woah, amazing pictures. I love the 3rd one from inside the cockpit, the lighting in general is incredible though! Do you think that the airbusX is worth buying?

Yes I think so!

First, I was a little disappointed in regards to the missing 2D panels - but after closely reading the manuals etc, I found out, there's several shortcuts for different 'fixed viewpoints' inside the VC, which really helps...
Just takes a little getting used to...

The exterior model is just spectacular! And the night-lightning and quality of the VC is really amazing...
If I had to point out one thing, which kinda annoys me, it would be the lack of SID/STAR integration... although it's perfectly flyable without...

Still miss that... ;)

Ah ok that helps a lot thank you. I assume it runs well on your system? (you have an awesome system it looks like from your signature  :)) Because I have heard mixed reviews about its performance.

Yes - it runs very well!

One of the reasons I finally transfered to FSX, was because I didn't want to play it, without being able to play it, "as it was meant to"... know it sounds weird... :)

Anyway - during landing here in the pics, I got around 40-50 FPS steady... So very nice!

The settings are ALL MAXED OUT! AA 8x and AF 16Q - with all sliders to the right... I must say! It really looks awsome! :)
Personally, I don't think, that the Airbus X is more hard on framerates, than other payware aircrafts... The "worst" FPS killer I've flown so far, is probably PMDG's 747... But in general it's not bad... ;)

Thanks for the kind words, regarding pics!
