Several years ago, I purchased a PC racing simulation (my

Don't feel sorry, Jim, it was a pleasure to read your post! I felt exactly the same after my first session with the SF.260 (still in FS2002), except that I could not recover from the power on stall ;) I had never crashed during takeoff before ... not because I'm such a great pilot, but because most FS planes are so forgiving.Rob Young has created a lot of excellent flight models, but the ones for the SF.260, Super Decathlon and the freeware Cessna 172 addon seem to be the best of the best.VOlker :]

Hi Volker,We're hoping to update the RealAir 172 shortly...when we find the time. We're going to improve stall behaviour and a few other things.Stand By!Rob

Hi JimNo arguments here I,ve just installed the updated sf260 and it feels so nice, the 172 was revelation to me in fs2002.I am also a complete GPL addict and it shows when the physics are right everything else falls into place , 5 years old Still unbeaten.My thanks to Rob all the team for this upgrade, great customer service.CheersJohn Still trying to go Sub 8 minutes at the RING.... say its name with fear :)

You are preaching to the choir. It is one of my favorites and I never get tired of it. Looking forward to getting the Decathalon soon. This what flight simulation is supposed to be.

OK -I bought the SF260 when it first came out for FS2K2. The BESTaircraft I've flown in the sim! I just downloaded the FS2004upgrade for the SF260, but yet need to install it.Sight unseen, I'm going to purchase the Super Decathalon!RealAir is a superior, high quality company.Their work is top notch, bar none!Thanks RealAir, Rob, Sean, and the whole team!!!!!JerryG

All this talk of the SF260 in FS9 has me envious, still waiting for my email from RealAir, but I can wait :-)

Hi Jim,I like racing sims but never bought GP Legends, do you know if it will run on 'modern' OS's and hardware and/or is there something similar out there now?

Hi Vulcan,If you got your upgrade e-mail...fine. If you didn't, we would have definitely sent it by now. If you have changed address or have an e-mail blocker, please un-block and send me an e-mail straight away at [email protected],Rob Young

Thanks Rob.I don't have blocker but with the amount of spam I receive I may have inadvertantly deleted you email.Email on its way to you with purchase details.Thanks for your prompt reply.

HI Vulcan,GP legends runs fine on any recent windows platform, but there is one major patch and a few utilities to add which improves graphics, functionality and performance, plus of course all the brilliant new paintjobs, tracks and other goodies at the main GPL sites.I'm with Jim on this software. It may not be as slick as some of the current F1 sims, but it has bags of atmosphere and marvellous character, and as Jim says the car dynamics are wonderful.Forget the F1 games with cars on rails going round 150 moh corners with barely a drift. In GP legends you can do full on four wheel drifts and control that drift precisely with throttle.Several years after being released it wipes out all the competition hands down.I thoroughly recommend it.Rob Young

VulcanNo problems i,m running GPL on XP pro with a 3 gig p4 and a geforce 4 4400.There is also an opengl driver which really boosts the FPS on lower end systems.As Rob mentioned the new car paint jobs are astounding,so real looking.Best of all is VROC which allows online racing ,thats when the fun really begins, addictive does not describe it.Check this site out its got lots of info and then somehttp://forum.racesimcentral.com/forumdisplay.php?forumid=36CheersJohn
