Looking for a certain model

Post by BigQ » Wed Jan 11, 2006 4:42 am

I operate FS2002, and I can't seem to find a more-than-decent model of an A320, in the possibility of expanding our fleet by adding 1 of them. Anyone know where to find one? A model that operates on both FS2004 and 2002 is good enough, i just want to have a relatively good feel before buying :p :roll:

Thanks a lot in advance!

Well, i've never bought any models, but I do love freeware, I think iFDGs A320s run in FS2002, and there are very, very good panels on avsim.com. There's also progect Airbus.

Anyone know about payware320s?

IFDG dont run in 2002, its inpossible to get them above three thousand feet and there horrible to control in 2002.

But...

PSS for £15 they give you the best airbus panel your find aorund, and Excerllent, A319, A320 and A321 CFM and IFE models

Only downside is they only come with the airbus house colours, if you want more the liverys are £5 each

but its a great package

HAHAHAHAHAHA great help guys, but i meant "get a feel before buying for my va"

I've been looking around a bit... all i've found was a good model with textures, using default 747 sounds and panels. It's okay, but i'd rather have an original panel and sound just for a better flying experience- oh and for some reason the a/p doesn't work on it :p

I also had the impression IFDG works on A320 but I might be wrong. Maybe it is time to upgrade to FS2004. I did so a few months ago. I could not stand FS2002 any more. :)

Hahaha that would mean upgrade to a whole new computer! (i use a laptop - sucks when they're old...)

Well, i stopped looking for an A320 and got a 734 instead... now I'm looking for a good model of a 752 or 753 - IFDG would be a place to look? (what does that mean anyways :? )

I did check with them a bit...

Anyhow, this topic is dead, because I just bought FS2004!

iFDG = Internation Flightsim Design Group.

But yeah just so you know, the A320's from iFDG worked fine on my FS2002 (wayyy back then..)
Thanks
