Connaître l'avion

The A350 evolved from an early proposal related to the A330 into the clean-sheet A350 XWB programme. Its first flight took place in 2013. Rolls-Royce Trent XWB engines power the production family, with the A350-900 and longer A350-1000 serving different capacity needs.

The swept wings, curved wingtips and dark cockpit-window surround make the type readily recognisable. Inside, it belongs to Airbus's fly-by-wire wide-body lineage. The simulator manuals identify the included variants, flight-management features and equipment.

Preparing a production aircraft for Project Sunrise

The A350-1000ULR programme responds to Qantas's Project Sunrise proposal for direct flights from eastern Australia to London and New York. Airbus's June 2026 account describes a distinctive challenge: the instrumented test aircraft, MSN707, was also intended for eventual airline service. Engineers had to install monitoring equipment while preserving its cabin and avoiding the invasive modifications possible on a permanent prototype.

The work brought together production mechanics, flight-test specialists and the airline. Sensors monitored the additional rear fuel tank, while heated passenger dummies helped the team study the cabin environment. Test flight engineer Laurent Rossignol described the responsibility of testing the customer's future aircraft. These were development and certification preparations at the time of the report, not an account of passenger service.

A new cockpit that still rewards attention to the basics

Wuerfel flew the first A350-1000 prototype from the left seat with Airbus test pilot Peter Chandler in command. He liked the wide cockpit view and the ability to share information on the displays without turning away from the other pilot. Hand flying felt precise and responsive for such a large aircraft. The demonstration also let him observe an automated emergency descent in reserved airspace, with air traffic control informed in advance.

Returning to Toulouse, he flew the final approach with manual thrust and found himself working to settle on the right power setting in gusts. The touchdown was smooth, and the braking system brought the aircraft towards the selected exit. Taxiing provided a small reminder that size still mattered: Chandler prompted him to slow for a sharp turn, and Wuerfel checked the groundspeed more carefully after underestimating it from the high cockpit. These are impressions of that lightly loaded prototype flight in 2018.

Accepting a new aircraft takes more than a delivery flight

Hazzard describes accepting Cathay Pacific's A350s at Toulouse as a sequence of preparation, ground checks, flight work and reporting. The acceptance team rehearsed the profile in a simulator when it had been some time since its previous test. Before the flying began, a conference with Airbus engineers covered the build and remaining defects. The first day of system checks could be long, while the pilots were still contending with jet lag after travelling from Hong Kong.

In the air, the crew followed a planned programme with dedicated air traffic control support, while cabin engineers checked the interior. Hazzard particularly notes the A350's responsive handling during low-speed protection checks. Returning to Toulouse usually included an autoland to check that function, followed by data collation and further reports. A different crew brought the aircraft home after technical acceptance and transfer of ownership.

Sharing the flight deck on an exceptionally long test mission

Pepin describes the July 2026 development flights of A350-1000ULR MSN707 between Toulouse and Melbourne, including his role as captain on the return journey. Fuel-system and cabin-temperature measurements filled the long hours: the outward flight completed much of the programme, leaving additional test points for the return. Two Qantas pilots joined for that leg to gain experience in the ULR variant alongside the Airbus crew.

Managing fatigue was part of organising the work. Pepin explains that four-hour pilot shifts overlapped, with a change every two hours to support handovers. The crew slept in the rear cabin-crew rest area because instrumentation occupied the new pilot-rest compartments. At least one Airbus test pilot remained in a pilot seat when a Qantas pilot was at the controls. Pepin valued the chance to exchange knowledge during the mission. This manufacturer interview concerns an instrumented development flight, with no airline passengers aboard.

The A350 evolved from an early proposal related to the A330 into the clean-sheet A350 XWB programme. Its first flight took place in 2013. Rolls-Royce Trent XWB engines power the production family, with the A350-900 and longer A350-1000 serving different capacity needs.

This starting point selects Airbus A350-1000. Its aircraft-level settings do not select a particular developer’s custom systems.

The spring stays independent of airspeed. Directed aerodynamic loading is omitted.

