What are the improvements and additions over ASX that makes this product worth a purchase? More specifically, have you managed to get rid of the loss of haze that occasionally occurs in ASX?

Is a replacement to ASX or a add-on? (I have ASX!)
Hi,A brand new weather product, discount given to ASX owners!Thanks!

Cool! I too have just purchased REX but have yet to successfully get it up and running. Any beta testers want to share their thoughts on ASX and REX?

I've been holding off on buying REX, and now that ASA is just around the corner I will purchase ASA instead. It's apparent that your weather simulation is far superior to REX! I guess I will use my FEX textures with ASA.Congratulations!

One question springs to my mind - I see reference to a weather avoidance guage in ASA. Does this mean that it will more accurately depict wx en route than the current version. As has been said a number of times, the current guage is not meant to be a 'weather radar' so I'm wondering what the purpose of the new one will be.Bud

New Vertical Air Simulation TechnologyFor both FS9 and FSX, new realistic up and downdrafts as well as thermals and ridge lift are simulated throughout your flight.
Oh, wow... :( . Aerosoft, get your glider ready ! Now this are news i didn't expect. Looking forward to polish the ridges :(
Does this feature work perfectly in combination with other texture add ons like REX or FEX? Or is it necessary to install the clouds from XGraphics?
I am very sure that it will work just perfect with other environment addons as well.

Cheers

Heiko

Will users have the option to use FSUIPC as the interface in FSX, rather than SimConnect? It still appears FSUIPC has a far superior handle on the FSX wind anomalies.What are the improvements over AS6 when running FS9?RegardsBob ScottColonel, USAF (ret)ATP IMEL Gulfstream II-III-IV-VColorado Springs, CO

Hi Bob,1. No, with FSX the interface is SimConnect.2. There is a beautiful comparison chart at the new web site!Thanks,

Very exciting! I look forward to it coming out, especially for FS9. The PIREP feature looks interesting too, if I understand it correctly.

Hi,ASA FAQ is now pinned to top of the forum.Regards

Hello. I run FS9 and I had a couple questions. Do I understand correctly that AS6.5 has a graphics package, yet the new ASA does not have one, you must also purchase XGraphics? Also, will there be a price drop on AS6.5 once the new ASA is released?Thank you.
