Posky (usually) have a thing about making the planes 'empty weight' the weight plus pax, so if flies as if it is loaded

solution

find on net (or if someone posts) the empty weight of the plane, and then edit the cfg file with the correct weight

[Covoxer]

You have to set empty weight to 265000lb. Now it is wrongly set to 343242lb.
Find second number in aircraft.cfg and replace it with the first.

A330-200 - Operating empty 120,150kg
A330-300 - Operating empty 121,870kg

which works out around the same as John posted above

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Download and install the FS2004 update. Based upon what I'm seeing there, I think you're loading on FS2002 payload points.

And yes, everyone above me here is right, POSKY notoriously has points that don't line up well, but I have both the -200 and -300 variants
from them with 2004 loadouts and they are fine.

In fact, I think their 330 is the only aircraft that is CLOSE to cruising with a nose-down attitude like they should.
