At AV-sim I read a review about the great addon FSpassengers

http://www.avsim.com/pages/0206/FSP3/FSP3.htm

Daniel polli, who is amongst orbiter spaceflightsim users, known as the most famous "DanSteph" is absolutly a great software designer,
who created the most important orbiter addon of all: "Sound"
(orbiter base is mute!!)

with orbitersound 3.0 he has done a superb job.
Also the DeltaGliderIII ver. 2005, which is a great enhancement to the default "Deltaglider" of orbiter spaceflightsim is a nice one to fly,
with passengers, pressurisation, fuel management, ect.

He reflected his knowledge and skills into MS flightsimulator 2004 with FS Passengers. what is from my opinion the best FS addon I
have ever purchesed.

As a FSpassenger ánd an orbiter spaceflightsim consument, I immediatly noticed the following:

Chapter one, "introduction", Paragraph 3
"Enter Fs Passenger 2004. Daniel Polli, creator of Orbiter..."

I am sure Dan would be flattered by this compliment, but unfortunatly this is very untrue!

I quote this from Dan's own website:
Orbiter is an amazing free 3D Space Simulator written by

"Dr. Martin Schweiger, Ph.D."

I guess Dan would like to see this slobby mistake corrected as mutch as I do, and I hope this mistake will be corrected as soon as
possible!
Sinds I beleve Dr. Martin Schweiger deserves all the credit of the creation of orbiter flightsim, ánd providing it to the public for free!

Echo this review.

Congrats to Dan for at last a AVSIM review.

Needless to say it is a glowing review, and so it should be. This add on has revolutionised my FS experience, and indeed, gives a great
fun reason for booting up and sim flying.

That's a great review, congrats Dan. All that needs correcting is that Dan being creator of Orbiter. But Usty did bring it to their notice.

Usty, could you provide a link to where you posted that on Avsim forum?

Only thing I can disagree with in the review is:

"Other than my nitpick about a repaint utility, absolutely nothing."

FsP has nothing to do with repainting. Leave that up to DXTbmp and Photoshop or PSP and small knowledge of creating an entry in the
aircraft.cfg for it. Most of my planes are repainted as Air Spruce liveries

Other than that I think its an excellent review and granted he did say it was a nitpick. Im just nitpicking the nitpick

Great stuff

[WBHoenig]

Cool!
But it said Dan created Orbiter... that's not true, he just created the very best addons for it!

He could have corrected it to something more significant like "creator of the must have sound addon and the incredible Deltaglider addon for Orbiter"
or something like that.
