P3D HF3 - Discovered on the site and on SDK

[Airwolf]

Hey everyone,

 

Looks like HF3 is out for P3Dv4 too  - 4.5.14.34698   

 

It is not like I am going to use this version anyway - moving on to v5 with it comes a free Orbx airport in it.  You guys finally achieved insane Sim platform domination.