Pitch-trim relief is off. Autopilot following is off.

Controls and trim

The iniBuilds A350 manual describes load-factor sidestick demand, one-g automatic trim and sidestick priority. The -900, -1000 and -900ULR are separate configurations. FlightFactor's implementation has its own normal-law, autopilot and hydraulic systems. Annunciated autopilot or flight-director modes identify guidance state; they do not supply a moving sidestick reference.

About the values

The gains are normalized profile settings. They describe the chosen effect balance; hand force depends on the device and its output limits. IAS references are tuning values rather than operating limits. Physical acceptance of this revision remains pending.

Master gain & control system

Master gain85%

L'échelle globale finale appliquée à tout ce que produit le modèle, avant la limite du périphérique.

Plus : tout (ressort, charges, effets) se renforce ensemble.

Moins : tout s'adoucit ensemble.

Pourquoi ici : Scales overall profile strength while preserving effect balance, subject to device and output limits.

Forces

Spring strength55%

La force de rappel de base qui ramène le manche au neutre. Toutes les autres forces s'empilent dessus. Trop faible, le manche paraît mou en vol normal ; trop forte, elle lutte contre la main et masque les signaux plus fins.

Plus : un centrage plus ferme qui résiste davantage à la main.

Moins : un manche plus mou qui ne compte que sur la charge aérodynamique.

Pourquoi ici : Fixed centering follows the A350's passive sidestick arrangement instead of interpreting load-factor demand as aerodynamic hand force. The baseline spring is 0.55. Low-speed spring blending is off.

Cockpit and flight control familiesA350 XWB developer-authorized XP12 productA350 aircraft manual
Spring deadband1%

Une petite zone neutre autour du centre où le ressort reste muet, pour que les micro-mouvements à l'arrêt ne vibrent pas. Plus large, c'est plus calme mais plus lâche ; plus étroite, plus précis mais parfois nerveux au neutre.

Plus : un centre plus calme mais plus lâche, avec plus de jeu.

Moins : un centre plus serré qui peut vibrer au repos.

Pourquoi ici : Sets travel around the centre before the baseline spring resists. Smaller values engage it sooner.

Forces · Center starting force0.03

Pourquoi ici : The centre preload is 0.03. It ramps outside the 0.01 deadband across 0.05 travel, shaping the passive centre independently of aircraft autotrim.

Forces · Center starting force transition0.05

Pourquoi ici : Sets the travel used to ramp in centre preload. Wider intervals make its onset more gradual.

Overall aerodynamic load4%

Une échelle maîtresse sur les deux charges d'axe, appliquée avant leur équilibre individuel. Les profils la laissent en général en place et règlent les deux axes.

Plus : les deux axes chargent plus fort.

Moins : les deux axes s'allègent ensemble.

Pourquoi ici : The stored 0.04 aerodynamic-load gain is inactive under the fixed-centre control law.

Airspeed blendingFalse

Active la fenêtre d'engagement basse vitesse du ressort (début/plein en nœuds ci-dessus). Désactivé, le ressort est constant à toute vitesse.

Pourquoi ici : Allows baseline spring strength to rise with indicated airspeed where the control law permits it.

Low-speed spring floor50%

La part du ressort qui survit à l'arrêt, avant que la vitesse ne crée la moindre force aérodynamique. Un plancher haut garde le manche ferme au parking ; un plancher bas donne le jeu de câbles d'un avion léger au parking.

Plus : un manche plus ferme au parking et au roulage.

Moins : un manche mou au parking qui ne s'éveille qu'avec la vitesse.

Pourquoi ici : Sets low-speed spring strength as a fraction of baseline when blending is enabled. One keeps full strength.

Spring engagement start20 kt

La vitesse à laquelle le ressort quitte son plancher basse vitesse vers la pleine raideur : le début du réveil des commandes au roulage de décollage.

Pourquoi ici : Sets the IAS where the low-speed spring blend starts rising. This is a feel threshold, not a flight limit.

Spring engagement full90 kt

La vitesse où le ressort atteint sa pleine raideur. Entre le début et ce point, le centrage se raffermit avec le vent relatif.

