  1. Jim, my affiliation with Imaginesim is strictly as an afcad contractor. I don't have any control over their distribution of press copies, so I can't speak to that. I agree that a forum would be great, but it seems that they're providing improved tech support via facebook, for what it's worth.
  2. I feel the need to point this out as another Avsim thread raised an important issue about blogger/reviewer compensation that deserves a larger audience because most consumers, marketers, and bloggers are sometimes ignorant of U.S. federal law and regulation. I happen to be a compensated developer, but my main occupation is practicing in this area of law, so I thought it would be helpful to post this simple PSA. The U.S. FTC has interpreted the Fair Trade Act to require that bloggers must disclose when they receive compensation, including free copies, for a product review. Violations can result in up to a $16,000 penalty per post, depending on many factors such as the offensiveness of the copy; both marketers and reviewers are subject to enforcement. Consumers may also be able to sue individually or as part of a larger class action. Here is a snippet from the linked FTC guidance: I am not making any conclusion about anyone on Avsim or other flightsim sites, developers or commercial publishers. I merely want to point out something that is often misunderstood. Please also do not consider this to be legal advice, as I do not intend this post or any response to form an attorney-client relationship. Speak with a licensed attorney to assess if, whether and how you should disclose. Compliance can be simple; make the appropriate disclosures and everybody benefits.
  3. Looks like they'll pay you to buy the A319/A318.
  4. Can anyone confirm if this can be tweaked to work in P3D v3?
  5. Rabble rabble rabble !lawyers! rabble rabble rabble I would hazard a guess that it has more to do with protecting their trademarks and intellectual property, among other justifiable reasons.
  6. Hi all, I'm considering a build that will upgrade my screens from a single 24" to three monitors. My current card is a GTX680. I'd rather not upgrade my card now if it can be avoided (6 months +). What size screen should I select if I plan to sit 24" from the monitors? Can I still run FSX in fullscreen? Are there any adverse effects to three monitors? Thanks!
  7. MS FSX. I don't remember get any decompile errors that the others have seen. Happens when I start FSX at an airport using SID/STAR/Approach files. Will email you some of my files.
  8. How about Green Bay (shameless self-promotion)? LINK
  9. If it works with GA, I hope it takes a loooong time for certain aircraft. Anyone who has ever pushed a Cirrus back into a crowded hanger using a tractor + bar knows just how annoying that castering nose wheel can be!
  10. Aerosoft News still hasn't published anything on the topic for days now... Maybe they are under an NDA, working in partnership, or lost on a bid.
  11. Maybe some rich flightsimmer passed and his estate purchased the franchse in trust for the community. </dreaming>
  12. I was kinda wondering why aerosoft news hadn't covered the leak...
