flight sim change

Recommended Posts

1st time visit to the pd forum. thinking of changing my  flight sim and have been looking at  p3dv4, I have a reasonable good pc, 64 bit windows 7 at present running fsx and a lot of orbx addons. fed up with ooms, I like to fly as they say low and slow,  ie 172s and the like airport to airport. praticing landings etc    I see there download systems have different prices mainly  $59 & $199 both seem to have the same function.i would like a few comments on which way to go if possible and which price I should pay for the download. all suggestions will be of value to me , plus or minus. I suppose I am a student as I will never get to jets to old now.

It's up to you, the LM P3D EULA page explains who can and can not use the various versions of P3D. Now it is admittedly self-policing, in that LM do not ask you to provide any proof of you meeting the criteria, so to some extent that is down to your honesty, but the P3D licensing descriptions page will tell you all you need to know.

You should also try the free X-Plane 11 demo (64bit) so no OOM's and the ground rendering is more realistic than P3D/FSX

Don't get me wrong, I use both, but X-Plane seems to be better suited to VFR
