United Airlines A321XLR (N64321) Cockpit Reference Photos

1st Official Post

    Hi IPACS Team and community,I have gathered some high-quality, real-life cockpit photos of United Airlines' new Airbus A321XLR (Registration: N64321).One important detail for the developers: United Airlines did NOTopt for the Brake Fan (BRK FAN) feature on their A321XLR fleet. In the photos, you can clearly see a blanking plate located to the upper right of the Autobrake panel, right where the BRK FAN button usually is.I hope these real-world references help you fine-tune the cockpit texture and details for Aerofly FS!(Please check the attached photos below)

    Thanks for the images, I hope we can add this livery at some point.

    Regarding the brake fan switch: We're not chasing for more work and try and find out every airline option for each specific livery that we make. This would keep us busy for years without any gain for the average customer. We already prepared all the variant specific differences between the A319ceo, A320ceo, A320neo, A321ceo, A321neo and A321XLR which was a lot of work. At least some parts like the front panel and pedestal are shared among all neo variants now. The overhead has so many differences by now it's difficult to fix something if we find a mistake. But if we start making even more versions from that it's just going to get even messier and will cost us a tremendous amount of time just to export every variant correctly in case something needs changing in the model. We'd rather invest this development time into something new.
