I have begun to work in a new version of the A340-600. What I would like to do is:
- To develop a model based on Liam's great A340-600, which will be able to use the existing liveries.
- To introduce some of the missing things: flaps, airbrake, reversers, trim and other moving surfaces. And, of course, to introduce a more developed cockpit.
I have chosen the name A340-600HGW, because it is an actual version of the 340, which was developed by Airbus, although not many units where done. It had new engines, more efficient, and that will haver this FG model too. I hope not to collide with other efforts, and to have a download soon.

- Mouse wheel: change the value (Hdg, VS, Alt, Hold, Speed, etc.)
- Mouse left click: select the function to activate it: (Alt, Hold Alt, Hdg, Loc, App, VS, Throttle, etc.)
That is all !!!
Last communication (Nov, the 11th 2015: By this communication I would like to let you know, that I am no longer able to continue developing the Airbus A340-600HGW, the A340-313X, the Boeing 707-320 and the MD-81, MD-82, and MD-83.
These models can still be downloaded from the website (
https://andinogonthaeler.wordpress.com/), but they will not be developed further by me in a systematic way. If I occasionally do something new, I will let you know in the forum and in the blog, but not much work should be expected.
Due to personal reasons, I have not the time needed to work any more on these planes. And the pace of new FG versions is too quick for me to be able to do the necessary adjustments to each version.
As far as I know, models A340-600HGW, A340-313X and B-707-320 are completely under the GPL license. The MD's are under the Creative Commons license, as they are derived from the original MD-81, which was under the Creative Commons license. More is explained under each plane. Feel free to continue the work on these models.
Thank you for your support and interest so far.
