Its hard to say at this time. I haven't seen an aircraft list for FSX, but alot of simmers wanted Airbus aircraft in FS9, and Airbus are becoming more prominent now, so I would say it would be likely that Airbus does appear in FSX Wink

They might have Airbus but I know a few people who think otherwise.
They think that because it's an American program, microsoft will be a bit patriotic and use Boeing seen as they are in large competition with their European rival Airbus.

My guess is that they will have the 380 but stick mainly with Boeing like JVD said it's a local company for them. Boeing is so close to Redmond in the Seattle area.
Now the Russians will complain that MS didn't add an Antonov!

Something is telling me that at least one member of the Airbus family will be included in FSX. Yes

There's only the A321 on FSX but I'm sure some developpers will come up with some Airbus planes to download. Even thouh MS is trying to be Patriotic by empasizing on Boeing, I still think Airbus is a better company and more technologically advanced planes, so they should have a bigger spot in flight simulators.
