The A330-900neo is a wide-body jet airliner manufactured by Airbus.
It is an evolution of the popular A330-300 with new improved wings and modern high bypass engines (Rolls-Royce Trent 7000) for better fuel efficiency.
The first A330-900neo entered service on December 15 2018 with launch partner airline TAP Portugal, it can carry up to 287 passenger with a range of 13300 km.
👓 Installation
simply drop headwind-a330neo_0.93 into your Community Folder.
This Add-on works independently from the FlyByWire A32NX. You do not need a particular copy of the FBW A32NX in your Community folder.
→ Chokes and plots are visible when Beacon switch is OFF, engines is OFF and parking break switch is ON
→ This is a beta version, please read below !
→ You don't need any FBW A320 installed. This is standalone.

✈️ About the project
This project was originally started by Philippe Marion (FSX conversion) before being completely re-worked from the ground up by Headwind, to make it fully compatible for MSFS.
This is the result of months of work, including:
- Brand new exterior 3D model.
- Brand new 3D model animations (Wings, Gears, Flaps, ..)
- Brand new MSFS effects (Engine heat, Contrails, Lights, Rain, Dust, ..)
- New Flight Dynamics.
- New 4K textures with PBR.
- Complete integration of the FBW A32NX Virtual Cockpit (version 0.6.2)
- Added A330 specific features to the VC.
- Complete integration of services and systems, according to MSFS SDK Guidelines.
🚧 Work In Progress
The next phase of the project is:
- Include a complete re-design of the main wings with more realistic flex.
- Implement the version 0.7 of FBW
- Fix the issues
If you wish to contribute to the project, do not hesitate to contact me.
🎨 Liveries / Painkit
This initial version contains 8 real world liveries in 4K PBR:
- - Airbus House “Foundation 10 years”
- TAP Portugal (Portugal)
- Star Alliance TAP Portugal (Portugal)
- Hifly (Portugal)
- Condor (delivery in 2022) (Germany)
- Air Belgium (Belgium)
- Corsair International (France)
- Delta (USA)
→ A paintkit is provided here : https://fr.flightsim.to/file/21285/a330-900-neo-paintkit
→ More than 100 repaint are avalaibles here : https://flightsim.to/c/liveries/airbus-a330-900/
🐛 Known issues
- The fuselage disappears in close external view. This is due to the blending between the FBW A32NX VC and the new exterior 3D model, not quite fitting together.
- FBW VC uses the older 0.6.2 version instead of the latest v0.7.0: Implementation will come at a later date has this is quite a complicated update at this time.
- Baggage loader does not reach the cargo door as expected : this is an MSFS limitation.
- Jetway does not connect correctly to the door : this appears to be an SU5 related issue.
- The tire pressure gauge shows 0 (zero) : This should be resolved when FBW 0.7.0 VC is implemented later.
- impossible to set the V1/VR/V2 in FMC : just reload the flight

I all,
The promised update are avalaible.
Please note this is a small update, mainly for fixing the last MSFS hotfix. I work on a lot of stuff (like native wingflex, fixing the systems) which need more time.
0.94 - changelog :
-> Please do not forget to remove the previous A330neo in your community.
-> Next update will be more consistent : After weeks of studying with others dev (Thanks to Madolo and Qbit), we think we have found how to implemente the native wingflex ! At this day only default aircrafts get the native wingflex.

Hi there,
I don’t know if somebody has already asked this question, but I can not seem to get the WX radar to work. Can somebody help me with this?
lexandro 57 minute(s) ago
Game bug. Not mod related. No workaround.
Wiremu
Thanks very much for this, I think it is cool. Is it possible to calibrate thrust lever from Flypad? I cant figure it out
prosunite
the display screens on the aircraft dont work properly
727jock
Your throttles don't work properly. Remove Aircraft until its fixed. Stop putting on things that don't work properly.

