Hi all,

As we embark on A350 v2 Update, we'd love to hear from you the key things you would like to see addressed regarding sounds on the A350 for MSFS 2024.

Note:
- No need to tag me or any member of team individually
- We will review all feedback below and action as appropriate.
- The aim is refinements, we are not guaranteeing a complete overhaul from the ground up.
- v2 will be a free update.

Please include in your reports
- Variants
- References from the sim of how it sounds/behaves currently
- References either video or otherwise of how you expect it to sound.

Thanks!

Latest Airliner Development Update

The speed brake deploys but the lever doesn’t move when landing it stays in the armed position (xbox) I can send a video if required . Not sound related but would be great if you could fix it ..

It'd be great if speed brake rattling that is extremely audible (this is in the a340 as well) is removed. I find it extremely annoying and no other aircraft has it, nor do I think it is realistic.

The sound of each detent on the A350 throttle valve sounds a bit dull. I don't know if it's the same in reality, but the sound of the detent on the A340 sounds really great. Can you modify the sound effects for the A350?

Also what would be great is to hear the runway call out as we approach the runway to line up for takeoff . Approaching runway 27 right .. that would be amazing

Can you add the taxi cam anfld A35F if possible , thanks

Another thing as I have mentioned many times (check my post history) is if the RA callouts/GPWS can be made more accurate
Currently it seems to be "insert aircraft name here gpws callouts" off of Youtube in terms of the RA callouts, which those videos are mostly inaccurate
Yes, the a350's ra callouts do come through the pilot's headset, however the tonality is different in cockpit videos when hooked up to the Audio panel, you can hear that in videos shared by Qatar Airways as they do that all the time.
If it was possible, when using headphone simulation it should come through the headphones and when that is off it should use the loudspeakers, I doubt it's possible but if the tonality could be sorted that would be nice.

I'm afraid you got that wrong. That lever is never moved by itself and is supposed to stay in the armed position during landing.

That’s interesting so how do I retract the speed brakes then when they are in the armed position ?? Currently I’m moving the lever all the way down then back up again so they go back into position on both wings .. In all the other airbuses the levers move down .

You retract the speedbrakes by disarming (push down) the speedbrake lever and that is it. No moving it all the way back and up. In all other airbuses this behaviour is the same, excluding the A300 and the a310 probs, by move down not sure if you mean like boeing but you got that wrong.

No you are absolutely correct . I’ve just landed and moved it from armed position and they retracted on the wings . I’m used to flying LVFR airbuses and the lever does move all the way down and have to move it all the way back up . Just goes to show the quality In inibuilds… it’s time to say goodbye to LVFR planes .
