Early????, according to him its 12 months late. He just said 30 days, fixing some scenery bugs I think he mentioned.

Sorry my bad. I meant to use the industry term "Early Access" not "Early Release".

Look like it will cost $69,- 

If I saw correctly at 1:00:00. It is a bit blurry.

Stopped the video at another point, bit clearer now. Yep, looks like $69

Brilliant.

I really do prefer my flight simulator to be made by an eccentric genius in a bright shirt rather than a bland multibillion dollar corporation, XP is so organic, looking forward to its release.

Is there an organized list somewhere of the major improvements/additions from XP11 to XP12?

Thanks, I do see that but I'm not interested in video watching, a summary list is much preferred.
