The Microsoft Flight Simulator aircraft catalog has been supplemented with a new model – Airbus A380, developed by iniBuilds studio. The airliner becomes part of the Marketplace Exclusive series and will only be available for purchase through the in-game Microsoft Flight Simulator Marketplace for the first 3 months after release.
The Airbus A380 is the world’s most produced passenger aircraft and the only representative of super-large passenger aircraft. It first flew in 2005 and entered service in 2007 after completing all tests. From 2003 to 2021, Airbus produced a total of 254 A380-800s.
For Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, iniBuilds recreated the aircraft in the highest possible detail. Players can expect a fully detailed cockpit and cabin, interactive elements, sophisticated avionics and flight control systems. Players will be able to choose between two engine options – the Rolls-Royce Trent 900 and the Engine Alliance GP7200, each with its own characteristics. Depending on the configuration, the aircraft can carry up to 853 passengers, has a maximum takeoff weight of 575 tons and a range of up to 9,200 miles.
There are 2 liveries available at launch – branded iniBuilds and unpainted white. The price of the Airbus A380 in Microsoft Flight Simulator is $74.49.
