P3D Airbus380 All Models are Small

How do I change the size of the A380's to actual size in P3D?
Currently all the 380's I have installed are about the size of a CRJ airline.
Need help.
Thanks,
Jazzpilot

The 1st picture is P3D and the 2nd picture is FSX. Both runways are scaled to the 150ft width.

OK

your P3D picture is at Elgin AFB - runway width 300ft. A380 wingspan is 80m = 262ft.

Here is the 380 at London Gatwick P3D

And 747-8F at Eglin P3D ----

Eglin has a very wide runway. The A380 is not scaled down. Please try it in some other locations and you will see. 8-)

Ok, Thanks, will give it a try.
Couldn't be that simple, but there is still a difference in the model size in the display models in FSX!
Thanks for your replies! ;-)
