    No doubt MSFS is a great sim, and I will persevere for now, but I am starting to feel my age.............

    I'm starting to feel it too. Most days I feel I'm just about too old for anything. I'll be 80 years old in a few months and about the only thing I really enjoy these days is sex 2-3 times a night.........Doug

    For people who don't live in Italy, or let's say Europe, USA, or Australia, it does matter.

    Two digits prices for people in these areas might be a joke, something very affordable, specially according to the value of your currency but for some people it might be quite different.

    In my case, those two poor digits translate into thousands, yes, thousands, not even hundreds, thousands for just one product.

    For example a product of AUD$26 means for me 12,086.26 my currency.  Does it make sense now? And it's AUD not USD or EUR which is a lot worst.

    Twelve thousand is not money you let go that easy, and if you are interested in buying as many as possible that makes it a bit more complicated as then choosing or priorities come first.

    It's not a joke here Carlos. I live in the USA and price matters very much to me. The latest data I can find shows the average salary in Costa Rica to be CRC 27,395 933. At today's exchange rate that's the equivalent of USD 44,220. The average salary in the United States for the same period was 51,736 USD. So, for many people, AUD 26 is also a lot of money.

  3. I know exactly what you mean Don. Back in February my wife and I drove from San Diego, CA, to Orlando, FL. A really boring 3956 km. And we did it in four days. And we'll never do anything like that again. It took us three months to recover. One thing we did learn though. The scenery in West Texas isn't nearly as bad as people had described it to us. It's much worse. My family moved from Missouri to what is now Tarrant County in Texas back in 1858. And now I know why they never moved any further west :).

  4. Given that most developers feel that the world has moved on and there is no longer a viable market for new P3D products, they could thank us for our years of support by making the existing P3D stuff freeware to all their past P3D customers.
