Hello everyone, and we have some very exciting news for you today! 🥳

As announced back in November 2022 in our roadmap post, and teased last week on social media, we are ecstatic to showcase some of our work on the iniBuilds A300-600 Airliner for Microsoft Flight Simulator! 

Those at FSExpo Houston 2023, will be experiencing this product first-hand in the 'iniBuilds Experience Planetarium' (follow our socials here to see this live!). However, we thought for those of you not attending, we would do our first official blog post on this fantastic product, providing you information on the work completed thus far, and some of the features you can expect.

The past few months has been spent on completely re-creating the exterior model of our flagship aircraft; taking the visual experience you can expect to the next level. The aircraft uses a combination of 8K and 4K PBR textures, providing a spectacular experience akin to the real life counterpart; realistic decals, wear & tear and dirt carefully placed across the aircraft. From accurate liveries to precise textures, you can expect an aircraft model that truly captures the essence of the iconic A300.

Here are some images focused on some of the key areas.

This superb attention to detail transcends into the interior of the aircraft with a fully modelled cockpit & cargo interior that you can see below.

With our extensive range of cargo loads, you can embark on exhilarating journeys to various destinations, each offering unique opportunities. Picture yourself transporting an F1 car to a thrilling race in Bahrain or taking precious cargo for an important client. The iniBuilds A300-600 Airliner provides you with an ultimate airliner experience embarking on extraordinary adventures, where the sky is no longer the limit.

But that's not all! We're also building something truly remarkable in the iniManager, taking your cargo hauling adventures to the next level. Our innovative tool will enhance your experience and become your trusted companion. But that deserves its own post, and once we have completed this element of the product, we will showcase this! 

This leads in nicely to talk about the next steps for the iniBuilds A300-600 & what features are going to be included!

This is a true-to-life complex airliner, with hundreds of features but we outline some of the key features below:

  • Comprehensive systems simulation alongside an authentic flight-model in line with all iniBuilds airliner products. The A300 for Microsoft Flight Simulator will feature an incredibly realistic flight model, meticulously designed to replicate the handling, performance, and behavior of the real-life aircraft. Get ready to experience the thrill of flying the A300 as if you were in the captain's seat! 
  • Full ACARS/CPDLC simulation (including SimBrief) with the option for classic and modern pedestal options (like the X-Plane version)
  • Navigraph charts compatibility in a feature-rich EFB including comprehensive cargo operation simulation. 
  • Numerous realistic and fictional liveries for free via iniManager
  • Custom WWise sound set including authentic sound recordings from the real aircraft, dynamically balanced within a 3D environment. 
  • A fully modelled Freighter (release version) & passenger version (post-release) of the A300-600 airliner. The passenger version will include a fully modelled cabin. 

I leave you with a final piece of content on the iniBuilds A300-600 airliner which is a teaser of the aircraft, that we showcased in the 'iniBuilds Experience' at FSExpo Houston 2023! 🙂

We're thrilled about the progress we've made so far, and we can't wait to share the A300 with the Microsoft Flight Simulator community. Rest assured, our team is dedicated to delivering a high-quality aircraft that meets and exceeds your expectations.

I am also pleased to announce that we will be developing the 'Epic' modification, for those seeking a retro-modern combi experience! How this will be structured alongside the modern product is currently unclear and as always, we appreciate your support and patience throughout this development journey. We'll continue to provide updates as we make further strides towards completion. 

For those seeking an even more modern experience; do join our Discord and follow us on social media as work progresses on the 'iniBuilds secret project' will surely provide you with a modern long-haul airliner experience. 😉 We hope to make an official unveiling to the end of 2023! 

Many thanks for reading & have a lovely rest of your weekend! To those of you attending FSExpo, please do drop by to the iniBuilds stand and say Hello! 👋
