I couldn't agree more as I just had a crash and killed my pilot , I had the feeling I just killed my virtual self hehe.
Congrats Dan with this wonderfull addon , it made me come back to FS2004 after not playing it for almost a year.

I really enjoyed writing that review, and chose to keep it short and to the point - so people could get a quick overview and decide without
wading though too much explaination.

And, having reviewed many FS add-ons now it is indeed "The best FS2004 expansion to date!..."

I may wish to interview Dan by email at some stage for the website (Gaming Headlines) in an article on developing FSPassengers if he
is willing, but know he is busy right now developing solutions to bugs and expanding FSPax, so will wait a while.

Keep up the excellent work!

First thanks for the review of course
about interview I would be glad I'm not THAT busy. Since release I slowed down
because I cannot sustain all the time 15 hours per day of work....

I will contact you shortly about the interview when I have formulated the questions, and got the go ahead from my editor.

My negative comments were based on bugs that you know about - and will fix for sure, the only one I think they mean is the repetitive
cabin announcements - it's not that bad, just a little gripe!

[DanSteph]

Aaaaaahhhh sorry, stupid me... yes of course the bad comments.

Yes I'm working mostly to clear all the litle annoying bugs and inconsistency,
more than adding feature yet.

About added feature so far:
-A new dialog that allow to load fuel per tanks.
-4 kneeboard with any text you want (available even not in FsP flight)
-New dialog that show you at anytime the load manifest.
-abilities to cancel destination with a new hostess sound.
-abilities to have the menu, doc and help text in a different language (will be released first with french)
the file to make menu is an external file editable with notepad so you'll have soon the menu in german
and maybe some other language.

I corrected, cleared and adjusted a lot of small things yet.

About repetitive cabin announcment FsP is completely open on this, there is already some new
crewpack in the download section but I must admit it seem we still wait an excellent work in this domain.
I know that some people work on new pack (at least in french) and it's possible also in german.

I'm too busy yet to organise crewpack but if someone find serious people that can record their voice
a crew pack could be done in two day... (there is tool and doc in the crewpack directory)

As I said in other post (and in the "make voicepack" doc) I'm ready to apply my "speaker effect" on new
voicepack and convert all wav in final 8 bits but people must send me their complete pack with WAV
recorded in 22050 16 bits mono. (otherwise I can't apply the effect) Of course those pack remain property
of their author, anyway I'll not bother to help for "private pack" people must publish them either on the
more download here either on a web site.

About interview I'm ready when you will...

Being someone addicted to Flight Simming, I can honestly say I have no desire to fly in the sim without FSP running (unless doing some
acrobatic, military, or other flying not associated with an up and coming airline)

Great review and wel done Dan,

I don't fly without Fs passnegers, except when checking out a plane to make sure I can fly it before endangering... I mean carry
passengers.
