We're excited to be bringing you the latest iterations of the A300-600R for MSFS, we're going to be releasing these in a slightly different way, so let's dive into how we're doing it below.

As communicated earlier this year, we will be providing an update of the MSFS2020 version of the A300-600R to MSFS2024.

This version will be completely FREE for current A300-600R Airliner owners, allowing you to use your product in both sims for no charge at all. 

Those wishing to use the product in MSFS2020 can download the latest version via the iniManager. The MSFS2024 compatible version, 1.1.3, is being initially released in a Beta state.  While the product is functional we've identified a few areas that require further refinement before we identify it as fully compatible.

Some known issues that are still under investigation:

  • Terrain Display
  • Loss of overhead Korry switch and ambient packs/bleed sounds when switching views
  • Random TCAS RA errors from own plane
  • Networking issue highlighted in greater detail below

We appreciate your understanding and ask that if you do experience any issues/find any solutions, please do let us know on the iniBuilds Forum here, so that we may resolve these issues ASAP.

Watch the Trailer!

We're really enjoying MSFS2024 for developing and introducing our aircraft into, so we hope you see some great performance boosts in the Premium edition of this aircraft, thanks to the latest MSFS2024 tech!

PLEASE NOTE - We have discovered a current core sim issue relating to networking that prevents users  from fully closing the simulator after completion of a flight. 
While this does not affect anything related to loading or using the aircraft either offline or with Multiplayer/Online networks, you will not be able to return to the menu UI without closing the simulator process via the task manager.
Rest assured that we are investigating the issue and communicating with Asobo regularly to identify and implement a fix which will be pushed in a follow on update as soon as feasible.

Liveries: Previous MSFS2020 liveries are not compatible with the 2024 version due to the new file structure. We have made an initial selection of compatible liveries available in the iniManager under the 'Liveries' tab section for use with this aircraft.

Happy flying! ✈️
