Simviation Forums

So many pics of the kiddies toys in this bit of the forum just lately (  :P ) thought I'd redress the balance a bit with a few pics of what I think is still the best Airbus around, Project Airbus's A320

This is BA's A320-211 G-BUSG









It looks good, flies great still in FS9, has got all the bits on that you could want and is still FR friendly.

Well done PA!

Lovely stuff Roger

Yeah great shots.

VC? Panel?

VC? Panel?

Whaaaaaat?

PA were the first to create the Super VC and theirs is still one of the very, very best



The gauges are black  *****EDIT***** NOT NOW .....SEE POST BELOW because I don't use their panel that comes with the plane - it's a mod'd 737 panel which just doesn't do it for me.

I use what I think is still the best A320 panel bar none - Roy Chaffins 2002 version that I've mod'd and updated to suit what I want and to work in FS9.



I just tried Hector Molina's but it hung and crashed my sim (errr never a good feature for any download) and personally I can't stand panels which have drop-downs that obscure your view and have 'pretend' switch sequences. Sorry life's too short to read 'manuals' and play pretend pilots! Done that.

what a great bird!

Where did you get that BA paint? I love the PA A320, but have been looking for a BA paint for ever!
Great shots!

Any panel out there that makes the VC work properly?

Nice

very nice indeed the vc looks real good

Thanks all

It's my own repaint - don't do any aircraft now though. When I did it just after PA started there was a 'no repaints' rule and I didn't get permission to upload. The model is so good I made sure that it's one of the most accurate I've done.

But I see now they are allowing repaints of liveries they haven't done themselves, so if I can get round to it I'll see about uploading it.

BTW I did the same paint job using the same basic textures on Mike Stone's A300 Airbus so there is a version out there.

YESSSSIRRREEEEE!!

Just take a look now. Because I didn't use the PA panel I hadn't copied over the VC gauges. They give detailed instructions on how to make the VC work with any panel - so there you go.

This is a great plane that I hadn't flown for some time and I'm really glad I went back to it

Okay,thanks,Roger.
My heart is beating faster and I'll pop over to the PA page any second....

True beat!

v. nice shoots
