Some A2A Action
Excellent screenshot, sir!

172, Realair or A2A?
Yes, when he released his updated shaders I switched to Dx10 as well. I love VC self shadowing too.

172, Realair or A2A?
That's true, but Dx10 self shadowing requires more or less closed geometry. You have to be careful to avoid gaps in the shadows. A2A C172 will have full Dx10 support with self shadowing in VC though.

Rogue System
New space sim on the Kickstarter: This has to be funded. It's basically hardcore sim in space. Game simulates spacecraft systems (like DCS/BMS), has clickable cockpit, and good potential. And it's a labor of love. Developer learnt programming to make a space sim he wanted to play since he was young. I'm not related to the developer, or the project, but I'd love to see that one funded.

Purchases I regret not being available to purchase
Schneider Trophy addon using FSX racing system.

Purchases I have "not" regretted buying
- FSX itself. I bought it at day one, and despite it's flaws I loved it since the beginning. The best flight sim I have. - VRS F/A-18E SuperBug, together with F-16 from BMS 4.32 it's my favourite combat jet. - ORBX PNW and PFJ. - Ultimate Terrain X Europe. - Dodosim Bell 206. The ultimate helicopter simulation on the PC. - Captain Sim C-130E.
- DX10 Flashing Runways - Experimental Shader

The most advanced and realistic airliner
There are more aircraft with collimated HUD in FSX - VRS F/A-18E, Iris A-10A and F-15E, Aerosoft F-16, and few more. First aircraft with collimated gunsight were A2A warbirds, back in FS9. PMDG is first with true HUD in civilian plane. To be honest I can't stand fixed HUD anymore.

New P3D licensing / PMDG strategy
That would be true few years ago, but today digital distribution is taking the lead. Game stores are full of console, not PC games, and there are not many flight sims among them. It's more a matter of brand recognition, not boxed product on the shelf. I'd say more simmers are recruited on the forums like this one, or even Facebook than in the game stores.

Curvature of the Earth
Of course FSX planes are more expensive. On the other hand planes for RoF are $7.62 for single seaters with beautiful cockpits.Flight is different game than FSX, I don't think that FSX pricing rules apply here. At least for me.
- Outerra, the next FSX?

Impressive new add-on
http://en.wikipedia..../Uncanny_valleyI'm not a big fan of photographic textures, but have to admit, autogen looks very good.

Since the cat is out of the bag ...
Cool, hope to see your sim on my PC one day. Don't have an iOs or WinPhone7 phone/tablet (Android user here), so can't try mobile version, but best wishes to you.

To all the XP-10 haters.
I have these default settings as well, and I use FSX everyday ;)
