Airliner7 profielkeuzes

Ken het vliegtuig

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.

Airbus A350-900ULR

Free + Pro
MSFS 2020MSFS 2024X-Plane 11X-Plane 12

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 A350-900ULR. 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.

Deze exacte revisie is nog niet beschikbaar voor openbare installatie.

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%

De uiteindelijke totaalschaal over alles wat het model produceert, vóór de apparaatbegrenzing.

Meer: alles (veer, belastingen, effecten) wordt samen sterker.

Minder: alles wordt samen zachter.

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

Forces

Spring strength55%

De basiscentreerkracht die de stick terug naar het midden trekt. Elke andere kracht stapelt hierop. Te laag en de stick voelt slap in normale vlucht; te hoog en hij vecht tegen je hand en maskeert de kleinere signalen erbovenop.

Meer: een steviger centreren dat de hand meer weerstaat.

Minder: een slappere stick die alleen op aerodynamische belasting leunt.

Waarom hier: 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%

Een kleine neutrale zone rond het midden waar de veer stil blijft, zodat minieme bewegingen in rust niet ratelen. Breder is rustiger maar losser; smaller is preciezer maar kan rond het midden trillen.

Meer: een rustiger maar losser midden, met meer speling.

Minder: een strakker midden dat in rust kan trillen.

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

Forces · Center starting force0.03

Waarom hier: 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

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

Overall aerodynamic load4%

Een masterschaal over beide aangehouden asbelastingen, toegepast vóór hun onafhankelijke balans. Profielen laten dit normaal met rust en stemmen de twee asbelastingen af.

Meer: beide assen laden zwaarder.

Minder: beide assen worden samen lichter.

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

Airspeed blendingFalse

Schakelt het lage-snelheidsvenster van de veeraangrijping in (start/vol-knopen hierboven). Uit betekent een constante veer op alle snelheden.

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

Low-speed spring floor50%

Hoeveel van de veer overleeft bij stilstand, voordat luchtsnelheid aerodynamische kracht kan opbouwen. Een hoge vloer houdt de geparkeerde stick stevig; een lage geeft het losse, kabelslappe gevoel van een geparkeerd licht vliegtuig.

Meer: een stevigere stick geparkeerd en tijdens taxiën.

Minder: een slappe stick geparkeerd die pas met snelheid ontwaakt.

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

Spring engagement start20 kt

De snelheid waarbij de veer vanaf zijn lage-snelheidsvloer richting volle sterkte begint te klimmen: de besturing die 'tot leven komt' tijdens de startrol.

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

Spring engagement full90 kt

De snelheid waarbij de veer volle sterkte bereikt. Tussen het begin en dit punt wordt het centreren geleidelijk steviger naarmate de luchtstroom over de roeren groeit.

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

Snelheid voor krachtafstemming275

De aangewezen snelheid waarbij de aerodynamische belasting haar ontworpen volle niveau bereikt. Hij verankert de hele belastingscurve aan het echte snelheidsbereik van het vliegtuig: een 172 laadt op tegen 110 knopen, een jet veel later.

Meer: belastingen komen later; de stick blijft langer licht.

Minder: belastingen komen eerder en de kruisvlucht weegt zwaarder.

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

Centre firmness vs speed0%

Hoeveel het centreren zelf met snelheid verstijft, bovenop de uitslagbelastingen. Nul houdt het middengevoel constant; meer laat de stick harder centreren op kruissnelheid en losser in het circuit.

Meer: een midden dat duidelijk verhardt met snelheid.

Minder: een constant middengevoel op elke snelheid.

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

Centre stiffening cap5

De bovengrens van snelheidsgedreven centreerverstijving, zodat zeer snelle vlucht de veer niet onbegrensd kan opwinden.

Meer: meer totale verstijving toegestaan op hoge snelheid.

Minder: de verstijving stopt eerder.