Pourquoi ici : Sets the IAS where the low-speed blend reaches baseline strength; high-speed stiffening also uses it.

Vitesse de réglage des forces275

La vitesse indiquée où la charge aérodynamique atteint son niveau de conception. Elle ancre toute la courbe au domaine réel : un 172 charge dès 110 nœuds, un jet bien plus tard.

Plus : les charges arrivent plus tard ; le manche reste léger jusqu'à plus vite.

Moins : les charges arrivent plus tôt et la croisière pèse davantage.

Pourquoi ici : Sets the IAS reference for aerodynamic loading. It is an estimate, not published cruise TAS or a flight limit.

Centre firmness vs speed0%

Combien le centrage lui-même se raidit avec la vitesse, en plus des charges de braquage. Zéro garde un centre constant ; plus fait centrer dur en croisière et souple en tour de piste.

Plus : un centre qui durcit nettement avec la vitesse.

Moins : une sensation de centre constante à toute vitesse.

Pourquoi ici : Adds permitted spring resistance above the full-blend speed. Zero removes this high-speed increase.

Centre stiffening cap5

La limite haute du raidissement lié à la vitesse, pour que le vol très rapide ne remonte pas le ressort sans borne.

Plus : plus de raidissement total permis à haute vitesse.

Moins : le raidissement se bride plus tôt.

Pourquoi ici : Limits the squared airspeed ratio used for high-speed spring stiffening; it is not a device-force cap.

Aileron load100%

La charge de roulis soutenue issue du braquage d'ailerons et de la vitesse, équilibrée indépendamment du tangage. Avec la charge de profondeur, elle fixe l'harmonie des commandes dont parlent les essais.

Plus : des efforts de roulis plus lourds.

Moins : des ailerons plus légers, plus vifs.

Pourquoi ici : Roll and pitch aerodynamic scales are 1 and 1, respectively. These stored weights do not create directed aerodynamic loading while that term is inactive. The pitch spring-travel curve reaches output 1 at input 1. The roll spring-travel curve reaches output 0.3 at input 1. Spring-travel response contributes separately to axis balance.

Elevator load100%

La charge de tangage soutenue issue du braquage de profondeur et de la vitesse, équilibrée indépendamment du roulis. Le levier principal du poids en tangage d'un type. Il ne touche ni ailerons, ni ressort, ni trim, ni buffet.

Plus : des efforts de tangage soutenus plus lourds en vitesse.

Moins : une profondeur plus légère, moins musclée à tenir.

Pourquoi ici : Scales pitch aerodynamic loading; pitch spring travel and trim responses are separate settings.

Max output force55%

Un plafond par force stable de tangage ou roulis avant le périphérique : la garde contre le claquement ou la saturation du matériel en manœuvre forte.

Plus : des pics de force stable plus élevés avant écrêtage.

Moins : un plafond plus doux ; les manœuvres dures s'aplatissent plus tôt.

Pourquoi ici : Caps directed-force output. Native spring effects and device limits remain separate.

Trim

Trim relief (elevator)0%

Combien le trim de profondeur soulage l'effort tenu et déplace le point de repos du manche. À 100 %, un avion bien compensé ne demande aucune pression : le geste réel de compenser la charge.

Plus : le trim retire plus d'effort tenu ; à 100 %, plein trim l'annule.

Moins : vous continuez à tenir de l'effort même compensé.

Pourquoi ici : The documented automatic pitch trim belongs to the aircraft's fly-by-wire response and leaves this profile's hardware centre independent. Pitch relief is off, with stored authority 0; roll authority is 0.

Cockpit and flight control familiesA350 XWB developer-authorized XP12 productA350 aircraft manual
Trim relief (aileron)0%

Le même soulagement pour le trim de roulis. La plupart des avions légers n'ont pas de vrai trim d'ailerons, donc zéro ; les types qui en ont reçoivent une valeur adaptée.

Plus : le trim de roulis retire plus d'effort tenu.

Moins : le trim de roulis fait moins.

