The new A340 does not appear to respond to turbulence, nor does it seem to generate any internally, likely due to its external flight model implementation. While developers such as A2A (for example, with the Comanche) also use external flight models, their aircraft still properly interpret and react to simulator-driven turbulence.
To verify this, I conducted a controlled test using historical weather with severe turbulence conditions. I compared the A340 against aircraft from iniBuilds, PMDG, and Fenix under identical settings. All of these aircraft exhibited significant movement, as expected in severe turbulence. However, the A340 remained completely unaffected and showed no visible response.
You can test by yourself and its 100 producible since it really does not move at all.
Please consider fixing this as a priority, as it effectively breaks the simulation. Turbulence is a core element of everyday flying, and without it, the experience feels incomplete and unrealistic.
