Re: Prepar3D V5

Larry, V4 is covered upgrade on your original license. I'm not sure about that... I bought v3 and v4; Lockheed had a window where if you bought v3 and they released v4 a couple of weeks later (I forget the actual parameters but it's on their FAQ), they gave you a break. Incremental v4 - v4.3 - v4.5...

Re: Prepar3D V5

I'm sticking with v4.5 for now; there isn't a compelling case to move to 5. Sloped runways, better looking weather, some new planes... I think there is a case to skip 4.x if you're on 3 but check https://fselite.net/prepar3d-v5-compatibility/ regarding which addons work with v5. By now, I think most...

Re: New and Changed Airports

Abu Dhabi, OMAA There is a runway (16R/34L) missing in the P3D (and probably most MS-based sims).

Which Gate?

Most of you may know that we have cheat sheets for all of our hubs that show where we park. For example, on any of our web pages, click on a hub - i.e., KSFO - and then on the second link (Hub Cheatsheet). To get back to the website, click your browser's back button. All fine and good but what if yo...

Kansai International, RJBB

in P3D/FSx variants, 06L/24R is missing. There are freeware AFCADs on AVSIM to update the airport.

Re: New and Changed Airports

Makassar, Indonesia - WAAA This is part of the Ring of Fire tour...

Runways 03/21 are missing in P3Dv4 and I assume in FS9/FSX/P3Dv1-3; can't vouch for P3Dv5 or MSFS or XPlane.

I did a search in AVSIM and found a group of Indonesian/Salewi airports that includes WAAA.

Re: New and Changed Airports

Quito, Ecuador - SEQM This does not exist in MS/Lockheed based sims; you'll need to download freeware or payware to put an airport where SEQM should be. Freeware option: https://library.avsim.net/download.php?DLID=216945 The install looks daunting but only because the scenery maker gave you a lot o...
