[LucaM]

Topic title: ICAO code
A21NY

Aircraft Model (Name & Manufacturer)
A321XLR by Airbus

Aircraft Category
C

Purpose or Role in Game
C class narrow-body that could be used on routes such as IAD - GRU, NGO - SYD or BKK - SYD, bringing many new possibilites for player-to-player connections

Why should this aircraft be added?
The same way it is thought to revolutionize long-haul narrow-body market in the real life - making new routes possible or increasing frequency on existing ones, supplementing wide-bodies - I think it would also (to an extent) revolutionize WoA gameplay, with many new possible connections using C class aircraft.

Airlines that use it
Aer Lingus, Iberia, Wizz Air (1st with Pratt & Whitney engines), Qantas
Orders by many more, including IndiGo, American Airlines, United Airlines…

Special characteristics or variants
Longer range than any other narrow-body (AFAIK), up to astonishing 4700 nm (8700 km)
MTOW 101 t (up from 93,5 t in basic A321neo)
Fuel capacity 39 511 litres (up from 23 940 litres in A21N)

Definitely need this in the game, especially as more airlines are getting theirs now.

From WoA’s official Instagram:

The fuel tank should be longer

In the preview it stops right at the beginning of the emergency exit but in reality it stops at the other side of the door in the direction of the tail

I hope they take this into consideration

Seen both UK registered Wizz XLRs IRL!

I think it’s the angle

If you look closely you will see it’s quite long and the end is like it should be

[DHC8]

It’s not

It’s the same length as the NX, just shaped differently

for the NY it’s supposed to be around where the blue line is

From WoA’s official Instagram:

Great to see they finally adding the XLR, hopefully they give its 4,700nmi range and not less like they did with the A321LR. So when it due
