 I cant believe it! August 29, 2008
Benjamin Hirsh
I got and was so happy. When i realized it was only for Microsoft Flight Sim 2004 and 2000 I was so pissed! I am hoping to get a refund or by Microsoft Sim 2004.I am so disappointed.I should more clearly that it only works for 2000 and 2004. Not only on the bottom of the game box!Unsatisfied.
 Isn't compatible with acceleration pack February 22, 2008
Don Ali
I bought it week ago and couldn't even fly one of these airplanes. the reasons are:
1- Too heavy to get faster before the end of the runway. It will make your departure too hard or impossible for people who use short-mid runway or have many building around the airport. for long runways, it will fly at the end of it then when u go for high altitude, it will stall!!!!
2- Virtual Cabin isn't good. some panel will not appear when on it because the images files aren't put correctly. some gauge wide the others are thin. some empty areas. to see the panels u need to switch to 2D (F10).
3- No reverse!!!! this is impossible when you start from a gate.
4- once you start playing some of the airbus, your fps will decrease a little.
and many more. these problems will make these airplanes useless unless they released a patch. I sent an email and they responded within 3 hours or less (fast customers support). they said "Yes. the issue comes from a conflict between our software and MS Acceleration Pack. When a patch becomes available, it will be posted to our
website."
but when?????
FSX relesed in 2006. Acceleration Pack at 23-Oct-2007. mostly 5 month and they still working to fix these problems.
I hope they will release the patch within a month at maximum.
btw, it works with fs2002, fs2004 and fsx and the details of the airplanes are very good. also the the whole package is nice and priced nicely. 6 models of airbus which you will not find any add-on similar to it.
Update 26-Feb-2008:
The whole addon isn't fully compatible with FSX!!! In the pack it says it is working great with FSX. I reinstalled the game without the Acceleration Pack or any Service Pack and the problems still there!!!. Then I installed the SP1 and nothing was fixed even with SP2 but you can fly the other airplanes but not the A340.
I'm tweaking the Panel.cfg and the Aircraft.cfg for every plane so I can fix them perfectly soon.
minus 5 stars Abacus.
 Airbus Fleet.....Slightly disappointing February 23, 2006
M. E. Thomson (Houston, TX)
3 out of 4 found this review helpful
I have given this full stars, as it probably is very good software.....but!!, we have not played it yet, my son bought it with an amazon voucher, i checked over the details to make sure it was worth the money and when we received it we found out it is an Expansion pack for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2002/04, which we don't have!!! and will cost us another $25.00 approx.
It does mention quote "Fly the Airbus Fleet for Microsoft Flight Simulator...." but it should have been included or explained better that it is an add on.
Update:- We have now got all the software plus more add ons and my son loves it.
I would highly recommend
