Microsoft Support for Windows 7
I am posting this to "dispel" some of the myths surrounding the impending Microsoft move to no longer "support" Windows 7. First, Windows 7 will continue to run and work after Microsoft stops supporting it. They just won't be doing any major upgrades or revisions to the operating...
Re: Advice
Will the GTX970 support the new Microsoft Flight Simulator? I am betting it won't. I think its to early to start running out and replacing all our GTX970 Graphics cards. MS2020 is early in the process, and MS isn't going to put themselves outside, forcing everyone to upgrade computers. That just is...

FS9 VATSIM Clients to be Retired
Following is an excerpt from VATSIM's forum regarding VATSIM's stance on FS9 clients. The plan 6 months ago unanimously supported by the BoG was to retire the legacy clients upon Audio for VATSIM launch. The AFV development team lobbied the BoG extremely hard, and did get a stay of execution of FSIN...

Thanks Rob...
Re: License
The "license" of P3D comes in three flavors... Academic, Professional, and Professional Plus. The "academic" package appears to be targeted towards students and has all the rights of the professional package at about half the price. The standard, non-academic entry would be the p...

Simulator Installs Under Windows 10
Windows 10 security is different then older Windows operating systems. This requires that flight simulators, including Microsoft's own group, should be installed "outside the default" installation path of the program. The default path is C:\\Program Files (X86) Without a clear understandin...
