So what is the most popular deal for Black Friday 2013?

Recommended Posts

For those that need the Hawaiian Islands from FSDT I got;

 

Honolulu PHNL

Hawaiian Airports Vol 1. 

      - Lihue PHLI

      - Hilo International PHTO

 

Hawaiian Airports Vol 2

      - Maui PHOG

      - Kona International PHKO

 

All for $43 at PC Aviator. I think is a good deal.

I messed up. That sale is scheduled to start TOMORROW night at midnight, not tonight. I am trying to move that forward to today however.

 

Well Tom, if it is going to last for a week and they are downloads I might just wait 'til the sun comes up to check them out - either morning will do for me.  Not much chance of running out of stock, I guess. -_-

 

Regards,

I'm thinking FSDT YVR is calling my name.

 

Is the discount PC Aviator is adding on checkout on top of sale prices already?

Yes, the additional 10% at PC Aviator is in addition to the sale price, but they have that Hawaiian special that lowers the total. 

 

FSDT has a semi-complicated sale for those that buy 2 or more at the same time at their site.  You just have to keep your Ducks lined up and follow the instructions to the letter - a hard task for a flight simmer, I know.

We just announced the sale. 50% off ALL DCS products in the AVSIM Market Place. Excellent deals if you were waiting to purchase any of these great packages.

Musta been using one of those surplus Russian submarine clocks, eeh?  Midnight, tomorrow midnight, maybe sooner, right now.  Nice countdown.  I like it. :lol:

 

Bottom line is you did good.  Now, how about calling up FlyTampa with a deal for midnight, any midnight?

Ray, all I can say, you must have some pull at high places to have Tom speed up the Avsim sale (lol).  This has been one of the best BF in some time to have so many folks offer sales.   I keep having to change my list on what I plan to buy because there are new sales popping up so often having my list to get  longer and longer..  I first had KPDX, CYVR, GSX, Airbus 320X a few Megascenery,, and now I see Orbx is having a sale, which makes it pretty good with my senior discount,  When I arrive back home off of Thanksgiving vacation tomorrow I plan to put the plastic down on a bunch of FSX stuff. 

 Yep, I am still waiting on FlyTampa, although I did pick up KBUF two weeks ago at Simmarket on sale.

 

Oh, before I forget, Tom, thanks for getting this forum back to the old fashion way.  Just in time for FB , and then Christmas. 

 

Regards,

Excellent deal and an excellent addition to your hangar.

 

Ray

Thinking of getting FeelThere ERJv2 and maybe, quite possibly their E-Jets.

 

The E-Jets really don't wow me in the slightest... so I'm doubting those.

I did the Avsim review on the v2 E-Jets and I thought it was outstanding, especially on those 50% off sales.

Only problem PCA provided the old 1.11 installer and not latest 1.2 and since this is the weekend they're too busy and I can't enjoy my addon.

 

Also found REX Latitude for 7$ !! on fs-pilot store! :)

I have the Cessna Yoke & Pedals and the Multi Panel.  You may want to add the Switch panel one day.  The TPM or the Throttle Quadrant is also a nice addition.  Make sure you use the SPAD drivers instead of the standard Saitek drivers.  You will certainly enjoy this upgrade. It was a night and day update for me. 

 

I am currently using the Saitek x52 controller and combat pedals but I have the other stuff to attach to my full external simulator.  I moved houses a couple of months ago and I am using my old desk type simulator setup until things settle down on the domestic front.

Senior Discount - Absolutely. I love getting the Senior discount on top of the sale prices for the Orbx stuff.  The FlightSim Store and McDonald's are the only two that have a good Seniors program.  I just got my confirmation back that I am indeed registered as a Senior and the discount is automatically applied for qualified purchases.

 

I wish the would extend it to other than Orbx purchases.

Thanks for the advice. I will keep that in mind.

BTW the combo kit Yoke+Pedals comes with 1 throttle quadrant as a kit for 199.

One reason I bought the pro-flight multipanel is that it comes with trim adjusting knob.

If anything, there is just too much on sale right now - hard to narrow it down and make decisions!

 

Pretty much settled on -

 

GSX

CYVR

Oryxsim Canadian Airports

Bronco X

Just Flight's Lightning

 

but then you guys had to go and mention Flight Replica's Super Cubs...

 

And then Tom mentions that there'll be a big sale on one developer each day...

 

Good thing that the Orbx stuff is on sale until Jan 2nd.  I'll need it to pay for all of this!

My best buy for Black Friday so far has been the Justflight DC-6B, which is on for 11.99 versus 29.99 normally. I was hoping to snag a deal on this bird and got rewarded for my patience.
