Please note that if you have Aerosoft's Airbus X Extended add-on installed, you will need to uninstall it BEFORE installing this new A320/A321 package.
When it was launched, the Airbus 320 was a sensation. Based on a completely new concept in automation and integratio,n and partly made from composite materials, it seemed like a futuristic prototype. But airlines quickly picked up on the advantages and cost savings and the pilots started to get used to fly-by-wire and the fact the aircraft only needed 21 (!) manual actions for a standard flight.
All the systems that are used in day-to-day flights are simulated in the Aerosoft A320/A321with great attention to detail and include a Weather Radar that is a unique Aerosoft development and is fully functional without the need for a specific weather add-on!
The Aerosoft Airbus A320/A321 includes many modules that are normally costly add-ons - a 100% working copy of FS2Crew RAAS for the aircraft, a highly advanced semi-automated audio checklist, a copilot to assist you and a very complex audio environment. The flight model has been overhauled to function better with the new Autopilot systems and it is a pleasure to fly the aircraft manually. Of course all the standard protections (in pitch, bank and speed) are included.

-
Fully functional Weather Radar with Manual and Multiscan. Works with ANY weather add-on (and even without a weather add-on) and reads the actual weather that is inserted in FSX. This is a unique development!
-
Full custom fuel flow, avoiding standard FSX limitations.
-
Full custom auto brakes with constant deceleration instead of constant brake pressure.
Additional features
-
Tiller can be operated by additional FSX Axis
