A320 Flight Simulator
An Airbus A320 flight simulator typically has the actual A320 model, but may also include more models from the A320 family.
The A320 is both a specific plane, the Airbus A320, as well as a family of planes, which includes newer models released after the origional A320, which include the A321, the A318, and the A319. The highly acclaimed Flight Pro Sim, has several versions of the A320 available.

Airbus has always had a long and strong rivalry with Boeing, which has led to remarkable innovations and diversifications from each company. The Airbus A320 is a narrow body passenger aircraft, especially popular in Europe, where an A320 flight simulator is highly coveted.
The A320 is the second best selling passenger airplane in the world, and has seen increasingly steady demand as the air industry has shifted away from the more costly planes with excessive seating capacity and cargo space.
Putting the A320 flight simulator through its paces in Flight Pro Sim is easy. As already mentioned, you’ll have access to several A320 models, as well as other Airbus models like the A330, and A380.
These Airbus models are some of the newest added to Flight Pro SIm, and are still being tweaked as of the time of this review.
As such, the models are still relatively barebones, and the physics aren’t quite perfectly implemented yet, but they’re being furiously worked on by a team of French game developers and aircraft enthusiasts, and promise to be as fully robust as the many other planes available in the Flight Pro Sim.
The Airbus’s main headquarters are in France, so it’s fitting that France has received some of the greatest attention to detail as far as its environment goes. The city of Paris is build by fully 3-D models, and the rolling hills and vineyards of the countryside are beautifully rendered and detailed.
In fact, much of Europe has received this same loving attention to detail, making it perhaps the most interesting area of Flight Pro Sim’s world to explore, via its A320 flight simulator.
One aspect of the A320 that has been fully integrated into the game is its cockpit, which perfectly replicates that of the real A320, including the look of its glass windows, which were the first of its kind ever to appear in a commercial aircraft.
The A320 flight simulator occupies the middle ground when it comes to difficulty. The plane manoeuvres well, and is typically more forgiving than some of the largest passenger jets, yet it still provids an enjoyable challenge and authentic experience for A320 fans.
Flight Pro Sim’s extensive collection of aircraft is undoubtedly its greatest strength, and the inclusion of several Airbus models is testament to that fact. This popular, yet sometimes overlooked model when it comes to flight simulators, has found a home on Flight Pro Sim, where it continues to be developed to the standard demanded of it by this fine flight simulator. Fans of aviation and the A320 family will not be disappointed in this game.
