AIRCRAFT BRIEF
The Airbus A380-800 is the world's largest passenger airliner, a full double-deck wide-body that first flew in 2005 and entered service in 2007. The FlyByWire A380X is a free, open-source community simulation of the A380 for Microsoft Flight Simulator, bringing a study-level FMGC/MCDU, custom fly-by-wire flight model, accurate ECAM and systems logic, and an integrated EFB with SimBrief connectivity. It carries roughly 500-550 passengers in a typical three-class layout on four turbofan engines.
