M$ seem to be gradually losing their fear of making the default 737 actually look like a 737 :dance:

I think this must be a late April fool though - there's an Airbus A321!

I'm rather looking forward to the new sim. I think it at least looks better than the predecessors!

I wondered if that would ever happen (An Airbus as standard in FS). I wonder what caused them to choose the A321 though? Top marks to MS for realising they might sell a few more copies outside of Europe by including some non-US planes. I know an Airbus will leave a lot of the members here stone cold but I think the general FS flying population - especially those who arent aware of freeware addons - will be quite pleased.

Remember, all images shown so far are of BETA builds and no way a finalized look, not only that, but we're talking about DX9 versus DX10 (which they don't have yet).

Look at FS9 then look at that. Yes it looks slightly different but we are 3 years down the line since FS9 was released.
I shall repeat it.....
Textures look similar.
Colours are exactly the same.
Default aircraft still look wrong.
Beta or not, it won't drastically change between now and it's release.
DX9/DX10..... so why make the game an all rounder for low, mid and high end PC's if you are going to have to purchase a new graphics card to get the full potential from the game? If I've got to buy a new card why not just make the minumum game requirements higher like a lot of other games on the market?
