Stow your duty free overhead, cross check and doors to automatic. Oh, and make sure you've got a runway at least two and a half miles long in front of you because First Class Simulations is proud to announce that their Airbus A380 on PC CD will be taking off and landing on a shelf in your High Street on May 6th. Developed by Abacus in the US, with A380 there's no hanging around until the summer of 2006 in order to get your face into the world's first twin- deck, four-aisle airliner which will carry 555 passengers. With the PC version, you'll be able to sit in the cockpit and take control without getting an over-zealous copper sticking a semi-automatic machine gun into the small of your back.

Features include:

  • Exquisite Visual Exterior

  • Twelve liveries of launch airliners

  • Complete 3D virtual cockpit and interior

  • Specialised instrumentation supports simplifying long-haul navigation

  • Enhanced scenery of the Toulouse Airport area

  • Customised AI traffic in the Toulouse Airport area

  • A380 Pilots Guide (PDF)

A380 will be available from May 6th 2005.
