will be people with Airbus experience voicing their feedback. I do applaud the team for listening and taking the feedback. A350, extremely difficult to simulate avionics wise. c

RNP approach v RNP AR approach. The FLS function becomes available if the crew selects a VOR, RNV, GPS, LOC or BAC approach on the FMS arrival page. LS pb pressed on the EFIS control panel. FLS capability appears on the FMA. RNP Approach operations corresponds to RNAV(GNSS) or RNAV (GPS) operations. Equipment needed: One FMS, One GPS, One MFD, Two IRS, related KCCU, One FD, One PFD on PF side and Two NDs. Procedure to fly this approach using F-LOC F-G/S. The FLS function can be used if the FLS capability is F-APP or F-APP + Raw. RNP AR on the other hand will NOT be flown using the FLS function. APP-DES and NAV will be the FMA indication. Lateral guidance is NAV and vertical guidance is APP-DES. LS Push button OFF. Long story short, RNP approach can be flown using FLS. RNP AR cannot be flown using FLS. Picture above is correct for a standard RNP approach. This is how it is on the A380. Would be surprised if it is different on the A350.

Gents, bit of a strange one. On latest Beta FS2024. I uninstalled and reinstalled the aircraft, deleted WASM etc. Upon loading the aircraft, nose gear/strut is missing. Nose gear door showing open. Cockpit displays are not starting up, all black. Engines are running but not spinning/rotating in external view. Tiller/rudder moves the aircraft, but no visual rudder/tiller movement in the cockpit. Side note, I see user "Der Michel" is taking his time and doing a phenomenal job picking up and giving valuable feedback to the development team and to the community. Much appreciated Sir. Phenomenal job and thank you. Christian A380 driver.

When flying on Vatsim, proceed direct to a point is an issue. The direct to function works borderline intermittently. Takes many tries to get it working. FS2020.

With the A350 released, any thoughts of the A380? Lots of avionics similarities....

The A350 is in many ways a switch in FS simulation. Going from the solid, old-school aircraft to a seriously modern sophisticated airliner. Difficult to simulate and replicate. I am mighty impressed by the Inibuild team. Yes, there will be teething problems initially. Feedback and information will assist in enhancing this product. The FMS on the real thing has over 70 pages, they got most of them working. That by itself is impressive. With time, feedback from the community and tweaks will undoubtedly mark this as one of the best and advanced products ever created for MSFS. Keep up the good work Inibuild. Tweak it, listen to the feedback and make this thing shine. If you are able to go the extra mile, syncing the ECAM to the FCOM level 2/3 notes on the OIT and the TOPA (Performance calculator). Next level indeed, as this is one of the many features of the A350/A380 that makes it different and unique. OPS Library (FCOM/FCTM, FCI, Bulletins, MEL) etc is indeed vital and used on a daily basis. Flying an Airbus is an exercise of manual searching, knowledge and comprehension. MSFS operational MELs addition to the TOPA would be just like the real thing. (Very rear for an Airbus to push without an MEL). System resets, pretty much a daily occurrence and done with FCOM/FCI guidance, hence the need for the OPS Library. The addition of the Loadsheet and refueling application to the OIT would be next. Trying to accurately simulate an Airbus A350 is a big ask. Amazing job Inibuild!

Are the normal checklists, correct? Airbus changed the checklists some time ago.

Don't get me wrong, I do think your team has done an incredible job so far on the A350. It is a great plane with a huge potential. With updates and tweaks this has the potential to be an incredible product. I have not tested this airplane in depth and I have never flown a real A350. A see a lot of the same 'issues' as the posters above. Lots of minor things, when adding them all up, makes a difference. Brake temps as an example, Huge differences normally on the A380 on individual wheel brakes. One brake can be 120C while another can be 270c etc. Depending on direction of turn, brake wear etc. Things seem a bit too pre-calculated. This is just a minor thing though. The normal checklists, On the A380 with latest Batch 7 Airbus changed the Checklists (And a bunch of other things). Cockpit Preparation Checklist added and After takeoff Checklist removed etc. Not sure if this was incorporated into the A350 as well?. Keep up the great work. I am excited to see what the Inibuild A350 future brings.

As a A380 pilot, lots of similarities to the A350. Just not as modern, I have to say after testing this airplane. I am honestly disappointed. It feels like the numbers are scripted. Pre-loaded. Not fluid with the conditions. Potential is there, but in this state it's a toy and a game. Nowhere close to the real A350 in terms of accuracy and precision. This aircraft needs a lot of work. Surprised this version passed the so called A350 pilots testing this thing. I would never signed off on this avionics wise in terms of a 'study level' realistic simulation of the A350. Its a decent product, but needs a lot of work to reach the level of accuracy and precision.

Just did a quick flight. Swapped active to SEC 1. Returned to departure airport. BTV setup. Plan, zoom and select. I was able to select the runway, unable to select runway exit after the wet line. Hence BTV not working. Am I missing something? I am a A380 pilot, we always select an intersection (magenta line ) after the wet line. I could not get that to work. Am i missing something? Nav also did not tune to diversion airport. No ils ident.

I get a fair bit of shimmering with this airport. Secondly, you missed the large car park garage on the left side of the Emirates Group Headquarters building. There are two huge car parks on either side of the EGHQ building. You got one.
