iniBuilds has shared a short but promising update about their highly anticipated Airbus A350 for Microsoft Flight Simulator. A brand-new teaser reel has dropped on their Instagram, offering simmers a glance at the progress being made as testing for the aircraft advances. The reel highlights the A350-1000 variant, featuring a variety of liveries from global operators.
The A350-900 has also received updates since the previous teasers, including the accurate implementation of the distinctive landing gear bogie tilt.
What’s in the reel?
The reel presents the A350-1000 in several liveries, showcasing its taller and longer design compared to its sibling, the A350-900. We catch a few glimpses of the aircraft sporting the colors of British Airways, Etihad, Cathay Pacific, and Ethiopian Airlines.
With testing now in the beta phase, iniBuilds’ QA teams are now surely hard at work ensuring the aircraft meets the high standards expected by the flight simulation community.
Last we heard about the iniBuilds A350…
Last month, iniBuilds unveiled a trailer showcasing the A350’s extensive feature set, including advanced systems like custom terrain radar, Navigraph integration, and the exclusive Situation Manager. The team confirmed a dual-platform release for both MSFS 2020 and MSFS 2024 in Q1 2025.
Key features highlighted at the time included dynamic simulations such as structural vibrations and GPS jamming, intricate maintenance tools accessible via the Electronic Flight Bag, and deep system fidelity, including over 80 electrical buses and real-time load computations.
With both the A350-900 and A350-1000 slated for release at launch and the ultra-long-range (ULR) variant planned as a free update later in 2025, the A350 project is shaping up to be one of the most detailed airliner simulations in Microsoft Flight Simulator!
