Die großen A340-Versionen sind nicht wirklich von Systemtiefe gesegnet und auch nicht für anspruchsvolles Fliegen gedacht.
Es ist ideal für Einsteiger,Feierabend-Flieger und Leute, die gerne ein schönes Außenmodell haben.
Die Performance passt besonders im FS9, die "Flexwings" sind super und mit Bemalungen wird auch nicht gegeizt.
Insgesamt ein gutes Produkt und nur so als Tip: Die Flugeigenschaften sind gut,man muss den Vogel nur gescheit austrimmen.
Beim Abheben und im Steigflug wirkt der Airbus recht träge, aber das ist der Realität gut nachempfunden.
Wer seine erste Erfahrung mit Grossraumflugzeugen sammeln will und nicht viel Zeit für Systemtiefe hat, ist mit der A340 gut aufgehoben. Die Flugeigenschaften sind stimmig und die Umsetzung gut. Als Vorstufe für systemtiefe Simulation ist das ein ideales Einstiegsmodell
Full virtual Cockpit nicht vorhanden. Händling der Maschine ist sehr schlecht. Hier wird mehr versprochen als vorhanden. Daher meiner Meinung nach eine reine Mogelpackung.
Spart euch das Geld und kauft euch lieber die Flugzeuge von einem anderen Produkthersteller. Also Finger weg.
Ich werde nie wieder ein Produkt von Just Flight kaufen.
Ein Stern gibt es doch von mir und zwar für die unverschämtheit sowas dem Endverbraucher zuzumuten.