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

Aileron load100%

De aangehouden rolbelasting uit rolroeruitslag en snelheid, onafhankelijk van pitch gebalanceerd. Samen met de hoogteroerbelasting bepaalt dit de stuurharmonie waar recensenten het over hebben.

Meer: zwaardere rolkrachten.

Minder: lichtere, levendigere rolroeren.

Waarom hier: 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%

De aangehouden pitchbelasting uit hoogteroeruitslag en snelheid, onafhankelijk van rol gebalanceerd. Dit is de hoofdhendel achter het pitchgewicht van een type. Hij raakt rolroer-, veer-, trim- of buffetkrachten niet.

Meer: zwaardere aangehouden pitchkrachten op snelheid.

Minder: een lichter hoogteroer, minder spierkracht om vast te houden.

Waarom hier: Scales pitch aerodynamic loading; pitch spring travel and trim responses are separate settings.

Max output force55%

Een plafond op elke gestage pitch- of rolkracht voordat die het apparaat bereikt, ter bescherming tegen beuken of verzadigen van de hardware bij stevige manoeuvres.

Meer: hogere gestage krachtpieken vóór afkapping.

Minder: een zachter plafond; harde manoeuvres vlakken eerder af.

Waarom hier: Caps directed-force output. Native spring effects and device limits remain separate.

Trim

Trim relief (elevator)0%

Hoe sterk hoogteroertrim de vastgehouden pitchkracht verlicht en verschuift waar de stick tot rust komt. Op 100 % heeft een goed getrimd vliegtuig geen vastgehouden druk nodig, de trim-de-last-weg-werkwijze van echt vliegen.

Meer: trim neemt meer vastgehouden kracht weg; op 100 % heft volle trim hem op.

Minder: je blijft kracht houden, zelfs getrimd.

Waarom hier: 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%

Dezelfde verlichting voor roltrim. De meeste GA-types hebben geen echte rolroertrim, dus dit blijft op nul; types met roltrim krijgen een passende waarde.

Meer: roltrim neemt meer vastgehouden kracht weg.

Minder: roltrim doet minder.

Waarom hier: Scales supported roll-trim relief and permitted centre movement. Zero removes roll response.

Effect gains · Ground

Runway rumble0%

Rollende oppervlaktetrilling uit wielsnelheid en ondergrondtype: asfalt, gras of grind onder het onderstel.

Meer: een sterkere oppervlaktetextuur in de stick.

Minder: gladder taxiën.

Waarom hier: Sets rolling texture strength, modified by speed, surface and undercarriage configuration.

Gear bumps0%

Korte losse stoten van uitzetvoegen, sporen en ruw oppervlak, die het doorlopende gerommel accentueren.

Meer: scherpere stoten van voegen en sporen.

Minder: zachtere gronddetails.

Waarom hier: Sets gear-bump texture during ground motion, separate from touchdown impact.

Effect gains · Airframe

Stall buffet6%

Casco-schudden bij het naderen van de overtrek en terwijl de overtrekwaarschuwing actief is: hoe luid deze vleugel aankondigt dat hij ontevreden is. Types met een scherpe afbreek krijgen bescheiden buffet en laten de hoorn de waarschuwing dragen.

Meer: een sterker trillen vóór de overtrek.

Minder: een discretere vleugel; de hoorn draagt de waarschuwing.

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

Mach buffet6%

Transsoon buffet bij het naderen van de Machlimiet. Betekenisvol voor jets nabij MMO, nul voor zuigers en turboprops die er nooit komen.

Meer: een sterker transsoon buffet nabij de Machlimiet.

Minder: gladder vliegen op hoge Mach.

Waarom hier: Sets high-Mach buffet strength; onset and full-strength thresholds are separate.

Flap buffet0%

Laagfrequente casco-trilling met kleppen uitgeslagen in de luchtstroom, in het snelheidsvenster waar ze de lucht echt bewerken.

Meer: ruwer vliegen met werkende kleppen.

Minder: zachtere naderingskleppen.

