Project Airbus – Talk

sknepper

If I may say something Andrew, the only little bit of criticism I have is that the alphas maybe have to be pushed up a bit on the fuselage, engines and winglets for a bit more shine. Otherwise I can't fault the rest.

sknepper

I have a feeling that Microsoft is just feeling if there is interest out there for a new flightsim as I heard they were not happy with the amount of sales of FSX, and the expectations were never met. Maybe a hype for a new version will help the sales of a new edition ?

sknepper

Maybe an A345 / A346 model

sknepper

Thanks for the "twist" on the EK liveries Demetris.

sknepper

Love the face-lift. Coming on to be a good-looking B737

sknepper

Can't wait to see some more progress. You need some photos then I will do my best.

Thanks for that. That explains the many hours of trial and lots of error.

I will stop any further works in that direction. :mrgreen:

sknepper

Thanks for the updates goldfazer. Are they for download anywhere? :!:

sknepper

Welcome nicsilo. Are you running the A380 with fuel-tanks over 60% full? Reducing the F.O.B. (fuel on board) to between 30%-40% will help this bird get up to its M0.85 cruise speed and the AOA (angle of attack) should reduce to around 5 degrees. Also the aft of the aircraft should not have too many ...

sknepper

Thanks allot for the quick repaint.

sknepper

Thanks for that document Timo, it is always good reading finding out all the technical figures of the Airbus family for me.

sknepper

Just to let you all know, I have managed to help Dion to find his footing with the configurations in the queens Dutch. Also want to say that the models are great and offer many dimensions. I do have a question though. I remember someone mentioned a freeware item from Flight1 for wondering through th...

sknepper

Nice for a first video.

sknepper

Here's a very good start;

If you can do the tutorial, then the sky's the limit

sknepper

Even though it is not painted with thw window borders I can really see that it's a Cessna twin, so thanks for sharing this with us.

sknepper

Hé gozert, een PM is altijd welkom. Praat een beetje haags dan kan ik je helpen? I am half Irish (on my left) and half Dutch (on the right) so if you need help in any language including French or Spanish. I'm your man ;) Greek is a passion I want to learn too :). The VC is sometimes confused with th...

sknepper

Thanks for sharing it with us Alexis. This is certainly a "New Generation" in VC design. Great work on those gauges.
B.T.W. How did the exams go?

If I was the examinator I would give you 110%

sknepper

We certainly need a good CASA 295 for flightsim. Exciting.

Keep on with the good work.

sknepper

And the nose, amongst other things, looking really good like the real one

.

sknepper

Every time I check out the progress I am really surprised. Nice work Alexis. And the many animations inside the cabin are fantastic.

sknepper

Lovely repaints guys. I like them allot

.

sknepper

Welcome Callum!
Nice one and thanks for sharing it with us. Personally, I like the cleaner look. But hey, that's only my opinion.

sknepper

hey guys, i've got the A380 of Farnborough.. and House livery and Lufthansa but there are no wing-views?? and were can in download the vc cockipit with cabin? i dont now how i can let the vc works as i download him Regards, Dion My English can be bad i'am of the Netherlands Hoi Dion, geen probleem ...

sknepper

Maybe an idea to move the blue stripe higher to just under the windows? Looking good anyway and it's nice to have Olympic in my hangar

.

sknepper

Wow. Looking very good. Thanks for the fantastic effort.

sknepper

I like it allot already. Nice work.

sknepper

Those many hours have paid off. Well done on aligning the tail.

sknepper

Love the colours of the KLM A380. Maybe the logos on the engines could be a smidgen smaller? Otherwise looking very nice

. What about a name like "Amsterdamned" or "Rotterdamned"?

sknepper

Judging by the clouds it's FSX?

sknepper

Reflecting runways? And donn't forget to switch off the windscreen wipers.

Nice screnshot with the reflections

.

sknepper

Nice landing. You're a good pilot dotsalgon. You can fly my Piaggio Avanti anytime mate.

sknepper

I don't see anything. Where is the "LH.png" being hosted?

sknepper

Nice one. Lovely to see a sunset shot instead of all the daylight ones.

sknepper

I agree that the Thai colours really go well on the A380. Maybe only the text on the belly? Anyway, it is a fictional so I'll leave it to you Stian to decide.

sknepper

Great pics, thanks! Thanks Derek. It is very difficult to find an angle where the A380 doesn't look great. And flies well agreed. I like all the pictures. and the A380 is to visit AMS on the 15th iirc. It was awesome to see this wonderful bird take flight at the real AMS last Thursday. :D :D See th...

sknepper

This is the A380 flying over Holland with the photo-realistic scenery from NL2000 for FSX. Thanks PA for this beautiful freeware aircraft and the NL2000 team for the great version 4 freeware scenery for FSX. :D http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm26/skneppers/Project%20Airbus%20A380/a380-1.jpg http...

sknepper

What springs to mind is maybe a hanging throttle on the joystick

Lambchop95, did you try doing "F1" on the keyboard?

sknepper

Good luck doing the white "pixels" on the tail. Can't see the grey shading under the ribbon in the front, but maybe my eyes are getting old (like me)

. Love the EasyJet and SAA repaints. Good luck with the BA, I don't envy you doing it though

.

sknepper

Very nice rendition of the Korean A380 ther Mike. Well done.

sknepper

Nice work Goldfazer. The red outlines around the windows must have taken allot of time?

sknepper

Just to add a bit of a new dimension to the already great FDE, I enabled the fly-by-wire function in FSX to the PA A380. My first opinions were that the controls reacted a bit sluggishly, but after doing a few touch and go's, found that the stability did get a new dimension. It seemed to trim the el...

sknepper

Nice that they took you on, Gary. You deserve to be a member of the PA team with all your good ideas and good spirit.

And don't forget, PAirbus is the best

sknepper

No, it was not black screen. I mentioned electronic went off on the panel cockpit. There is no APU switch available in overhead panel. Stuart So Stuart, which panel are you using? Is it with FSX or FS2004? I guess FS2004 as the default B747 panel does not have an overhead with APU start and APU on....

Nice to the the Korean Air colours on this beutiful bird. Nice work there, kingle.

sknepper

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... :D I am very interested in this, Dave. Keep us updated. Well everything is getting greener...

sknepper

Maybe a hint to now build a real sim

They do look nice though, thanks for that mate.

sknepper

Thanks Steve.

sknepper

Lovely shots.
I don't think that's default scenery

sknepper

Well, I'll be flying this route again soon, thanks to Air France UK who've given me 2 free return tickets (see here . Not sure which dates I'll be flying yet but I'll hopefully have them sorted next week. Whoá a lucky boy :D . Nice one there Tom. Will we get a few more photos again? ;) Enjoy it and...

sknepper

My first flight was from WIII to YMML.. has anyone use simulation rate during long flight? In FS2004 I could get nicely upto 16x. In FSX it starts a violent oscillation above 4x. Did all the major routes already like Heathrow to Dubai with EK, Singapore to Heathrow with SQ, Melbourne to Kuala-Lumpu...
