The Airbus A380 was designed as the largest passenger aircraft. With a two story passenger compartment, it can be outfitted to carry 550 passengers up to 8000 miles.

The A380 recently made its first appearance to the public in January and is scheduled to make its first test flight in Spring 2005.

We comissioned Tolga Piskin to create the upcoming Airbus A380 to fly using FS2004 and FS2002. Graphic artist Ed Knapp has carefully reproduced the colors for three versions: Airbus house colors, Lufthansa Airlines and launch customer Singapore Airlines.

Nobody knows how the real panel is and they possibly had no technical information to build the model

I doubt you own it.

It looks decent for 10 dollars.

[dolbinau]

Oh; its only $10.

I still think it would beat the PF one.

If you have this A380, won't your wings start hitting everything   due to the large wingspan and if you have crash on, you might not get off the ground.

soooooo...........

If for security reason, Airbus does not release their actual panel layout(s) and flight model(s) to the general public, we in the sim community should do without?  

I think for 10 bucks, I'll have some fun with it.    I think you should too.....

Sounds like a support issue, the model has a virtual cockpit.

It's a lot more realistic.

If your head moved at the pace of the virtual cockpit view you would have some serious motor neuron problems.

It's a matter of miliseconds to move up your head to see an overhead, and when you're in a 2d panel, it only takes a few miliseconds to look at an overhead panel.
