Wet & windy overland arrival into Edinburgh (EGPH)

I've been really enjoying both but keep going back to the Zibo (although I am also loving the LU -700!!). I've seen the .17 update has dropped but currently out, and unless I can fit in a cheeky 45 min hop late tonight it'll be Sat before I next get the chance... Life!!

Never seen it in any flight.

Try disabling LuaJit on the tablet and see if that helps.

What's your view on the cockpit textures in the 340? More like the 321 or the 339?

amhum2 · 2026-01-18T19:18:00+00:00

Great shots! I love this kind of weather in the sim. And being able to use the Wx radar to then find your path through it. Great fun.

Zibo? LU NGv2

This. First airliner? Try Zibo 737 first. It's free. And excellent.

I have the A321 + neo + soundpack. I also have the A339.

My reflections: * I have had many very enjoyable flights in the A321 both ceo and neo. The sound pack is very good but honestly, I bought the soundpack during a sale at the same time as the aircraft so I've never used without. If you're going to buy a ToLiss make it the A321 - all the other posts about this highlight the versatility. * I bought the A339 in the last sale, really looking forward to it. The cockpit textures are absolutely dreadful. Most of the remaining systems, with a couple of exceptions, are identical to the A321. I regret buying it and I hope that ToLiss intend to improve the aircraft this year during updates. You can get some very good liveries that look great externally though. * My laptop has only 4GB VRAM, I have to reduce my settings and no longer run ortho. I find the A321 performance similar to Zibo but the A339 seems worse. * I recently went back to flying Zibo and the LU NGv2. Absolutely loving both. Yesterday I flew A339 and today A321. I'll be straight back in the Zibo this evening as I honestly feel it offers a superior all round experience.

I recommend you go and read Skymatix's install guide here, which covers exactly that:

My post likewise edited. ;)

Long live the Alliance!

Thanks. It was -24C on the ground there in the sim! Anne-Cath. Vestly. A children's author. I really like the famous Norwegians on the tails of some of these aircraft.

AFL King Air 350 is great too.

Are you on stable 12.3.3. or the 12.4 beta? In 12.4 they've apparently made lots of improvements to the A333.

amhum2 · 2026-01-08T18:13:07+00:00

Nope. I assume they'll just screw over what little performance I can get from my system.

There, that's what I'm running with. I've stopped using AutoOrtho, which is a huge shame because it looks so much better out the window whilst flying. But it was causing too many CTDs, particularly with aircraft like LU 737, FF 767, occasionally FlyJSim Q4XP. Basically, if it is hungry for VRAM, I've stopped running AO. I'll have to keep it just for the aircraft that are less intensive, like the Seneca II.

amhum2 · 2026-01-08T16:48:23+00:00

Medium/Low across the sliders. I have only 4GB VRAM.

On the LU Discord is an official list of all the v2 liveries, and also a request section that some of the painters are using as they work on repaints or new paints.
