I have the 767 and like it. But it’s not a pmdg, fslabs, maddog, or majestic level product. Which is probably why I don’t fly it as much as I do those. 

There was a time when I had the attention span and energy to devote to mastering the latest "study level sim." I'm not sure anymore. Our Ukrainian friends have produced a whole line of jetliners, including classics, and I guess I'm familiar with the quirks and don't necessarily want the level of detail others enjoy. My life is full enough of random failures as it is, thank you. There's a "house design style" which makes it easy to go from one airplane to another in their line. They're developing exclusively for P3D now. And I admire their honey badger attitude 🙂

I hear you. I actually typically fly with failures off. But those other products feel much better to me even with failures off.

Our Ukrainian friends . . .

If somebody doubles the price to give a 50% off sale, I would not call them friends.

As a polite gentleman I don't write the word that came into my mind when realizing their unhonest strategy . . .
 

Nevertheless, have a nice weekend

Nothing wrong with them not making it a highly detailed study level sim, only problem is that they put study level sim prices on aircraft that aren't.

I respect the depth of your feeling on this matter, and am happy we both have places where we are allowed to express an opinion. When Captain Sim hands over some of the obscene profits they're making for my public relations services, I'll be happy to continue this thread, or any other. Right now, I'm just a guy who noticed a limited-time sale and passed it along as a courtesy. Others did the math and made some valid criticisms of it. You've expanded the topic to their general pricing policy. If I were interested in getting into that, I would have started a different thread.

Best Wishes, Tim Capps

 

Enough!  Sale ends tomorrow!
