So today me and my dad went to best buy (always good Grin) and i saw Airbus A380 for 20 bucks  little much for a plane but hey i still got it. I flew it today and was TOTALLY Shocked amazed. I was expecting to take a hit on framerates but nothing! Aircraft loaded fast and looked great. I totally reccmomend this to anone who has an extra 20 bucks. I do have one question..  how do i get into the passenger cabin?  I hit Shift enter ect but can only get as far as the bottom of the stairs to the cockpit.  I could use some help  Grin

If the box has the name Abacus on it, then it's alright. I have the aircraft as well. Texture wise, it can be made better. I don't know about the dynamics since I don't normally fly the cigar tubes with wings. As for moving about in the cabin, I suggest that you ask around for the F1 View utility. It allows you to go at any distance limitlessly.

I don't know where to find it, that's why I'm telling you to go ask around.

I have the Abacus one.
Its not that good, the model, yes (better than the Wilco one) but system and realism wise it sucks.
They tricked me because the box had "Easy Computing" written on it, nothing to claim that Abacus had made it. Untill you install it.
But I'd say its worth it!  Smiley

The latest release from Abacus "Fly the Airbus Fleet" includes a small program "Cabin View Selector" that allows you to choose the VC viewpoint from the normal pilot's position to one of several positions, first class cabin, business class, economy ....

While the A380 is set up for it, I believe that Cabin View Selector may be offered as a download from Abacus for the A380.

------------------------------------------------
16.NOV.2005 - I uploaded to the payware screenshots a shot of the forward lower cabin of the A-380 taken after the VC view was changed with the Cabin Viewer program.