Pourquoi ici : Scales supported roll-trim relief and permitted centre movement. Zero removes roll response.

Effect gains · Ground

Runway rumble0%

Vibration de roulement issue de la vitesse des roues et du revêtement : la texture du bitume, de l'herbe ou du gravier sous le train.

Plus : une texture de surface plus forte dans le manche.

Moins : un roulage plus lisse.

Pourquoi ici : Sets rolling texture strength, modified by speed, surface and undercarriage configuration.

Gear bumps0%

Chocs courts et distincts des joints, ornières et surfaces rugueuses : la ponctuation au-dessus du grondement continu.

Plus : des chocs plus nets des joints et ornières.

Moins : des détails de sol plus doux.

Pourquoi ici : Sets gear-bump texture during ground motion, separate from touchdown impact.

Effect gains · Airframe

Stall buffet6%

Buffet de cellule à l'approche du décrochage et pendant l'avertisseur : la voix de cette aile quand elle est mécontente. Les types à décrochage franc reçoivent un buffet modéré, le klaxon porte l'alerte.

Plus : un tremblement pré-décrochage plus fort.

Moins : une aile plus discrète ; le klaxon porte l'alerte.

Pourquoi ici : Sets stall-buffet strength. Zero removes the cue without changing simulator stalls or warnings.

Mach buffet6%

Buffet transsonique près de la limite de Mach. Parlant pour les jets près de MMO, zéro pour pistons et turbopropulseurs qui n'y vont jamais.

Plus : un buffet transsonique plus fort près de la limite de Mach.

Moins : un vol plus lisse à haut Mach.

Pourquoi ici : Sets high-Mach buffet strength; onset and full-strength thresholds are separate.

Flap buffet0%

Vibration basse fréquence de cellule avec les volets dans le vent, dans la fenêtre où ils travaillent vraiment l'air.

Plus : un vol plus rugueux volets au travail.

Moins : des volets d'approche plus doux.

Pourquoi ici : Sets flap buffet at the configured position and speed gates. Flap movement texture is separate.

Gear buffet0%

Le tambourinement du train rentrant sorti dans le flux. Zéro pour les trains fixes, dont la cellule ne change jamais de forme.

Plus : plus de tambourinement train sorti.

Moins : un vol train sorti plus propre.

Pourquoi ici : Sets gear aerodynamic buffet; movement and ground-contact cues are separate.

Stick shaker50%

Le vibreur de manche dédié, déclenché par l'avertisseur de décrochage de l'avion. Seuls les types à vrai vibreur reçoivent une valeur ; les autres comptent sur buffet et klaxon.

Plus : un vibreur plus dur.

Moins : un vibreur plus discret.

Pourquoi ici : Sets triggered shaker strength; inactive while the shaker feature is disabled.

Effect gains · Engine, mechanical & drag

Touchdown thump0%

Le coup unique au toucher, proportionnel au taux de chute : un kiss se murmure, une arrivée ferme cogne.

Plus : un coup plus dur au toucher.

Moins : des arrivées plus douces.

Pourquoi ici : Sets landing-impact strength; landing telemetry and response shape determine the pulse.

Reverse rumble0%

Vibration de roulage sous inversion de poussée ou plage bêta. Zéro pour les types sans reverse.

Plus : un roulage plus rugueux sous reverse.

Moins : une reverse plus discrète.

Pourquoi ici : Sets reverse-thrust vibration with valid reverser and engine conditions. Zero removes the cue.

Engine rumble0%

Vibration continue du moteur suivant le régime du ralenti à la pleine puissance : le rappel permanent que quelque chose brûle du carburant devant.

Plus : plus de moteur dans le manche.

Moins : un moteur plus discret.

Pourquoi ici : Sets estimated engine vibration using configured telemetry and response, not measured cockpit vibration.

Flap motion0%

Vibration continue seulement pendant que le simulateur signale les volets réellement en mouvement. Elle suit la course réelle et les pannes, pas un minuteur estimé.

Plus : plus de vibration volets en mouvement.

