Will the a330 have the default microsoft flight simulator model like the CRJ or a custom flight model

 

The CRJ has in no way the 'default' Microsoft flight simulator model.  It is fully home-built.  We have never, not in 25 years, used a default flight model.

C'est gentil de votre part de demander. Oui. J'ai eu de nouvelles lentilles implantées et bien que mon médecin oculaire ait menti sur le fait de se sentir à nouveau comme un jeune de 18 ans, il est miraculeux de pouvoir bien voir à nouveau.

 

 

I'm glad to know that your eyes are better 😁

Kind of you to ask. Yes.  Got new lenses implanted and while my eye doc lied about feeling like an 18-year-old youngster again, it is miraculous to be able to see well again.  

why you say miraculous inshallah this will happen one day and alhamdullah you got well.

If the load and weather allows you could make an Istanbul - San Francisco. And even with empty cargo, no passengers or luggage, you could go to Australia from Toulouse 

I don't think that much. This route (Istanbul to San Fransisco) is operated by B77W, needs a bigger aircraft than the a330

I had a question regarding how realistic do you think the landing gear tilt is. For example, on the a339x when you land, the gear is too hard and does not act like a spring ( like on real a330).

No creo que mucho. Esta ruta (Estambul a San Francisco) es operada por B77W, necesita un avión más grande que el a330 

Let's see, normal is that it uses a larger aircraft, in this case B777, despite a real route of iberia A330 Madrid-Tokyo-Madrid. But now with the A350 fleet, I imagine the A350 will use it.

I'm still a beginner in the airline scene.  So I wanted to ask if there are pre sets, such as the direct import of a Simbrief flight plan into the mcdu or pre sets for the condition of the aircraft (cold and dark, ready for take off,...)

I am asking about these lines. And I did. Stefan commented this:

 

Its not a grey line but a weathered region around a main seam. There are two main struts inside the wing and the grey surface meets there with two double rivet lines on each side of the seam. On some planes, the surface is rougher around those rivet lines and what you see is the sunlight reflected in a wider area due to higher roughness. On younger planes, this is not so intensely visible. On top, you see this effect only under a certain light angle. I will tone down the effect a bit, so all are satisfied in the end

 

See, that is why we post these images!

 

About sunlight etc. Will the plane have a dirty and old look? Cockpit-wise and exterior-wise.

For the future, please post in english only and use the search function, as this question has already been answered before.

Aerosoft models the A330-300 which can fly around 11.000 km depending on the load.

if I read it correcly, the total fuel capacity will be 76,5t right? (so 11.000km, as my previous post said, is not reachable...maybe only ferry, but not in normal ops)

 

Most of the preview pictures of the A330 here shows us the Lufthansa A330-343X D-AIKO. All Lufthansa´s D-AIK´s have a max fuel capacity of 78,0t. So will there be any option to add or update the feature of that fuel capacity?

DLH, ACA, SWR, SVA, THY, ETD, VIR, CPA and the most of the current A330-300 operators are flying the A330-343. This is the unofficially called A330-300E or A330-300X.

The A330-343 has an additional center fuel tank installed, giving it a total of 109185 kg of fuel.

 

As far as I know - please correct me, if I'm wrong - Aerosoft creates the "normal" A330-300 without the center fuel tank.

 

By the way - As far as I know (but what do I know?!), Aerosoft uses the RR Trent 772B-60 or Trent 772C-60 for the A330. By the way, these would be the engines for the A330-343 variant.

so if your assumption of A330 variant and engine variant for the Aerosoft A330 Are correct it would be an unrealistic combination?

Yes, this option is available for the A330-300´s.

I know (because I work for the LH´s family) that the A330-343X´s from Lufthansa (and Eurowings Discover (ex. LH´s)) have a max fuel capacity of 78.000kg - that is the variante without the extra fuel tank. Because they mainly have the crew-rest instead of the additional fuel tank installed.

BUT i read, that the aerosoft a330 will only have 76,5? is that right? Or will it be also the 78000kg? The only statement was that it comes "without extra center fuel tank"

So Aerosoft says it’s without the extra tank but even if so the fuel capacity is 1.5 t too low? Did I get that right?

that is how I understand that. I can´t find the post, where it says 76,5t but I can remember it somehow. 

 

So maybe

 could tell us the max fuel capa? The EFB - pictures also not show the capacity.

To clarify some things:

The standard fuel capacity of all A330-300 Weight Variants ( there are over 50 of them!) is 76.561kg/97.530l.

There is an option for 109.185kg/139.090l.

And there is no automatic combination between an engine variant and the fuel capacity. All these numbers are taken from recent Airbus documents.

Aerosoft modellled the standard version with 76.561kg/97.530l.
