When the first FSX version emerged it was said the other one wouldn't work with FSX. I contacted the owner, telling him it worked perfectly, so I didn't need buy the upgrade. I received an abusive reply, saying he was the designer and knew what I was saying was not true! Still using it, for IFR flights. He's a bit short on charm.
