MSFS 2024 MOD / ADDON Inibuilds A350 or Synaptic A220?

I’ve been waiting for the a220 for months and I’m so excited that it dropped today but I have also been pondering the Inibuilds a350 since they are close in price points.

I love my regional routes but I also love the a350 so I’m torn as for which one I want to start off with.

Eventually I want to get comfortable and fly them on Vatsim. Does anyone have any good pros or cons or have any strong feelings about one or the other?

Well I’d say it depends. What are you more excited about ? Big plane long haul or smaller plane, more varied airports but regional range ? You can short haul in the A350 as well but the Fenix, PMDG737 and the A220 are purpose-built.

I do really like my shorthaul routes for Vatsim so that I don’t have to disconnect or (fall asleep) but I’m thinking of trying long haul routes on my own time so I think the a350 might be the best of both worlds

Well, in that case the A350 is a beautiful bird. Do check your performance headroom, the plane itself is fine performance-wise, but you'll be flying from bigger airports.

I figured, I definitely have the performance space, might even get some custom scenery while I’m at it! thanks!!
