Love the long haul content! Really enjoy your videos!! Cannot wait for the Ini A350 long hauls next going to be an amazing journey ❤

[@A330Driver]

I'm really looking forward to those as well!

[@QF332]

Hallo, I just wanted to say that I love whenever you speak German in your videos as I am currently trying to learn the language. I always try to pay attention to it. Machen Sie weiter so! 😀

[@A330Driver]

haha, thanks! I'll keep doing so wherever it makes sense :)

[@divid3dbyZero]

Awesome to see the climb performance is more accurate!

[@AndyFromYorkshire]

You fly over Stockport when arriving on 23R, not Manchester city centre. I always look out for the impressive railway viaduct and B&Q store when coming into EGCC.

[@buzzy4537]

I know it's an absurd request, being that It's a long ahh flight, but would you ever try the route mxp-->hnd? (Nice videos btw, i use them like podcasts when i study, your voice is very relaxing and it helps me to focus)

[@sanatacanozsayn5610]

Hi, which app you are using for read OFP. In your app they categories wx, flight plan etc. I am using navigraph app. And thanks for this awesome video.

[@rudyseghers6320]

No Emanuel, you are not in the space shuttle (26:00), although the cockpit looks a bit like one. What an amazing plane.

[@KeepBlueSideUp]

GSX: Great piece of software, but very frustrating when it lets you down after a long flight. I use it a lot. Sorry you had issues at the gate.

[@andrewbennett2582]

I didn’t think the FBW A380 even takes into account the entered average wind. It just bases the calculations on the current wind as if it would be that for the rest of the flight, which is why the estimated times and fuel burn changes so much during the flight.

[@ItzChickenYall]

Yea it’s also why the T/D ETA isn’t accurate

[@andrewbennett2582]

@ yep

[@akasharka8344]

Nice flight! Any chance of a flight on the 777?

[@marcusnewell3149]

Vielen Dank für deine super Arbeit mit dem Kanal. Ich würde mich mal über ein video mit den Airbus A330-200 von Discover Airlines, da die bald ausgemustert werden. Mach weiter so, und viel Spaß beim Airbus A330-200/A330-300 fliegen aus Frankfurt!

[@A330Driver]

Hi Marcus, die würde ich auch sehr gerne mal fliegen auf dem Kanal, leider gibt es aber aktuell keine Livery für den -200. Es gibt aktuell nur den -300'er.

[@isirasamarasinghe748]

FBW changed the control model (flight controls )in dev version. Does it now feel much more realistic when compared to real controls

[@roberto-38]

It will be perfect if you could do a graphic settings video, I have a pretty good pc but it doesn’t look that good, thanks

[@A330Driver]

Hi, it's simply Ultra. No graphic mods or anything installed.

[@SamBolt09]

I need better handling on final and removal of those windshield textures before i fly the 380 again

[@saeedasadi3383]

how did you get the livery to work? ive downloaded several into community folder and MS24 does not detect it ..

[@georgeseitanidis746]

What software do you use for the announcements like entering the runway and how many metres are remaining on the runway?

[@Gintlegramme]

I think it's vRAAS by Land3 Simulations

[@A330Driver]

That's exactly it! Excellent little software, highly recommendable!

[@Hopelek]

19:16 During the briefing I missheard: We have 5 zons extra which gives us about half an hour or one Borat. I laughed a bit too hard at that.

[@klau_stuhl0168]

Hi,mjust love that videos! Do you fly the floghts in teal time? Or do you increase the simrate?

[@A330Driver]

Hi, I typically fly these over night in real time and then speed them up in the video editor. When time acceleration becomes properly available in the sim I'll start using that again, but for the time being it doesn't work that well in FS24.

[@polyatoms77]

Hey! Love ur Videos! do u think the Aerosoft Frankfurt is worth it now? I heard they had a rocky start but alls well now...

[@A330Driver]

Hi, I think Aerosoft's Frankfurt has pretty much always been worth it. It's a great scenery!

[@newgeorgexci]

Do you use the experimental version or the stable?

[@honzavlk6208]

Hi, what is the pop-up "tablet" you are using for navigraph ? Actually i maybe just missed that they already have some kind of tablet :-), maybe i just missed that.

[@A330Driver]

Hi, it's the standard tablet in FS2024.

[@honzavlk6208]

@@A330Driver Thx, i am not using 2024, just 2020, so i dont know this feature.

[@lazyboi749]

Can you do Melbourne - Singapore? :)

[@A330Driver]

Almost - I've already recorded Sydney - Singapore, but didn't have the time to edit it just yet. Coming soon :D

[@lazyboi749]

@@A330DriverThanks Emmanuel :)

[@XHMaiDi]

How's the A380's performence in 2024 compared to 2020?

