Discussion thread for the upcoming A220; developments and updates, like the one shared from the Fenix [A319, A320, A321] Fenix High-Fidelity Aircraft thread.
Really excited for this aircraft.
I hope there isn’t any input from inbuilds systems wise or with sounds and they just help with modelling. Could be an awesome aircraft if so.
When I was boarding a plane IRL the other day, I saw a plane taxiing that I could not identify…now I know from the unique cockpit window shape that it was an A220. ![]()
Nice to see a developer update. I had forgotten that they were working on this and I figured the project got binned. From what I see so far, it’s looking quite good.
Yep. A low wing dash 8. Lol
I can’t wait for this one. AirBaltic here I come!
It was initially built by Bombardier as the CS100. I remember watching a Youtube video years ago posted by an Air Baltic captain on this aircraft before Airbus took over.
I still call this a C Series, due to sheer home team favouritism for Embraer. I’ve flown on one and it was very comfortable, hoping that this is a good rendition!
CS300 if we are talking about airBaltic. CS100 is the smaller variant (now A220-100 and A220-300). Funny enough, the ICAO designator is still BCS1 and BCS3, and in the type certificate BD500 is used. Lots of different names for the same plane.
I feel like I’ve been waiting forever for this one.
Day one purchase! Definitely getting this over the e175!
Especially since the autopilot doesnt function in the e series for fs2024
I haven’t gotten into airliners much. I own the F28 Professional, and I’m eagerly awaiting the Bluebird 757 (my all-time favorite airliner…)
I think this A220 just made my short list. Thanks for the update.
I wonder what kind of cabin this will have and whether they will do an ACJ 220 variant. Overall looks very attractive.
For those of you that don’t follow Discord. Their latest update..
It’s the announcement you’ve all been waiting for: it’s time for another development live stream, which we will be hosting on 06 June 2025 19:30 (in your local timezone)!

I hope it wonr be a dissapointment. There is already another a220 out there, but it is pretty bad… But because of inibuilds I have really high hopes on this one!
