Well the next project will be the A330neo; we got some pretty good information we can finally use. After that, we'll go for the smaller fish!

I know my opinion might aswell be irrelevant, but I would much rather have seen the A330Ceo fleet be fully expanded with a -200 and more engine variants instead of jumping to the neo.

I’ll welcome the NEO.  But as for the “smaller fish”, I’d much rather take some more bigger fish, such as the A340, or even the other variants of the A330CEO.  There are so many A320 family aircraft either available, or being developed by other developers, it’s just lost any and all appeal to me.  There’s just no excitement for yet another A320 family aircraft announcement.  Fenix, FBW, Default Sim A320, LatinVFR, FSL, and eventually Aerosoft.

A340 would be good, I bet there's as much information available for the A340 as there is for the A330.

I am sorry for asking you this, but I just have to know if you would at all consider doing the A330-200 as well. I feel like completing the CEO lineup would be something good to do, please at least consider it. Thank you

[German Norwegian 56]

We already have someone else doing the A330NEO, I think resources would be better spent developing out the A330CEO family fully

[Kevin Jreisat 43]

Headwind Simulations is already developing the A330neo 800 and 900 variants. I was hoping for the A340-300. 
 

anyways, thanks Mathijs for all your efforts!

Instead of complaining be happy with it.

They will now also do all the CEOs so your argument doesn't make any sense anymore.

Where did they say this?

I think it’s because of the Xbox world.  Us PC folks have a wealth of A320 but I realized the good ones, like Fenix and FBW, you can’t get those on the Xbox.  So still a huge market for them that has not been tapped.

I'm sorry, but I don't want to see another A330NEO. Guys, why don't you make all the A330CEO variants first? We're disappointed in you.

What? This is copy pasted from the FAQ: 

 

Q. Which variant is being produced?

The A330-343 with Trent 772B-60 engines. Our model does not contain center tanks. You can find more information here.

 

Q. Are any other variants planned?

We have not yet announced any other variants.

 

There is nothing to hint at any other variants, let alone a promise or verbal commitment.

I imagine that is what they are thinking.  But, they are already beaten to the XBox World by LatinVFR for the A318/19/20/21.  They’re not bad at all, considering they are already on the XBox.  Overall, the announcement just doesn’t formulate any excitement, sadly.

The one big thing which bothers me by the Headwind A330 as well as the Flybywirs A32NX and prevents me from flying them is that they still use the default Asobo cockpit model. Its geometry is in many aspects wrong especially around the glareshield which is just in the middle of the viewpoint. After years in P3D with Fslabs and Aerosoft Airbusses I simply cannot get used to this, it just feels toyish and wrong. I know there are plans from Flybywire to do a complete new model of the VC and I'm really looking forward to this, but I assume it will come after their A380 project. I don't know if headwind considers doing a complete VC by there own anyway.

 

So any Airbus from Aerosoft (expect A320ceo which is perfectly covered by Fenix, I know it's a different story for xbox users) is highly appreciated since their VC previews here look very accurate and beautiful. I hope to see some newer preview shots soon to see also their displays, which will hopefully be as accurate as by Flybywire, in this point they are really really good I think.

I talked about Headwind, not Aerosoft. Because this guy complained that Headwind is already doing the NEO. But today on Discord they announced also to do the CEO, that was my point. Not Aerosoft related.

Ohh my bad, I misunderstood. Apologies. 

[German Norwegian 56]

I don't want to come across as unthankful, I appreciate Aerosoft for what they are doing. I just wish they would consider completing the A330CEO family before moving on.

[CaptainLHKLM 39]

Mathijs, are you planning on doing the A330neo after the A330-343 release? Or is there a possibility we will see more engine variants before the A330neo?

[chinjh 73]

No plans for the A330-200?

[Plebyxail 100]

Headwind and Project Mega Pack teaming up to launch an A330Ceo, Aerosoft working towards an A330Neo. The ole switcheroo

That's a great announcement Mathijs I'm looking forward to it. 

[Zocopeta 12]

This new announcement is great but in MSFS there isn't any a350 or a340, i know a350 is being developed but is minimum 2years until release and aerosoft could have gained a great territory with the a340 or a350. Thanks for your products

[Svend Loggerhead 136]

I want the other engine variant of the A330-300, because the two airlines that I really care about flying (Delta, KLM) use the other engine variant. As for all the other things, I don’t really care all that much about the -200, but if Aerosoft made it then I would buy it, and Headwind is already making a Neo version. I know I’m talking to a wall, but I’m a bit disappointed Aerosoft is jumping straight to the Neo.
