The most stupid thing of the world

[aibiria]

Hi everyone!!

I wrote a couple of weeks ago to Dan, hehehe, guess subject of the email.....
Well here is the question.....

I bought AP from justflight just because our friend Dan is taken long long time lol hahaha with the release..... so I said to myself. Israel
DONT DO IT. DONT BUY IT. Its not gonna be a real cool addon... But after a few pints of larger, hardly thinking of buying it or not I finally
bought it. My recommendation for this addon is, dont do as i did by buying this addon and wait till Dan releases fsp!!

However I am happy with the addon, to be honest, its okay, althought it cost £29.99 .....anyways I saw it and I've been using it for a month,
the idea is good so I am carrying on flying and flying. I am still a junior first officer and my last payslip was £1800 something.... I thing I am
gonna close my business and Im gonna carry on making money by flying for BA ;-)

I've been told by you guys on the forum that fsp will work with any addon for fs2004, How can it be?? I mean, Ive got also Fshotseat and
the way this addon works I don't think it would be compatible with fsp. Okay, okay, i might be talking too much, please no offence.... The
question
is, how fsp works? I mean, how do you start the flight? know that is running inside of the simulator.
But, for example, just a stupid example:

In fshotseat you must open a IFR flight in order to make it work correctly. So then, what do you do? Do you open fsp or....

Are you able to start fsp at any time with no problems at all with none addon!??




That's what i've been thinking about , cause Dan you are confident that this is gonna work properly with any addon but some addons are
very tricky. I don't mind at all if it does or doesnt cause, to be honest, fs passengers is what i've always wanted for flight simulator.
Basically, with Dan's addon we don't need fs hotseat fs environment and all this kind of stuff...

That was it from London!! Sorry for taking this long ;-)

Have guys a great flight and thank you for reading the bible that i just wrote!!

Can't speak for the specific title you mention but Dan has an army of beta testers working on the various features in FsP to ensure the
final quality. And while not wishing to turn this into another FsP vs AP thread there look like being considerable differences between the
two programmes. AP is essentially a tracker device which then links to a spreadsheet, which decides your score and promotion
prospects (a simplistic view but that's the nuts and bolts of it). Just Flight have also made it quite difficult to import third party aircraft
without a great deal of work and doctoring config files. From what I can see, FsP can use any aircraft in your collection with the click of a
button or two.

£29-99? I got AP for £17.99 from Play.com (which is about what it's worth).

I'd like to repost previous comments in this forum...do not talk about how bad other add ons may be. We all know how hard Dan is
working to get FsP released, the people responsible for AP did exactly the same thing and I'm sure they wouldn't appeciate it if you said it
was bad and near worthless. Please keep comments on this forum strictly to FsP and related aviation topics.

Hello!

...you can not compare so easy.....

The biggest advantage of FSP is that there is NO borders for your mind.

You can start as Novice Pilot, limited to light single prop planes like a Chessna 174 and work your way up or you can start with the pocket
full of money and a 747-400.

You can start at any airport of the world with a destination YOU choose...

Personally as example in the Moment I fligh a Rockwell Commander on domestic flights in Thailand like Bangkok -->Hua Hin ->
Chumphon -> Ko Samui -> Phuket....


Greets!

Dan has already said he hasn't come across any add-ons so far that it doesn't work with. Including those such as FSHS and FDC:LIVE!!

Well, lemme tell ya... I just completed a flight using FsP, FSHotSFX, FDC, FS FlightKeeper, Voice Buddy 3.0, Reality XP Flight Line Wx
500, Left Seat Simulations TCAS 791. I've also used this combination with FS2Crew and several different aircraft, payware, freeware and
default. I have yet to find a compatability issue, despite my best efforts.

You will be able to use FsP with any combination of programs you can imagine. I've been trying for quite some time now, and have yet to
be able to break it!

Sorry Steve, I spoke a little bit loud. You are right I've shouln't said that.

No problem, I didn't really want to witness again what happened when this subject came up for discussion previously.
