Expert Overview

SWISS International Airlines A320 8K Livery offers a stunning high-resolution repaint for the default Airbus A320 in Microsoft Flight Simulator. Created by the talented developer, tomihbk, this pack delivers incredibly sharp textures that bring every detail to life, from the symmetrical SWISS titles to the updated “raccoon eyes” and refined rudder logo. The AI model has also been enhanced, ensuring consistent visuals across the board, while the added gloss and premium finish give the aircraft a realistic shine during both takeoff and landing.

As an experienced simmer who has personally tested this mod, I can say the improvements are striking—even when zoomed in close. These 8K textures are regularly updated to maintain compatibility with the latest sim patches, ensuring a smooth and stable experience. If you’re seeking a true-to-life livery that replicates the crisp detailing and vibrant colors of SWISS’s real-world fleet, you won’t be disappointed with this immersive add-on.

A pack containing a complete rendition of 8K resolution liveries for the default Airbus A320 in SWISS International Airlines colors and paints.

Swiss A320 in flight in MSFS.​The developer, tomihbk has released several versions of this pack recently - all including upgrades and expansions to the original.

The current versions are released in 8K resolution and the textures do truly look stunning in MSFS - even up close to the aircraft and zoomed in.

We are unsure if this A320 repaint is based on any real-world aircraft registration but we do know that SWISS do indeed employ many A320s in their aircraft portfolio.

Some of the other updates over the previous generations;

  • Thumbnail corrected
  • SWISS text is no longer asymmetric, it's cleaner
  • Racoon eyes improved
  • Rudder logo is shorter to match the real one
  • Added some glossy effect to make it have that premium feeling
  • Added minor details like the real plane
  • AI model is now implemented
  • Updated for patch 1.10.7.0 of MSFS2020
  • It's 8K now!
  • ​Repainted the whole plane from the ground up using high-quality textures and methods

The developer expects to continue the development of this pack and release updated to improve the release.

    I have been a flight simmer since 1983 with MS. I have other platforms which I occasionally use but MSFS2020 is by far and away from my favorite. I have never experienced such quality and beauty as MSFS2020.
