it appears the a330neo models are larger seating capacity than the a350 models (-900) <the -1000 model seating appears smaller compared to actual>.
there is an online article (https://simpleflying.com/airbus-a350-vs-a330neo/) taken from airbus information that states the larger and wider a350 seats more than the a330neo, however, it appears in the sim that isnot the case. a separate article (https://simpleflying.com/boeing-787-vs-the-airbus-a350/) compares the a35k vs b78x seating capacity.
is there a way to have this corrected?
Any reference from manufacturer's docs for these? (to make the updating quicker for me; max certified pax capacity)
see info from airbus site:

It is not only the pax capacity but also MTOW, MZFW, OEW and range that are off with the A350:
A350-900:
- MTOW : 283t
- MZFW : 195.7t
- OEW : ~135t
- design range : 8300nm
- max fuel 166488l
That gives it a max payload around 61t
A350-1000:
- MTOW : 322t
- MZFW : 223t
- OEW : ~147t
- design range : 8900nm
- max fuel : 164000l
That gives it a max payload around 76t

the links above include the updated correct info (seating, range, performance), as well as engine specifications
Thx for the reminder, will add this to my proper to-do list. A350 fuel figures need also checking, they are still v.1 performance model.
(there are other things in line before though)
