Do you still buy scenery or aircraft for P3D?

A bit of topic but is FSHUD really that good? Been thinking of getting it for P3dv5.4 but I am wondering if it will work with e.g., injected AJG AI. 

I use it only with it's own traffic injection.

Yes, it works, with both BGL and also AIGFP flightplans.

My honest opinion, wait for the next update for fshud that is supposed to be release in the next few weeks before purchasing.  It still has a lot of issues (traffic separation in air and on ground) and AI planes stuck on taxiways behind the user aircraft and never move again.  The new update is supposed to address these issues.

In  answer to the OP's question....ABSOLUTELY.  P3dv5.4 is one of the best sims I've ever flown, and I've been a simmer since the beginning...the VERY beginning!

Using the registry maneuver I was able to successfully install and run the iFly 747. I may have to acquire the PMDG 777.

I want up-to-date scenery, like Dublin, where the most "decent" scenery is missing the new runway.

Just the other day I picked up ImagineSim's TBPB and WSSS sceneries to open up a few new Concorde routes.

the lack of new Scenery development I expect is going to be an increasing problem as time goes by and airports evolve & the such, but P3D v5 remains a solid Sim and I expect it'll be at least another year or two before I even think about moving to something else.

I'm probably going to buy Pula in Croatia. My first for this new PC. I add all my airports to Google Earth so I can spot places where a new airport would be useful. I searched for Pula P3D and ORBX came back first. Then a version on SimMarket was looked at but that's 10 years old although it has been updated for later versions of P3D. The ORBX one looks good. https://orbxdirect.com/product/ldpl?sqid=aa96878328fe2ff4287a25807c60324e-1

It's hard to find quality airports now I have so many. Plus they have to be in parts of the world I fly so South America is not that attractive.

I have Orbx Pula, it's a nice little airport.

I used it to showcase the PC-12 mods package I put together.

Orbx also have a nice freebee in LWSK Skopje International Airport.

In the end I decided on Split instead. Using Ai Companion to see the number of aircraft movements Split was the busier by far. I also have the PC12. Nice speedy aircraft. 👍

I’ll have a look at Skopje, thanks.

Just picked up YSSY V2 from FlyTampa and NZAA from Flightbeam.  Will probably pick up NZ North/South and Australia V2 from ORBX during their next sale.

Does anyone have any info on Carenado for P3D? I want to buy a bunch of airplanes but haven't seen them on sale on the Carenado website. I don't think Carenado lowered their prices which is a shame given who they're competing with.

Also, Flight1 apparently changed their refund policy but I can't access the link describing the change.
