I have to say MSparks, your writing is very interesting reading. I too love flight simulation. I have over 11,000 hours in x-plane 11 and 15,000 hours in online flying on networks. Why I am in here, I don't know? I will say I did a four year apprenticeship in the trades and learned from the best how get under peoples skin. If you are thinned skin, you will never make in the trades. The first two years you are treated like dogs. But I am not a violent person, but love to run my mouth and I cuss a lot too. LOL that is why I get kicked out of websites. I need to stick to what I am very good at. Flying a airplane in a simulator. And stay out of here. This is the only place now I can advertise my virtual airlines. I have been kicked out everywhere else. I have to behave.

There are other websites to buy aircraft for x-plane. Much better support also.

I have spent money on games and only played them once or twice and deleted them. I wasted more money on programs or add ons for FS9 and FSX that did not do what they said it would or add ons that did not work. Scenery add ons for FS9 and FSX that cause my sim to CTD because of bad files in the scenery. X-plane do not do that. This sim leaves a note, but does not CTD. Flight Simulator creators are in business to make money. As is the developers. Right now MSFS2020 is a money maker for most developers, They hope it will make money. Microsoft and Bill Gates built a big company that knows how to make money. And it looks like they are making a killing on MSFS2020. This all circles around money period. For me, I love flight simulation, I love x-plane 11.50, I own my own VA and I spend 5 to 10 hours a day using x-plane 11.50 and flying. And my stats prove it on my VA website. https://airnevada.org/ Why I am here reading this forum, when I could be doing what I love to do, Flight Simulation!!! A good to fly! See ya.

WOW! This will never end. Comparing Microsoft FS to x-plane. I spent a lot of money on FS9 and FSX add ons. I have spent less than 500 USD on X-plane 11. I do not buy any airport scenery or terrain mesh. I have bought x-plane 11 and some aircraft. The default scenery in x-plane is great. 10 times better than FSX or FS9. I have been using x-plane 11 for just over a year and love it. I will not switch ever again. Long live x-plane.

X-plane is the flight sim of the future. As hard as microsoft tries, it will never take down x-plane. X-plane 11.50 is great! Love it. MSFS2020 is a big money pit.
