Combining the expertise of ToLiss and developers from Aerosoft, the A340-600 Pro has come to Microsoft Flight Simulator. Let’s take a look at this new airliner releases.

A second A340 joins the fray!

Following iniBuilds A340-300 release back in October of last year, Microsoft Flight Simulator now has a second A340 variant. Aerosoft and ToLiss have come together to offer the long fuselage A340-600 variant.

The aircraft boasts a custom flight model, detailed aircraft systems including three fully functional and independent MCDUs, an EFB with Navigraph and SimBrief support, over a dozen liveries and more.

ToLiss are well known in the X-Plane community offering a range of extremely detailed Airbus products from the A320 through the A340 and are jointly working on the A350 project for that simulator. One of the advantages that ToLiss brought to the effort with Aerosoft was the developer’s custom sim environment that sits outside of both X-Plane and Microsoft Flight Simulator. That has let them bring their X-Plane A340-600 into MSFS relatively rapidly. Meanwhile, ToLiss continue to develop for X-Plane and the developer remains committed to that platform.

Aerosoft’s reputation has been mixed with recent airliner project releases so it’s going to be interesting to see how this partnership pays off over the long run. Aircraft like these need updates over time and both Aerosoft and ToLiss will need to stay on top of this to make it competitive with Fenix, PMDG, Just Flight and iniBuilds among others.

The aircraft is currently listed at €58.82 (excluding VAT) and the price will go up to €67.22 later on. Get more information on the Aerosoft website.


One response to “Aerosoft and ToLiss release the A340-600 Pro on Microsoft Flight Simulator”

  1. It’s GREAT to see an accomplished X-Plane developer dive into MSFS so successfully!

    So far, the only serious complaints i’ve seen have been in relation to the (Aerosoft) graphics. The feedback on the systems & flight model has been extremely good!

    I can’t help but get the feeling that much of the angst over this addon is collateral damage from Aerosoft’s multiple previous lackluster projects for MSFS, culminating with the disastrous A330 flop.

    It’s a shame, because it’s negatively affecting the perception/reception of this addon, particularly since iniBuilds version has been pretty well received. And of course, their graphics are one of their strengths!

    I just recently got the XP version of the ToLiss A340 due to a fire sale half-off offer. While I don’t really love airliners, it’s obviously a very high quality addon. And I’ll add that it’s FPS vastly outperforms all of my other XP addons – it runs as fast as the Default SR22!

    I will add this one to The List, but because of the high price, I’m just going to have to wait for the christmas sale (as I did with the XP version). Too many other non-airliner addons out there that are far more aligned with my interests 😉
