Customers can access this update right now via the Flight Sim Labs Control Center, through the experimental channel (instructions here).

As is customary with our experimental updates, we will be pushing it to the Public channel after a few days.

The response to the FSLabs A321 has been overwhelming, with the community highlighting the incredible attention to detail and realism that sets this aircraft apart.

Oliver Burton, a long-time fan of our work, summed up his excitement:

“I picked up the A321 as soon as it was available and just want to say fantastic work, guys – it was absolutely worth the wait! Even with limited time that evening, I managed a quick flight in France, and everything worked flawlessly. The flight model, ground handling, and takeoff/landing are superb. For the first time in MSFS, I genuinely felt like I was landing a 60+ ton airliner – it really settles into the ground perfectly. None of that usual floaty, skating-on-ice feeling you get in MSFS. And, of course, the systems, features, and rock-solid feel of the autoflight are everything we’ve come to expect from your P3D buses.”

Darren Howie, a real-world Airbus pilot with over 15 years of experience and 10,000+ flight hours on the A320 family, had this to say:

“Having flown the real A320/321/330 for years, accuracy is everything to me, and this addon hits the mark. I’ve tried many Airbus addons, and they just don’t measure up—until now. From the techniques I use in the real jet to the way it handles landing, the FSLabs A321 is a perfect match. It’s great to have FSLabs back, delivering the level of quality that has been trusted for nearly a decade by hundreds of real-world Airbus pilots to train and practice with. The attention to detail is phenomenal, and it’s clear a huge amount of effort and passion has gone into this release.”

Philipp Schwaegerl praised the small details that make the aircraft come alive:

“I’ve always loved the little details in the FSLabs Airbus that no one else replicates. The seamless GSX integration, realistic icing effects, bugs on the windshield, and so many small touches remind me why this addon feels so special. It’s like it has a soul, and that’s something I haven’t felt in other aircraft. The cockpit displays are crystal clear, and from the moment I switch on the batteries and GPU, it feels like I’m back home in the beloved FSL Airbus.”

Miguel Santos, a longtime user of our Airbus on the P3D platform, expressed his excitement:

“As someone who spent countless hours with your Airbus on P3D, I was eagerly awaiting this release – and you’ve delivered in spades! From the moment I initialized my first flight, it felt like being back at home. The process was smooth, intuitive, and everything worked flawlessly. I completed a 3-hour flight, and it was immersive from takeoff to landing. Even minor doubts – like throttle reverser assignments in MSFS – were quickly solved with the documentation and forums. The approach, the landing, and the flare were just perfect. This is the level of immersion I was missing, and I’m so glad to see it again.”

This update reflects our dedication to providing the most accurate, immersive Airbus experience possible in Microsoft Flight Simulator. Your feedback drives us, and we’re proud to deliver a product that pilots – virtual and real – can enjoy.

We’ll continue to refine and improve, but for now, we hope you enjoy this latest update to the FSLabs A321. As always, thank you for your support.
