    Nick was a good friend of mine. Many a long and fervent conversation were had. And often! 🙂 Nick called a few weeks ago and said in advance that it was going to be rough, but he wanted to call one more time and try it. It was rough but I'm glad he did. Nick, you were a huge contribution to this thing we call Flightsim.and a lot of times your message was misunderstood. You were brilliant, passionate and did not suffer fools gladly. A man after my own heart. As Vic said "I am the stuff stars are made of" If you understand that statement, then very likely you were a friend of Nicks. They threw the mold away when they made you. I will miss you my friend.
  2. Hi Dave, you could say I am with the company Sure, get with us this way then if you would like one of us to call you we will indeed. Thanks for considering us. We do good work and we support it. And always have. Best Regards
  3. Our ticket system is for both. Inquiries and support. If you leave a ticket, someone will be with you in good time. Nothing is secret, this is how we handle communication initially. Actually, this is the more direct way: http://www.flight1tech.com/WhyFlight1Tech/ContactUs.aspx Best Regards
  4. Dave, You can submit a ticket at: http://tickets.flight1tech.com/ and someone will get back to you. BTW, the price is $1150.00 not 1500.00 Regards
  5. Manny. Please give us the courtesy to define what and what we will do. Please don't assume. You can always ask. Would you like to help test this? Best Regards
  6. Well I must say you seem to be a bit over zealous with your tar and feathers before we even made a statement. You assumed. Basic hardware support will be applied as an update very soon. We needed to get the product out and we figured it would be a nice touch as a free update but if you have your mind made up before allowing us to do what we always do --- support our products properly and throw in a few things along the way. I find it a bit offensive actually. We have some of the best support available in this genre and assuming we are the worst before knowing the facts is one of the reasons you don't see me much in entertainment these days. So if your choice is to go with a vendor that abandoned ship years ago with no support or communication of any kind to his customers. Have at it.
  7. You are right Bert. F1 has been more than timely with the many and numerous changes that have came along between versions where as the aforementioned dev has left people hanging for years with no support or communication. Caveat Emptor
  8. This is not accurate. Sorry, no patch has been released yet.
  9. I am going to make one more response here and it is directly related to louisdecoolste. There is a reason you rarely see me post and | or engage here at Avsim and it is because of "some" prevailing attitudes such as the above post. Our products are worth it, and no one has a gun to anyone's head. Lockheed Martin never gave you a discount because you were an FSX user or a P3D 1.0 user. If you feel you disagree with us and the fact that we have to pay for redevelopment and ongoing support. Then vote with your wallet. This is exactly one reason why I even hesitated to bring this over to P3D. That is all from me. Regards,
  10. in the immortal words of Jim Rhoads, "Buy it and we shall see!"
  11. Our philosophy is the same as it has always been, if you are not using what is the most current version whether it be FSX or P3D then you need to be. P3D has had so many versions out that it is not manageable to support them all.
  12. Sorry for the confusion. I asked Jeff to reword the page and I suspect he will when he gets going (west coast time) The sales page "should" say: Note: P3D and FSX versions are separate products | purchases Flight Simulator X King Air Version 1.3 - Via direct download (362 MB) FSX Version - Download Today! Lockheed Martin's Prepar3D King Air Version 1.3 - Via direct download (362 MB) P3D Version - Download Today! Its "possible" Lets see how this goes...
  13. Thank you Bill, You are correct. If you come into our forums with a civil tone and request, you will be greeted in kind. However, if you enter kicking the door open, you will be not so kindly escorted off premises. Read between the lines.... Best Regards,
  14. Hi Bill, you can contact me directly and I will assist you with an SDK Jim
  15. Hi Tim, A2A has contacted us and we will be assisting them with VC integration in the very near future. Regards Jim
  16. Not true. It is update-able. You have to do what they do in the real world... buy it from garmin.
  17. I am not going anywhere with it. It was just a simple question based on your comment about us using a non default display. Either yours is default based or it isn't. You made two assertions on how we do things and since at least one was incorrect, I just wanted to clarify that. Thats all. However you are correct, there is no default based variable that calls a Glide Path (Glide slope is ILS based) But then again, FS or P3D has never given us everything we need. So we figure out how to do it ourselves.
  18. Are you implying yours is? Not being smart, just asking for clarity sake. Jim
  19. Actually, that is not correct. In those two named products we do indeed use the default FS Autopilot as the AP engine. We do some thinking outside of the box to get things done, but the AP engine is the FSX AP. Regards Jim
  20. Those sounds are from Turbine Sound Studios. First time I have ever heard that about their work. And no one has mentioned anything about brake sensitivity to the extreme you are implying. Sorry you feel the way you do but my guess is this there is something in the loop you have not shared with us as we are very attentive to customer concerns and problems and these two you mention are not something we are hearing from anyone else.
  21. And a new lower price of $39.95 fixed. Competition is a wonderful thing for the consumer. Jim
  22. Welcome to the world of multiple glass displays and FSX. Its a pretty simple concept that seems to elude many... the more you draw, the more it costs. If you want great glass displays in FSX, it doesnt matter if your model is a pogo stick with wings. It is going to cost frames and it is up to the user to back off other settings to make it reasonable. Jim
  23. Ok lets look further. You buy it from us. You want to sell it. EU law says you can do that. OK, so you can. But we will not support it because you are not the original purchaser and support does indeed cost us time and money and we pay people to do support. So what do we do? We lock the support forums down so that only an original purchaser can get support. Which is what has been happening as of late because there is a significant amount of people that pirate the software and come into our forums asking for help. Yes it costs us money. So we will have to apply the same logic to a "second party" sold product. You may sell the software, but we get nothing out of that sale to cover support. This whole ruling only makes it tougher for the end user, not easier. Because we and many others will cover our bases as a result.
  24. Just looking at the obvious Tom. Been around here a long time and its a pattern I recognize. Thanks for staying on top of it.