Moins : des courses de volets plus discrètes.

Pourquoi ici : Sets texture from observed flap movement; a command without movement does not establish the cue.

Autopilot follow

AP follow authority5%

Jusqu'où les ordres du pilote automatique peuvent bouger le manche physique. Minuscule dans MSFS, où un axe déplacé peut être relu comme entrée pilote ; zéro coupe le suivi.

Plus : le pilote automatique bouge visiblement plus votre manche.

Moins : un suivi à peine perceptible.

Pourquoi ici : Sets admitted AP-follow gain, not a percentage of travel. Runtime ownership and input limits still apply.

Spring response

SpringResponse · Travel enabledTrue

Whether this feature is active in this profile.

Pourquoi ici : Applies the configured pitch and roll spring travel curves.

SpringResponse · Output1

Pourquoi ici : Sets response at the second pitch-curve point; it is an endpoint only if its input position is full travel.

SpringResponse · Output0.3

Pourquoi ici : Sets response at the second roll-curve point; its input position and other points determine the travel law.

Stick feel

StickFeel · Trim feel enabledFalse

Whether this feature is active in this profile.

Pourquoi ici : Retained for compatibility and group membership. Trim relief, rather than this flag, controls centre movement.

StickFeel · Trim relief enabledFalse

Whether this feature is active in this profile.

Pourquoi ici : Allows trim relief with supported control law and valid telemetry. Axis authorities set its amount.

StickFeel · Force trim enabledFalse

Whether this feature is active in this profile.

Pourquoi ici : Enables local force trim, separate from aircraft-owned trim and add-on integration qualification.

StickFeel · G load enabledFalse

Whether this feature is active in this profile.

Pourquoi ici : Allows load-factor changes to modify permitted spring laws. Passive fly-by-wire feel can suppress it.

StickFeel · Rate damping enabledFalse

Whether this feature is active in this profile.

Pourquoi ici : Enables rate damping with the configured coefficients and control law.

Autopilot

Autopilot · Follow enabledFalse

Whether this feature is active in this profile.

Pourquoi ici : Autopilot following is off; the configured spring and load retain the hardware feel. Separate neutral hold is on at strength 0.28, when a supported autopilot state admits it.

Autopilot · Neutral hold enabledTrue

Whether this feature is active in this profile.

Pourquoi ici : Permits centering hold during a supported AP state, separate from following a moving target.

Autopilot · Neutral hold strength0.28

Pourquoi ici : Sets admitted AP neutral-hold strength; inactive while neutral hold is disabled.

Aero

Aero · EnabledTrue

Whether this feature is active in this profile.

Pourquoi ici : Enables aerodynamic cues; each still needs nonzero strength and its simulator conditions.

Aero · Max flap index4

Where this effect reaches full strength (or has fully faded, for washouts).

Plus : a more gradual build to a later peak.

Moins : a quicker build.

Pourquoi ici : Sets the final flap index for detent normalization. UP plus three detents uses maximum index3.

Aero · Min flap index2

Where this effect begins fading in.

Plus : the effect begins later.

Moins : it begins earlier.

Pourquoi ici : Sets the first flap detent that admits buffet; this is a handle index, not degrees.

Aero · Shaker enabledFalse

Whether this feature is active in this profile.

Pourquoi ici : Permits shaker at supported warning conditions; the switch does not establish aircraft equipment.

Ground

Ground · EnabledFalse

Whether this feature is active in this profile.

Pourquoi ici : Enables ground effects; each still needs its own strength and contact or motion telemetry.

Engine

Engine · EnabledFalse

Whether this feature is active in this profile.

Pourquoi ici : Enables engine cues with nonzero settings and valid running-engine telemetry.

Mechanical

Mechanical · EnabledTrue

Whether this feature is active in this profile.

Pourquoi ici : Enables accessory cues with configured strengths and observed accessory movement.

Mechanical · Gain0

The strength of this effect.

Plus : a stronger effect.

Moins : a weaker one.

Pourquoi ici : Sets texture from observed gear movement, separate from aerodynamic and touchdown effects.
