Download Airbus A350 liveries for MSFS 2020, match each repaint to the correct aircraft and variant, and fix missing or pink textures.
You can download Airbus A350 liveries for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 through our free MSFS livery catalogue. Before downloading, check that each repaint names the exact A350 model and variant you own: an A350-900 livery made for one developer’s aircraft will not normally work with another developer’s package or an A350-1000.
Where should I look for A350 liveries?
Start in our Microsoft Flight Simulator freeware library and search for A350, the exact variant and, where known, the aircraft package name. Read the complete file description rather than choosing by airline or screenshot alone.
Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 does not include a stock Airbus A350, so a repaint cannot add the flyable aircraft by itself. If you have downloaded only texture files, check our explanation of getting the required A350 aircraft add-on before installing any liveries.
Which A350 livery version do I need?
The correct livery must match the underlying aircraft package, A350 variant and simulator version stated by its author.
| Check | What must match | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Aircraft package | The named developer or base aircraft | Different A350 add-ons use different models, texture names and configuration files. |
| Variant | A350-900, A350-1000 or another specified model | Fuselage length, doors, wings and texture mapping can differ. |
| Simulator | Explicit MSFS 2020 support | Do not assume an FSX, Prepar3D or MSFS 2024 repaint is compatible. |
| Aircraft release | Any minimum aircraft version stated in the description | A major aircraft update can make an older repaint display incorrectly. |
A file described only as an “A350 livery” without identifying its required aircraft is a poor choice. Renaming folders or copying textures between unrelated A350 packages does not convert it.
How do I install an A350 livery in MSFS 2020?
Most manually installed A350 liveries are extracted into the MSFS 2020 Community folder, but packages using their own installer should be installed according to the included instructions.
- Extract the download. Do not place the unopened ZIP or other archive in
Community. - Find the actual package folder. A typical package has files such as
manifest.jsonandlayout.jsonnear its top level. - Move that package into Community. Avoid leaving it buried inside an extra wrapper folder.
- Restart the simulator. Select the correct A350 in the aircraft selector, then choose the repaint as a livery; it does not appear as a separate aircraft.
Community-folder locations differ between Microsoft Store, Steam and custom installations. Our complete MSFS 2020 livery installation instructions cover those locations and package structures.
Why does my A350 livery not appear or show pink textures?
A missing or broken repaint usually means the package is installed at the wrong folder depth or was built for a different A350.
- Livery absent from the selector: open the installed folder and check for an unnecessary second folder surrounding the package.
- Only the default paints appear: confirm that the required A350 aircraft is installed and that you selected the matching variant.
- Community add-ons are missing: make sure MSFS 2020 was not launched in Safe Mode, which disables Community content.
- Pink, chequered or blank surfaces: the textures may be incomplete, outdated or mapped for another aircraft package. Re-extract a fresh download and recheck its compatibility description.
- Duplicate entries or loading conflicts: remove older copies of the same repaint rather than keeping several versions under different outer folder names.
