/images/notams/notams19/wide0331/wide0331.jpgWe are delighted to announce the development of our Airbus A350 forPrepar3D v4.4+. The A350 XWB is one of the most advanced long-rangeairliners in the world, yet an appropriate replica of this model forflight simulator is still missing. For the past ten years, we have worked for a professional companyin France which programs system trainers for airlines worldwide. Sincemy colleagues and I are flight simulator enthusiasts for quite a longtime, we always had the dream of bringing the professional products wehave developed to the flight simulation community. For the A350, thisdream will become true. After tough negotiations with our employer, we were able to draftan agreement which allows us bringing the system trainer's code toflight simulator. Because of licensing issues, this is only possiblefor the professional market. Hence, we will develop our A350 XWBAdvanced product series for Prepar3D v4.4+ only. While it is still too early for a complete feature overview, we canassure that our A350 XWB will feature study-level systems close to thereal-world counterpart. Essentially, the systems are being ported overfrom the professional platform to Prepar3D. Working together withAirbus for many years, we are also in the process of obtaining anofficial license for our product. While porting over the systems sounds quite easy, it is not. Ourcurrent timeframe aims for a release in early to mid-2020. If thesuccessor of Prepar3D v4 will be release at this time, we will mostlikely adopt to the new platform by providing free upgrades to ourcustomers. At this time, we work hard porting over the systems and arejoined by a very talented 3D-artist who is developing the model. Here are a few renders of the virtual cockpit. Please note thecockpit will developed first, followed by the exterior model. Thisparticular workflow allows for integrating and testing the systemsfaster then starting with the external model. /images/notams/notams19/wide0331/wbsd-1.jpg /images/notams/notams19/wide0331/wbsd-2.jpg /images/notams/notams19/wide0331/wbsd-3.jpgwidebodysim.com
