December 2, 20178 yr So, should I get myself an early Christmas present? Would it bring my rig to its knees, given that some UK2000 airports lower my FPS in simple aircraft to below 20 on occasion (UK2000 is very FPS friendly imho, plus Manchester & Liverpool are my "local" airports :) ). Over default areas I'm seeing a locked 30 fps, so apart from the UK and big international airport add-ons elsewhere I don't think there'd be a problem. For the most part, having been simming since Zx Spectrum days, I can live with a bit of stutter. I like the idea of COTS... and Betty bringing me a coffee or something to eat during the flights .... and the big radial sounds! i5 950 3.06GHz GTX960 2Gb MSI Nvidia 24Gb RAM Still using HDD no SSDs yet - FSX on second drive Win 7 64bit ultimate Mark Robinson Part-time Ferroequinologist Author of FLIGHT: A near-future short story (ebook available on amazon) I made the baby cry - A2A Simulations L-049 Constellation Sky Simulations MD-11 V2.2 Pilot.

December 2, 20178 yr Author ... plus the fact that you do a rather nifty set of cockpit textures, Paul! OK I'll pull the trigger. Nice marketing reply from you LOL!
