An hour or so and a few manually flown patterns ... NOT qual'd on the A220, but a current 320 driver. Opinion ... the A220 is WORLD's better in control feel compared to the A320 and much better than the 321. At least in the sim, the airplane responds in a very predictable and natural responsive way. Like a 757 or a F33 Bonanza sort of harmonized way than the 320 which is clunky and a bit unpredictable in winds. The A220 (my guess) has much finer control gradients and just feels natural.Originally Posted by David Puddy
Anyone checked out the simulator yet? What do you think about it? Would be curious to hear from current Airbus sidestickers in terms of general feel, etc as well. Any initial sim-based impressions?
Of course, that's with barely above zero experience in the thing. My friend who has just a few hours towards his private rating was getting good landings right in the touchdown area.
