Proofing the new pilot flight report with a huge user's database I received years ago... wow... 1'000'000 Nm !?

I wonder what is the maximum someone have flown with FsP ? I received this one in 2011...

DEV NEWS:

-Things goes well for the silver beta (see above). Testers report a lot of small typo, texts error or things that can have better looking (music's
name for example), but they report also that everything seem solid.

-On my side, as you saw above I add some late new features (sorry), it will take a bit of time, but I think you'll be pleased with those improvements.

I remember years ago when this first came out there was an unlimited demo. The only cripple was that you had to start from KSFO (I think). I suppose
there will be a demo with this version. It took me about an hour after trying the demo to buy the program.

It's still the same system, unlimited but you must start at KSFO.
-New feature, the "can start outside area - please purchase" can teleport your aircraft to ksfo.

Dan
I always used the FsPassenger my brother (who does not use a long time), I love your program, the only reason I keep in FSX is that it is not available for FSX UP, I must buy a new license in my name, for a job like this deserves a lot.

DEV NEWS:

- Good news: All bugs (but one*) are marked as "solved", I'm uploading right now the "final candidate", if the beta tester find nothing
serious, this version will be the final version. Expect 3-4 days. ( time that the testers... well... test )
- A FSX steam beta (build 613) is planned to be released during the next 15-20 days. FsPassengers will also be updated again at this
time. I'll add some stuff that I didn't has the time to do for the actual release.


* The bug that I'm unable to solve is with the addon "Sim physic X" which crash randomly FsX when FsP is installed. I tracked this bug
down to a completely empty FsPassengers DLL that just subclass the FSX windows to get the window's messages. This is a legit
windows procedure. I'll contact the right peoples to get this one solved I cannot do anything on my side. So the first release will have this "bug"
and I'll warn peoples that it may happen with "Sim physic X" activated. (It happen only on steam version)

Apart that, all the testers report a great stability.

Please Dan, how about a little Saturday Surprise for us? Pleaseeeeee

[tcx]

Dear Dan, I Cant belive that My favourite addon finally are going for an
update. Amazing! I Just have a question - will it be possible to make a
charter Company? And also, will it be possible to fly regional flights with
many stops and make some pax to leave the ac and then continiue with the
rest to the final dest? Are we possible to change the airline name after the
airline has start its operation?

[riccardo74]

I don't know if already asked but this 2015 version for Steam edition will support saved flights? Previous FSX version doesn't.
