Fenix Simulations A320 Installer en update naar v2.2.0.232

De ontwikkelaars van Fenix Simulations hebben zojuist weer een nieuwe blog geschreven en een update uitgebracht voor de A320.

Allereerst is er nu een installer gemaakt. Dit moet het installatie- en updateproces vereenvoudigen, ook rekening houdend met de aankomende A319 en A321 uitbreiding. Hieronder een screenshot:

Na het installeren van de installer kun je de A320 meteen bijwerken. Het changelog:
