Hi,I'm going to switch my license from developer to academic. WoW, P3D just got a whole lot better.

I've got a stack of Commercial Pilot License theory books I have yet to make a start on, I think that counts.

I am using it to teach my girlfriend to fly at home.....so my belief is that I qualify for this licence.Cheers

For $50 bucks, I`m in, I have not participated in Prepar3D yet as I did not like the high cost and do not support subscription type licenses.By the way, when you `get`this program do you download it or is it accessed online.

I started a course tonight on how to save money!Someone chime in when they get it. Maybe it will ask for a student ID or somethingI wonder what kind of answer we would get if we were posting on the P3D forum?Bob

Hi,It's offered as a download in three parts.Part 1 is 3.64GBPart 2 is 3.99 GBPart 3 is 1.99GB

By the way, when you `get`this program do you download it or is it accessed online.

You download it and then you can install it like FSX, but it does access online when you use it to ensure you have a valid subscription or license and will not run if you do not have one.Al

I hope they are not experiencing funding issues, and are looking for a few quick bucks. That might not be good for the community.Sorry guys, I sometimes lean on the negative side.Bob

I'm writing a book on my experiences with the Flight Simulator World, and need it for my 'research' (sic).... :(

Doubtful. I should imagine Lockheed Martin's ability to afford to fund Prepar3d is not in question when they make multi-billion dollar aircraft, weapons systems and stuff like that. Their petty cash tin is probably bigger than P3D's budget lolAl

I agree with that 100%, but Aces was a drop in the bucket too, compared to MS total dollars.BobHere is what I need some help with. There are bits and pieces of info concerning comparisons to FSX and P3D out there, but I was wondering if there was a good post that covers most of what to expect and what not to expect when moving to P3D? i.e. Can all fsx ac be ported? What about weather programs and tweaks?Bob
