Makes very good reading, seems most developers will not be charging for updates.

$199 is the going rate for the kind of licence most people qualify for, isn't it? Looking on the bright side, the pound is getting stronger...

Well at THAT price I think I might just wait a while....
A VERY LONG WHILE.
£19:90 sounds pretty good to me....seeing as how so much of the underlying development costs have already been met and amortised!   And the scenery & aircraft developers are offering FREE upgrades of their own add-ons?
Who is ripping off who??

All the video's I have seen on Utube, I have noticed that the guys are all using free, "mocha's gracious"  as they say the Pro version of Prepared 4.
I have already said that we will not get this version in the same way that we had P3d for i.e.  Academic license that most people would be willing to pay for
I'm guessing that this version will be a little more expensive than the p3d ($199) I reckon on $250. I hope I'm wrong on this Just have to wait and see if I say "Yes" I will buy it or "No" at that price, don't talk such rubbish. :P

Looks like Vpilot works with P3D4.  FSC9 doesn't though

V2. (I think.  The one that we normally use) When connected through the proxy I saw myself on the server.

Early days but some nice changes. 

    Planes bump around with turbulence.  Nice head movements
    New lighting effects.  The landing lights light up the environment rather than just the ground.
    New rain effects - although not as good the new Dovetail.
    Trees look more realistic.
    They've bundled a Conny, Electra and an F16 on top the normal aircraft
   
Crying out for active sky though.

If you were connecting to our server, then you weren't using vPilot v2.

Must be V1 then.  Couldn't get the model matching to work all I saw was lights when connected last Thursday.

All ORBX installed ok
Active sky version now available and working with ASCA cloud program

Just need a plane now.  Hopefully PMDG 737 in the next couple of weeks
