Major new features:
- XP12 adaptations (available after XP12 is released)
- Custom engine model for more realistic thrust and fuel flow values
- FMGS plan editing overhaul, enabling temporary flight plans also for the alternate plan
- Database holds are now available - Offset function now available

- Cockpit 3d model rework, including improved switch geometry and moving cockpit seats/arm rests
- Cockpit side windows can now be opened. This will affect air conditioning simulation.
- Addition of new failure modes for a total of 249 different failure modes, these include now recoverable computer failures
- Implementation of all in-cockpit RESET switches (Airbus long range equivalent to in-cockpit circuit breakers)
Minor new features:
- VLS increases with speed brake deflection - Made the engine inlets smoother. (Refined grid)
- Added new engine failure modes: recoverable flame out, engine failure with damage, hot start,
- You can now put on the oxygen mask by removing it from its container
- Added (ETP) circle on ND to display the Equitime point
- Option to control internal and external volume levels via x-plane sliders or custom ISCS sliders
- Added Filtering and rate limiting for FMGS position for more realistic ND behavior on ADIRU init completion
- Open pax doors or cockpit windows now have an effect on the temperature in the adjacent zone
- Added option to always have the display brightness rotaries starting at the 80% position, even for cold and dark start
Bug fixes:
- Fixed rear fuselage geometry to incorporated sloped windows and cabin floor. Unfortunately this requires rework of all addon liveries with the latest paint kit.
- Corrected trigger condition for NW STRG INOP status message
- Allow regular gear extension with ADR2 data only
- Reenabled constraint editing directly on the FPLN A page
Minor new features:
- Cargo fire extinguishing test is now operational (now for real)
- Added the Option to have NAV mode reengage automatically on Go Around initiation
- Updated engine model to allow "seeing through" the bypass channel as in real life
Bug fixes:
- Fixed an issue with sounds and particle effect after loading a situation with landing gear retracted
- Fixed dancing XPDR switch after pressing CLR twice
- Increase flap lever sound volume by 3dB
- MCDU CI entry is now range limited
- Inhibited the speed trend indication below 30kts IAS on ground
- Vertical FD guidance during TO rotation much smoother now
- Improved FMA indications for ALT CRZ capture and VS 0
- Improved behaviour of the ALT push button on FCU
- Improved default wing flex magnitude
- Engine sound volume readjustment
- Changed Radalt offset such that radalt reads 0 when first set of wheels touches
Version 1.0.2 (January 6th 2022)
Minor new features:
- Electrical system now features battery self test
- ISCS sliders now allow editing the values with keyboard for better precision
- Custom landing gear particle model
- Custom landing gear tire rotation model to allow individual speeds for the forward and aft wheels on the same bogey
- Cargo fire extinguishing test is now operational
- Fault injections can now trigger on increasing or on decreasing values of altitude and air speed
- Added flap animation and nose landing gear animation to taxi cam
- Added CVR self test
- Added chocks to keep aircraft in place at the gate
- Reworked cockpit, ground contact and engine sounds (with friendly support of Henrik Ku)
- Added animated hydraulic lines to landing gear
- Added animated RAT
Bug fixes:
- Resolved an issue with the brake fans
- DC BAT bus shows invalid data, if BAT1 and BAT2 are switched off
- When preselecting a heading on ground, the FCU heading window will initialize with the current heading
- Reduced IRS drift values by half for more realistic values
- Made behaviour of CLR button XPDR panel more realistic
- When selecting flaps 1 for landing, the Status page will now be called (As it should) if status is not normal
- When status paged called automatically, the STS key now lights up and can be used to remove the status page
- When Using Auto Brake to full stop, pressing pedals won't disengage it like is the case in real life
- Minor FMGS fixes
- Corrected locations of wing condensation emitters.
- Moved location of engine particle emitters further aft to better match engine location
- Fixed standby compass
- Corrected pack inhibition condition on ground with doors open (applies now only when engines are running)
- Fixed animation of spoiler 3 actuator on right wing
- Fixed flex temp range
- Fixed FBW roll angle limits
- Improved AP turn direction depending on FCU heading rotation knob
- FCU green button lights now respond to the ANN LT switch as they should (instead of the FCU background light rotary)
- SD Weight/CG on ground indication is now a function of the data entered on INIT B page, and will be replaced by FMGEC estimated weight in flight
- Retuned idle thrust for more accurate descent profile following
- Improved reliability of automatic pitch trim setting prior to take-off
- Increased ground cart pressure for better engine start performance
