In their first development update of the year, the team at iniSimulations have taken to their forums to provide users with another development update, which includes additional previews to the A310, the announcement of the Beluga, and an upcoming update to their Shoreham Airfield scenery.

iniSimulations A310-300

Firstly, some new information and previews were provided for the developer’s highly anticipated A310-300, which will contain both the passenger and freighter variants of the aircraft.

The developer confirmed that the A310 would be starting “beta testing in the next few months” with more information being announced once the aircraft gets closer to its initial release. It was also stated that “the scope of this project has been extended slightly to incorporate some new features that we hope will satisfy a certain demographic of users looking for that next level.”

A300 users can expect a 35% discount if they wish to purchase the A310 upon its release, while A310 owners will be subject to a 25% discount for the A300. 

A300 BelugaST ON THE LINE

The Beluga is truly a unique aircraft, especially with it being classified as a Super Transporter. iniBuilds is aware of  this, and they are including multitudes of features unique to the aircraft, with the developer stating, “we will be providing a fantastic, immersive experience with a few cargo options to be loaded, a custom loader, but also various cockpit modifications that we will showcase in the next update.”

Coming along with the release of the Beluga, iniBuilds has commissioned freeware developer “ZeroDollarPayware” to create Chester/Hawarden Airport (EGNR) to allow users to fly from one of Airbus’s main factories “in addition to the fictional rotations one can do with this aircraft.”

It was also confirmed that the famous aircraft will be entering its beta stage in the coming weeks and will be available before the A310. Previous owners of the A300 are subject to a 15% discount for the Beluga; however, users do not need to own the A300 to purchase the Super Transporter.

The Beluga is the first of the promised expansions coming to the A310 and A300 which was revealed in the developer’s previous development update.

EGKA Shoreham Airfield

Lastly, the iniBuilds team confirmed an update would be coming to their Shoreham Field (EGKA) scenery in the coming weeks, with the update containing “numerous improvements and bug fixes.”
