What a ludicrous and ridiculous statement to make.

Hi Pete, Astounding, a company that is kept artificially afloat after a US$34 million loss and yet you seem to not at all understand the correlation between price, service and profitability. Every single P3Dv4 payware add-on customer expects to receive Upper Class service at a next to nothing purchase cost. Stefan should probably be selling his products for a lot more money to afford to hire a complete first-class support team, yet he can likely only afford to offer to deliver that level of service alone. <<We also don't fly passengers to Glasgow instead of Dusseldorf but that's another topic.... >> I think you mean Edinburgh. 😂 Enjoy your holiday. Thomas

Pete, you're completely clueless about the flightsim software market, how much is expected and how very little small developers like PILOT'S earn. I'd say well over 90% of all customers expect top quality scenery with top level support at a budget price. Thomas

Well said! I think many here forget that most customers buy from Simmarket and other stores instead of supporting the developer directly and buying at the developer's store directly. Simmarket and most stores take a 30% or so cut from the developer for doing nothing more than facilitating a transaction and offering some storage space. Maybe they should be doing more for the funds they get through their shop, like offering support in the future? I mean imagine buying a BMW from a dealership and then contacting BMW directly for support, which is essentially what is happening here, Thomas

Hi Pete, Absolute rubbish, I have all of PILOT'S products other than their LEAM scenery and I've never had any issue with their support. I've had direct email contact with Stefan regarding their weather software, as well as their mesh, never had any issues, he's extremely knowledgeable and always to the point, his support has been top notch at all times. I have friends who also would say nothing bad about PILOT'S products and support. I can fully understand that someone like Urmel, who attempts to lecture a developer, is just rude and a disgrace in trying to publicly shame a company, and continues to do so along with people like you, who seem to have nothing better to do in life. I mean who in their right mind writes to a developer telling them their scenery has some No Go's and then is surprised to not get an answer, then subsequently attempts to discredit the developer here. If it was me, I would have revoked his license and given him a full refund, you really don't need customers like that. Thomas

Hi Gerald, Urmel posted translated text, and it seems badly translated: <<Sorry, that looks cruel, especially with the nonexistent seasons.>> A lot can get lost in translation, especially the subtle nuance of being polite and rude. Urmel is obviously on a mission to anger and upset the developer, as messages like this do nothing positive: <<I think we won't hear anything more from Pilot's. Really bad support from these guys.  They are working on Santiago, another airport without support I think.>> In fact I hope Stefan from PILOT'S is reading this and if he is, I would suggest to Stefan to revoke Urmel's license with a full refund. Nobody needs customers like Urmel who lurk in a forum with a really bad attitude and do nothing positive. In fact I see a lot of people here with a bad attitude and being very disrespectful, the member called tooting is also one of them. Thomas

Hi Gerald, It seems obvious that Urmel wrote an email that wasn't very polite, why else would Stefan say: << Informing us via email that our scenery contains several, in your own words, “No Go’s”, is most certainly the wrong approach. Do you honestly think that the tone and content of your message is conducive to anybody on my team wanting to respond you? I most certainly would not write to a developer with such harshness, our scenery is after all fully functional and has been very well received in the community, with our LEAM Almeria Airport scenery having won a Gold Award at Mutley’s Hangar, and our LEAL Alicante Airport scenery scoring 9.5 out of 10 at FS Elite! >> I can only assume that Urmel displayed the same bad attitude in his email as he seems to display here along with others like Pete. Do you honestly think a developer is going to open a can of worms by advising you which BGL to edit? Thomas

Hi Pete, You're either totally i g n o r a n t or are purposely continuing to bad mouth the developer. Stefan clearly stated in his post that a configuration panel is in the works: <<We also want you to know, that we are currently working on making a scenery configuration panel available.>> What is wrong with you? Thomas

Hello Urmel, In German there is a special word for guys like you - (ain't gonna happen!). There must be nothing more discouraging than having someone like you hammering away at a developer, I honestly detest people like you! PILOT'S have just gotten 10/10 for their Alicante airport, it is a work of art, their Almeria airport is just as exquisite. They have already said that they would offer a configurator, yet you continue with your ridiculous and ill-placed mission to bad mouth them. What exactly are you trying to achieve? Thomas

Thank you, and I just posted an updated version here: https://www.avsim.com/forums/topic/521895-official-panel-configuration-mods/?page=3&tab=comments#comment-3999998

Hi Ryan, It's possible that the Airfoillabs Product Manager checks file integrity when installed as an integrated part of X-Plane, and deletes and replaces files it considers to be "wrong" or old. I have installed the Airfoillabs Product Manager without allowing it to appear in the X-Plane drop-down menu, it can only be run when I call it up through the Win 10 programs list. Cheers, Thomas

Why would you spam this thread with your request, shame on you!

@ryanbatcund Please download the Zip file again, my apologies, one file was missing. Cheers, Thomas

Appreciate the kind words, it was quite hard to get it all setup to not look out of place and fit in correctly with the rest of the gauges. Cheers, Thomas

Hi Frank, Thanks, and yes, all touch screen functionality is fully operable in both the VC integrated 3D-panel, as well as through the single right-click popup 2D-panel. The GTN's 2D-panel additionally has operative dials and DTO button functionality. Cheers, Thomas
