The Aerosoft A330 for Microsoft Flight Simulator is finally here. In this rough and raw first look, we go on a flight from the Dominican Republic (MDPP) to Puerto Rico (TJPS), but things don’t go as planned.
Despite a strong visual and audio experience, it is riddled with bugs that even cause us to have to go around to avoid disaster.
NOTE: A slightly more updated version of the plane was released but no changelog was provided to FSElite.
See why.
