November 28, 20214 yr 1 hour ago, Highmike said: I got a couple of planes, although neither of them were on sale. I got the Milviz Corsair, and the Carenado c170, both of which are nice taildraggers. I do not mind the c170 but do tend to prefer the c140. The c140 engine is way loud (maybe AH are modelling the true 1940's experience with no headset ?) but it flies well and has far better ground behaviour than most MSFS taildraggers( a lot of tail draggers in the sim behave on the ground like they have a Duplex Cyclone out of a B29 shoehorned in) . The only sale item that I actually purchased on Black Friday was the G44 Grumman Widgeon which I am happy with. Edited November 28, 20214 yr by Glenn Fitzpatrick
November 28, 20214 yr The issue to me is not the products, its the Marketplace and how installed purchases are often treated/shielded. That and how the policies along with the tightly guarded SDK has/is restricting the products/options available to us.

Same here, I don’t use the sim as much as I’d like, I’m lucky to get even 5 hours a week on the sim, but I couldn’t resist, I was in a sim mood and one purchase lead to another…sheeeesh almost sounds like a small addiction took a hold of me!
