Based on my experience with FlyTampa (and as a beta tester) I have a feeling that they will take care of their customers. I will contact Martin or Emilios to get an update. KLAS is the first airport and city I'm going to load just to see what kind of fps improvement I get. 

Visually I love FlyTampa.  In fact, I would say they are some of my favorite sceneries.  Boston, Montreal, Vegas, Toronto.  But they are also the toughest on my system.  Throw some bad weather with heavy clouds and the FSLabs together with one of these and my computer gets a huge workout.

I'd love to hear what my friends at AIG have to say. It's going to be hard to not be able to see those beautiful AI models.

I put money on flytampa being last to respond. If they do at all. 

They should be releasing an update to CPH soon, so I guess they won't release to P3Dv4 only. A guess though.

I'm more interested in their current offerings like las vegas, Montreal, Boston, Toronto, Tampa, MDW, buffalo, st. maarten and if they will work in the new one.

I have FlyTampa Amsterdam, Copenhagen, and Corfu installed on my PC, and every one of them is a work of art. Some of the best airport scenery packages available.

My experience with FlyTampa is that it's not possible to register for their forums. I've tried several times and the activation email is never sent.

PMDG just announced that all their addons are already 100% compatible with Prepar3D V5 and just require an installer. There is no charge for this package with the new P3D V5 installer but to mitigate their bandwidth cost because the company that's hosting their servers is really ripping them off, they are charging only 10 cents per MB for re-downloading your addons . Can't say fairer than that! 😆

That's $100 per GB.

You know that there are enough people (way too much!) that will believe that?

Granted there are occasions and circumstances where humour is inappropriate.

This is not one of them.

There never has been, is not now and never will be a compelling reason to stop being funny.

Good news from PMDG.  FSLabs, Majestic, what say you?

I would say, bad timing for such humor.

Maybe Martin was waiting on this for KATL as they have some serious slope on their runways.
