A little hard to fly although I am not the best pilot. I am giving 3 stars because of its lack of doors. I am looking for a plane to work with my GSX addon and with its lack of doors, I cannot complete this.

The flight sim community is begging for a good Airbus a330 family of aircraft's, and frankly this is not it.It is very similar to freeware aircraft and is Virtual cockpit is almost identical to that you would see in default aircraft, the only positive of this is that the exterior quality is of a okay standard. Overall I do not recommend this product.

Oh geez where to begin... This seems to just be another POSKY aircraft except a payware version. The flaps when they're extended just lag after lag after lag. To fix this i had to readjust the flaps extending time in the cgf. file to make the flaps extend out smoother. The landing gears are the same way. The just plain silly part is that CLS tries to add realism by including the jet engine heat blast effect. They simply added in a transparent revolving film around the back of the engines to look like heat mirages but in all honest it looks like a barber shop sign they way it just turns round' like a coil. The VC cocpit isnt any better than the default FSX A321 and its quite blurry even with maxed out settings. THe major plus however are the high quality textured liveries. CLS had a LONG way to go to match up to other designers though. A bit too pricey.

Not the best plane. Hard to control and stalls frequently. I would not recommend this. CLS has made way better products than this.

After reviewing the screenshots here on SimMarket again (because something wasn't jiving with what I'm seeing on my system) I realized that those shots must have been from the first build of this add-on. The VC in this release (which is what you get now) has been very much updated since those screenshots were taken. The flight deck looks much more realistic in it's present incarnation... CLS needs to update their marketing shots.

I first thought this was a rehash of Overland's Airbus series which can be bought right here at Simmarket. What I found is totally different. This package is nothing short of outstanding. The VC seems to have been seriously enhanced putting this add-on right up there with the best VC around. You have cockpit glass simulated, everything is retextured from the seats to the walls, and the overhead panel among other things is fully clickable. Performance is outstanding in FS9 (I can't speak for FSX). The autopilot is correctly simulated to Airbus specifications so there's no rehash of the default operation here. You will have to add the Airbus callouts which is available for free on Flightsim.com. The Overland package is more of a 'lite' offering which is what I thought this was yet this model is very much in between hardcore and moderate. The FDE is much improved and has the correct feel for a heavy aircraft of this type. The sounds are nothing short of the best around. A good example is you can hear the differences in the engine types in the cockpit. The sounds put you in the cockpit instead of in the passenger seat. The 4 engine A340's cockpit sits farther forward from the engines than the A330 and you can tell the difference from the sound set. Night lighting is great although I wish CLS would start modeling dome lighting. All in all a very outstanding product (trust me the screenshots don't do this product justice).
