A very happy flying and designing 2003From the Dutch FS-site www.worldoffs.com

The best of the new year to you, you have put a great amount of work into your great website.Although I am retired and after upgrading to get 2k2 to perform like I want it to I am tapped out (broke) as to purchasing commercial add-ons. Have to be one of those that take advantage of the freebies but I do wnat to express my deepest appreciation to you folks that put your time into websites that provide all the information and also to the developers who have really made FS worthwhile. Too bad that M$oft does not hire some of these people to teach them how to do things right the first time.HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU AND ALL YOU SIMMERS OUT THERE FROM AN OLD RETIRED RW PILOT THAT SINCERELY ENJOYS THIS PASTTIME.
