This A330 will not work if you have the A320 FBW mod installed.

This patch fixed the blurry windows from the A330 Version 0.1. This will be the LAST ping to everyone about the A330, so if you want to get notified about patches, be sure to go to #welcome and pick up roles.

Awesome! I've been waiting for a usable long-haul option in MSFS (since the B787 is practical unflyable in the landing configuration).

roject Mega Pack A330-300 Version 0.2 Patch Has Been Released!

Download Version 0.2.0: https://aircraft.projectmegapack.com/A330Version0.2.zip

Changes...
-Undid flaps workaround, as MSFS 2020 updated (flaps were previously double lift, so we halved them, this is now fixed)
-Added proper ICAO designations in aircraft cfg. Live traffic will now use the proper aircraft model.
-Fixed model being invisible in multiplayer
-Fixed gear animation bug (failures should work properly now)

Thanks!

Done 3 flights so far. I get there well enough but there is some speed management to do on descent and climb and sometimes on initial cruise depending on your weight. Last nights flight I had to manually set mach speed until I lost some weight to avoid overspeed.

Does it have Simbrief integration? Like importing flight plans?

It does not. I basically create the simbrief plan and load into MSFS. Then put myself at a gate. Now I haven't tested their MCDU to see if I can put in the runway after I started the flight. If you put in the runway in MSFS it changes the Simbrief plan so I need to test that.
