A short but trending post on Facebook by ToLiss Simulation Solutions has confirmed the development of an Airbus A321 for X-Plane 11.

Said to be in a pre-release beta phase, the aircraft is to land in the simulator in early 2020.

An image accompanied the post, but no other information was provided.

Seen in the image above, the aircraft is an A321ceo with CFM-56 engines mounted on the wings, along with sharklets on the wingtips.

ToLiss confirmed in their Facebook group IAE engines are also implemented, whilst NEO and XLR variants are planned, but not confirmed at this moment in time.

Further information about the aircraft is expected soon, and Threshold will endeavour to keep you up-to-date.

The aircraft is part of the Airbus A320 family of aircraft, which recently became the best-selling aircraft family of all time.

A future variant, the Airbus A321XLR, has found many customers and orders since its announcement at the Paris Air Show earlier this year. On Wednesday, United Airlines placed a firm order for 50 of the aircraft.
