Hello!
It's really great news to see this software being developed again.
I've bought FsPax back in the days of FS2004. I've used it since then through FSX. It is one of the "must have" add ons (in my opinion) if not for all
other features, for the feature that I really love: random failures. It adds a real uncertainty to your flights that you can't have any other way. I
just love it.
But, as we all know, time marches on and so does our simulator hobby. Prepar3d came to fill the void left when Microsoft abandoned the market and by
now, a significant percentage of us, simmers, are using it. And it's great! Graphics never looked better, frames are smooth, we have lot's of new
features like cockpit shadows, dynamic sea waves, volumetric fog... and general backwards compatibility with most add ons from FSX.
However FsPassengers is still missing! And although our flights now are really enjoyable visually, we lack the uncertainty of a takeoff bird strike,
or a gear failure to keep our skill levels up! I mean... I wouldn't go back to FSX, but I REALLY miss FsPax.
So, Dan... let me just add my voice to those who ask for a Preapr3d version of FsPax. Think about it. Take your time, but please consider it. By now
you have the market for it in terms of simmer numbers and opportunity since no one ever came to fill the gap you left open by not porting your
software over to Prepar3d.
Anyway, sorry for the long post, but it came from the heart. Cheers on your work. I'll be looking for hopefully more good news!
