Brilliant! is this a 2021 product?
Early 2022 I think.

Would you have any idea at this stage as to whether the 330 may have a throttle calibration tool similar to the CRJ, for those who do not have Airbus-style throttle quadrants.
I can’t imagine it would not since they already have something like it.

“Especially if it has floats.” It does there is a page like this one but they post more pictures.

Define "realistic". Do you wan a realistic plane? What does that mean? If the sim CRJ can fly like the real CRJ when inverted does that mean it isn't realistic?
If you want an experience similar to the real thing then the levels of flight model accuracy and many other aspects that most simmers demand are actually irrelevant. It is why many training simulators look so basic compared to what we have. Example: I can do a nav as I'd do in real life in a C182 in the sim just fine even tough I've only flown LSA aircraft. My experience is realistic because I do the things I'd do in a real nav and treat the aircraft as I would a real aircraft in all respects. The only thing that is lacking is some of the decisions we have to make depending on weather like "I can see fog over there but it is currently seems clear at my airfield, will it fog at my field in the time it takes to get there with last light approaching? Then having to decide on a plan *before I need it* as I continue inbound". Does the 182 fly anything like the J160 or SportStar? Heck no. And it matters not one tiny little bit. The *experience* is very realistic.
I expect most of us have pretty different definitions of "realistic" so that by itself really means nothing. What is it, exactly, that you want to experience realistically? For us sim CRJ drivers it is probably as simple as flying a realistic flight profile or pushing similar buttons (a tiny part of a real pilots knowledge). Are these aircraft good for that? I think most are. For the CRJ, I think the snowflake doesn't work quite right and there are other MSFS issues that prevent reliable "realistic" flying some times but those are just bugs.
This is one of the best replies I have ever gotten. In some of my earlier posts I reference the fact I have no clue what they should really feel like. I do exactly what you said, press familiar buttons. I was asking more for curiosities sake in the sense that now they are more of an educated guess than perfect. I am by no means trying to be that guy and I hope it did not come off that way. Anyway thanks again.

Since Airbus are a secure company with trade secrets which could be misused by a 3rd party, they protect their confidential data. I'm pretty sure Boeing and other defense contractors do the same.
You have made me think. I guess I will rephrase my question have they both stopped? If so are the planes we have now are the last truly realistic ones?
-
So just out curiosity, do you know why they stopped sharing them? Does it have something to do with protection of technology? Don’t really expect an answer but if someone has one great.

Am i missing something here? Wasn't the very first post a shot of the A320 model? Not sure what the confusion is as to which model is coming first....
You are right. But we can still have hope

Here are my two cents. I would prefer the A330 first. Firstly there is a lack of a decent long haul aircraft in the sim. We already have the CRJ and the 320neo for short/medium haul. I also think that the A320 is already in good hands. As someone who has never flown the real thing I probably would not truly appreciate the depth that would be available from you guys in the 320. That said I can understand for a business standpoint it is better to roll out the 320 first because more people will buy it. I am preoccupied with the CRJ at the moment and whenever it comes out the twin otter will tide me over until the 330.

I am having problems. I have it calibrated and I stuck the Allen key through so they should be the same but still in manual thrust they are quite different. Another problem I have is the manual thrust. Whenever I make an adjustment it goes all the way to idle then up again which is annoying on final. Any fixes for these?

If I am not mistaken you have a p3d 330 does that mean it will come earlier? Or was this something you guys have used the entire time?
