We're planning on having all products compatible by release date. As usual, free update for customers.

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! 😆 Do you have a link? Ron Hamilton "95% is half the truth, but most of it is lies, but if you read half of what is written, you'll be okay." __ Honey Boo Boo's Mom

April 9, 20206 yr From Maddog x Forum: "As a bonus, when upgrading the MD-82 base pack to v5, customers that purchased the MD83/MD88 expansion will be able to transfer their MD-83/MD-88 expansion pack license to the new v5 edition for free." I will buy P3D v5 only because this addon. José Luís | Flightsimulator: | MSFS | Add-Ons: | PMDG Douglas DC-6 | PMDG 737-700 | Fenix A320 | Maddog X MD82| FSW CESSNA 414AW CHANCELLOR ||
April 9, 20206 yr I hope 3rd-part visual(modeling/textureing etc..) developer not just get too excited of the performance boost and drop their effort to optmize their product..... I really appreciate some old FS9 secnery with highly optimized modeling trick that still looks great and very low on system, with P3Dv4, many add-ons already going too crazy on polygons......
