Should there be a new Airbus plane on the aircraft sales page. (A350)
Designed to challenge the B777

eeeh last time I check the aircraft is not even build yet.....so calm down

BUT in the future yeah

Design isn't even final yet, so it would be premature to add it.

It also competes with the B787, not the B777.

Not that this is a regular occurence, but I would think that AE should wait until there is at least a flight test aircraft before adding the plane to the game. eg, the A380 isn't in service yet but it is in the game.

Honestly, i think yes, but i been playing AE for almost a year, and hence far, the only real work i've seen done on the game was the new route page torque put in.

LOL I second that...now when I think about it

[airline55]

sure, but only if you add the two new Boeings

First of all, u need hard data like fuel flow, thrust, etc.. and at the moment, that data isnt around and what is around as just figures, which are yet to be proven.

So, for the moment, dont think the A350 nor B787 would be introduced without proper data been evaluated first..

[FuriousFalcon]

yeah but then again in real life the 777 eats the A330 alive, but in the game its completely different so...does it really matter?

Hmm... Furious, u know, the B777 competes with the A340 while the A330 competes with the B767....

Last I checked, the A380 stats were the prelim ones......

Either way, bigger fish to fry first.

[quicktime]

lets get the game fixed , nvm this other stuff!

[Fly_Germany]

A350 = Airbus A330 with new engines and fuselage length, - should be called the A330-400 but designed (they say designed even though it looks just like an A330) to compete against the 787 since they released just after the 787 got some firm orders from big airlines.. mayby im all boeing but my opinion is that it should be released into AE when everythings is fixed up, even though its my most disliked airbus

oh c'mon, it also competes with the A330 in some ways, there's not much difference, but anyways Im just saying the 777 should be superior not like in the game even the A332 beats the 777! thats just not right!

[VC-10]

There is actually a lot of difference. Yes, they should have started again from scratch, but it has a new nose, new rear fusealage, re-desighned wing with new winglets and the new enginse. The fusealage is made of aluminium-lithium, which is stronger and lighter. They have added 15cm into the internal floor width. The cabin will also be presurised to a lower altitude and will be more humid, and will feature a cockpit similar the the A380s. Not just an A330 with new engines.

You are so close. When it was originally announced, that's exactly what it was: An A330 with B787 engines. Not until a few airlines showed interest did they announce some of the redesigned or new features.
