    Fenix Simulations - A320

    Fenix Simulations release announcement about their payware A320.
    Worth reading about the high fidelity detail and systems modeling.

    I was really hoping for a Boeing. (Or in my dreams, a Douglas, Convair, or L1011, but I know the modern stuff appeals more to the kids raised on glass cockpits.)

    Not negating their efforts. The preview looks exciting, and their modeling the systems externally to allow MSFS to use its resources purely for performance is great. (Though it worries me we might see the plane break temporarily with sim updates.) And it literally will make the rivet counters happy.

    I just wish they'd chosen a subject that wasn't already represented by a pretty nice solution in the sim. But if this is as amazing as it sounds, I'll probably add it to the hangar.

    Well, we all know study-level Boeings are definitely coming to MSFS via PMDG anyways. So there's no real disappointment in that new plane NOT being a Boeing.

    However, until this news article, there were no guaranties to get anything like that for Airbus.
    As far as I know, FSL has not really announced anything regarding their A320 coming to MSFS, have they ?
    Now at least we know a study-level Airbus is coming. The question is: is it really going to be study-level or is it going to be yet another scam payware ?
    The first feedbacks from actual Airbus pilots seem to be extremely positive, so maybe we can be a little bit optimistic, for once...

    I have been following this very closely on Discord. I love oil on my jeans, but also love a high quality simulation. I look forward to all this being actuality (with crossed fingers). If so, the goal posts will have moved.

    Fenix based on ProSim-AR...?

    Pointed out from a reader on a different forum.
    See opening article:
    https://soarbywire.com/2021/08/07/fenix-a320-a-prosim-copycat-or-coincidence/


    Comment by Fenix developer:
    I will caveat that I've not mentioned anything about where or what the architecture comes from..
    Looking like Fenix brought aircraft model and VC to work with ProSim in MSFS.

    Fenix confirms

    Confirmation that Fenix is using ProSim-AR A320 systems.

    Aamir — Today at 10:01 AM

    Hey @everyone. We've seen the article posted here and elsewhere, whilst a lot of the assumptions made have started to tail into baseless speculation, we do indeed have a license with ProSim to utilise and modify elements of their simulation software, and are building upon that to bring something much more desktop-oriented and more in line with what PC simmers are used to.

    Development Update - 8 Oct.

    Mostly EFB development.

    EFB is now in the airplane and beginning to take shape nicely. We’re still heavily in the midst of development (read: It’s WIP) for this, and as such, the look and feel of the UI may change between now and launch

    Yes, watching this very closely... the proof is in the pudding, and it's going to be served soon... hoping it's TASTY!

    You might get more interest over on Avsim, but they're probably dissecting it to death before it's even out.

    NDA lifted.

    The NDA has been lifted so expect a flood of videos and pics from the testers.
