Through a post at their Facebook page, ToLiss, a well-known X-Plane aircraft developer, has announced two new bigger updates to come to their renditions of an Airbus A319 and an Airbus A321.

At the beginning of the post made by the developers, the community was reassured that the development of the Airbus A340-600 rendition is still progressing, and despite the team’s focus on the project, features and bug fixes are still being introduced to existing aircraft.

Bringing the A319 to v1.6, the new version is expected to feature a completely reworked performance pages in the MCDU, improved performance calculator, or added 3D model of the external Ram Air Turbine.