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

Gear buffet0%

Casco-getrommel van intrekbaar onderstel dat in de luchtstroom hangt. Nul voor types met vast onderstel, waar het casco nooit van vorm verandert.

Meer: meer getrommel met het onderstel uit.

Minder: schoner vliegen met onderstel uit.

Waarom hier: Sets gear aerodynamic buffet; movement and ground-contact cues are separate.

Stick shaker50%

De speciale stall-stickshakerzoem, geactiveerd door het eigen overtrekwaarschuwingssysteem van het vliegtuig. Alleen types met een echte shaker krijgen een waarde; de rest steunt op aerodynamisch buffet en de hoorn.

Meer: een hardere shaker.

Minder: een discretere shaker.

Waarom hier: Sets triggered shaker strength; inactive while the shaker feature is disabled.

Effect gains · Engine, mechanical & drag

Touchdown thump0%

De eenmalige dreun als de wielen de baan raken, geschaald op daalsnelheid: een zachte landing fluistert, een stevige aankomst bonkt.

Meer: een hardere dreun bij de landing.

Minder: zachtere aankomsten.

Waarom hier: Sets landing-impact strength; landing telemetry and response shape determine the pulse.

Reverse rumble0%

Uitroltrilling terwijl reverse thrust of props in beta werken. Nul voor types zonder reverse.

Meer: ruwer uitrollen onder reverse.

Minder: een discretere reverse.

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

Engine rumble0%

Doorlopende motortrilling die het toerental volgt tussen stationair en vol vermogen, de altijd aanwezige herinnering dat er voorin iets brandstof verbrandt.

Meer: meer motor in de stick.

Minder: een discretere motor.

Waarom hier: Sets estimated engine vibration using configured telemetry and response, not measured cockpit vibration.

Flap motion0%

Doorlopende trilling alleen terwijl de sim meldt dat de klepvlakken daadwerkelijk bewegen. Volgt echte actuatorbeweging en storingen, geen geschatte timer.

Meer: meer trilling met bewegende kleppen.

Minder: discretere klepbewegingen.

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

Autopilot follow

AP follow authority5%

Hoe ver autopilootcommando's de stick fysiek mogen bewegen. Piepklein gehouden in MSFS, waar een bewogen as kan worden teruggelezen als pilooteninvoer; nul schakelt volgen volledig uit.

Meer: de autopiloot beweegt je stick zichtbaar meer.

Minder: een nauwelijks merkbaar volgen.

Waarom hier: 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.

Waarom hier: Applies the configured pitch and roll spring travel curves.

SpringResponse · Output1

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

SpringResponse · Output0.3

Waarom hier: 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.

Waarom hier: 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.

Waarom hier: 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.

Waarom hier: 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.

Waarom hier: 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.

Waarom hier: Enables rate damping with the configured coefficients and control law.

Autopilot

Autopilot · Follow enabledFalse

Whether this feature is active in this profile.

Waarom hier: 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.

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

Autopilot · Neutral hold strength0.28

Waarom hier: Sets admitted AP neutral-hold strength; inactive while neutral hold is disabled.

Aero

Aero · EnabledTrue

Whether this feature is active in this profile.

Waarom hier: 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).

Meer: a more gradual build to a later peak.

Minder: a quicker build.

Waarom hier: 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.

Meer: the effect begins later.

Minder: it begins earlier.

Waarom hier: 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.

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

Ground

Ground · EnabledFalse

Whether this feature is active in this profile.

Waarom hier: 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.

Waarom hier: Enables engine cues with nonzero settings and valid running-engine telemetry.

Mechanical

Mechanical · EnabledTrue

Whether this feature is active in this profile.

Waarom hier: Enables accessory cues with configured strengths and observed accessory movement.

Mechanical · Gain0

The strength of this effect.

Meer: a stronger effect.

Minder: a weaker one.

Waarom hier: Sets texture from observed gear movement, separate from aerodynamic and touchdown effects.