[@pilot.sergio4]

It is not "officially" compatible with 2024 so performance may be rough. There was some hitching and freezing in the video, could be the aircraft with the sim, could also be his recording software. Only way to find out is try it out on your system and see from there.

[@3mate1]

I downloaded this and it went into my MSFS2020 Community folder, so I took it out and put it in my 2024 community folder too, why can't I find it in the airplane selection menu in FS2024? How did you install it to 2024?

[@rrayboii2692]

Try re-downloading it, it worked for me

[@XYQW7]

Do you use the development version or the stable one? Because last time I tried MSFS2024 using the development version, the sim did not start anymore...

[@A330Driver]

I use the development version. Haven't had such problems with it yet.

[@natureaqua476]

you are using the SU1 beta update?

[@A330Driver]

Not yet, I'm kinda happy I have a stable system for the time being.

[@natureaqua476]

@@A330Driver Thanks for the answer. I tried SU1 Beta but it is very unstable for me and I had a lot of problems. I also had problems with FBW add-ons and scenery. I am back to the stable version

[@rrayboii2692]

Quick inquiry, are you using any scenery mods by chance and if so which because I would most probably download them.

[@A330Driver]

Hi, it's the Asobo handcrafted Dubai and Tai Models Manchester.

[@CaptainRich75]

How do you get the pop out tablet on screen?

[@A330Driver]

Press Tab

[@simwingsfi9720]

What is your favorite airliner in msfs/msfs24?

[@A330Driver]

In FS24 it's easily the Fenix Airbus. In MSFS I wouldn't want to decide between the Fenix and the PMDG offerings.

[@isaacridge4493]

would you ever join emirates? Can I ask, with the A380, I have constant memory leaks in the FBW 380, do you have the same and if so do you have any suggestions to fix it/restrict it?

[@lordmashie]

I've had similar issues in the past (though for the whole of FS2020, not just one addon). I fixed it with Intelligent Standby List Cleaner.

[@A330Driver]

As long as I don't loose my job at home I wouldn't join Emirates. Should Europe's aviation industry suffer a major collapse and there's no chance for a job here I would consider them. Why's that? Because I don't want to live in Dubai. It's surely a great place for holidays or layovers, but not a place where I'd want to live. They also fly the bloody **** out of their pilots. I haven't noticed any memory learks with the A380. Best to ask about that in their discord.

[@Quotenwagnerianer]

Another german pilot KZbinr talked a bit about the Emirates situation. You'd be insane to take a job with them. First of all working in the UAE you have absolutely zero job protection. They can fire you and kick you out of the country within 3 days. That already happened. Because of that you have to constantly take care to not do anything that is considered "indecent" or "offensive" under islamic laws, because that can be reason enough for you to get fired. The first batch of foreign pilots that Emirates hired were offered a bonus of 1 Million Dollars should they reach 10 years working with the company. I doubt even a single one made it that far. Especially because the company can simply make up a reason on the spot for you to fire you, and you basically have no legal protection or any courts that will help you in case you decide to sue them over it. And then like Emi said there is the whole living in the UAE thing. A rotten society through and through. All the glitz can't hide that fact.

[@strikingscorp4659]

@@Quotenwagnerianer You are absolutely correct, the UAE is just a very decorated trashcan. Its only suitable for the Upper-class / Celebrities and not even for the long term

[@yams900]

Danke M !

[@A330Driver]

Gerne 😊

[@Yamato-tp2kf]

Does someone has a video explaining how to insert in the files of the liveries for the A380? I tried but MSFS 2020 don't detect the liveries...

[@A330Driver]

Of course it depends on how the painters create their liveries, but the majority of them just needs to be pasted into the community folder.

[@sticknrudder1903]

The stutter is getting terrible, 2020 and 2024, I had a hard time dealing with that as it really broke my flying experience and VATSIM experience

[@Highskiller]

For me its only with the FBW a380, the Performance is absolutely horrible whenever i fly it. I have not much Hope that they can improve it in the near Future.

[@sticknrudder1903]

@@Highskiller That's true I think, I flew with Fenix and it was smooth as silk. I should fly with the PMDG 77W to see how it is over there soon.

[@benponce8573]

​@sticknrudder1903 my fix is to use the 4k version and stable version with frame gen off. The plane is one of the most detailed plane on the catalog so it'll try your system the most. I've had the stuttering issues pretty much every flight before the fix.
