hi does anyone know a good airbus i can download for free with a good Virtual Cotpit it must have a VC. thanks

That depends on the type of Airbus that you want.  Project Opensky (http://www.projectopensky.com) has a very good A330 with a VC.  If you are looking for an A320 checkout Project Airbus (http://www.avsim.com/projectairbus/).  The plane does have a VC except only the autopilot is clickable.  What inpaticular are you looking for?

does anyone else have anymore that r just for FS9

Sorry about the A320.  I forgot that it was designed for FS2002.  At http://www.flightsim.com there is a360ali.zip which is designed for FS2002, but I use it in FS9 with a virtual cabin and VC.  An A340, ad343bas.zip, has an OK virtual cockpit.  Finally, a320c.zip is an updated Project Airbus craft.  I hope these help.

I've got an A300-600R from Project Airbus (www.avsim.com/projectairbus) which not only has a VC but a full length virtual cabin also! So if you have Active Camera, you can go and sit at the back of the plane if you want!

It's for FS2002 (actually I think it was designed for FS2000!) but I don't know if it will work in FS2004 - should do. Worth a try for the fun factor - I got it by doing a search on Avsim.

Speaking of Airbus, what is the best Airbus 380 out there?

[microlight]

Camil Valiquette did a FS2000 version which also works well in FS2002 - I have it in Virgin and Air France liveries.  (You can get it here at SimV). Various bits of the animation don't work in FS2004, though.

If you want FS2004, then Mike Stone's is good also - and it also works in FS2002. This model is slightly reshaped to reflect the current design - it's available at Mike's homepage or at Avsim. (Sorry - not at my own PC so can't include the link, but you can do a  google and find it easily.)

Mike Stone's webite is http://www.pmstone.com/aircraftidx.html.  I have his A380 and it is a very good model.
