Customer Reviews

not to bad
the plane itself is brilliant in the detail of the outside shell, but i wasn't to pleased about the cockpit it doesn't really look like what the real cockpit does. there isn't very many gauges and some have very poor detail like the auto break.
this add on still has some good point about it don't get me wrong.

a good add on if you like a challange and to fly the biggest passenger jet in the sky (well soon it will be)

A good, fun add-on
I and fellow flight simmers have been waiting for an A380 add-on since the day the aircraft was scheduled into service. This software quite faithfully replicates all that is gargantuan about the record-breaking airliner. It is easy to appreciate the power of the four Rolls Royce Trent 900's when taking the A380 down the runway and lifting its magnificent fuselage into the air.

What the product does lack, however, is the A380 cockpit atmosphere; there seems to be nothing exclusive to its real life counterpart other than the blue of the flight deck panels. The autopilot is basic at its best and the sound set is nothing above what you would hear from any default FS aircraft.

Criticisms aside, you get your money's worth since it is A LOT of fun to fly! I particularly enjoyed the eye candy such as exit stairs and baggage loaders. The selection of liveries is also good. Moreover there is no detremental impact on frame rates either.

Overall a great fun add-on which sufficiently replicates the A380 in all its glory. Thoroughly recommended!

FSX-A380 ADD ON
very good detail. good scenery and aircraft viewing positions. for me, its almost as good as my day job, of flying one of those for real.
