I'm a "dual flyer" and I am happy to be one of them. Using both FSX and FS9 gives me the best of both worlds.

I would really like to enjoy FSX, but as I fly heavies and my specs are not high enough I much prefer to stay with FS9. In the near future with a good rig I may consider a transition, but not until frames are acceptable with add-ons installed.

Don't own FSX; don't plan to buy it anytime soon. FS9 meets all my non-combat flight simming needs, and still has the "wow" factor on many occasions.

I dont own FSX and have no intentions on buying it, ESPECIALLY now that the new MSF has been announced. FS9 Does it for, No need to reinvest in all the add-ons that make MSFS what it is.

What the last two people said!gwillmot

I have both installed, had a lot of fun with X missions and since then haven't touched it for a year. So I guess I'd fall into the FS9 only group?

Love both sims. FS9 for my big iron and FSX for G/A.

I installed FSX the day after it was released here in Sweden. Two days after it was uninstalled and trashed. And I have never looked back. :( :Big Grin:FS9 all the way. :(

As I said in the similar thread in the FSX forum, the results of these polls could be skewed as some of us will have the ability to vote twice as we enjoy both FSes. 
Then why not answer the question correctly in both polls and say your a dual user?

Why have the poll in the first place? I thought we were way past this-unless Walter(Water Mango) is in charge now?

WANTED DEAD OR ALIVE-the best Flight Sim!

I have FSX installed and it runs OK but I rarely use it. I don't know why, but its not entirely due to performance, something with the look of it just isn't quite right, at least default. For me it is still FS9 80% of my flights. The FSX flights are usually GA over photo scenery or ORBX sceneries when Im in that mood. FS9 flights are mostly airliners although I do have and use a lot GA in FS9 still. You could say I am a dual user skewed toward FS9.Regards, Carlos

Hi,You should add this poll to the FSX forum too. I never look to the FSX forum, but there are probably "only FSX forum" visitors that are occasionally using FS9. Is there some control on double or more entries from the same ISP?Hugo
