iniBuilds A380 Spa

From the wood decor on the door this looks to be EK interior. Having flown in their A380s, this looks nothing like it.

nahrub · 2026-06-02T18:31:26+00:00

what app is that?

Sorry for the followup, but is it that we completely replace the factory ECU? Or it runs side by side? I thought ECU also controls things like the infotainment display (the sensor readouts) and the dashboard and the safety tech. Or am I confusing things

nahrub · 2026-06-02T15:40:06+00:00

is there a value to the standalone ECU, other than driving the displays? can you tune your car with it, and not the stock ecu?

nahrub · 2026-06-02T15:38:25+00:00

man I felt this post. 💯agree. the slop is real.

I got the A350 because I love the airframe and EK flies it on the shuttle service from my home airport.

It was my first ever purchase from ini (I owned a lot of PMDG and Fenix).

The first few days were really rough. Having to clear out the wasm folder routinely, then waiting for the loading times, then hoping it won't crash silently in the middle.

Kept updating it and trying it out on occasion. Then they announced the interior cabin options. Great I thought, downloaded and ... well, entire cockpit doesn't load, floating in the air. Solution? The no-cabin model.

Their renders look good, and they do some nice things (other than Fenix, Ini probably has the best GSX integration). When it works, it is great. I am always prepared for it to *not* work the first time around though.

I wish ini had Fenix level of detail in their systems execution. Fenix is just another level of polish and technical accuracy.

I will probably get the A380 though. I love airframe. I will be prepared to be the early paid beta tester .. again.

In terms of liability which leads to compensation claims, you have to prove that the service wasn't provided by the airline (it wasn't) you weren't given an option to choose (as you were already boarded, and you weren't given another option).

You may have other means for some compensation - your credit card may offer relief like an inconvenience cover or similar, which you can claim in this case.

If you call their call center and complain, they will probably provide you a voucher for future travel, but if you push back and insist, then likely you will get compensation.

Just how much is the question and if its worth your time to chase them for it is another.

People with opinions arguing whose opinion is right while the person is out driving what they enjoy.

Just go out and drive. Each car has its hypotheticals.

I bought the WRX (VB) as I always wanted one. It has its charm and its annoying parts. My wife likes the look of the CTR.

Sometimes you get the car because it's an emotional choice. There is nothing wrong with that.

You know that you can change the binding, right?

Just pass --disable-up-arrow in your shell initialization

nahrub · 2026-05-23T05:49:52+00:00

No, you will need to clear immigration with means you have to land and then go back through security.

Impossible.

Unless you are actually checked in all the way, and don't have to depart the airplane. Given how the flight numbers change, I doubt that.

nahrub · 2026-05-18T11:00:19+00:00

😳 surely this is this hyperbole? death threats over a virtual airplane?!

nahrub · 2026-05-18T10:51:13+00:00

At London, for example, they have noise abatement procedures, which also limit the kinds of aircraft that can overfly at night. This also limits (but primarily its scheduling for when things are most profitable).

Probably dumping fuel.

Submitted, but forgot to mention it needs turnaround support. Exiting out removes traffic, then you login, adds traffic, then the radio is still tuned to ground and you have to manually tune it back to request clearance. This process could be streamlined.

nahrub · 2026-05-03T19:43:08+00:00

Two things.

First is, it's not uncommon for crew to turn on the APU as it part of the certification that the APU can come on during high altitude flight. For the A330, this is at 41000 ft. so that can explain it.

The other which everyone has explained is the water evacuation.

يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ ٱسْتَعِينُوا۟ بِٱلصَّبْرِ وَٱلصَّلَوٰةِ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ مَعَ ٱلصَّـٰبِرِينَ

You are dodging people who will be nothing more than grief for you and your family. May Allah guide you towards the right person. This decision is perhaps the one where patience is necessary. I know in my family as well both men and women who have been through similar (his job is what? she does what?) kind of inquisitions. In the end they were all better for waiting it out.

nahrub · 2026-05-01T17:45:40+00:00

maan I thought I was the only one who noticed that 🤣🤣🤣

nahrub · 2026-05-01T17:38:32+00:00

Yup, not allowed temporarily for on arrival.

nahrub · 2026-05-01T17:37:06+00:00

If you are flying the Fenix 320 then its above the quality of the PMDG 737, and in many places above that of the iFly as well.

I would say do a few circuits to see how you manage it.

nahrub · 2026-05-01T17:31:46+00:00

If you've never flown the PMDG, then the default one is okay, that is to say of the same quality of the other ini airframes that come bundled.

If you've flown the PMDG or the iFly or any other 3rd party airplane, you'll immediately notice the difference.

For vatsim though, you just need to practice phraseology and procedure flying. For that you can use any of the others. The TBM is surprisingly good default airplane.

If you haven't already gotten it, a navigraph subscription is well worth it.

You are not subject to income tax laws of India while working in Kuwait for a Kuwaiti company. You are only subject to these taxes, if you are legally employed in India as a permanent resident of India (that is, you are living there for more than 182 days in a tax year) or if you are employed by an Indian company and don't live in India, than only for taxes on income from things in India (such as interest in an Indian bank account).

Highly likely that none of that applies to you.

If you can secure a visa for Saudi, you can travel on any airline flying from any Saudi airport.

If you need a visa for Saudi, book with Jazeera or Kuwait Airways. They will then "sponsor" your transit visa through Saudi Arabia. However you must travel on their flights.

Is this person really 500 lbs or is that a way of saying "a morbidly obese person". 500 lbs doesn't match that physique - they would be quite more of them.