No need to be rude. This is freeware that countless hours have been spent on, and continue to be spent. If you don't like it, don't download it.
XTerrratazeX 13 hour(s) ago
you try to make an aircraft first and realise how hard it is and then come back and chat shit. hes put a lot of work into this plane for free
lexandro 55 minute(s) ago
Learn how to read. The throttles in game are broken for multiple 3rd party aircraft because the game is bugged. There is already a work around for the bug Asobo caused with shoddy coding. Stop posting garbage that has no basis in fact.

Do you guys got a discord? Any idea when the plane turning on the ground will be fixed?
Noah_C
Amazing mod, I would definitely recommend it. Two things i would like solving / fixing is that the flypad settings don't work and only lets me change the settings on the right like the brightness. And the second is that the cockpit duplicates itself for some reason (doesn't do it on any other plane).
Other than that its an amazing mod and as you can see from the downloads i would definitely recommend it.
AntCar 1 day(s) ago
I don't have the cockpit glitch and it seems it has been fixed on the last update by looking at the changelog, did you update it?
Noah_C 16 hour(s) ago
Yes I did reinstall it. However seen as you say it works I will reinstall it and see if that works. Thanks
MarvinOK
I downloaded it a few times, but the displays won't go on.
Somebody know what to do?
transal1
when I go in the cockpit cold and dark, the 2 batteries are at 0 level...so impossible to to start
do you have an advice ?
nxt
few issues ive spotted. the shadows from cockpit view are not working. Also the GPWS callouts seem as if theyre responding to the height of the A32NX in relation to the cockpit. Not major. Im sure both can be fixed.
Travelographer
Will there ever be wing views from the interior implemented? I really like this plane but having a floating flight deck without a visible fuselage makes it much less immersive.
JaCrispy90
Love this aircraft, such great work done. Cannot wait for FBW 0.74 implementation so we can set detents etc via the FlyPad.
Keep up the great work.
TheAdam
thanks for your excellent contributions...since last update, however, it's not anymore flyable...do you have plans for a revision...?!
thanks again and best regards,
Thomas
dkline.simgaming
Great aircraft - thank you for spending the time updating and creating it.
The only issue i seem to have is when i click on the MCDU and to the AOC menu i get a CTD every time - is this something that has been noted before?
fornaxg
Before the update i just flew the plane but now the throttles are not calibrated and I can't make them to work. Any help?
nxt 2 day(s) ago
throttle axis 1 (100-0%) and throttle axis 2 (100 - 0%)
Barroso 2 day(s) ago
Same to me, i just deleted the file and downloaded again and it's fix, so maybe there is some errors between files
shutupidontcare
Since the A330 update, my game crashes almost every flight. Anyone else experiencing this?
victoroos
First of all, great,
Taxi etc you alredy know. But is there a way to remove the HUD for wingview etc?
The FBW has it and it helps a lot with immersion. I looked at the camera.cg but can't find it.
evgeniy1983
дисплеи не включаются! как решить проблему?
budguy21
Doesnt work with newest Sim Update. CTD every time. Only aircraft that CTD.
cptautoland
Great work first of all!
But I have this error and not sure if alone. After some time (and not always), when in the cockpit view, an overlay image of another airbus cockpit seems to appear. The error goes away after I move to outside view and back but is a bit irritating. Not sure how to fix thought... (PS: I have no other Airbus addons other than the FBW Dev Build installed).

Any idea?
Also, it seems latest version is to really difficult to taxi. Wheel turns max but plane does not...
headwind 4 day(s) ago
I haven't a solution for that for now, this is an issue from the SU5.
hassi1on1 4 day(s) ago
Ive been having that exact same problem
Have you found a solution to it yet?
Brayden_McNeal 3 day(s) ago
I have the same issue, hopefully it will be fixed next update. Pretty much makes it unflyable.
lexandro 3 day(s) ago
This was already fixed. If its still happening you didnt delete the older version before updating. So old files are still broken.
Shoebillstonk
for now, I will be waiting for an update to the systems that enables seperate tiller steering, but my main problem is that It does not work well with my Thrustmaster Quadrant, it can be frustrating
