Thanks for letting me know...

If there weren't those FS-implemented modelled navigation and and strobe lights, i would believe this is a photo! Stunning!

I don't have the PA paintkit, but in most official paint kits there are several layers included.
There's one layer for the repaint work and layers where details like lines, windows, shading, etc are included.

Which program are you using for repainting?

Your rapaints are good for starters... but you should try some "lighting" effects. The belly of the aircraft is darker and the top lighter.
Or add some dirt effects etc.

Not using these makes the whole repaint look too "sterile" if you know what I mean.

PAIRBUSBEST, it is written in C#, a derivate of C. To be honest, I have no clue about how to make gauges :D Is it similar? Then I could try :D EDIT: Automatic payload reading is now possible! :-) HAHA, obviously, it is not.... LOL There's still an error with an array ;-) To the PA team or anyone who...

Thanks

After two test flights, here is what I can say: Without reserves etc. the fuel amount given by the fuel manager is about 5-10% too high.
The PA A319 seems to be "greener" than I thought...

Hey, I have written a small tool for the A319. It allows you to plan the amount of fuel you need on a trip. Please read the README + EULA before using the tool! Current Version: 0.1.2.1 / June 14th, 2010 -------------------------------- CHANGELOG: 0.1.2.1: Tried to fix an error with payload reading....

As long as the oil is still flowing, there's enough money to buy 30 additional A380s...

Ah, I see you were also there

Woher kommst Du denn?

Very nice photos! Esp. the 4th one is nice. You should clean your sensor or lenses though. In the 4th photo you can see a black spot at a 2 o' clock position from the nose. If you look closely, you'll find it on the other photos, too ;-) I had one of those, too. It took quite a time to find where th...

Rapax, what's your camera equipment? Those are nice photos!

On the first visit of the A380 in DUS (some years ago), the crew didn't even use reverse power.
Seems like they only use it when necessary.

The A380 has effective flaps and is very stable flying at low speeds.
A Lufthansa pilot said: "It's similar to flying an A320."
The ailerons and rudders are so big that they produce enough force to make this giant plane a nice to fly aircraft.

Hey, just a small vid I made the other day when the LH A380 came for a visit to Düsseldorf... I'm sorry for the shaky camera, I didn't have the time to set up a tripod and when it came nearer I needed to rotate my feet so I could film it the whole way to the runway ;-) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...

As for the introductory text on the homepage, I tried my best: It was a real shock for a lot of people when the freeware producers of Project Airbus announced to cancel their projects. Fear and anger spreaded throughout the Flightsim-community and many e-mails begging for a re-launch were sent to PA...
