This is the most realistic bird out there.

I don't know about that.  What I've been hearing is that the systems are simplified and this version of the A320 was more focused on an amazing model and not fully-modeled systems.

Yeah, I dont know if you could call the Aerosoft the most realistic bird out there. I would wager that any of PMDG's latest offerings are more realistic than that. From what I understood on the Aerosoft plane was that it was more along the lines of a "lite" project.

I bought this product, and let me tell you! I usualy fly hardcore with PMDG products etc, but this is really nice to jsut get away from all the hardcore stuff and jsut enjoy the fantastic modeling and FPS this new bird gives! I can finally enjoy full 100% WOAI, at my Big hub airports such as Zurich. I get around 25fps (plenty for fsx).

I'm just running:
GTX295
Core 2 Duo 8500+
4 Gigs of Ram.

^^ a Mid range machine, and the airbus runs very well!

I'd suggest people to buy this bird even if your the hardcore simmer (like me). I can jsut enjoy the scenery and the environment :)

cheers!

It's a fantastic plane.  Yes, there are some new release quirks, but Aerosoft is working hard to correct them ASAP.

It's very FPS friendly and the one flight I did, it was a joy...It's going to take a minute to get use too all the differences (I'm generally a Boeing guy), but it's a nice and enjoyable change.  ;D
